That WAS!

I thought, even though he didn't hit the board, Nashville ran really nicely. Not taking anything away from the glorious winner and thrilled that he won it again but yeah... love them both.

He has to win a race someday!

He's really a beautiful color, isn't he? (Sorry - pretty horsie moment).

Loved your El Chico piece!

Any predictions for the weekend, ed?

I think I will just enjoy watching the stars-to-be in the 1000 Guineas, play Celebrity Miss on top of my ticket(s) in the NZ Cup and hold my breath and hope beyond hope for Soriano (what a wonderful field that is! Wow!) at Tauranga.

So many I'm a fan of running this weekend... g/l to Locket and Carlotta and oh wow Nine Pin! I haven't seen his name lately... assumed he retired.

Will not bother mentioning the other hundred or so.

Soriano!

Thrilled she won and against such a great field. Amazing seeing Jimmy Mac win and oh... El Chico - you champion you!

Beautifully done by Risqué.

Sorry for being quiet for a few days - forgot to mention that I was heading to Australia for the weekend with my partner.

Catching up with all the results and replays now. Risque was fantastic.

Glad you're back and hope it was great!

Very excitng reading the plans for Soriano a few days ago (Auckland Breeders’ Stakes (is that this weekend or next?) , Captain Cook, Zabeel Classic, Herbie Dyke Stakes)!

I loved the way The Soultaker fought back to win the Murdoch Newell. I was so sure Manolo Blahniq would beat him, but he refused!

Caellum was very impressive in the Bowl.

Tavy!
