Thanks for the comp, I'll stay in NZ & go rough. Hastings R1 # 9 Lubaya, R6 # 9 Royal Ruby, & R7 # 9 Barcelo. Good luck all

I would prefer to see who the owners are.

As this is terminating and I want everyone to have a fair suck of the sav at the $500, I will have a look at how things pan out weather wise and confirm the nominated race situation tomorrow. If I have to add more races and raise the "ANY" number I will at that point.....for example 3 races at HB,Waikato, Sydney a total of 9 races and raise the choose ANY to ANY5 for entrants to have best chance of a competitive total. I like your style YT - Back to the golden rule it is !

Riccarton Race 6 #1 Te Aroha Race 7 #9 Te Aroha Race 8 #7 Sydney Race 7 #14 Thanks for the comp !

I hope Parker wins for NZ but struggle with the damage boxing does to the body of the competitors and given the study into retired Rugby and League players who have suffered concussions, I wonder if Boxing as a sport will be lined up with Rodeos as sports soon to be banned ?

Awapuni race 4 #7 Riverton Race 6 #2 Sydney Race 3 #2 Awapuni race 7 Quinella 1/4/8 Sydney race 8 10 Thanks

Good call, easy to get to, on a main road, plenty of parking too !

The Howick club was good for meals and a nice setting if you can travel.

I suggest you check out the local RSA or Workingmans club which may be a bit quieter and mare like the Aussie RSLs

Let's see where he turns up, he would not be the worst option for NZ breeders, especially if priced well, I'm thinking that at $3k service fee, he would be a lot of stallion with a track record and a lot of upside.

Australia Cricket is following Labour closely with an inquiry announced into the allegations of ball tampering, (after the admission)that should bury it for 6 months !

I certainly enjoy the comps, pitting your best guess against others, the element of fun is starting to get lost in translation with comments. Thank you sponsors and keep up the good work for all involved !

R1 - 2 R2 - 10 R3 - 5 R4 - 7 R5 - 4 R6 - 1 R7 - 8 Thanks for the comp.

1, 10, 3, 12. Thanks

We have sent mares across to Darley and they use to pick up the transport cost door to door, I'm not sure if they do that now. They tend to discount the Stallions that are not getting a full book sometimes because they are not getting the Darley mares.

I can lend you a dart to throw at the race book, less winners but bigger dividends !

Breednet has announced that Monaco Consul is offered unreserved on the Inglis digital online auction. I wonder what his stats are compared to NZ stallions of similar value.

Fantastic finish, great to watch, sat happily at the back and took the gap nicely.

Felaar Montoya Star Swisswatch Son Of Maher Mark Two Thanks for the comp, good luck on the punt everyone !

If you want to play % pick a stable with a good strike rate and double up on the losers

Unraced due to injury, had her entered for the golden slipper, first foal unraced, had the heart, but not the size. 2nd foal 3 wins, 3rd foal a winner, 4th foal died due to colic, we will race her progeny from now on as 2yo showing real potential.

I'm breeding from a mare that is a half to 2 group 1 winners and been told that the progeny are destined for Festival/book 3

You're not alone in backing horses that like to follow other horses, like taking lotto tickets and living the dream. I remember the old Trumpet ice cream ads, "One day Roger Phipps, One day"

Wow, I wonder how many turn a profit at the yearling sales when you are up against those numbers and you are paying a service fee north of $40k.

Aquis have picked up a couple of Stallions from Darley to give them a 2nd chance at a different location. They stand Benefica (Darley), Husson (ex Patinack ?) and Holy Roman Emperor (Coolmore ). They have a great property an hour away from the Gold Coast at Wonglepong. They progress the horses across the property from broodmares with foals at foot to weanling to yearling and onto the breakers and training track. I hope it goes well for them.
