Did you back something which was a good thing beaten? Or maybe just turned in an eye-catching run?

Come on, share it with the rest of us, through the 'comments' section below.

RANDWICK – Greg Polson

LIFE LESS ORDINARY – Loved his return second in the Broccolini Handicap (1400m) at Randwick on Saturday. Life Less Ordinary ran the fastest last 600m of the race and was one of only three horses all day to run three sub 11 seconds for each of the 200m splits for the last 600m with the other two Foxplay and Winx. Life Less Ordinary hasn't finished worse than second in his four Australian starts winning at Caulfield first-up over 1800m last April and finish second in his remaining three Australian starts. A winner up to 3218m at Ascot before heading down under a race like the Metropolitan wouldn't seem out of his reach. With a benchmark rating of 92 there are a number of options enroute to the Metropolitan and it will be interesting to see where connections go but expecting Life Less Ordinary to be more than competitive wherever he turns up. Career statistics (20:5-8-0).

CAULFIELD – Cameron Happ

DUSTY JACK – Loved the return of this lightly raced six-year-old son of Written Tycoon. He lost almost two years of his racing career to injury before returning last time in where he strung three races together to tear through the lower grades. He returned over the short 1100m at Caulfield on Saturday, got back to worse than midfield on a track that did play heavily towards those on pace and charged home to get within three lengths on the line in what will turn out a strong form race. Unbeaten second-up and much better suited as he gets over 1200 to 1400m, he can be followed with confidence from now and right through the spring with so many options available. Career statistics (8:4-1-0).

DOOMBEN – Graeme Carey

PINCH PASSION – Maiden that put in a strong effort when stepping up to 1350m and taking on better performed three-year-olds. He was slowly away, settling some six lengths off them to the home turn where he shifted out but was held up before copping a bump at the 200m and shifting in to finish off well near the rail for fourth beaten less than a length. Trained by Rob Heathcote he is on the improve and will be placed to win a maiden shortly. Career statistics (6:0-0-0).

MORPHETTVILLE – Heath Pope

WEATHER CHANNEL –He gave every indication that he will rise to a new level this campaign with an eye-catching effort when hitting the line strongly for second, making up good late ground against on-pace tempo, over an unsuitably sort 1200m. He was placed against Listed company over 1400m last campaign when third-up and I think we'll see the best of him when stepped up to at least 1400m. Expecting further improvement next start, and wouldn't mind if the recent big wet continued as he seems to relish any give in the ground. Career statistics (10:2-1-2).

BELMONT – Aaron Mills

PINZU – Looks in for a big preparation after an enormous first-up run on Saturday. Racing in regular front plates for the first time since May last year, Pinzu found himself spotting a huge start in a strung-out field as the leader went hammer down from the outset. Straightening for home with many lengths to make up Pinzu rocketed to the line to be beaten a half-head in an eye-catching performance. The gelding with the strong career record is effective up to a mile and feature races over the Kalgoorlie round look firmly within range. Career record (16:5-6-2).
