<p>Had an $11/$3 winner come in today as it was a horse we agisted on the farm. Ran in Aussie.<br><br>
Led from the front and on the bit on the turn when rest of field were off trying to circle.<br><br>
Let go and teared them up. Very impressive.<br><br>
Imposing Lass is its name</p>

<p>I see she is racing again today at 1620 R5 at Rosehill, any oil on her chances?</p>

[Hooroo]

Haven't heard will update soon

<p>Imposing Lass won again...shame I only had a multi for her to win and Peaky to place  </p>

[Hooroo]

Imposing lass saved my punting day as I was doing hopeless. Du Plessis even said he fucked up the race. Had the run and didn't come out when he should have. He was surprised back runner won. Disappointed with result but not disappointed by horse. He ran huge at end. He will stay by the looks.

<p>Barnaby has drawn barrier 7 for The Cambridge Breeders Stakes at Te Rapa on Saturday.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is the true litmus test for him as he is up against NZ's best 3 year olds. Xtravagant will be short favourite I imagine.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Will be a bit of fun if we win.</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Sprinting 3 Year Olds, I should add. Rangipo etc won't be there</p>

[JK]

<p>Awesome mate. Sounds like a big one!</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Huge.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jacob is being a little bullish about this too which is nice<br>
 </p>

[Smudge]

<p>Drawn OK in 7 too.</p>

[Hooroo]

Yeah. Agreed. All the pace on inside

[Hooroo]

<p>Barnaby's race is up on the fixed odds $26 Fixed Win and $5 Fixed place.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I will be gobsmacked if they remain that high (or increase) I have just put my bet on now and I think he is worth a bet. Expecially at $5 a place.</p>

[JK]

<p>I'm in. Decent place bet plus a small one on the nose as lucractive odds there</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Yeah, I have gone a bit bolder than I should.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm starting to get super excited about this which is ridiculous as Xtravagant is an exceptional horse, aong with a few others in a race and we have won a maiden and a rating 65 ha ha!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have had a look at the times the competition have run at 1200 and Barnaby heads them all I think and his times are on a slow track where some of their win times have been on a good track. ( I rushed it a bit but I think I am right in saying that)</p>

[JK]

<p>Yeah saw extravagant in there and even for a fairly uneducated punter like me, I know its a good horse.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dont think a lot of rain is forecast unfortunately...</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>I think that is good as Barnaby looks better at the track when the footing is firmer.</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>I think he will run his quickest 1200 on a good track so the winning time will be quite tidy, I imagine</p>

[JK]

<p>Oh I read that wrongly from your previous (read as if he does better on a slow track).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Think quietly excited about this one</p>

[Hooroo]

<p>Spoke to a couple of trainers at Ellerslie and they said just get a filly near extravagant on the way to the barriers and he goes all stupid and colty. Same as his brother (He's Remarkable). In fact they used to put a barrier blanet with gelding poo and wees all over it to help mask any other smells.  Didn't really work apparently</p>

[taniwharugby]

Jeez some big odds in this race, Barnaby at 2nd fave on $12.20 to win and Xtravagant very short odds and paying more to place than win!

[Hooroo]

Yeah. I'm as nervous as a piece of cheese in a mouse factory. <br><br>
Hank Marvin running on Wednesday. Race will be for experience purposes only as its a bit short we think. Then he and Park Lane will be off to Hawkes Bay in two weeks. Galaxy Miss heading to Rotorua and then Trentham.
