I know there are three other very good fillies in this race, and I know that saying this could make me look really dumb, but I really think the only question here is how far Bounding wins by. And I can't wait to see it.

Another really fun trip to Christchurch. I've loved it. But I can't figure out how I feel about that dramatic 1000 Guineas. Bounding unlucky? Or was Costa too good today? I'll have to watch the replay when I get home.

I just watched the replay and was wondering... what did the announcer mean when he implied that there had been some delay to the start?
Great race and wow what a nice (and surprising!) win! Hope you had a lot of fun.  My pick was Spellbinder... love Bounding and she is fantastic but I would have played Spellbinder on top had I been there (or posted in time). I hope you have a photo or two you don't mind sharing!

The delay was a bit scary! Bounding lashed out in her gate and got her leg stuck. They took a while to get her out of her gate, then the vet had to make sure she was OK to run.
No photos this time, unfortunately. It was a really hot day, and they were already taking Costa Viva away for a drink and a shower by the time I made it to the winners' circle.

The G2 Auckland Breeders' Stakes, which looks like being a really strong field - Final Touch, Lady Kipling, Diademe, Miss Pelear, Waterford. And the G2 Counties Cup, with More Than Sacred and a few other nice horses in it.
Also, today was a big day - the first stage of entries for this race: http://www.nzracing.co.nz/RaceInfo/4...-Overview.aspx I've heard of maybe a quarter of those! Can't wait to meet the others over the next few weeks and months.
