I think it was a great race day all round, with good sized fields containing lots of form, that would have attracted a lot of betting. We never really know because figures are never published. The track was good, despite attempts to claim a leader bias, that is probably more a poor ride than bias. The track had 132 mm of rain over the last 7 days and was rated a S5, Ellerslie never gets to be better than a G4 these days. So despite the early criticism by many, it is providing a good racing surface even after substantial rain has fallen. Note that New Plymouth had H10 with only a third of the amount of rain. Comparing it to Aus racing. The Railway showed again that we are lucky to be at G2 level, with 2 2nd string sprinters dominating, although the run of Sweynesday was indeed very good. A shame another up and comer First Five did not contest the race The 2 year old KM, a win to what can only be rated as a 3rd tier Aussie horse, but only just beat a very much unheralded NZ horse with daylight back to third The 4 year old KM. 2 NZ horses reasonably comfortable over a 3rd tier Aus horse The 3 year old KM. No Aus horses, but I doubt there is a horse in Aus that could have come close to Well Written, and I presume the reason why no Aus 3 year olds made the trip. Further to the title of this thread unless I get castigated for going off topic lol, it may indeed attract Well Written to contest 1 or 2 of the HB G1's as apparently the condition of sale being that Marsh must continue to train the horse. So I presume the horse will be based in NZ then travel to Aus for any Autumn or Spring races -

Well Written passed my last test and that was to see her covered up and needing to take some rough and tumble to get clear and moving. She did that well. I'm not as enthusiastic about her race sectionals as some are. The run yesterday that caught my eye was Sweynesday. -
I guess only time will tell about our age group races. Well Written maybe?
