Pretty cool that Zennista won!

Yeah, very cool! Good mare. They're aiming at a similar race in a couple of weeks now - the Grafton Cup.

Mixed feelings about this - http://www.stuff.co.nz/waikato-times...for-Kiwi-champ
I love watching him run when he's at his best, but I really hope they look after him and know when to stop. He's done so much for them already.

Completely agree with you. VERY mixed feelings.

I just heard Bruce Almighty is retired and is now working at Matamata Racecourse as a companion pony.

Oh that is awesome!!! So happy to hear it.

Bruce winning the Waikato Times Gold Cup at about a million to 1 (30/1?), just because. Hope he enjoys his new career!



Read about Cauthen on the Informant and just watched his win at Te Rapa.... very nice!

[_ed_]

Yeah, excellent win. He's heading to Melbourne for the Caulfield Guineas, I think.

For absolutely no reason I was thinking of Coniston Bluebird last night... whatever happened to him?
