That was amazing! It was a good field, but he made it look so easy. That's 20 career wins. Good to see a strong effort by Better Than Ever too.
Open 'N' Shut looks good! He's won four out of six now. I still haven't seen his latest one, but he's shown a lot of ability in his previous starts.

Yes nice to see BTE!
I'm going to be away but I see that The Hombre is running on the 26th and have to wish him well of course. (Are you going to Ellerslie that day? If so I'm very jealous)! Good luck to The Terminator who I don't think has won in a pretty long time and to Brave Centaur and Oak Park in their race. Oh my God the Zabeel Classic!!!!! What a great field! Good luck to Shez Sinsational, Veyron and about half the field.  Wish I were going!

That is awesome!
If you take pictures please post some of them. Does it mean anything that Opie rode Noble Warrior in his last start but is on The Hombre? Just curious. Merry Christmas, ed, and merry Christmas to all the fine fine horsies over there.

Thanks, and same to you! Hope you have a fantastic Christmas. I'm at work unfortunately. But I had a great Christmas morning with family and will see them again for dinner after I finish.
 Good point about Opie. I'd say it's probably a wise choice. This race is just a stepping stone towards races over longer distances for Noble Warrior, while The Hombre is ideally suited to the sprints. The Hombre's also a good chance in the G1 Railway on New Year's Day, so Opie might want to secure the mount in that one. Noble Warrior's unlikely to run in that event.

Well, how about that?
The weather was terrible, so I was expecting a day full of disappointment and weird results. It wasn't that at all. Every one of those four stakes races was brilliant. Great day! Highlights have to be The Hombre and Veyron, although undefeated filly Habibi was amazing against the boys in the Guineas too.
