Jeez! Sacred Star! I wasn't expecting that but he was absolutely sensational today.

![]() I love Tomorrowland and I know there are huge things in store for him this year but wow...what an incredible win that was! Happily surprised by Designated Driver... had completely written her off. Very nice 2nd. |

Fun reading about the jocks coming in for the Karaka Million... it'll be awesome to see Tommy with Bella Court although, if it were me, I would keep MdP on her and give Tommy Platinum Express but what do I know?!
![]() Hope The Justice League makes it in. Need to go back and watch Maritimo as I was surprised to read, in your piece, that he's the favorite. I would have thought Bella Court and Strata Lady in that order. Exciting times! edit - Just read about the three late entries for the Thorndon Mile... yay! Soriano! ![]() Last edited by my miss storm cat : 01-19-2015 at 11:06 AM. |

I was wondering about the Berry/MdP mounts too. I'm not sure if Mark got to choose? Interesting decision if he did!
I have Saturday off this week, but I'll still be watching all the Trentham races closely. ![]() I'm on duty for the Karaka Million day on Sunday. Exciting field for that, and I can't wait to see VSB again in the Mile. |

Very nice field for the Stayers Cup. I'm a sucker for races like these. I'm rooting for Stratocaster in the MIle BUT not sure if he can beat VSB, Tavy et al. Whoa the Karaka Million! Good Lord that is a GREAT field! On a smaller note, I was watching some of Graphic's replays and I really do think he'll win the Wellington Cup again. (That was such a great one last year, wasn't it? Skysoblue hanging on after leading the whole way and a NICE run from good old Yin Yang Master with MdP up no less... names like Guns at Five and Annie Higgins... what a nice field that was.) Anyway yeah I do think he'll pull one out of nowhere and remember how to win. IF he doesn't am rooting for Ransomed although it would be nice for Templeten or Our Bee Jay since neither wins much and both were in it last year. ![]() * * * edit - A really fun replay is Templetens first win (Nov. 13, 11) where he absolutely flies past Zonza! I think the race caller was really surprised. ![]() Last edited by my miss storm cat : 01-21-2015 at 11:17 AM. |

![]() Oh yes please! ![]() I am shocked Graphic is the favorite for the Wellington Cup! I mean a lot of these odds are completely crazy but that truly surprises me. Love Soriano so very much but I do not expect her to win so will have to look around a little... maybe Abidewithme (?). I do think Rock Diva wins the Stayers Cup but oh how I would love to see that field in person. ![]() Thanks for the odds! |
