New Zealand Racing 2013-14

[_ed_]

Even three days later, I’m still having trouble believing what I saw in the Oaks! I didn’t rate Miss Mossman very highly at all, but she came out and destroyed them! Three and a half lengths, and the fastest Oaks since 2004. Just stunning! Incredible.

I had a look back through her past races. There are a lot of really bad races there, but a few good ones too – she won her maiden by nine and a half lengths, and her other win was by more than three. So when she’s good, she’s really good.

Just hope she decides to be good a bit more often from now on. Cos there’s no doubt she was the best horse on Saturday. No excuses for any of the others. She was just better than them. So I hope it’s not a fluke!
