You're just getting old Mango. It happens to the best of us.
Check out all of the snow on the roof of Eliteblood for an excellent example thereof and don't get me started on how old looking BPH has gotten these days.

That's very nasty TRipleV. I turned over another year yesterday in fact.
Actually, I'm looking forward to the forties

Make the Derby a true classic heats and final over the mile and give the race the true recognition it so rightly deserves our family has bred i think it is up to 6 or 7 Derby winers now incl 2 on the one day trotter's as well and both by the same sire Dad tells me their is no prouder feeling than to win a Derby as it used to be the pinnacle aside from the Inter he reckons it's a bigger thrill than breeding an Inter winner. For each state i feel the Derby has lost it's prestige in the latter years

Hi Winston,

As a breeder I regard breeding an Inter Dominion winner as a much bigger prize then a derby winner

Just to return to the subject of this post, it is about a week since we had any news on rnr hanover and his status re standing in australia. Can anyone update details on Warwick stud, stud fee,etc.

Yes Termite i would to if it was a true Inter not like the last few years no 3 heats and final i like the old format you found the best over the 3 journey's and the cream rose to the top

Flat out pressure on all the way, lead from gate to wire Mile racing for a 3yo colt is going to be a far greater test of his stamina than any 2600-2800m could ever be.

A true run 2 mile race (ie NZ Cup) IMHO would be a much tougher test of stamina than, for example, the 1:48 mile Smoken Up run at Menangle. Of course I'm a little biased, but I think I have a point. The gallopers in the Newmarket are flat to the board the whole 1000m - yet I regard a 3200m Melbourne Cup a tougher test of stamina despite the first mile almost always being a dawdle!

Just spoke to someone who has seen RNH and they said he would be lucky to make 15h how big is he supposed to be

RNR Heaven is 15.2h on Peppertree's website and Hanover is 15.3h.
