    @Hooroo I hadn't checked the horse number before watching so was just watching the other ones at the front expecting it to be one of them, then see Peaky Blinder tear up from the outside!

    It's cool looking at the shadow of the horses on the turn and you can see he is nearly two lengths last

    Have two running round today. One a clients and one ours (Naples)

    Naples in race 5 is worth a place bet and Money Never Sleeps is just to watch at this stage (Race 1) as he may need distance but this will be gopod for experience.

    Reminds me - I saw this PR the other day. No author listed, but I'm wondering if it's you and Smudge scratching one another's backs? 🙂

    @Chris-B. Not @Smudge

    He is out of the industry at the moment going up in the world.

    The PR and marketing we have got because of that win has been fantastic.

    We got a good plug from industey pundits on TV too which was nice

    Yeah quite an impressive finish from Naples. Actually well ridden too. Sat back and seemed to time the run in pretty well. Shame just didnt have it in the final 100m or so to edge ahead but had done a bit of work after the start. Shows promise for sure.

    ''Going up in the world'' is a matter of perspective...

    @JK
    Scratched mate as drew 14 of 14.

    Park Lane runs tomorrow at Te Rapa. Full brother to Miss Keepsake who won Queensland Oaks.

    Taken his sweet time to get to races as a bit weak in the head but it looks as though he knows what the game is about now.

    Don't go hard as I have no idea how he will go but had Solomon held in a track gallop the other day (Solomon was carrying 20kg more mind you)

    Cool mate.

    I see Endean Express is also in race 6. Only paying $3.60, fav I think.

    Anacapri looks like it good be a good one. Easy maiden win at first start. Alamosa looks good. Had maiden win first up then spelled for a few months. Interesting race

    Abandoned due to track conditions. Didnt look too bad from two races I saw but a bit of loose stuff flicking up. Not too sure what was the problem. Anyway, had a winner in race 2 and pretty sure I was about to get one in race 3 lol

    Huge day at Randwick today with day 1 of the campionships. 4 group one races including the Doncaster Mile. It's wet and the track rated a heavy 9 so quite well suited to our Ginger Nuts for the the Aus derby.

    Also hoping Russian Revolution can get up in the TJ smith stakes and Le Romain in the Doncaster

    Have done a full card of form so that should be more for the arvo

    Should be a real good meet

    That ride was so un Opie like. He alwasy lets everyone swing wide and follows rather than panicking and swinging wide with the field. Just had too much to do.

    We may have three running at Counties on Sunday. Naples - Should go well and is getting talked about a bit so will likely be short. Solomon - Always fights and is always wrth a dabble. May need this race though for fitness. Park Lane -All the talent with no brains. (We call him flea brain at home) Coming first or last would be no surprise.

    Must say though that Jon Snow was super impressive. Talk about peaking for the big races.
