    Prolly going to get a bit written off tonight as that was a Black Type Race. To get that for a breeding perspective is just amazing.

    So happy with my Pol Pol

    Fucking great run Polly!

    That was a quality field and she ran like a champ

    Congrats @Hooroo

    I was oddly nervous with 500m to go. It was almost as though I've got a share in the bonny mare.

    She’s fucking tough. I was sure she was going to get headed and perhaps run 4th. When the third runner got close and eyeballed her she just found that bit more.

    Fucking bollocks to my head though. So hung over and I have to go to a prize giving as president.

    We have a first starter at Race one Ellerslie. Sussex. Drawn 13 of 14 over 880m, which is a shame.

    @JK I can't picture the 880m Start point. Is it like Riccarton where it is a bit of a loop into the straight so not so much of a hinderance getting a wide one?

    Rickey Baker also running at Riccarton. The trainer down there is happy with him but I'm sceptical.

    Cheers

    Not too sure mate. I hardly follow NZ racing and only really go to Ellerslie when someone is offering free beers

    Benefit 1 of being laid up with a bad back: profitable mid-week punting

    3 winners at $20+ has turned my account around

    Chris Waller is happy with her and thinks she goes 2000. Opened at $15/$5. If she can run 2000 comfortably, she wins and off to Caulfield Cup!

    I jest re: Caulfield Cup but dreams are certainly free. Chris rates her chances in this race though

    I'm on too at $17 and $4.50. I see its a soft 6 and weather looks like it may improve. Hopefully not!

    Yeah, that certainly won't help matters.

    Got a quick mention on Get On when they did there previews for Flemington. From memory just said had been specced in the market after a good run 2nd up and should be at peak fitness for this. They all liked Creedence and Plein Ciel (which I really like as a horse but just cant catch its form ffs....if i back it, its shite, if I skip it, it wins...best I back it for Polly's sake)
