Re:Re:Is Charles Dickens.....

The best 3yo in the country?

The win was emphatic, the pace and the favourable draw 1 a huge contributing factor.
Yet to be raced on right handed tracks .
Favourite for the 2 bar Guineas which will determine the outcome of the 7.5 bar sales race end January?

See the ante betting is out for the Guineas (on Hollywood), my early fancy, Bright Green is a tasty 16/1;)

IMO the top 3 are:-
Charles Dickens
Thunderstruck
Cousin Casey

What the Dickens?

Needs to prove himself against the best unlike the cousin who would be my first pick at this stage.

Cousin Casey will leave Charles Dickens in the dust , wont even be close

We will see when he meets the cousin

Is there any news on the well being of Dave the King ? Looked a promising sort in the making. He was not persevered with during the race. The stipes report is not helpful. It only states the usual : Jockey felt something, Vet found nothing obvious.

The Cuz has GEARS!!

in my opinion this is definitely the best horse in SA at the moment. The connections can even consider the Kings Plate as an option.But wow this horse is impressive.I think cousin casey is top class but will have his work cut out to beat this one.Also we dont know how good champion warrior is yet.
