Lot 139 Mystique Falcon Lot 241 Repeat Lot 269 Savaria Lot 285 Shanro Thanks Liz it is great fun        

I agree. Should have been called a no race. What a fiasco. These gate malfunctions are too common here now.

If you want see a really interesting line bred filly look at Lot 560 in the Inglis Classic sale. It has 5 lines of Eight Carat through either Diamond Lover or Cotehele House.

Big result for veteran sire at Te Rapa yesterday........add a 3rd Group 1 for the Street Cry sideline if you include the winner of the C F Orr stakes at Caufield yesterday..

Has this also been done for other countries, including New Zealand - the last 70 years exposure of how the Science/ Physicists have experimented on the masses may wake some up just what goes on. Some of this nonsense goes back to who became Dame Anne McLaren & one of her husband's, Donald Michie..carried forward today by their daughter and 2 husband's clan. Follow the money and who has "Lost in Translation". Dr Seuss books are based on Human and animals and botanicals metamorphosis - transgender has come about through those known facts being "Lost in Translation" and the aforementioned circles experiments.   They are all Nutty Professors running the Goon Shows including WHO, World Bank, WEF and others. It's time we had Investigative Journalists back in our lives exposing the nutty Science world who have screwed up World Stability 

Finally had a chance to review the Te Rapa races from yesterday. LEICA LUCY is very good - she got Mr Grylls out of a world of trouble when boxed in off the home turn but she has what so many horses don’t have - a turn of foot - and that got her home. Not sure what the plans are but she’s an exciting prospect both as a racehorse now and as a broodmare one day. EL VENCEDOR bossed the Herbie Dyke comprehensively reversing Zabeel Classic form with LA CRIQUE. Did the slightly better ground help? My recollection of the Zabeel is he didn’t have much fun up front but here he controlled the race and was always going well. I’m not sure what Kevin Stott was doing on LADIES MAN - shuffled back to last and an impossible task off the home turn. TUXEDO and BOURBON PROOF dominated the Waikato Guineas field and anyone who had the Quinella could form an orderly queue 200m from home. The winner backed up from a fine effort behind DAMASK ROSE and must have big claims in the Derby and while the second will no doubt take his chance but I can’t see the form being reversed on this evidence. A 1-2 for Australia in the Sprint - now you know what’s it like when the Irish or French do it to us. The winner is rated 108 and while I don’t know where he sits in the Australian sprinting hierarchy,  he was too good for the locals. Apparently there are spring targets in Melbourne and Sydney - aren’t there always? The second may be the more interesting long term prospect - BOSUSTOW is by Blue Point but there’s plenty of stamina there and I just wonder if a mile might be the next option. As for the last - chaotic. I’ve never seen a horse scratched in the UK despite running the whole race. I don’t know what happened at the start - IF there was a stalls malfunction, the race should be voided otherwise it’s bad luck if your horse missed the start. DECEMBER ran a huge race and would have won on level terms - he’ll be short enough next time.

Now this is money well spent, Hokey and Mitey and probably Nonames want this lot to be in charge, Chairman Mast Exposes Outrageous USAID and State Department Grants 02.04.25 Media Contact 202-321-9747 WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast released the following video exposing radical, far-left grants issued by the State Department and United States Agency for International Development under the Biden administration.

Charlie mate, DSDreamin was to use your term 'huge' 🤗 really liked the way he stuck to it Mark and Nath should be over the moon with that run....   Cheers Iraklis

Totally agree. So wonderful to see the race go to a smaller trainer and lesser known jockey, Janelle Millar and Chris Dell, plus the syndicate owners.  What a thrill for them all, they are having a lot of fun with that horse. 

It's a shop. A $2 one?

Classic…..    

And what a great run from Don't Stop Dreaming he is definitely back

So you think using aftermath post race is ok???That is all I was saying I dont think it is right terminology to be used post a race...nothing more.

Check these out 2 beaut races: Trotters Cup  https://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=CR080225#CRM08022507     Cranbourne Cup:  https://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=CR080225#CRM08022507   Cheers Iraklis  

You're only proving that it isn't only Trackside that use aftermath incorrectly.   Aftermath is always used to describe something negative.

Yes one for the battlers, one remembers  Mr dells horrific injuries many years back, after a terrible fall at the trials, and a long lay off, can quite remember the circumstances, good on him, done well to make it back to race riding.

Great for the large number of owners of Risque Ruler and Windsor Park Stud. The residual value of her two younger half sisters by Circus Maximus will increase as well.

I agree . But wasn't it good to see Chris Dell win the race . So happy for him 

Hated this from the get go.... I'm a bad judge about many things, but I couldn't see how this was going to be any different from what they delivered. I'm not sure what the whole thinking or what they would acheive was, but no doubt there will be a positive spin put on it... 🙄
