Bulginbaah is 10. The old bloke has won 21 races. Great old horse. I don't know how I'd feel if he won - in some ways it would be great, but at the same time, a 10yo winning a G1?!

El Primero is the favourite for that 3yo race, although the stable are really high on the first starter Yin Yang Master. I think Gospel is a huge chance.

Big Boy won on debut and then he wasn't far off the winner when 8th in a very good G2 field. Icepin won the race, just ahead of two of the best male 2yos of last season - Jimmy Choux and Cellarmaster.

No problem!

Tomorrow should be great. It's so exciting when it's the day before the first G1 of the season. So many great races ahead.

And this one is often one of the best races of the year. In the last 10 years, all these great horses have won it - Sunline, Miss Potential, Starcraft, Xcellent and Seachange (twice).

KEEP THE PEACE WINS!

Second to Katie Lee in EVERYTHING last year. It's great to see her get her turn. She did win the Oaks as well of course.

Wall Street second, Fritzy Boy third, Bulginbaah fourth, Pennacchio fifth. I'll post a replay soon.

Earlier, the 3yo race was won by 36-1 longshort Di's Boy. He was 14th, 13th and 5th in his first three starts. Maybe he's just figured out what he's meant to do.
