I think he will round back in and pop a win off at good odds pretty soon.

Who do you think will get Coetzee..... your boy or mine?

I hope yours does. I want Cahill, Prebble, or Dye if at all possible.

Does Cruz use them much?

I believe so..... I know Yip uses Prebble (my personal favorite HK jockey) quite a bit too. It'll be interesting to see if he takes the mount on Country Music or Dave's Best.

As an aside, Space Shuttle, a mediocre boy who I kinda liked, was retired yesterday following the barrier trials.

Damnit. I just watched the barrier trials to see his final run. Space Shuttle reared up at the start (inside the gate).

His name and records were removed.....

I hope he's still with us. Poor baby.

Lucky you..... Prebble on Country Music.

No word yet.....

I've asked a friend on the South China Morning Post to please look into it so will post if I hear anything.

Good luck with Tiber..... I know nothing about pedigree so sorry i can't be of any help.

Oh, and i agree on the name. I went to look up HK name changes to check as so many of them are given new names. He's already been deleted..... not a good feeling.

You may use anything you wish.....
