Well XISCA wa a one horse race as commented,but just look at the way UNLEASHED was ridden.Took a good jump,then was allowed to trail the field by almost 8 lengths hwen they past the post for the first time .At the backstretch jockey made no effort to improve position while b Prakash jockeyed for position between 1600mts to 1400mts where its a down hill at BTC and moved from 2nlast to about 6th place.
At the 1000mts C alford was content to keep unleashed still 2 lengths off the field .Between 800mts to 600mts it was taken wide,came into the home stretch 10 horses wide and then our champion of saturday started riding.The poor UNLEASHED who was on LEASH all thru was left with too much to do and finished 4th.
make no mistake it was ridden that way obviously with some other long distance race in view.The next time UNLEASHED runs over 2000mts or 2400mts(governors cup),it will hack the field.It has a excellent rating and is at a very tidy handicap.
