We've got Stewy as the favourite, Myers on the rise, Ollie an unknown quantity in terms of fitness, a few other contenders in Jye Edwards, Jesse Hunt...
We know Stewy won't sit and kick so it's probably going to be a 3:32 race? If Myers can be there with 200 to go I'd back him.
Thoughts?
myers favourite despite recent quick 1k from stewy.
people may not think much of being "Australian champion" but it happens to be a very big place. You could fit the entire USA into it, and maybe Texas too.
Always a great meet to watch with some of the world's best commentary.... go hard my tasman neighbors. Aussie aussie aussie kiwi kiwi kiwi oi oi oi !!!

Is the Texas part near Wagga Wagga ? mmmmmm, might grab some Outback Steakhouse. When I went to Australia, I was being driven to my hotel and I thought I saw me first kangaroo out the cab window...but it was just a grey-hound taking a dump.
Oliver Hoare hasn’t been racing at all this year. That’s #badforthesport, what is he hiding? Shouldn’t he be racing more often? It’s like he’s being coached by Jerry

Oliver Hoare has been too busy looking in to changing his surname, to race. Maybe he could go with Oliver Newton John. That name is available. Lest we forget, Livvy putting her faith in her retarded goateed tenth husband and his medicinal marijuana fantasies. Now she's in heaven with Bobby Lougayess from the bridge in Saturday Night Fever - and the goateed-one is left with the boobie-prize: Chloe Lattanzi-Newton John. Hopefully he can get some cash by selling Gene Kelly's Xanada hair-piece on eBay and then get Chloe a recording contact. Maybe a duet with her dad Matt. ' Let's get Physical '24 '
I believe the National Champion gets automatic selection if they have the time as well. Reason enough to race. Have any Australian male marathon runners got a qualifier?
Bringing this thread back on track, haven't listened to the Pod, but I think the written form here has some interesting points:
Someone alluded to the 85% Olli point. To me, Stewy will make it reasonably fast, and we know he struggles to finish. I have almost no doubt Myers can kick past him even if he doesn't run the smartest/shortest line. But the winner of the race could be him, Hoare, or someone else. In a likely 3:34-5 race if you're in good form (3:32 shape) and get a perfect ride you can finish really well. And that applies for a bunch of guys with Antsey and Hunt being the ones that jump out to me as dark horses to win.
