I was lucky enough to get invited to the Australian Horse Of The Year awards, and Hall Of Fame induction at Crown last night.

Great night (not such a good morning today!). Typhoon Tracey (deservedly) picked up the top award got HOY.

Bart Cummings and his horse So You Think and Faint Perfume all came away with awards. p.s. a get well soon messge to Bart who took a fall recently and broke his pelvis.

Shocking (unsurprisingly) lifted the award for top stayer.

Crystal Lily came away with the 2yo award

Starspangledbanner lifted the international award, and surprisingly and rather frustratingly for many he grabbed the top sprinter award.

A very good night had by all.

Heard a rumour that Wealth Princess has torn a tendon.

I don't know if she can come back from that, and if she does, whether she'll be as good.

She was a huge talent. It's a shame she never got that G1 win (she was beaten by a neck or less in two of them).

Sucks and yeah I just saw this ed... really a shame.

It IS, however, better than this one. I'm sorry but this piece is 4 lines and when I was reading it i thought she was gone (till that last one)...

That's a terrible article! "Succumbed" is a very bad choice of word - makes it sound so much worse.

I know!

What were they thinking?

"Has lost one of his potential stars" and then they use past tense in that 3rd line.

Just awful.

Lucky you for getting to go and hooray for Tracy et al but I'm just a tiny bit surprised!
