Great to see Historian win another big one! And Hera and Puccini (half-brother to Sir Slick) both really surprised me with their impressive wins. Brilliant day. The forecast rain stayed away, we had the biggest Boxing Day crowd I've seen at Ellerslie for a few years, and it was just awesome.

The only bad moment was Lucia Valentina's fall in the Guineas, but I can say she is completely fine and Leith just has a sprained wrist.
WOW! I just watched all the replays and whoa ed she was really good! Monster field... I am thrilled for you and for her. Showed she belongs with that crowd!

Beautiful wins by Historian et al (didn't know that about Puccini!) and not quite on the same level, I know, but ummmmm that was really nice seeing Lucky Feather get a win today.
