Yeah, that's always a great day.

It might be worth having a look at the Salver at Ellerslie on Sunday too. It's not a huge race, but the winner last year was some horse called Mongolian Khan.

Have much to catch up on and it will have to wait a couple more days BUT the one thing I did see when glancing at the Informant just now for all of a fraction of a second was the Natuzzi headline.

Ed... if I weren't so rushed and stressed I might be weeping right now. (A tear or two anyway... YOU Know what I mean!). How stunningly miraculous it is that he won! Some days this sport is so completely breathtaking and wonderful... these are the moments that make the sometimes horror of it all balanced out and fine!

More midweek... please let me know which was the greatest of the great race(s) of the weekend if you have time!

Yeah, it was so great to see Natuzzi do that after everything he's been through this year.

Vavasour was so brave under her big weight, and Stolen Dance is a sensation! Eight wins from 12 starts now. What a stunning horse she is.

I'm enjoying the racing at Ellerslie so far today. Hasselhoof was amazing again, Kingsman was VERY nice in the 2yo race and Gravano was really good in his race. The Salver is only an hour away now.

Oh wow I have only looked at Ellerslie so far and that is sensational!

(Hey it's the first time ever I have seen a horsie with my name haha).

Cannot quite remember... is this the swansong for Soriano?
