Who owns horses???

Bad luck SC, doesn’t sound very pleasant for the mare, good that she’s spelling, don’t want her to learn to dislike the race day experience. 

Our 3 yr old Deep Field is about to go back into work. Had a jumpout but no starts yet, we are letting the trainer bring her along slowly. Just sacked her Excelebration sister, gorgeous horse in looks and temperament, now have to find her a lovely permanent home. Only 15.2 and not enough fire in her blood 

This ones bigger and more excitable 

Nothing like big-noting:  

Black Fantasy held off a late surge from Flower In The Wind to claim the second leg of a feature double in the Listed Belmont Classic (2200m) on Saturday.  

Starting a popular $2.45 favourite, Black Fantasy cruised to the lead at the top of the straight for jockey Lucy Warwick and looked set for a comfortable victory.  Flower In The Wind ($7.50), one of several hard-luck stories in the Belmont Oaks (2000m) a fortnight earlier, launched a powerful run from last to lay down a serious challenge to Black Fantasy.  However, the Dan and Ben Pearce-trained gelding lifted in the final 100m to stave off Flower In The Wind by three-quarters of a length. Tizzle Top ($34) was five lengths behind in third.

Black Fantasy was placed in multiple three-year-old features before breaking through in the Aquanita Stakes (2000m) and Belmont Classic.  “It’s a relief,” Dan Pearce said.  “Last preparation he ran third in the Magic Millions over 1200 first-up and then ran third in the Derby. “To be able to do that shows you’re a pretty serious horse.  “I think he’ll have a decent spell now and come in at the back end of the Ascot carnival.”

Warwick was full of confidence when Black Fantasy had a perfect run in third position.  “The leader (God’s Fury) actually set a nice tempo and we got to have a breather, a bit of cover and he showed a really good turn of foot this time,” Warwick said.  “When the stablemate (Outspoken Lad) took off he went with it and had a lot more spring in his step this time.”

A $36,000 yearling sale buy, Black Fantasy boosted his record to three wins and eight placings from 13 starts and $359,400 in prizemoney and bonuses.
