Will be interesting to see if Grimson game enough to take on The JANITOR and LTF and the Don Hugo with his good mare Captains Mistress ? , after her fine win tonight.

The JANITOR. well he cleans them Up !! go the mighty Queenslander. in the second last comp race just finished. Pete McMullen 'sweeps' and swoops down the outside to spoil the Grimson Swayzee party . Swayzee pretty game in that for Blackie sitting parked out and toughing it well. Pinseeker nowhere for NZ , but RAKERO ROCKET does hold 3rd that is 6 points for the Galah.

Once the race pattern was confirmed for the day he had no chance.

Whatta performance that was. 🏆 Leap To Fame parking up .Against those fast horses . and still winning in 1.48. Race 5 A Miracle Mile Qualifier sees the mighty Queenslander through to another crack at the Biggest race next Sat. Same Quinella as the SLOT race at Cambridge 2025 too. with CHase a Dream closing late for neck 2nd doing NZ proud once again. Nearly the same Trifecta but DON HUGO got 3rd tonight ( after 4th at Cambridge) 14 points for Gamma in the BOAY slot race with 1st and 4th.

The Galah $105, Blackie $86, Gammalite $41, Brodie $31, and old boy Chief $12 💰

Why is still no published Stewards Report for Champions Day Ellerslie? Even a draft would be good! I know there were 3 Enquiries but typists aren't that slow! If there was a report would it stop thw rumour that Well Written bled?

Any horse that reacts to the whip the jockey hence forward should be banned from using the whip but NB still carry the whip. Safety has always to be placed first.

Heat 3 of the Derby and the New Zealand and Grimson teams Strike again. Paul Borg probably paid a fortune for ZEUS LIGHTNING after his good Sires Stakes 5th at Addington last November. A very nice horse winning by lengths for Grimson , driver Cam Hart and BOAY slotties Galah and Blackie. The 2 x Michael Stanley runners were 3rd and 4th. FUGITIVE just sort of a battling 4th. Will be touch and go if he qualifies for next weeks BIG Derby Final. The Galah picking up 14 points in that one with ZEUS and FUGITIVE doing the NZ horses proud. +$25 collect Blackie in with 10 as well (+$25) , and Gamma got just 2pts with the Queenslander fading to 5th for McMullen. POINTS after Race 4 in the BOAY SLOT race challenge The Galah 34 points , Blackie 28 points, Brodie 18 points, Gamma 10 points , Chief 4 points, Dollars earned comp. The Galah $81 , Blackie $62, Brodie $31 , Gamma $12, and Chief 0 💰

Yep she has some quirks. I'm not a fan of head gear but if a horse ever needed blinkers it's her. Not that I'm a trainer.

Yeah na! We'll turn it around. Think positive.

Its Michael Stanley again. and the bugger pips the QLDer of Dixon's by a nose at the line and takes my multi's with it 🙄 . SOHO CHARMER by a nose from FIRE and PASSION the QLDer in Heat 2 of NSW Derby. Anyway its 8 points to Gamma for 2nd and $12. and Brodie in 3rd with last start winner YOTTIE so picks up 6 points and $19 in the divvie comp. POINTS after Race 3 in the BOAY SLOT race challenge The Galah 20 points , Blackie 18 points, Brodie 18 points, Gamma 8 points , Chief 4 points, Dollars earned comp. The Galah $56 , Blackie $37, Brodie $31 , Gamma $12, and Chief 0 💰

She veered outwards late in the piece of last years Railway against Crocetti.

The stabilisation comment was that they werent losing as much as they were previously! some will see it as being ok, others can see it as not so good, definitely can not see how they could possibly be able to continue to race for the stake money currently and expect to be able to make it pay? Would be good to hear from Brad Steele again to see how he thinks things are going now and in the future? 30million is buggerall to show for the years they have been going and would be grest to know what the financial situation was in say the year 2000?

SHOWmeTHEtanLINES and expensive NZ purchase with an awful name gets the money in the first NSW Derby heat. The Galah takes the NZ points and Blackie takes the Grimson Grim points with the same horse. Soho Trump for Michael Stanley and the Brodster gets 6 points in 3rd and a tiny $12 POINTS after Race 2 in the BOAY SLOT race challenge The Galah 20 points , Blackie 18 points, Brodie 12 points, Chief 4 points, Gamma zero. Dollars earned. The Galah $56 , Blackie $37, Brodie $12 , Chief and Gamma 0.

And so there should be.

LOL here we go.

What track bias?

I bet there are questions asked about the track bias at Flemington today.

I think 'nz' have been tracking down since the mid 90's.. more so as 'our' better tried younger horses have become more and more attracted to rich overseas money! Life changing for a lucky few! Over time I presume there will be a serious trimming down of G1's etc in both NZ and Au..

No a spinter/miler. The fact that she ran those sectional times (not from a standing start) shows she is good enough to pick up a good Grp race in OZ. We see the stars winning them back to back but there are plenty of options to place a horse well in OZ.

Race 1 hits the line and old NZer KINGMAKER , a winner way back in 2019 at Ashburton and Invercargill in 1.59 takes a Menangle win in 1.49 quite a few years later. Michael Stanley is a fantastic trainer . He has a few Derby runners having a go soon including FUGITIVE from NZ. The Galah picks up 10 points for the New Zealand Slot. and $34 in the divvie comp. to lead both systems after R1. Blackie in 2nd with the Grimson NARANO gets 8 points , and $15 Brodie in 4th and 5th with Captain Bellasario (4) and I Break The Line (2) is on 6 points from those two runners. Chief also on the Luke McCarthy trained CAPTAIN BELLASARIO is on 4 points Gamma zero.

If she can break 1.21 for 1400m, she is a sprinter

Because she isn't an out and sprinter. Her best rated wins have been at 1500m and 1600m.

A great night of Harness action about to go after all that great action at Ellerslie and Randwick. The lights are on At Menangle . not sure with New Zealand ?? 😉 most have left and might switch them off. and slots are drawn. SLOT 1 / BLACKIE going for the speedy on course trainer Jason Grimson . to win more than Just the Chariots of Fire. SLOT 2 / CHIEF the best man of the BOA pack is in with the LUKE MCCarthy Slot. Luke being the OZ Best harness man SLOT 3 / The NEW ZEALANDER slot . to THE GALAH to cheer on the great kiwi horses racing tonight , that have all won in NZ , and are shining the light for the world to see. SLOT 4 / GAMMA goes into battle with an undermanned Queensland squad , but there's some nice ones running. SLOT 5 / BRODIE can get on the money , when his team of Last start Winners , tries to Double Down with another victory tonight. TIPS/ i'm tipping Brodie to surprise the BIG players with a Win tonight , for the SLOT 5 power horses. I'll score a points system ( for where your horse places ) and a DIvvie System as well. Because you blokes like a punt Best of Luck to your SLOT runners !!! race 1 about to go.

Yes, but not in Aus
