Miss Andretti

Featured Replies

The flying machine blitzed them down the straight at Flemington today in the half million dollar Age Classic over 1200m. Don't miss her in Hong Kong boys. She is flying and we may get some decent odds about her stacked up against the best sprinters in Asia and the Americas. She'll stalk them and blast past them at the 150m mark just as she did again today to a top line sprinter called Gold Edition.

Don't say you weren't told.

Confirmed - she is taking on the worlds best sprinters at Sha Tin racecourse in Hong Kong in the second week of December. Take the early ante post prices if they look alright lads. Hong Kong racing will suit her down to the ground. Helter skelter up front and she'll sit just off them and blow them away in the last 200m.

Well, I'm a big Miss Andretti fan after last time! Would all of the normal sites have ante-post odds on a race in Hong Kong?

The erudite Traf would know but, as it is apparently a major international sprint featuring horses from Asia, Europe and the Americas (allegedly!), you would think they would be betting on it.

 

The race is confirmed for Sunday December 9th HK time (may be a late Saturday night jobbie for you lads - not sure).

Same day we're at Anfield I think - could be 2 great wins in a day.

 

Now them would be some odds!

Miss Andretti is currently 2/1 2nd favourite with Corals for Saturday's race.

No other bookies have listed their prices yet.

Yep, they are all going mad about the local who has won a few. Please God let em put a stack on him so her odds lengthen then when she blows past him at the furlong pole, we can all get a little excited.

 

It has no bearing on the race in Honkers but she was awarded the Australian racehorse of the Year award on Tuesday.

what does erudite mean please?

Money on Miss Andretti via Coral @ 2/1.

 

Come on you little beaut, same as last time please!

Can I just confirm

 

The race were talking about is the Hong Kong Sprint on 9 December?

 

Only, my mate put it on the wrong race last time

It is.

Tell your "mate" not to make the same mistake.

'learned', 'highly knowledgeable', 'Traffish' :D

Hope she comes up with the goods again for you fine fellows. The FBI are very bullish about her chances and are keen to take on the local champ who, obviously, has certain things to his advantage. She is, however, the best sprinter in the world according to the FBI and many other fine judges.

 

The FBI's one concern was that she'd be running clockwise for the first time. Apparently she has trialled up there and, according to reports, "railed like a greyhound".

 

Looking good and I will be investing half of my profit from the Kings Stand Stakes win.

CAN WE CLEAR SOMET UP HERE, ON THIS THREAD WE HAVE 3 DIFFERENT DATES , JULES SAYS - THE SAME DAY WE ARE AT ANFIELD 2ND DEC , TRAF SAYS THE 9TH DEC BUT ALSO SAYS SATURDAYS RACE WHICH WOULD MEAN THE 8TH DEC, I AINT BEIN LAZY BUT CANT GET ACCESS TO BOOKIES WEBSITES AT WORK TO CHECK WHAT THE ACTUAL DATE OF THE RACE IS .

It's def 9th December Crampo, I got it wrong earlier.

It's def 9th December Crampo, I got it wrong earlier.

BUT DON'T FORGET THAT THEY ARE A GOOD FEW HOURS IN FRONT OF US AS WELL

indeed they are, it's 8 hours difference

As Traf could confirm, Miss Andrettis track gallop at Sha Tin today 'had regular trackwork watchers agog'. Apparently trialled brilliantly. Odds on down here now and you lucky blighters are getting 2-1?

 

I can't wait to watch this race. The local sprinter who is close to joint favourite has an imposing C & D record. Wonder if he's ever had windburn from a passing mare before? :D

2/1 is disappearing fast.

Now 7/4 jt fav in places.

Less of the Skippy you dyslexic fooker. I am expecting her to win as she is the best sprinter in the world. I see she has received the visitors barrier draw (12) which is disappointing. Good enough to overcome anything is this one. To quote Newitt (the jockey) " She has the eye of the tiger, this one"

 

If the pattern is as per the usual HK racing - helter skelter up front, I expect her to take a sit, improve her position in mid race to 4th or 5th and then poleaxe them at about the 150 / 200m mark.

 

If she fails to win, it will be by an inch and it will be bad luck which has beaten her. Expecting you all to be celebrating though :good:
