Is the Golden Slipper at the mercy of mighty Military Rose? She donkey-licked the 2YO Magic Millions field at the Gold Coast and now, unbeaten in four runs she'll be given a let-up with the Golden Slipper high on trainer Gillian Heinrich's agenda. Rose's win scuppered bookmakers. She carried a ton of punters' money -- including that of those PPD Club members who follow my Daily Specials selections.

Controversial Stathi Katsidis is back on top thanks to Military Rose. We all know about the ups and downs of the 30yo's riding career. It's littered with misdemeanours and long battles in the stewards' room. SK has a settled family life these days and he's riding in brilliant style. He took the initiative on Rose and it paid off. She blew 'em away.
Biggest flop at the Magic Millions meeting at the Gold Coast? Certainly, O'Lonhro! Sent out a hot fav at 6/4 ($2.50), he was never in the hunt after settling towards the rear of the field in the MM Cup. The race went to Walking Or Dancing. Aided by a dashing Glen Boss ride, Walking Or Dancing ($17) produced a sizzling finale to quickly reel in the leaders and score a two-length win over Zero Rock ($4.20) with Mr Unforgettable ($6) a length back in third place.
