Who owns horses???

Shawy, you know I love your updates but it’s too soon to talk about Space Rider … I put a small bet on him but accidentally typed in a much larger amount (yes yes put your frigging glasses on BP) … *panic* … and too late to cash out - he ran accordingly Cry

But BOL with him and all your other interests anyway Big smile

Any syndicate members going to Hawkesbury tomorrow ? Or forumites ?

animals before people.

Looks like I fly the flag then Big smile

Have access to tickets if anyone interested .

animals before people.

Oh dear BP, he just didn’t handle the going at all. Thanks though!!

Chiringita also won’t run this week, being saved for the week after

TBH I didn't click that he was one of yours, I've just liked him and thought he was a good juicy chance.

I'll be following him closely, but with the glasses on Embarrassed

BP the dickwit on Racing.com gave his two top tips noting that they were both enjoying weight relief, entirely ignoring the fact it was a race restricted to claiming apprentices. Wacko

Sadly Bush Girl has just been retired.

Apart from a knee that couldn’t stand up to this prep after a bone chip operation some time ago, she’s as sound as a bell 💕 we gave her a year off but she reckons it’s time.

My mate bred her to win an Oaks and all us Mudgee boys came on board. After Kerry Parker at Kembla worked his magic, she actually got to run in the 2024 ATC Oaks at Randwick.

She started officially at 200/1 but 360/1 was freely available and one of our owners got 500/1 boosted! And had $500 EW 😂

She ran 7th, beaten less than 6 lengths after still being in front at the 250m mark. Brilliant effort given it was one of the strongest Oaks in years.

Autumn Angel and Zardozi ran 1,2. Orchestral 3rd! Form was later stamped.

Anyway…with Bush Girl to be retired we need to think about what happens with her.

She’s nicely bred but if we put her up on an online sale she’d be lucky to make $1,000.

So I’m thinking I might try and have a crack at breeding her. I’ll (we’ll) get her for “free”.

More news will be available in the Breeding forum tomorrow but then I’ll be asking my mentors for their advice. Do we pass or breed and more importantly which stallion do we go to.

BTW, if Furious, Take2, SC, Slowdown and many others (said mentors) read this…I’m coming’ for ya!

Careful GAJ … she might end up agisted at your place! Big smile

But I totally agree they should enjoy the next part of the journey with Bush Girl. It’s been wonderful so far.

And some of the owners aren’t getting any younger *ahem* Wink

Horses are why we wake up every day with ‘hope’ - you know it, GAJ, slowdown, and many others here, we all know it Heart

Nothing better than besting the bestie - there’s your reason right there LOL

What a great career Bush Girl had, credit to all involved. Looking forward to following her future

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing
