Thanks Kevin, another honest effort from her. Will need a miracle in the final with the 12 barrier and the strength of the field.

The trotters spread the money around - six different stables for the six $100k finals
You have to love that

Only 3 of 11 favourites won tonight and one of them was a healthy $2.90 pop, 6 started odds on and only 2 of them were successful
Andy Gath was the only trainer to get a double

I would have said that the night wasn't ruined by one dominant stable, but you are much more diplomatic than I Kevin.

Imagine if on a day of six Gp1 races at Flemington (we're not talking any old Gp1's)
Bart Cummings trained a First 4
3 Trifectas
a Quinella
and in the one he didn't win he got 2nd and 3rd

I think you mean Gai Waterhouse don’t you Kev?

[Messenger]

No, Gai doesn't quite have the legendary status that Bart has

We do have to remember that the prizemoney is being shared between various owners (congratulations Anne)
but the Stewart stable won $535,600 of the $780,000 on offer
It did however involve a lot more work than winning the equivalent in one race with one horse eg an Inter

Thanks Kev. Pistol Abbey is an amazing mare ; just gets the job done in a very professional way. The enquiries are coming from US buyers , my head says Yes but emotionally my heart says No. She is only 4 but her racing career is very limited and I certainly don’t need another broodmare. There is one Open Mares race next week and no more until the Breeders Crown 4 year old mares on August 24 ( not even a lead up race for that ). I will not break her heart racing against the boys at the top level. Certainly there are early issues with the NR but programming leaves a lot to be desired. If you are a breeder a mare with a good track record adds value but it’s frustrating when the opportunities are not provided equally to both sexes.
