    <p>After last weekend, I am hesitant about giving the tip.  So It Goes was just awful.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Peaky Blinders was awesome for second though.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Looks as though we are lining up Galaxy Miss and Barnaby at Tauranga this weekend.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I think Barnaby will be unbackable given the TAB media coverage he got but glaxy Miss should still be around $5:00l, I imagine.</p>

    <p>good thing is, Barnaby is unlikely to be reading his own press, so wil just run as fast as he can anyway ;)</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Are they to win or place?</p>

    Barnaby is a win for me. Galaxy Miss is win and place. Although track work been huge. I think they may be both too short to back. If the track is dead 5 or better. Leave Galaxy Miss alone.

    <p>Fixed odds won't be up until later today. </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The odds are irrelevent at the moments</p>

    <p>I also need to add that in NZ we scale our tracks a bit better than Good-Dead-Soft-Heavy</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>We have Fast, Good 2, Good 3, Dead 4, Dead 5, Dead 6, Soft 7, Soft 8, Soft 9, Heavy 10, Heavy 11 & Heavy 13.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Tauranga is currently a Soft 9 and will firm to a Dead 6/ Soft 7 I imagine.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>We would never race a horse on a fast track (Like concrete) can ruin a horse in one race</p>

    <p>Just to correct Hooroo . . . it's slow 7 to 9. And heavy 11 is the heaviest track rating you can get in NZ. </p>

    Galaxy Miss swallowed a huge lump of turf apparently jump well took trail and suffered. She was coughing dirt so must trust trainer. <br><br>
    Barnaby won easily. Hands and heels last 100. Looks pretty neat. A bit excited.

    Yeah. Quickest 600 of the day. I think he's smart but who really knows after two races. Off to Ellerslie maybe. I'd prefer him to spell now though. Maybe one more race as a three year old

    I see you did get a write up in the Herald:<br>
    <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://m.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11623525'>http://m.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11623525</a><br><br>
    Means squat now of course but you're obviously on the radar

    Yeah. I just want to know how much she actually swallowed and what was the true hindrance.

    <p>Can't really remember posting the above posts. Barnaby's race was Race 1 and for once I wasn't the driver so the bubbles were flowing early.  Was all tucked up by 9pm I think</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Had 36 holes of golf on Sunday too. Won both matches but not without a lot of pain and then medication :)</p>

    <p>Jason Tan made it his black booker on Weigh In on Sunday . . . said there's plenty more in store for him.</p>
