Aust 1/3 in the early betting so maybe not expecting big turn out?

I don't like the way they card horses overseas. Antepost is one thing but Kingston Hill nominated for the Irish Champion, c'mon?

Having just watched the race ABC Grade 1 catch up wow forgive me if I thought Australia had this race home and hosed. The Grey Gatsby was nearly 3 lengths last coming into the straight. On BBC Joseph O'Brien has come under stick for taking Australia wide and hitting the front too soon.

I thought he rode the horse perfect , sat off a fast pace and went clear

Was just outstayed by a better horse IMO

The winner also ran wide and made it's run at a similar time
