I thought the coverage was way better than the ABC Belmont fiasco. Nice pace and only one audio bug interview ( the Jeff Jacobs rap remix).

What were the bettors thinking in making Circular Quay 2-1, I know I've been burned on this one but that was on dirt and a few races back.

Nice to see Dreaming of Anna back although I was rooting for Lemonlime. Maven I think your filly will prove to be of graded quality before her career is over.

1. when is everyone going to realize that Circular Quay is a late closing sprinter and let him do what he does best? They are racing valuable races with thise horse. I'd rather see him retired than to have him like this.

2. I'm getting to the point whre if I see the word Smart or Strike in a horses name.. I'm just going to make a bet. Smart Strike might be the hottest stallion in the country. lost the race (strike a deal) by a headbob

3. I think Duveen was the best horse in the race. the start costed him the race

4. Dreaming of Anna is BACK. Check out that final time.. On Turf.. and she's a filly

Thanks, Oliver! She checked once or twice but really went flat when she had a chance to accelerate. We knew she was in deep but we were hoping for her to show she belongs in this company. 6 of 12 isn't a complete embarrassment and you dont know until you try!

We took a licking this weekend with both Lemonlime and Greenstreet, even though both were aggressively placed. We'll take a few days to come up with the new objective and give the girls the chance they need to recoup.

We have Encanto Park in a stakes at Canterbury right now about to start. Keep your fingers crossed. She may salvage the weekend. Im not watching so expecting a phone call any minute.

Lemonlime and Greenstreet. I race under my father's name and silks. Encanto Park is another but she's owned in a partnership and just did nothing in a stakes race today at Canterbury. NOT the best week for us!
