New Zealand Racing, 2014-15

[_ed_]

Good to see they've finally put the replay up!

Yep, I'll be there on Friday. Noms come out in about three hours, and the final fields are confirmed tomorrow.

The Boxing Day fields are amazing, as always! So many outstanding horses in the Zabeel, and the Eight Carat is full of potential.

Pinzaara's got a good draw for her career finale in the Newmarket! It's a tough race for her but I know she'll try her heart out again.

The 2yo and 3yo races early in the card are really nice as well.

They ARE amazing fields!!!

Okay first off and most importantly, good luck to the beautiful Pinzaara. Hope she ends it with a win. What a great horse to follow... thanks for sharing her goings on.

Good luck to El Chico and to Dillinger at Wingatui (even if I don't know where that is!) , to Iamishwara at Awapuni (whoa I have not seen the name Crocodile Canyon in a long time!), to Dorian Grey at Pirongia (nor that...) AND oh Ellerslie...

Good luck to Lauren Tate and Allez Eagle in the 1st, Giant Turtle and Amun Ra in the 4th, half the field but especially Pinzaara in the 5th, an awful lot of horses in the 7th and 8th , Veyron and pretty much every horse in the Zabeel Classic which is one of the most exciting fields I've ever seen (!!!!!).

Have a beautiful Christmas, ed, and a very happy (and fun) Boxing Day.

Thanks! I have tomorrow and Christmas Day off, which is going to be nice, and then Ellerslie. Can't wait.

A very happy Christmas to you too, as well as anyone else who might be reading this thread and not posting.

Absolutely loved reading this... good luck to your little star who most certainly deserves to win.

A cool little horse indeed!

edit - How wonderful seeing this is the lead story!

I am getting such a kick out of seeing the Tavy and Sports Illustrated stories pushed aside for the Pinzaara piece! So awesome, ed!
