I hope so. You know where you click on the results for a specific race and it says overview / dividends / video? Strange how the video part is completely missing!
I did just watch O'Marilyn and WOW.  That was a gutsy ride from Sam!Also watched Darci's Dream and a few others (was going to say Chumana's race but I suppose I should remember it from the winner, Victoryshallbemine, instead of her awesome blaze, huh?  ). Surprised to see Amun Ra running against older horses at Matamata but maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. Hope he does well. I really do hope he ends up being all that!

That is a bit surprising, but when I talked to the trainer last week he said he needed to give the horse another run before the Hawke's Bay Guineas on October 4 - his plans were messed around by the cancellation of the trials last week.
The rest of the replays seem to be there now.

They are and thanks. Watched most of them... beautiful win by Pure Champion and, of course, I Do was great but that was really nice to see Soriano with such a great run (too)!

Great noms for the Livamol Classic (!!!), just watched the Amun Ra race (which I really should call Busta's race... nice win for him. Disappointed though although he did break awkwardly, huh?), shame about Nigelissima... not a career ending injury though, right? What do you think, ed... has Veyron had enough now? Starting to wonder...

Also just read your piece in the Informant and am so happy there are big plans for Soriano especially! http://www.theinformant.co.nz/racing...or-Classic-bid (Noms for the Livamol are crazy good)! Almost had a heart attack cause when I looked at the NZ Racing site and seeing a Sangster win pic! I mean that was a truly nice 2nd behind The Cleaner on Friday night but I thought well wait did he go home and race again already (and win!)?!

Ha, I noticed that as well! But that was a really nice race for him behind The Cleaner. I hope he does win another one soon.
Wow, I'm getting to write about so many great horses in my preview articles for this week's newspaper - Puccini, Stratocaster, Fix, Silent Achiever, Bounding... I can't believe I'm getting paid to do it!

Aw.
 http://www.theinformant.co.nz/racing...lined-by-virus It was nice to be the first one to report this, but I wish it hadn't happened. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Great job (always). Your passion and enthusiasm shine through. (... and yeah that is a shame about Albany Reunion. Get better!). Opie... what on earth is going on? I was surprised to read about his... do we call it a break?

Thanks!
Yeah, I'm not sure about this break for Opie either. He's done it a couple of times before, said he might not be back and then come back a few months later. But that was always in the winter, when it was harder to keep his weight down and the racing wasn't that good anyway. This a bit different. But I hope we see him again soon.
