New thread!

The winners of the 2000 Guineas, 1000 Guineas, Derby and Oaks turned three today. Happy birthday to them, whoever they are, and all the other horses in NZ!

It's the G3 Winter Cup at Riccarton tomorrow, and the Foxbridge Plate is only two weeks away - Veyron, Recite and Spellbinder, among others, are aiming for that.

Yea the one and only thread I absolutely cannot wait for every year!!!

Happy birthday, good horsies.

Good luck to I Am Sam in the Winter Cup. I don't think he'll win (2nd or 3rd?) but whatever!

No luck for Sam today - too much weight on his back, I think.

Karla did it again! First repeat winner since 1990, and only the third mare in the history of the race to win it twice.

Whew, busy day of work today. But I enjoyed it, and it's only going to get better as the racing gets more exciting!

I didn't get to go to those, no! My boss lives near the Matamata track, so he went along to see them.

But I'll definitely be at the Foxbridge Plate at Te Rapa on Saturday! That's an amazing field. Veyron, Viadana, I Do, Xanadu, Pure Champion, Costume, Soriano, Postmans Daughter, Spellbinder...
