When a trainer starts talking up last year's star by saying he's 'bigger and better' after a spell...frankly, I start to worry! It often happens that such horses are miserable failures. Alcopop's trainer Jake Stephens has jumped on the 'bigger and better' bandwaggon. The stayer had his first public hitout of his latest campaign on Sunday, prompting an enthusiastic JS to talk up the future. Alcopop galloped between races at Strathalbyn and is being set for a WFA assault on the Sydney autumn carnival, starting with the Apollo Stakes and culminating with the BMW. JS says: 'He is more educated this time and is definitely a better horse.' Well, let's hope so.
