I liked Passing Shot in the Breeders' Stakes until I saw he got such a wide gate! I definitely think the Roger James pair of Tavy and Shees Flawless are good chances.

There isn't much on Anzac Day, surprisingly. There's a minor stakes race at Awapuni, but that's about it.

No, I haven't heard anything about Giant Turtle at all, sorry! I will keep a look out. If I have a spare moment in the next few days I might try calling someone in the stable.

How nice of you and thanks in advance in the event you get to it (I know how busy you must be!).

Where is Celebrity Miss in terms of odds?

Kinda stuck between hoping Lauren Tate repeats and Abidewithme shocks (or even Flying Orca.. been a long time since she won one!). Carlotta won so nicely last out... yeah would like to see one of the more unexpected types who needs a win steal this!

ABIDEWITHME!!!!!

Finally! What a good girl and a beautiful run.

Had a tiny bet but who cares... I had to wait till morning to see who won and just saw the replay and am SO happy (and that Lauren Tate was 2nd).

That was AWESOME!!!!!

Oh man... hope beyond hope that she'll be okay.

It's sounding a bit better now and I think she will be okay. But it's possible she won't race again. What a great career.

I wonder if there's any chance she'll race again? Poor thing but yes an absolutely stellar career.

For all my reading about the Great War the past few years this completely flew over my head.

How ironic and sweet that Abidewithme won on the 25th.

Good luck to Full Monty in his and also to Nothing in the race named for Sir Slick at Te Aroha on Wednesday.
