    • Pride Of Jenni ridden by Craig Newitt winning the Peter Young Stakes at Caulfield Racecourse. (Photo by George Sal/Racing Photos) The time-honoured Group 1 Australian Cup (2000m) headlines the action at Flemington on Saturday afternoon, with the weight-for-age feature attracting a quality field of 10. The Ciaron Maher barn seemingly has a stranglehold on the event, according to horse racing bookmakers, with Pride Of Jennni holding the call at $2.70 after drawing barrier one. The Pride Of Dubai mare is in search of back-to-back wins after dominating the Group 2 Peter Young Stakes (1800m) at Caulfield on March 15 and is one of seven Group 1 winners set to line-up in the $2.5 million classic. Stable companion Middle Earth is on the second line of betting at after a blistering Australian debut in the Australian Cup Prelude (2000m) at the same course and distance on March 8. Zardozi ($6.50) couldn’t reel in the margin of Pride Of Jenni on the Peter Young Classic and will be attempting to turn the tables despite drawing out in gate nine. Jamie Melham retains the ride and should be aided by a genuine tempo this time around, with Deny Knowledge ($15) likely to inject an element of speed into the race. The Chris Waller-trained Atishu ($8) looks set to peak third-up into the campaign after producing a strong closing figure behind Tom Kitten in the Group 1 All Star Mile (1600m) on March 8. You can get double-figure odds for every other runner, with the likes of Light Infantry Man and Attrition representing good each-way value with .

    • Several years ago I walked the track at Avondale a couple days before a meeting or should I say the dog walked me. Half way up the straight he started digging centre track and proudly brought up a golf shaft with the club head missing. The end was very sharp. I took the shaft to the then CEO and he rather abruptly said "put it there" no thankyou no alarm no nothing.
    • I have just read Curious's post and I hope it is not the man I was thinking of. I thought he was a much better bloke from what I had seen in his Bully Boy comments.
    • On 11 March I put forward a post titled 'Land grab and spend'. In it I quoted the new NZTR CEO who said on the Guerin show quote "There are some big infrastructure issues especially in the Central Districts. There are some big real estate plays that need to happen and they are in train hopefully in weeks or months. And we can start to understand what we can do with the funding" unquote You can bet your house that what 'THEY' will not do is downsize their bureaucratic structures.
    • Maybe TAB should just run tote and Entain fixed odds or maybe they should have when they started, there is money running the tote, not so guaranteed with fixed odds.some of the new betting options I don't see as a improvement, place 6 was a good option, now gone. I'm not sure if I'm correct but dosnt this Shannon guy own a few horses in NZ, in the North? Certainly seems we are having a aussie invasion, or a Queensland one, not hard to see how Brittany Graham landed a job on trackside, must be some worried local presenters, can't be room for all.
