Yeah, nice win by Lucky Feather! And Altius looked good too - maybe Tony Cole will make it back to the Derby 10 years on from the disappointment of Philamor failing as favourite.
And, whoa, how about The Bounty Hunter? Monstrous win! |

A fantastic win for The Bounty Hunter!
Can't wait to see him next time out and hope he does it again! |

Happy new year! And Ellerslie today was an amazing way to celebrate - so many stakes races, and so many incredible performances. I don't know where to start! But Bounding was probably my favourite - a well-deserved first G1 win after going down fighting in that unlucky 1000 Guineas.
But Rising Romance was so good too! And Mosquito. And Vinnie Eagle. And Chintz. And Show The World. Just a great day. |

She did! First 3yo to win it since 1981. And it was just a fabulous performance. She's definitely the best 3yo in NZ right now.

Beautiful win by Bounding (and nice to see Durham Town take home a check).
That was Fleur de Lune on the outside with the yellow silks? Nice run. So happy for Bounding and for her people. ![]() Very surprised by Chintz (sp)! Was that it for Lady Kipling? Thought I had read it might be her last race. Not a great day for Brave Centaur. Oh well next time! Oh and Nine Pin... that was quite a step up for him, wasn't it? I mean I feel like I've been watching him for a while now but never in such seriously good company. Vinnie Eagle!!!!! Oh I am so a fan,.. that was a nice race. Will keep catching up on the replays but yes Bounding... how anyone could watch her win and not smile... well that would be impossible. ![]() |

I was catching up on a few things and just watched the evergreen El Chico win (South Canterbury RC @ Phar Lap Raceway r6 12/28) and need to mention something to you that I constantly forget to and is so frustrating.....
They need to let the replay go until the announces makes that final comment. You know? He probably said something fun or funny, witty, endearing... something about the old man after he finished the order of runners but they cut it off (they leave it, thankfully, most of the time). I wanna know what else he said! ![]() Anyway cheers to the old man for showing the children how it's done. (I do hope he's retired the second he shows any sign of having had enough). |
