    I never knew that fact about Margaret Bull, very interesting.
    I think Jamie Richards has taken Te Akau training to a new level of success, particularly in Australia.  He does a great job, is young and can break a lot of records.
    It is also true that not every trainer in NZ gets 50 new Karaka 1 horses every year.  There are many trainers in NZ that would have only seen a Savabeel at the track.

    Whether it is 10-12 horses or 20-25 it is an extrordinary effort with that size string (that I was unaware of).

    I also rate Sunline & Probabeel ahead of Melody Belle on the international stage.

    But for any horse to win 11 GR.1's would 100% place them into history books as one of the best ! .....Melody Belle is certainly that 🏇 🏅🏆

    MB, Probabeel and Advantage all wound up to win Million and still got that enthusiasm and ability,  that's a seriously good training effort . None though within a furlong of Sunline achievements on world stage but not many horses are within a furlong of that legends achievements.

    I personally think Probabeel has a much better chaince of winning a Cox Plate than Melody Belle would (both horses of dreams). 
    The Aussies loved Sunline too, she packed out racecourses.

    shaneMcAlister reacted to John Clydesdale in Is Belardo better than his sire?   
    Early days in the North, but this fella is hitting his straps earlier than his sire and grand sire. Could be a bit special.

    shaneMcAlister got a reaction from fermoy in National makes promises for $1.6b racing industry, including tax review   
    I actually think the fix has to come at prize money level. The rest will follow.  Increase prize money significantly and the below happens:
    less horses sold overseas
    bigger fields better quality 
    Trainers can charge more and earn more winners percentage 
    jockeys can earn more and don’t have to go to oz
    more owners bred
    More owners get involved 
    more owners buy
    the quality of product improves and attracts more punters dollars
    It goes on and on, but prize money is the most important thing
