Thrilled for Mufhasa (and for all of them, of course but...)... have yet to watch the replay but so happy.

Shuka won!

Yeah, amazing comeback! Apparently the crowd went crazy for him.

Last G1 of the season, the Easter Handicap, coming up this Saturday at Ellerslie.

Looking forward to it, but where did the season go?!

That's impossible, it can't be over already.

When will we know the field and who do you expect will be there?

The field comes out tomorrow.

Horses that I've heard will be targeting the race include Zurella, Our Famous Eve, Choice Bro, Neo, Joey Massino, Tyne Cot, Miss Pelear, Brave Centaur and Postman's Daughter.

Stupid question and I know the very nice winning streak Brave Centaur has going right now (and like him very very much!) but it seems a little strange to see his name in with this group.

I know it's his first G1 (at least i think so!) but (and forgive my dumb question) but is this his first stakes race?

I mean no disrespect and like i said I like him... he knows how to win (!)... but I just can't remember him facing horses of this level.
