Did you like Viva Pataca this past year? He looked really good to me.

Yeah he did look really good..... heartbreaker!
I was warned about him before the MB Derby..... formerly known as Comic Strip and was told watch out as I was rooting for Happee Owner, Hello Pretty, Very Fit (half to Silent Witness), Brilliant One. In other words, half the field.
... And i remember how he blew past them at the end...... very nice.
The Champions and Chater Cup though..... heartbreak. I'm a big Best Gift fan and really... didn't think Viva had a chance against the likes of him or Super Kid.
Best Gift almost got it..... Viva was a bit too good.
Yes, very nice horse who ruined my evening.
Super Combed (3rd in that one) should have a good year as well. And Armada!
Don't know if you've ever heard of him - most haven't - but there's a Class 2 horse (he just made the points at the end of the season - whew!) named Bulldozer. A star of the future..... promise.
Hope you keep your eyes on him.
Still no word on Russian Pearl. Hope he comes back from his (latest) injury, poor thing.
Ten, eleven days till the start of the season? Cannot WAIT!!!
