Taupo on Wednesday, one of my favourite days of the year. Hardly any prize money, but all the good horses on their way to Hawke's Bay go there because the track is always dry. It will be again this year.
 Look at this field for only $9500. 1 1023X Keepa Cruisin 4 90 59.0 Stephen McKee, Ardmore 2 1124X Mufhasa 7 88 58.0 Stephen McKee, Ardmore 3 4350X Run Like Al 3 88 58.0 Michael Coleman Mike & Paul Moroney, Matamata 4 8026X Insouciant 6 85 56.5 Opie Bosson Mark Walker, Matamata-Rangiora 5 0116X Lightning McQueen 2 75 54.0 Peter McKay, Matamata 6 X7866 Nosmo King 1 75 54.0 Kenny & Lisa Rae, Ruakaka 7 3190X Onmepatmalone 5 73 54.0 Steven Pinfold, Byerley Park Two G1 winners, Keepa Cruisin and Insouciant! The day also always has some of the best 3yos of the season, for example last year had 1000 Guineas winner Insouciant and also the best 3yo of last season Alamosa winning races. Might be the same this year, but I can't tell you who yet. So many on debut. My plan is to head straight home from Law school, grab a beer and turn on the TV.

Keepa Cruisin is Seachange's little half-sister, who ran second in the 1000 Guineas and then won the Levin Classic - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb_PmX1DsY8
Insouciant won the 1000 Guineas - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71T9pXRwY1s

Nice sprinter Mufhasa won that Taupo race, excellent performance. Run Like Al was 2nd, Keepa Cruisin 3rd and Insouciant 4th. It looked like those two girls weren't quite fully fit, they'll improve with the run.
Saw some nice 3yos there today. Have a look at this girl, Amaryllis on debut: http://www.dailymotion.com/classicco...maryllis_sport  And this gelding, Sensible Sam: http://www.dailymotion.com/classicco...ible-sam_sport Very nice.
