Well folks, I've got some news for you. I can still run like the wind! I found that out this morning when Micky gave me a slap down the shoulder in my jumpout and let me loose. And, boy, did I go, leaving my two stablemates Get Even and Gomez in my dust, well mud actually. This morning I had another jumpout down the back straight at Matamata and this time I heard the boys saying that it was time for me to have a real burnout and I didn't let them down. I've got this jumping from that gates really sorted now and bounded out first. The other two kept with me for 500m but then Micky pushed my button and I quickly upped the tempo and left them in my wake. I felt nowhere near as puffed as I did a couple of weeks ago so I know I'm getting close to racing fitness. Everyone seemed very pleased with me and there was even a camera crew there today so I pranced off the track to give them a bit of a show. I'm a bit of a show off by nature and that's the first time I've seen the cameras for a while. Chrissie tells me that, as long as everything goes to plan, her and I are off to Brisbane a fortnight today. I've kept a nice sleek coat so that I don't look out of place in the sun over there and there's even talk that I might get to show myself off on a beach while I'm there. Time to dust of the speedos... Catch ya soon, Stanley

Hopefully, go to almost every Ellerslie race day so should be there.

If I know which race he's going to gallop after I'll try to get down to the rail, too far away up in the stands! (as my avatar shows)

Maybe I should take my camera.
