Steve C 13 Report post Posted May 4, 2019 First Consensus and now Felaar then Consensus again (she did battle on well today though to be fair but Felaar??). Is this the definition of “karma?” What happened there short stuff? Looks like Felaar caught your Bali belly on the way over. gary1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good run by Consensus though short stuff. She battled on well in the straight after being headed I thought. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apprentice copped 12 meeting ban for slowing pace at post first circuit severely checking Felaar , then he copped it again when Belgravia broke his leg . In the words the great Ron Dufficy I think would use imho it's a forget run. That was a decent field of mid range Melbourne Saturday stayers , quite a few in decent nick Iin that race . Steel Prince what a fighter, very very consistent. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consensus that's one tough mare , I missed out on LLO, been following that bugger for months , only 5s though so not too bad a miss.

Surprise Baby was HUGE yesterday Red Rum with the big 60 steadier and if he didn’t cop the Belgravia backwash he would’ve won no doubt about it. Just give him the Ramsden now! Very talented stayer and could definitely be in the mix as a strong local contender come the first Tuesday in November. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we head into winter it's going to be a highlight in May. Austrian School looked ok last week in UK , half to Tiger Roll and looks on the up. Trained by Its Somewhat and Hartnells old trainer .It will be worth keeping eye on .He's brought a few out to OZ before , and trains 200 winners plus most years.

Agree , I cannot see the issue , had some interference given easy time up straight , put a line through run and judge it on its merits next time . What's the owner supposed to say , the horse is shit but I just keep it in training anyway , just to make people happy . He is a decent horse .Like the owner or not like the owner don't mean shit when assessing a racehorse.

Love it...the owner in question just happens to be dismissive of the arse wipes of this world, and he gives no fucks when it comes to being brutal with the truth....there is no time for nillers in my life RR...I’m far too busy doing amazing things in the many other spheres I occupy myself with. I do love this game though, I’ve ridden the best, worked for the best, befriended the best, became a veterinarian along the way ( just to see some high powered letters after my name ) owned a few good ones, and had a lot of fun......you’ll almost always find those fucking nillers I can’t be bothered with have done none of the above Just makes me chuckle people slagging the horse off , have they seen some of these masses of horses running arse end of maidens week in week out midweek , those are the duffers not horse who has won decent chunk cash with bit tread left in the tyres.

Steve C 13 Report post Posted May 6, 2019 1 hour ago, poundforpound said: The slagging means nothing to us as owners....firstly the nillers are entitled to their opinion, even low life stupid uneducated have the right to express their incorrect feelings, and secondly, it’s kinda cool that every breath I take is scrutinised by all those low achievers I can only imagine how they feel when great things happen in my life ( that’s most days ), roll on today for the media release, then Saturday for more fun ..... Will they be providing you with a bassinet for the flight home today short stuff and have you brought back some plastic confetti to celebrate your own arrival back at HeadQuarters Viaduct?

Red Rum 1,833 Report post Posted May 7, 2019 I look at some of these threads, look at the beginning of them then the end . One started with Sunline about when she was sold at auction for 10k and ended with a Sultan riding a horse through a German Kibbutz in Jerusalem during a 6 day three year war. This started with a horse meeting trouble in running then becoming a night school in grammer. It's a journey and half as John Mitchell would say.
