Who wins tomorrow's NZ Trotting Free-For-All may come down to which version of Bolt For Brilliance turns up.
The two-time Harness Jewels winner is the best horse in tomorrow's sprint but has two very different personalities: the get up and go, I can trot a half (800m) in 54 seconds Bolt For Brilliance and the "this is all a bit boring I'd rather be somewhere else" Bolt For Brilliance.
Luckily for punters the second BFB doesn't rear his head very often, usually early in campaigns or when he is allowed to relax too much early, disengages and gets stuck in second gear.
The racey one can win today because that version of Bolt For Brilliance can show decent gate speed which, coupled with respect, could be enough to see him head to the marker pegs early in the group one trot and then trail loveable leader Majestic Man.
Sitting in the trail behind Majestic Man the 100 per cent Bolt For Brilliance would win.
