I see another case of a suspended trainer's horse now being trained by a relative (in the same town) getting up at Shep tonight
I just noticed the Doctor I saw last Friday was the sponsor of the last race at Ballarat tonight - that is a Dr you have to love

I see the stewards QDT for Joe Taaffe on Glenferrie Hood in the Italian Cup. He was certainly stitched up but maybe punters should not be sending horses out odds on when the driver has only had 2 wins for the season. I know he got a few wins last season but he seemed to have no idea of what was going on at the start of that race

The caller of Semi 1 C&G Breeders Challenge at Menangle had a terrible time of it in the last 300m with the runners, masters, majors getting interchanged. It is a tough gig
I hope he had a stiff bar at the drink afterwards![]()

Lack of local knowledge maybe Kev. I said to Luke on way to track Saturday night.... Lance's horse goes forward and so does Exciteusinthecity. Both best chances of getting in the money. If speed on Cold Major a chance. Glenferrie Hood either gets planted or gets lovely trailing run. He went to fence... got planted. Cold Major wins. Great drive!
Other race chat about. Hotasel best horse in race. Drawn 7 over short (amazing how may times wins). Driven like he the best horse in the race by J. Justice. Win like he best horse in race. Superb drive! Nice horse.
$72 daily double... I on ???
Forgot... also if you watch the start of that race, watch how quickly Jason Lee (Metro Mike) reacts when he sees Lance in front and maybe looking for a trail and also the chance to put the favourite 3 back the fence. No mucking about, take initiative and nearly paid off. Also a great drive by a very talented young driver.![]()
Young Fella on Glenferrie Hood was shaking his head after the race and looking for someone to blame maybe, Missed his chance early to get away from the pegs, So no one to blame except himself IMHO, Some real good drives in the race as you mentioned Paul and just because you are on the favourite doesn't mean the race will be handed to you on a silver platter, There could be 7 or 8 horses in the race that are a chance of taking the prize and driving the favourite always puts a target on your back. It was certainly a race of many chances and Cold Major's odds just staggered me, Time to start punting again!!!

It may be understandable that Robert Watson is having a Reduction Sale as he has some future broodmare prospects in the making

I skimmed the list and missed her Nate. I thought she was pretty impressive today. I know U30 is a favourite of Rich's as is the closely related Im Victorious so I might have to leave her to him![]()
