“I think they have the market completely wrong. He is $2.50 and I am $5.50 and I think those odds should be reversed,” he said.
The outspoken Boss talked up the proven quality of Sir Dragonet while putting question marks against the form of the favourite.
“
Hollindale Cup (1800m) in good style, but it was a pretty ordinary race,” he said.
“I (Sir Dragonet) am bringing some of the best form in Australia into the race: he (Zaaki) must take on the big boys at weight-for-age now.”
Boss said he made a mistake by sitting back in a slowly run race when beaten 1.6 lengths in the

Big
Singapore to a land of giants.
He’s under no illusions about where he will fit in or how difficult the task of matching motors with the new giants of the game.
Speaking on
Racing Pulse in Mornington this morning, Brown reminded listeners of his humorously downbeat personality, as he prepared to reignite his local career after 12 years in Singapore.
Brown said he was “a little bit apprehensive, a bit nervous” as he contemplated a training landscape he barely recognised.

Hayes and

Jamie Kah took it in her stride on Saturday when she arrived at
Caulfield to ride six hotpots.
But the idea of following her fiancé
Clayton Douglas over the scary-big obstacles at the Bool – a different story.
Kah the superstar played temporary second fiddle to Douglas last week at the famous
TAB Warrnambool May carnival. She had a handful of rides, for no winners, and seemed comfortable in her supporting role.

Ranvet Stakes at
The son of
Pivotal currently holds a 2-1 head-to-head advantage, having reigned supreme in last year’s edition, and Paul is confident he can extend that margin.
Paul said that the stable would prefer a rain-affected surface. However, she is confident that Addeybb’s class can shine through.
“He loves the cut in the ground he just gets through it so much better, it does make a big difference to him,” Paul told

Lindsay Park, on the outskirts of
Euroa.
Hayes had sold his chunk of the family’s famously successful
Barossa Valley property and taken the brand – as well as the earthmovers – to
Creightons Creek.
Melbourne and
Sydney.
Hayes would continue to lavishly improve the Euroa property but that day up on the hill, it was quite some sight, quite some vision.
There are other great training properties, but probably none like David Hayes’ masterpiece.
Hayes was in a slump at the time, mostly because the Barossa property hadn’t yet been sold and the cost of setting up Euroa had sapped Hayes’ ability to buy well-bred stock.
