Oh wow too funny!

I don't know what made me think of her but it is pretty funny how we can't post her name.

Good luck, ed! When you have a sec let us know who the favorite is for the Thorndon Mile. I'm sure all my picks are at very long odds but not like I can play them!

I would love to see Banchee win this and I am quite sure you would too.(I won't list the other 8 I'm cheering for).

Say No More?! Wow.

Postman's Daughter second, then Jetset Lad and Smoulder.


Say No More has come from nowhere. She's suddenly become a really good horse.

Banchee tired herself out before the race even started - jumping around and throwing her head all over the place. And then she had a rough trip. She just had nothing left in the stretch.

HUGE clash in the Waikato Guineas at Te Rapa tomorrow - the Derby favourite vs the Oaks favourite.

1 1121 Ocean Park 2 85 56.5 Chad Ormsby Gary Hennessy, Matamata
2 12542 Shuka 7 80 56.5 Hayden Tinsley Peter & Dawn Williams, Byerley Park
3 32115 St Mark 5 70 56.5 Matthew Cameron John Sargent, Matamata
4 94656 Mustang 1 69 56.5 Shohei Shirahama (a) David Miller, Tauranga
5 02312 Guess What 3 65 56.5 Jonathan Riddell Paul Shailer, Matamata
6 15034 Viking Ace 4 65 56.5 Cameron Lammas Karyn McQuade, Matamata
7 25361 Barney 9 63 56.5 Craig Grylls Anne Herbert, Cambridge
8 X5610 Sacred Knight 8 61 56.5 Sam Spratt Stephen McKee, Ardmore
9 2131 Silent Achiever 6 82 54.5 James McDonald Roger James, Cambridge

If Silent Achiever wins, she's going to the Derby instead of the Oaks.

Rock 'n' Pop and Knight's Tour are still my Derby horses at the moment, but I'll watch this race with interest.

Shuka's a really nice horse as well - keeps running 2nd, 3rd and 4th in all the big races.
