New Zealand Racing, 2014-15

Thee Auld Floozie surprised me. I didn't think she was quite as good as some of the others and I thought Saavoya would beat her easily, but she proved me wrong! A really strong win from her.

I love the fields for both G1 races on Saturday. Can't wait.

That was GREAT!

SO happy (... and happy I finally got to see it). Love the little tidbits that are included in the race. Bobby? Who knew.

Oh yeah I looked quickly and, had I been playing, would have completely tossed her.

Nice girl!

Have fun today. I would imagine Rising Romance and Marky Mark both win but good luck to Strata Lady and just about every single horse in the NZ Stakes. Would love for Soriano, Shuka or Iamishwara to win (OR RR) but it will be interesting to see how Farm Boy does here (after that last VERY nice race).

Hey if you ever hear anything about Tempelten can you post it? A little surprised not to have seen him at all last month... Thanks!

The NZ Stakes was a hard article to write - so much to cover!

Really well done. You detailed everything with respect and compassion yet still wrote about the race...

For me a good race caller is one where I could close my eyes and see the race... it's complete, you know? So your piece was like that. One could not know anything about what had happened but read it and know the entire story.

Well done!

Have not yet watched any replays but pretty surprised that Marky Mark was off the board!

Happy to read the update on The Justice League this am!

Whoa, the noms for the Oaks look fantastic! Cannot wait!

I was looking at the fields for tomorrow (...Hawera?) and there is only one name I know (Steel Rose). I honestly don't remember ever seeing this name!
