Yeah I was pretty surprised to see him go off at such low odds but great to see him win. 2 in a row now. He likes being with Size but gotta give Almond Lee credit too... he's had some problems and Lee is / was really patient.

Cheers to Mahtani, who ownes Growl too.

Good luck to Amo in R 6 tomorrow.... 9 years old and hasn't won lately. A bit of of buzz on Kingifly... hope he beats him home. Nunes up for the first time but aaaah well we can't have everything go right in life now, can we?

Nice field in R7... Diamond Supreme and Trulli (Brettie up... swoon) in either order/ Tiger Ridge (oh yes he can..... like this one much better than Wine Win or Cassa, even if it's been a while).

Come home safe, kids.

Well I really don't give a crap about this kinda thing but according to the SCMP even George Clooney was there to see Amo win.

(I mean he was there but hey, he must have seen that race.....)
