A couple of future champions enjoying a grass popsicle in the frost. Definitely prefer the view working from home than the office.
They have names yet?
And then there were three. Paddock names of Benny, Jet and Kiki Dee
Yeehaa! What a view from the office

@Hooroo Kiki Dee - a pretty relevant punting tip......."Don't go breaking my heart"!
Definite Elton fan in the naming of those guys!
It was purely because we called the Galaxy Miss foal Benny, and then we saw Rocket man and the next day "Jet" turned up and of course there had to be in a similar vein as the other two when "Kiki Dee" turned up.
When Benny first arrived we thought she looked really nice but then Jet turns up and makes her look just OK.
I will try and get a photo but Kiki Dee's white patch on her forehead looks similar to the Apple logo (Turned clockwise 90 degrees)
and I need to elaborate that these are only paddock names and won't race under that name.

By the way, our syndicate has a new trotter. She had her first start last Friday but made a couple of mistakes (broke twice). That said, she did pass some horses in the straight so she looks to have some speed.
She's lining up again at Ascot Park on Saturday - R3 #11 Miss Crazed. Toss some each way money on her - if she trots throughout, she can figure in the finish.

Good luck mate! Will bet
@JK we got rid of our share when he did a tendon. Yeah, he isn't great fresh.

fucking rude
A mate texted me screenshots of a big win in Wellington yesterday. Didn't tip it, or heads up it, just sent the screen shot of the win he kept to himself.
That is rude as fuck!!!

the G1 in Brisbane tomorrow got thrown wide open by the draw.
A mate of mine owns Dawn Passage so he is up and about this prep (and i've won a fortune on it). Apparently the horse hates a crowd though, and if it gets clipped in traffic it quits. From the very outside gate that makes it an interesting favourite.
Then Trekking draws one barrier in from that. Two wide barriers at Eagle Farm for the 2 favourites? Wide open race.
I've got an early bet on Exhilarates, and i am hearing a fair bit around Hightail as well at juicy odds. I'll also be on DP though, because i would hate it to win if i wasn't on.

Polly Grey had her trial today and ran second last on the bridal. Was just a freshen up so will wait to see what Chris says about it all.
He was happy with the trial and said she will trial again on the 19th and then straight to races after

Dear Robin,
Polly Grey (NZ) (Azamour (IRE)/Allanah (NZ)):
She trialled nicely in her first Australian trial this morning with James McDonald in the saddle. She jumped well and was brought back to settle along the fence in a mid-field position. She quickened with the rest of the field but wasn't put under much pressure over the concluding stages. She did only beat one home but she wasn't under any pressure at all. James said she was a caught a little flat-footed when they sprinted but she was strong through the line and will relish the wet tracks. I think at this stage we will stay in Sydney as we have a better chance of getting a wet track. In the meantime, we will head through to a second trial on the 19th June. She could then resume in a Listed race over 1350m at Rosehill shortly afterwards. -

Fully! He is such a pro.
I may be repeating myself so sorry if so, but when we sent her over, the day she left the farm in NZ we got a video from Waller after she arrived to him in Aussie, with his arm around her neck giving her a scratch and talking through a plan for her. SAME DAY AS SHE LEFT NZ! I was astounded.

Well, she didn't trot throughout but when she trots, she's pretty quick. Big effort to nab 2nd.

Yeah, that was huge. I will be on again at the short odds.
@JK did you see Our Peaky Binders? Far out, will be all over him next up. Flew the gates an dragged back to last (WHY???) and flew home for 5th I think. Maybe 6th.

Yeah I listened to the race as was out for a ride and sounded like finished very well. Didn’t hear himbeing called in at the finish but from where he was sitting, ended much closer than expected.
