Yeah, Jimmy's off to Australia now for the Rosehill Guineas on March 26 and then the AJC Derby. Apparently they might look at the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot after that. Big call! I think he's good enough to compete on the world stage and win some big races overseas, but I couldn't be confident with him against the likes of Goldikova. But I love their ambition and faith in their horse, who is a truly sensational athlete. Last edited by _ed_ : 03-09-2011 at 08:03 AM.

Here's a replay of the Auckland Cup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXMoa_sJ64Y
Opie was quite happy! And I loved this race, the Sunline Vase for 3yo fillies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD85tEKZgWw It was so good to see her finally win her first stakes race. She's been placed three times behind King's Rose and once behind Smoulder. It was her turn.

They noticed on Tuesday that Six O'Clock News had an elevated temperature, so they decided not to risk him in the race. I think they're looking at some races in Australia with him now.
I hope you're right about Jimmy! But he has to show the Australians how good he is first. I can't wait. March 26 feels a long way away.
