That's exactly right. And he was 2nd in a photo the other time.

But I'm sorry to say it wasn't his day today.

Happy for the winner. He's a really good horse who never gets the credit he deserves. That's 13 wins for him - 9 in stakes races!

I think you'll like these ones more...

The Ana and Antonio show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC-QeuZleE0

And is this a new star? 6 starts for 4 wins. This was her first stakes race:

As for Atapi - I believe he's been retired.

Whoa that was really really impressive! Thanks for including this one!

Happy to know that he's probably retired. I'd say he's done enough.

THanks ed. This was another time I just wanted to hear results from you instead of trying to find them cause it's much more fun and man I am still just floored cause i thought you'd say well yeah Upsala... maybe another nice barrier trial but that's about it.

Stunned and just very happy and once again, what a joy to watch the amazing Sir Slick even if...

Ana just got her nose in front on the line. But that was a great effort by Antonio! He really impressed me.

Lovely field! I think Banchee and Keep The Peace will be hard to beat. It'll be interesting to see how Guiseppina goes in her first try at a G1.

But this is the race NZers are most interested in this Saturday...

Runner Win Place

JIMMY CHOUX 2.05 1.21
SHAMROCKER 7.00 2.20
RETRIEVE 7.50 2.30
KING GLADIATOR 13.00 3.40
I THINK I DO 15.00 3.80
LIGHT BRIGADE 15.00 3.80
MASQUERADER 17.00 4.20
PRAECIDO 21.00 5.00
HE'S REMARKABLE 26.00 6.00
ANACHEEVA 26.00 6.00
DOMESKY 41.00 9.00
SHADOWOFEXCELLENCE 81.00 17.00
DUCARIUS 301.00 61.00
