An article on the breeding (but no author?)

Viva Storm - the same family as Our Sir Vancelot

It is only one start but the favourite was disappointing, then again there is nothing in his pedigree to suggest he should be any good

Stormy Woods who ran 2nd in the race above, broke through for his first win with a lot of encouragement from Anthony Butt at Ballarat tonight in the slow time of 2.05.9 for 1710m

Although the breeding article above mentions his 2nd dam, it does not point out that she is a half sister to super sire Holmes Hanover!

Only 4 left in the field for the $20k Premier stakes tonight
The favourite v three Storm Inside's

Do we expect a long career from a 2yo racing twice in 3 days? He may have only been entered to help the race stand up for the stablemate
It will be interesting to see how he goes for although he won on Thursday, he did not seem too sure about this racing caper

Anne would be happy with Its Confidential's debut win at Cobram today
Poster Boy's progeny are already making an impression
His MR of 1.57.3 was the fastest of the day and although it was over the short trip, so were 5 other races

Nothing wrong with 4th/Last placed Zeron's debut either if you can excuse the mistake that he made, for he was beaten by less than what the mistake cost him

I reckon tonight's Sapling Stakes will produce its fair share of winners
The winner and Lexy might be VERY good

I'm not so sure much good can come from running such fast times so early in the season.

Yes, there are plenty that would even advise against racing as a 2yo Katie but under the old September system, this was half way through the season
