    Think you will find he is the national or state distributor for makita power tool products...cant recall where i heard that, or who told me, or how drunk i was at the time...but it is from the deep recesses of my memory..and could easily be part of a bar room fable....DON'T QUOTE ME...

    Damien did you get a look at the trial with King Saul ,Lukes Luck and Niblick ?

    Niblicks an interesting proposition was a very nice horse in Vic one of the horses sold at Williams sale paid early 200s i think will be a good chance in the bigger races on his Vic form and Trevs 2 are bloody good horses could be in for a big carnival TA ,Vlahs will be happy

    usually something wrong with them when Lloyd williams sells.
    last run was beaten 14 lengs and hasnt been seen for a year.
    the entourage beat it comfortably, Harvey never touched King saul.

    What about Linton? Seems to be going alright.

    Not true. Like Bob Peters, you find some diamonds in his tried stock, relies on the good ones to keep up demand for the bad ones.

    Hume was bought for $14K or something, won couple hundred. Had 2 or 3 Darwin Cup winners from memory.

    No Dungy I was talking as usual and missed the trial, but I had a brief word with Trevor Andrews who was very happy with Luke's Luck.

    Rio in fact his father had the business before and it was quite succesful, when his father retired the business had the agencies for Makita Power Tools and Ennerpac Hydraulic Tools, there were 2 sons and each son took on an agency each, both now grown into HUGE companys

    from my understanding J T had this yearling picked out quite some time before the sales, is that not correct?

    Quite possibly, but then a lot of people did. That is why it cost so much.

    Petrol Power revs up at first hit out


    from The West

    Top-priced youngster Petrol Power hit the ground running yesterday,
    recording the fastest time when winning the first of two heats for
    new-season two-year-olds.

    Petrol Power ran down fellow high-priced
    youngster Rossa Mak to win by a neck in a slick 24.02sec. over 400m on
    the inside grass at Belmont Park.

    The Snitzel colt was purchased for the top price of $240,000 at the Magic Millions Perth sale last February.

    Snitzel's
    star filly Snitzerland has made a blazing start to her three-year-old
    career, winning the Group 3 San Domenico Stakes (1100m) and Group 2
    Danehill Stakes (1200m) at her two starts after finishing her juvenile
    season with a close second to champion colt Pierro in the Golden Slipper
    (1200m) in April.

    Petrol Power was one of two well-bred youngsters produced by trainer Jim Taylor.

    The other was Blackfriars filly Black Queen, a half-sister to the Queensland Magic Millions 2YO winner Karuta Queen.

    "He
    (Petrol Power) hit the line pretty good," Taylor said. "He'll have
    another trial over 1000m in a couple of weeks and hopefully run in the
    first two-year-old race.

    "Black Queen goes quite good and I was happy how she hit the line. She will be better suited at 1000m in a fortnight.

    "She will likely have the one trial and then go out."

    Black Queen finished fourth to Purist, who won by a half-length from Josie Makes Five and Black Mercurial in 25.32.

    Purist,
    a colt by Magnus, was passed in at the Perth Magic Millions sale for
    $22,500 but was later bought by prominent owner-breeder Alan MacAlister.

    Trainer
    Trevor Andrews unveiled his spring stars for Ascot with WA's
    two-year-old of the year Luke's Luck, WA Guineas winner King Saul and
    newcomer Niblick impressing in their respective heats.

    Luke's
    Luck, the winner of the Karrakatta Plate-WA Sires' double, wore blinkers
    when unextended by Paul Harvey to finish third to the speedy Runnerdal
    over 1000m.

    Niblick, bought by Emile Panossian for $200,000 from
    the Lloyd Williams dispersal sale in Melbourne in March, finished
    strongly to run second to speedster The Entourage.

    King Saul, ridden by Harvey, was a further two lengths behind in third place.

    "Niblick and King Saul weren't out there to be knocked around," Andrews said.
