I think the date changes every year. People are encouraged to randomly hug redheads. An act of kindness to brighten the lives of people who are so often ridiculed.

NZ's bringing out the big guns on Cox Plate day!

I'd love to see Wall Street win the big one, but I just don't think he can beat SYT at that distance. I believe he could beat him at a mile, but I think the last 440m will take its toll and take the venom out of his amazing finishing kick.

If the track's a dead 4 or better, Katie should win the Tesio. She has a big weight to carry for a tiny little horse, but I don't think the others are really in her class. Look out.

Does some nice person wanna post the fields for those of us who have been out of commission?

[my miss storm cat]

THANK YOU.

(For everything).

[magic_idol]

Sorry been very busy this week with my Youngster Magic Gonski,
he's out spelling now so outher than gardening i can get into the serious buisness of picking winners.
Not much Value today so i will be Boxing a Tri.
SO YOU THINK
MORE JOYOUS
ZIPPING
I was gonna have a tipple on Poor Judge if the track was heavy but it's rated at Dead 4 so not gonna touch it
But might have a punt on Hot Danish on the nose @ $3.60 is worth a look.
Great Punting all .
& i'll get back to my friggin gardening

[my miss storm cat]

Man every time I think I have my plays straight I change my mind.

Trying hard to put sentiment aside here.

I think the pressure will be on More Joyous...

Will probably just play a few tris using Whobegotyou and Wall Street on top of Trusting, Zipping, Leun Yat Forever and hope for a price somehow (and yes I know this is probable suicide).

Not spending a lot here... a joy to watch this one so it's all good tonight.

Oh and good luck to my Mental boy at Rosehill. Rothesay (sp) is at 6/4? C'mon let's not get carried away here.

You go, Mentality.
