Good luck to Black Mascara and to Sultry Assassin in their respective races today!

(... and, of course, to El Chico @Phar Lap).

Thanks for that - I completely missed that race.

Much quieter day at Ellerslie today but the racing has been so good! Black Mascara, O'Rachael (so brave), He's An Ace and Duchess Kate.

I am amazed Trudy got Black Mascara past Cartell! Even knowing the outcome... at the last possible second it looked impossible. Nice win!

Odds for Friday: http://www.theinformant.co.nz/racing...rslie-features

I probably agree with most of the favourites, but there are some surprisingly big odds too!

Whoa no kidding... I am liking those odds on Celebrity MIss in the City of Auckland Cup, considering Silverdale in the Rich Hill Mile (although I am rooting for Thee Auld Floozie) and especially In Style, my boy Tomorrowland and the one I think might just take it and who I was planning on playing, Barbaric, in the Railway. THAT is insanity.

Exciting stuff. I sure hope we can wager on it here unlike the Boxing Day card (I guess since it was Christmas here they thought only real degenerates would be interested).

I was just about to ask you for these dates... Hoping she goes out a winner.

Poor Amarula... was sorry to read about his setback.

Couple of very small bets and that's that...

Win on Sultan of Swing, Celebrity Miss, Tavy and Mary Quant but oh what to do with Tomorrowland, In Style and Barbaric? Guess I will box them and figure out which to do a small win on and leave it at that.

Happy New Year Ed! Have a great time at Ellerslie and safe home, good horses!

Happy New Year to you too!

Sadly the beautiful weather of the last two weeks is gone and it's very wet and windy this morning.

Luckily all of your picks will handle the wet track.

Scary to see a horse slip in the first race, but apparently it wasn't because of the track conditions.

So, so thrilled for Ryan Mark and his people. They're all so lovely and really deserve it.

Just amazing racing today. It's a shame about the weather, but the best horses have been winning anyway! When you look back at the results in future, you won't even remember how wet it was.

He was brilliant. But I think Sofia Rosa was my favourite win of the day. How on earth did she do that?
