New Zealand Racing, 2011-12

[_ed_]

Villifye's been amazing this season. She's won four of her nine starts in 2011/12, and placed three times. Incredible consistency.

It has been a while since Lady Kipling won a good race - December was the last one. But since then she's been 4th behind Shez Sinsational in a G1, second behind Veyron in a G1, sixth behind Scarlett Lady in a G1 and fourth behind Say No More in a G1! So she's not running badly. I think she's right in this. I like her and Postman's Daughter.

Floria never runs a bad race either.

Jimmy was disappointing today. Had nothing when JR asked him for his usual sprint.

But Burgundy was awesome at Te Rapa in a G3 sprint, and Dolmabache was a 27-1 upset winner of the Travis.

Yeah I wondered what was going on with Jimmy poor guy.

Why was Mufhasa scratched? He's okay right?

Nice news about the others though.

Mufhasa's fine - just a stone bruise. He'll be 100% in a couple of days.

As for Jimmy... see the Retirements thread.

Oh no please don't tell me to look there.
