She and Single Gaze are one dynamic duo.

I can tell you Khan that the Canberra racegoers where I was were riding as hard as Kathy was in the last 200m.

Her and Marmelo were by far and away the best runs in the race and she is a great advert for Nick Olive's capabilities!

So happy to see her come through that nasty fall in the Oaks. She looked gone for all money that day, looking forward to seeing her at Flemington.

My favourite horse at the moment! Apart from Winx of course. We listened to the last bit of the race while stopped at lights on Windsor Road. We were cheering her home and carrying on. I'm sure everyone around as thought they were witnessing a domestic violence/road rage incident or something.

I always love the really gutsy horses and she's certainly that!

Made all the big horses look second class with those little legs of hers.  She has one of Australia's best staying sires back in the 80's in Whiskey Road a son of Nijinsky crossed to a daughter of Nijinsky.  She is anything but like Nijinsky on looks but she goes further than most Not a Single Doubts and tries her heart out.  My TV was having a hard time with my yelling for her to finish second once Boom Time got past and she just went flatter and really tried.  Wonderful ride by Kathy to read the style of the day but the mare had to be able to handle that front (well ignoring the run away) role with ease.

When you consider she has Not a Single Doubt, Redoute's Choice, Canny Lad, Bletchingly, Biscay, Snippets, Vain etc and is inbred to Snippets/Lunchtime and Biscay!  Anyone who believes our sprinters are just sprinters really should look again.

Great day when a Golden Slipper winner sires the Caulfield Cup winner.

Hard to see how they find a win for this girl. I think everyone would like to see it, but it’s frustrating to watch her repeatedly having to be ridden hard early to take up a spot, then being ridden hard from the 600 to stay in touch. Tries her guts out but never seems quite enough. Maybe a mile handicap where she can be ridden cold with some weight relief? Hard to see her winning WFA.

Doomben Cup seems the obvious race to bring her wonderful career to an end.

She is one gutsy little girl.   Never stops trying.    But always runs into one bigger then her.    I hope she can crack a good win before she retires. 
I wouldnt mind having a horse like her.

I agree a Hollindale & Doomben Cup would be nice target races. 1800m-2000m is right in her wheelhouse. But why end her career there? She’s only rising 6 and only had 33 starts. We need our top horses to have longer careers than that. Can’t see why she wouldn’t be competitive again in the next Spring & Autumn.

Last I heard Yoshida bought her for $1.6m, with connections retaining her to race through the autumn, and the price to increase to $1.8m if she won another G1. Goes to Japan after the Sydney Cup, and will be served by Deep Impact to Northern Hemisphere time. Assume that’s still the deal.

They love our iron horses with stamina.

The Nick Olive-trained Single Gaze is trying to lose her bridesmaid tag when the $7.50 hope takes on Gailo Chop ($2.30 favourite) in the Tancred.

It could be the Caulfield Cup placegetter's second to last run for Olive before she embarks on a breeding career potentially in Japan.

Single Gaze will fetch a price believed to be $1.6-$1.8 million, depending on whether she adds another group 1 win to her resume.
