What are you saying Carioca? ... what does Bott do? ... muck the stables?
I suppose it gives her more time to get to know the names of the horses, and to do the form so she can tip them all as great each way chances when they are odds on in 5 horse races and she doesn't know what the form of the other runners means, or an emergency that won't get a run! ... Well, oil be fooked, whaddya know, was it ever in doubt!!! Who'd pay for tips!!! SATURDAY 13 OCTOBER 2018 – RANDWICKRail: True SPEEDYCOM (Race 1, 12:30pm, 1000 metres, No. 4, jockey Tommy Berry, 56.5kg) Speedycom (Zebedee/Comrie) two-year old bay colt. Speedycom heads to his debut at Randwick with Tommy Berry booked to ride. The colt has done a treat since his trial and although there are a few with race experience on Saturday, he is coming off an impressive trial win. The track surface will be quite heavy on the day and the colt will either handle it or he wont, but the rest of the field is in the same position and regardless, he will take great benefit from the race day experience. Each-way chance. STAMPEDE (Race 4, 2:15pm, 1600 metres, No. 2, jockey Josh Parr, 61.5kg) Stampede (High Chaparral/Nothin’ Leica Cat) six-year old bay horse. Stampede gets back to the races over 1600m with Josh Parr set to ride. It is a tough test for Stampede on Saturday in the heavy going and with a big weight on his back first up over the mile but he has drawn well and hopefully won't need to do much work early to get into a nice position. Solid each-way chance. ARBEITSAM (Race 8, 4:50pm, 2000 metres, No. 6, jockey Tim Clark, 59kg) Arbeitsam (Snitzel/Workhard) five-year old bay or brown gelding. Arbeitsam is back at Randwick over 2000m in Group 3 company with Tim Clark aboard. The gelding is coming off a huge run in Group 1 company and the gelding is as fit as a fiddle heading into Saturday dropping back in grade. The added distance will suit, the heavy track is not ideal but he should get through it well and we are expecting a big showing from the gelding in what looks to be a strong Group 3 field. Solid each-way chance. SATURDAY 13 OCTOBER 2018 – CAULFIELDRail: True Entire Circuit OUR CROWN MISTRESS (Race 4, 1:55pm, 1200 metres, No. 6, jockey Stephen Baster, 56kg) Our Crown Mistress (Star Witness/Barangaroo) four-year old grey mare. Our Crown Mistress heads back to the races over 1200m. The mare has really come on well from her first up run and she is certainly fitter and sharper for the outing. She meets a big field of mares on Saturday and she has drawn wide but the added distance will suit and we are expecting to see a much improved performance come race day. Strong each-way chance. AEECEE TONG DE (Race 4, 1:55pm, 1200 metres, No. 18e, apprentice Zac Spain, 55kg) Aeecee Tong De (Pierro/Brandish) four-year old brown or black mare. Aeecee Tong De was terrific when returning to form last start at Mornington and the mare has really thrived in work since the run. She loves Melbourne, she's a very happy horse and is bright in herself. She is in fine form at present and although it is a big step up in grade, she will run a nice race. Each-way chance. SIEGE OF QUEBEC (Race 7, 3:45pm, 1600 metres, No. 11, jockey Stephen Baster, 52kg) Siege Of Quebec (Fastnet Rock/Rose Of Cimmaron) four-year old bay horse. Siege Of Quebec will head to Caulfield on Saturday over 1600m in Group 1 company with Steve Baster booked to ride. The horse has travelled down south in very good order and he is well and truly in the mix in this assignment. He meets a couple of obvious dangers, as you would expect, but the horse could not be looking or working better heading into this race and we are expecting him to put his best foot forward and prove hugely competitive come race day. Each way chance. SEDANZER (Race 8, 4:35pm, 2000 metres, No. 11, jockey Stephen Baster, 57kg) Sedanzer (Sebring/Voltdanze) five-year old bay mare. Sedanzer heads to Caulfield on Saturday over 2000m in Group 1 company. The mare has been racing incredibly consistently and she has come through her last start in very good order. She is fresh and bright in herself as she steps back to the 2000 metres on Saturday, she is down in the weights and as always, she will prove very competitive in this star studded field. Each-way chance. SUNDAY 14 OCTOBER 2018 - CRANBOURNERail: Out 3m 1000m-WP, True Remainder RUNAWAY (Race 8, 4:35pm, 2025 metres, No. 10, jockey Stephen Baster, 54kg) Runaway (Manhattan Rain/Catshaan) four-year old bay or brown rig. Runaway is back at the races on Sunday at Cranbourne over 2025m. Runaway has come through his terrific first up run in very good order, the step up in trip on Sunday will suit him well and as always, he will be very competitive in this field. Strong each-way chance. |

I doubt if Bott mucked out a box in his life , of the gravy train and into Duck La'Ronge lol,
Gai is his tutor, she can step back and advise, there are men behind the scene that know as much to help him , he'll make it but Rome was not built in a day. |

But in all seriousness it was great to see Gai being awarded.
It must be hard to follow in the footsteps of greatness and she trod her own path with distinction. A trailblazer for all woman in racing.😃 |

Yes, as much as i dont like a lot about Gai, she did open the door for the women, and she stared "the establishment " down and forced some rule changes for the betterment of the ladies. Good on her for her determination, hard work, and success. Thanks for the Bott history, PT. Should have made the connection but oldtimers is setting in

You are all a bunch of hypocrites Gai was given it all, and never got close to reaching the heights of the racing dynasty that TJ gifted her, yet Trump is somehow to be berated, a loser, because he inherited a fortune, multiplied it and became the most powerful and influential individual on the planet ... yep, Fcuk Trump, "Rrrrreeeee!!!" Well done Gai, enjoy your retirement!

YES Doc. Smells like my sox . Gai fell into the lap of the most infamous family on the planet , became famous with some "Fine Cotton " style material for a Hall of Fame. Dad being a wealthy provider ( shady as a good tree ) and "Al Capone " to steer the ship , Gai is a worthy recipient = If it was only for having a hide as thick as my . |
