New Zealand Racing 2013-14

I honestly don't know! I don't think it's named after a horse. It's had the same name since it was first run in 1891, but I have no idea what the reason for it is. But that's a really good idea! Mufhasa's not the first horse to win that race twice, but he's one of the greatest and most popular horses to ever win it. That would be an awesome way to celebrate his amazing career.

Also, the TAB website has introduced live streaming! I haven't tried it out yet, but here's the link: https://www.tab.co.nz/racing/video

I will check that out and thanks and oh for the record... didn't mean to nonchalantly suggest they change the name of such an historic race but it seems like it could be a fitting possibility (?).

Definitely! Really nice idea.

So good to see Military Move win a G3 today.

Just watched the replay... that was awesome!!!!!

Will we get the field for the Newmarket tomorrow? Hope so!!!

Field is out now! Wide gate for Pinzaara. And tough field - not only Mr Hombre, but the scarily good Albany Reunion too. Gulp! Fingers crossed.

Pinzaara's trainer, Stephen McKee, sent us these photos of his kids playing with her.

Also, amazing fields for the other stakes races on Boxing Day!

The fabulous 1000 Guineas winner, Costa Viva, returns in the Eight Carat Classic - against two other last-start stakes winners, and the undefeated Procurement.

Chambord v Lucia Valentina and a few other seriously good 3yos in the Guineas.

Shuka, Historian, Lady Kipling, Survived, Viadana, Zurella...

Can't wait!
