Beauty Flash was impressive!

And I had Just Fantastic in the race after that. Thought he had it, but Real Supreme just got his head in front at the line!

Oh I didn't even know who had won!

I just watched... very nice!

I loved the way Callen reached over to Mosse afterwards.

It's a little sad to see the members of the old guard passing the torch, isn't it?

Good for Beauty Flash though! Should I know this trainers name ed?

Was surprised by the great showing by Sunny King. Where did that come from?

Hope Thumbs Up is okay.

Racing Incident Report

THUMBS UP was withdrawn on 29.1.11 by order of the Stewards acting on veterinary advice (lame right hind). Before being allowed to race again, THUMBS UP will be subjected to an official veterinary examination. Passing the 1400 Metres, SUNNY KING got its head up when being steadied away from the heels of CHATER WAY. For some distance approaching and passing the 1200 Metres and again near the 1000 Metres, SPECIAL DAYS raced tight inside IRIAN (B Doyle) which shifted in. B Doyle was severely reprimanded and advised that he must at all times ensure that his fellow riders have comfortable racing room. VIVA PATACA got its head up when being steadied away from the heels of SPECIAL DAYS near the 1000 Metres. For some distance approaching and passing the 1000 Metres, SIGHT WINNER was awkwardly placed close to the heels of BEAUTY FLASH. VIVA PATACA was held up for clear running in the early part of the Straight and then passing the 200 Metres was again held up and unable to obtain clear running for the remainder of the race. Consequently VIVA PATACA was not able to be properly tested in the Straight. D Whyte (CHATER WAY) dropped his whip near the 250 Metres. Over the concluding stages, IRIAN raced in restricted room between BEAUTY FLASH and SUNNY KING, both of which shifted slight ground. Throughout the race, YOUNG ELITE travelled wide and without cover and in the Straight gave ground. A veterinary inspection of YOUNG ELITE after the race revealed that the horse had bled from both nostrils. When questioned, D Whyte stated that he had been instructed to ride CHATER WAY in midfield or slightly behind midfield if possible. He said it was felt that the horse had not been finishing off its races when being ridden in forward positions at its most recent starts and it was therefore hoped that if the horse were able to be ridden more conservatively today, it would be able to close off more effectively. He said however in the Straight CHATER WAY got its head on the side and hung out away from runners to its inside and was disappointing in its failure to finish off the race. After the race, the Veterinary Officer reported that CHATER WAY had lost its left front plate and that FELLOWSHIP had sustained a cut to the right front cannon. IRIAN, BEAUTY FLASH and SUNNY KING were sent for sampling.

Young Elite bled...

Three times and you're out so mandatory retirement.

Probably not, because I don't either!

He was only 6th from 8 (batch 7) but "okay without being asked"... does that mean they just wanted him to have this run?

I haven't watched it yet.

Oh figured I'd check something and this is what i found...

Vet Records
Date Details Passed Date
13/01/2011 Sore right fore tendon sheath (flexor tendons injury). 28/01/2011

KInda wish Ho would give the mount to Callan next time or someone aside from Lai and Ho. So rides him in trackwork a lot... maybe let him have the mount?

Ah well...

Yeah fantastic field this weekend!

Good luck to Sacred Kingdom and Brett!
