![]() Thanks for that, ed.
I just read about Veyron on the Informant... "He’s had 10 days work but he’s not right so he’s out,” said Laing. “I’m not prepared to take any risks with him after everything he has done for us.” Will miss seeing him for the rest of the year but am very glad he is so well taken care of. ![]() Anything good this coming weekend? |

![]() Oh! That was such a good race and wow Fritzy Boy... what a nice 3rd. Cheers to Eight Shillings and to the winner, Barbaric.
![]() The Hombre needs another one or two back and then they all better watch out! ![]() |

![]() Great couple of days of racing! That race was awesome, and we saw a couple of nice fillies win 3yo stakes races - Lucia Valentina and Rising Romance. And Lady Kipling deserved her G3 win today. Another 2nd for Postman's Daughter!

![]() Yep, I'm here at Ellerslie! Good day so far. Can't wait for Pinzaara, and the Concorde should be good too. Also looking forward to the Captain Cook at Trentham. Hope Final Touch can repeat!

![]() Wasn't able to take any photos myself, but found some. I'll post them soon.
![]() In other news, Shuka won his first G1! He really deserved that. |

![]() Wow, ed... I just watched both replays a couple of times each and Pinzaara... that was just so great to see and I love how the race caller (who I love and whose name I can never seem to remember) (sorry!) talked about her well-deserved win.
![]() I did realize Sam had been hurt in the one before. Any news? I do hope she's okay. Nice ride by Ms. Collett. Shuka? Wow that was great to see too and what? First G1 for Danielle? Really? Nice that they won it together and yeah I know he's had a lot of different jocks up but she's ridden him quite a few times (I think!). Final Touch IS okay, right? Noel knew she had had enough and didn't push her, right? Cheers to Brave Centaur for his very nice run. I can't wait to see the pics of your girl! |

![]() The caller is George Simon. He is awesome.
Sam has a fractured cheekbone. But she won't be out of action for long, apparently! Final Touch got kicked by another horse and had a "laceration to her right front leg". But she'll be OK too. |

![]() They're lovely, ed. I'm so glad you posted them.
![]() What's next for her and how's Archie doing? |
#157
|
||||
|
||||
![]() Archie's still enjoying a break - apparently strengthening up nicely. Can't wait until he makes his debut!
Pinzaara's being entered for the Newmarket Handicap at Ellerslie on Boxing Day! Huge step up, but I'm sure she'll try her hardest again. |

![]() Haha. Looking forward to seeing him again! Kind of hoping Pinzaara beats him in the Newmarket, though!
![]() In other news, the hype horse Lifeline Express made his debut at Matamata today. He was 13-1 third favourite for the Derby, even though he'd never raced! But he won brilliantly, and now he's Derby second favourite at 8-1. |
