    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.

    @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

    ''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.

    Agreed. Good to see a Kiwi horse take it out too.

    Sorry mate. Been so busy no time for Fern.

    Tattybogler had her first start (Her sire is full brother to Black Caviar.)

    She ran a fantastic race 3-5 wide the whole run, second last on turn and rattled home for third.

    Meeting was called off after that radce so Solomon didn't get to have a run

    @JK also Park Lane at Tauranga tomorrow. fluffybunny of a horse. Beautifully bred and talented as fuck but head of a fucking flea. Weak as piss in the head.

    Thing is he will win at some stage but no idea when. $1 each way for fun and be prepared to lose it. But a 'just in case he finally gets it right' bet

    No tips for many a long day....

    Spring carnival is heating up, Caulfield Cup three weeks from now.

    NZ horses leading the charge at the moment for Caulfield Cup especially are

    Bonneval
    Gingernuts
    Jon Snow

    Bonnval super impressive winning last start fresh over a short distance
    Gingernuts won at Hastings
    Jon Snow very strong win at Moonee Valley last night, tough run early and did it easy in the short straight

    Love Bonneval at the moment, running against Hartnell in the Underwood on Sunday, think she can win the Caulfield Cup, maybe the Japanese runner Admire Deus is best value at the moment, Bonneval very short for CC @ 6.5

    Alamandin last year's Melbourne Cup winner short price in CCup due to conditions, no rehandicap for MC if it wins CC.

    Win - Caulfield Cup 21/10 (All In)   
    
     	Bet   	Win Odds   	 	Place Odds   	 	
     	HUMIDOR	6.00	 	2.25	 	
     	BONNEVAL	6.50	 	2.40	 	
     	ALMANDIN	6.50	 	2.40	 	
     	HARLEM	9.00	 	3.00	 	
     	HARTNELL	10.00	 	3.25	 	
     	GINGERNUTS	12.00	 	3.75	 	
     	JON SNOW	17.00	 	5.00	 	
     	FRANCIS OF ASSISI	21.00	 	6.00	 	
     	EGG TART	21.00	 	6.00	 	
     	ADMIRE DEUS	21.00	 	6.00
    

    Bonneval AJC Oaks win. Track was Soft 7. Mile win last start at Moonee Valley Good 4.

    NZ Derby

    Go Bonneval.

    Was on Jon Snow last night. Good return.

    Also Chocante today in the metropolitan. Need a big run to get the Melbourne Cup chance but faded for 3rd. Still good money.
