Unbelievable fields!

Good luck to Mufhasa et al tonight and wow I just noticed some of the big girls running at Counties R.C. @ Pukekohe Park (!!!).

Interesting!

(Any idea why Zinko scratched?).

Just checked results and have not yet seen Boundings win (Orbity off the board?) or Ginner Harts (bummed for Fritzy but always nice to see this one do well) but I did finally watch the 4th at Arawa yesterday cause I had to see the old man, Arose (4th!).

Not sure about Zinko - maybe just the track conditions.

Such a beautiful win by Bounding. She's superb. Costa Viva looked really good too to get second in just her second start.

XANADU! Huge finish. Mufhasa went such a great race, and I thought he was going to win, but she just finished too strongly. Nashville and Final Touch ran nice races too, and Zennista.

Some good other performances on the undercard too, like King Kamada (6th in the Derby last season). Wow!

Gorgeous photo of Xanadu and Michael Coleman after the race.

Beautiful photo and yes! I just watched all the replays and what a run from Bounding and yes very nice for Costa Viva who I hadn't heard of.

Mufhasa! That was great and awww so happy for Xanadu!

I have absolutely nothing intelligent to add haha but can only echo your words.

Oh lest I forget I was very surprised to see the results of the race w/ Postman's Daughter and Miss Pelear and for some reason am having a problem with the replay stopping halfway through.

Surprised though since those two towered over that field!

I am still catching up and just watched the replay of It's a Dundeel (wow) and a few others and I have no idea how I forgot about this one (!)...

He ran his heart out.

Very happy he help on for 3rd. God I love this horse.

Yeah, he did so well! Proud of him.

I'm still scratching my head over Postman's Daughter and Miss Pelear too. The track was really wet there, and results were kind of crazy all day.

Good luck to Villifye on Saturday.
