Look out for Katie Lee. They had been talking about the Cox Plate, but I don't think she'll get the 2040m, so I'm happy that they've changed their minds and they're going to go for the fillies and mares races.

I really think she's the best horse we've sent over there since Sunline.

Toorak Toff must be hard to beat in the Golden Rose. His last start win was huge.

Didn't like Crystal Lily's first-up run, but she could improve a lot on that.

I like her so much and can't believe I'm going against her (especially with my favorite jockey) but Hinchinbrook for the win here.

(... and More Joyous, of course)!

Littorio injured and out for the season (poor guy)...

* * *

Good luck to Newport (oh shut up I still like him ) (Patinack Farm Premiers' Cup, Rosehill) and to Here De Angels ( should win the Clamms Seafood Stakes, Caulfield).


$200,000, Group Two, WFA New Zealand Bloodstock Memsie Stakes (1400m) @ Caulfield

No Runner (Barrier) Jockey TAB FIXED ODDS Win Place

9 SHOOT OUT (6) S KATSIDIS 2.70 1.33
12 TYPHOON TRACY (10) L NOLEN 3.10 1.40
8 SO YOU THINK (12) S W ARNOLD 7.50 2.26
2 WHOBEGOTYOU (1) M RODD 9.00 2.56
13 FAINT PERFUME (7) MICHELLE PAYNE 11.00 2.95
10 ZABRASIVE (5) C NEWITT 15.00 3.73
14 VALDEMORO (9) G BOSS 18.00 4.31
4 SIRMIONE (14) M J ZAHRA 41.00 8.80
5 RED RULER (8) STEVEN KING 61.00 12.70
1 MASTER O'REILLY (2) D DUNN 101.00 20.51
7 MOATIZE (4) C D SYMONS 126.00 25.39
6 BUCCELLATI (3) B RAWILLER 126.00 25.39
11 BRIGHTNIGHT (13) J M WINKS 151.00 30.26


I actually think Faint Perfume of Whobegotyou wins here. Tracy wins the next out. Good luck to Red Ruler here... come home safe (don't expect him to hit the board but - just like my boy Black Piranha finally did last season (the one time i didn't bet him damnit!) he will have one great win this season. It just won't be here).

Good ol' Rick Hore Lacy, he may be a mand man, but boy can he train - and he knows when he's got a good one!

He told me back in March that he had a stallion prospect on his hands in the shape of this fella, and so far he looks to be right. He should have won a GR1 as a 2yo, but Cassidy butchered him in Sydney in the Autumn.

How was Reward For Effort allowed to go off at $3.40........ that was buying money!

Probably the biggest win of the day was So You Think, not just the way he won, the fact he was still on the bridle when he went past Typhoon Tracey! Considering he's had minor surgery and a very long spell, that was massive. Big credit goes out to Shoot Out who toughed it out three wide and came home hard, but he's gonna need to find even more improvement if he is going to get past So You Think in the Cox Plate judging by this effort. MASSIVE RUN.

Must also mention Moudre - sublime win at Caulfield today. He couldn't be with a nicer trainer, Ciaron and I had a good chat while I was down at Mt Gambier in March and he told me to watch for this horse - and I've yet to back him!!!!! He looks like a serious Caulfield Cup contender after today's win.

Also, just as an aside, we had a full brother to Hay List born on the farm this morning. A big colt (taking after his brother) with plenty of quality. Early days, but he looks like a good foal.

My head is still spinning from looking at this field.

I know how good Heart of Dreams is but wow... the odds on some of the ones I really like are insane.

Not sure how to play it. Maybe I'll just watch and root for C'est la Guerre, Red Ruler, Monoco boy and about 5 others.

Good luck to anyone playing.

I posted something about my stellar capping on the NZ thread.

Played my boys on top of Heart of Dreams. Hooray!

Oh wait a sec... since Shocking won't win better switch that.

Meanwhile my boy Time Keeper, who owes me sooo much, wins at Randwick and pays huge.

Yea for losing all fuc**ng night long!
