He's extraordinary and he didn't have to win to show that. He already has.
One of the most exciting horses in training... I hope my friends in NZ are proud cause they should be. He's not going to win them all and the occassional loss is overshadowed by what he's already achieved. Besides winning he's brought so much attention to a part of the racing world that never gets enough of it... a big star from a small country he's larger than life and I think maybe his loss makes him even more beloved to some. Cheers to Black Caviar for another breathtaking win but cheers to Jimmy too.

Very nicely said. Thanks.
It was really disappointing at first when Jonathan started asking Jimmy for the effort and that sprint we know so well just wasn't there. But it sounds like he's had enough of racing for a while - he's been in training since July, and he had his first race of this campaign in September. The tank was empty. They're not machines. He's done so much this season, it's not surprising he's tired. He's going to have a few months off now and come back next August/September. And congratulations to the winner, Shamrocker - fillies don't often win a Derby, so that was a great performance.

Not sure who it was but congrats!
 Are you playing tonight? Some chalkie races... Firebolt Hot Snitzel Divorces ... but ummm Culminate is at fantastic odds. I think I might just play the two races... the Doomben Cup (and while I do like MKoF) am thinking of keeping it simple and just playing Triple Honour (I do love Shoot Out but he never wins when I need him to). For the record Zavite is scratched... Good luck to Newport at Rosehill, to jungle Ruler at Flemington, and of course to UPSALA!!!!! (Playing hm to win of course. M/l is 12/1 but I'd imagine it'll go higher. Hooray! ).
