New Zealand Racing, 2010-11

[_ed_]

Bulginbaah - 77 starts, 21 wins, 15 seconds, 10 thirds.


9 stakes wins, 7 seconds, 5 thirds.

4 starts in the Foxbridge Plate for 3 wins (2006, 2009, 2010) and a second (2008, beaten a nose).

What a great old horse. A mudder, sure, but a great one.

There's a nasty two-horse spill in this race. Both horses (Who Knows and Irish Colleen) were OK, and Sam Collett kept riding for the rest of the day. Leith Innes was taken for X-rays on his elbow, so it doesn't sound too bad for him either.

But the accident caused a ton of interference to some of the other good runners in the race. You can forget some of them (Vonusti, Lion Tamer, St Germaine) even ran.

We know nothing more about the Mudgway at this stage. It will most likely be a dry track, so all of these horses will perform differently. Then you've got Katie Lee, Keep The Peace, Mufhasa and others going straight to that race without a prep run.

Good news about Leith:

Sounds terribly painful but yeah, he is lucky.

Glad to hear the latest.

Any news on Culminate, Juice or our good Sir?

Culminate is now based in Australia. She's entered in the Cox Plate, but I think she's better at a mile so I hope they stick to races over that distance.

Juice and Sir Slick are both missing from the entries for all the big races this spring. I think Juice has been retired...not sure about Sir. But I think it's safe to say he's done enough!

Oh God I hope so!

... and Juice... you'd think there would have been a headline or something but I probably missed it.

Thanks, ed and very happy to know Culminate is still in training!
