I had to be at the office for the early part of the day working on the weekly paper, but I've been at Ellerslie since just before the Sunline Vase. Some fantastic performances today - Rock Diva was stunning.

She was sensational!

Nice 2nd by Pu$sy O'Reilly in her race (!) and oh... I do so love Thee Auld Floozie's tail.

NICE field for the NZ Stakes on Saturday!

(Good luck and safe home to El Chico in his race).

Thee Auld Floozie surprised me. I didn't think she was quite as good as some of the others and I thought Saavoya would beat her easily, but she proved me wrong! A really strong win from her.

I love the fields for both G1 races on Saturday. Can't wait.

That was GREAT!

SO happy (... and happy I finally got to see it). Love the little tidbits that are included in the race. Bobby? Who knew.

Oh yeah I looked quickly and, had I been playing, would have completely tossed her.

Nice girl!

Have fun today. I would imagine Rising Romance and Marky Mark both win but good luck to Strata Lady and just about every single horse in the NZ Stakes. Would love for Soriano, Shuka or Iamishwara to win (OR RR) but it will be interesting to see how Farm Boy does here (after that last VERY nice race).

Hey if you ever hear anything about Tempelten can you post it? A little surprised not to have seen him at all last month... Thanks!

The NZ Stakes was a hard article to write - so much to cover!
