I think I have decided on my HOTY vote.

I would imagine that double sealed the deal...

Yeah, exactly.

It's a shame VSB is going to be in all the same categories as Mongolian Khan. VSB has been fantastic too and deserves recognition, but I don't think he'll get any of the awards.

It is a shame and yeah... was thinking about that earlier. Phenomenal couple of horses and BOTH names deserve their place in racing history.

Completely behind on what's going on this weekend... I guess I will just wait for results at this point and approach it all backwards and after the fact!

There's not much happening in NZ today. A couple of minor stakes races at Riccarton.

But Savaria's in the Oaks in Sydney and Diademe and Sports Illustrated are in the Queen of the Turf.

Can't wait for next Saturday. Back at Ellerslie for the Easter Handicap (the last G1 race of the NZ season ) and a couple of other nice stakes races.

That's impossible! Already?

Any idea who is pointed to it?

Definitely Vespa, Addictive Habit, Mighty Solomon and Chintz. Possibly Allez Eagle. Noms tomorrow so we'll have a better idea then.
