You don't need to move there. Emma Stewart has actually been sending horses to Tasmania quite regularly lately. (for a few months) To get the $9,000 winners prize in low class racing. Sent 3 there last weekend and Mark Yole was driving . They all won very easily , one won, by 7 lengths one went 1.55 😳 . scaring the pants off the locals who cannot compete with that. they paid $1.05, $1.30 and $1.30 lol. Can't see the sense in the Purdon Move to Pukekohe ? . the Clevedon farm of Roy and Barry's has always been a great facility and Mark would of stayed there with many champs like Adore Me and Lazarus and that over many years. Why not just stay there still ? unless Dean Shannon has completely filled it with his horses which is a Possibility 😁. Perhaps Nathan is the next generation Purdon, that will move in there when Barry and Mark , back right off. In the not to distant future, Mark wanting to 'hang around' the Waikato already. Don't think Barry has any kids to take over the Clevedon farm. -

What Eagle Farm Races Where Eagle Farm Racecourse – 230 Lancaster Rd, Ascot QLD 4007 When Saturday, February 15, 2025 First Race 12:13pm AEST Visit Dabble Racing returns to Eagle Farm on Saturday afternoon for a massive 10-race program, with the first event scheduled to jump at 12:13pm AEST. The track was rated as a Soft 5 at the time of acceptances, and with rain forecast on raceday, a downgrade before or during the meeting is possible. The rail will be in the +0.5m position for the entire circuit. Best Bet at Eagle Farm: Just Precious Just Precious has been impressive when winning both of her starts this preparation, with her last start win over 1200m at Doomben showing her class against her own age group. The Stuart Kendrick-trained filly settled in the box seat from barrier one and burst through a gap at the 300m mark to run away with a dominant 2.1-length win. From barrier two, Cody Collis can attempt to replicate his ride on Just Precious from last start and prove too good once again. Best Bet Race 3 – #12 Just Precious (2) 3yo Filly | T: Stuart Kendrick | J: Cody Collis (a2) (57.5kg) Next Best at Eagle Farm: Mogo Magic Mogo Magic will return from a 32-week spell to compete in his first start at Eagle Farm, following a strong trial victory at Goulburn on January 28. The Scott Collings-trained gelding failed to win in his last campaign; however, his trial showed that he has returned in much better condition and will be ready for a big run first up. From barrier 14, expect Nick Heywood to push forward and settle on the speed before asking Mogo Magic to quicken and sprint clear at the 300m mark. Next Best Race 9 – #4 Mogo Magic (14) 5yo Gelding | T: Scott Collings | J: Nick Heywood (58.5kg) Best Value at Eagle Farm: Maragical After finishing last preparation with two victories, Maragical will return from a 20-week spell for her first start at Eagle Farm. Tony Gollan sent this daughter of Better Than Ready to Doomben for a quiet barrier trial where she went around untested over 1000m. With both of her wins coming over 1350m, kicking off over 1400m is expected to suit Maragical and the +1400 on offer with PlayUp is very appealing. Best Value Race 6 – #5 Maragical (7) 3yo Filly | T: Tony Gollan | J: Emily Lang (a2) (58.5kg) Saturday’s quaddie tips for Eagle Farm races Eagle Farm quadrella selections Saturday, February 15, 2025 2-3-4-5 5-6-7-13 4-10-12 5-8-12-15 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip More horse racing tips View the full article -

Via Sistina is the favourite for the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes. Photo: Bradleyphotos.com.au Chris Waller is confident that Via Sistina is fully acclimated and well-prepared for her bid to maintain an unbeaten Australian first-up record in Saturday’s $300,000 Group 2 Apollo Stakes (1400m). The seven-year-old mare claimed the Group 1 Ranvet Stakes (2000m) at her first start in Australia last March and kicked off her last preparation by winning the Group 1 Winx Stakes (1400m). She then travelled to Melbourne, where she added the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (2000m), Group 1 Cox Plate (2040m), and Group 1 Champions Stakes (2000m) to her resume. “In her first prep she was just off the plane and last prep her coat didn’t come right until after the Cox Plate,” Waller told Racing NSW. “It’s a short break from the spring now to Apollo Stakes Day so they don’t get too far away from you in terms of fitness. “She’s had two trials and an exhibition gallop so she’s well prepared. She’s at the right weight and mentally she’s great.” The Group 1 Verry Elleegant Stakes (1600m) on March 1 will be the next step for the mare before either the Group 1 George Ryder Stakes (1500m) or Ranvet Stakes, before heading to the Group 1 Queen Elizabeth Stakes (2000m). “I’d be leaning to the Ranvet but she’s pretty versatile, I’ll see what she needs to go into the Queen Elizabeth which is the grand final,” Waller said. Waller also has defending champion Fangirl, plus Atishu and Lindermann in Saturday’s contest. “Fangirl is very effective over 1400 metres, so if there’s a chink in Via Sistina’s armour it’s probably first-up,” he added.

Lady Shenandoah winning the Group 1 Flight Stakes. Photo: bradleyphotos.com.au With high-profile stablemate Autumn Glow still a couple of weeks away from resuming, Lady Shenandoah has a chance to make an early mark in the Group 2 Light Fingers Stakes (1200m) at Randwick this Saturday. The traditional kick-off race for the three-year-old fillies has come too soon for the undefeated Autumn Glow, who is recovering from bone chip surgery to a knee. She only had her first barrier trial at Warwick Farm on Tuesday. Despite Autumn Glow’s absence, trainer Chris Waller will still be strongly represented in the 1200-metre race, with four runners, led by the daughter of Snitzel. A dominant winner of the Group 1 Flight Stakes (1600m) at just her fourth start, Lady Shenandoah has impressed in two recent trials, and Waller believes she can continue to build on her already strong record. “Lady Shenandoah has come back pretty sharp so we’re excited by that,” Waller said. “She’s pretty good. I think she did it all on raw ability (last campaign). “It was the early part of the three-year-old year, she did a pretty amazing job.” The $3.20 second-favourite with horse racing betting sites will be joined in the race by Waller’s Group 2-placed Snitzel fillies Declichy Boulevard and Lazzura, as well as Group 3 winner Amelita.

To be fair, Timaru did virtually give the Timaru Stakes to Riccarton because they couldn't afford it. Those were the days when clubs had to fund their own stakes. The Marlborough Cup is a bit bizarre. Marlborough actually puts money into the race and provides a sponsor which does seem incredibly magnanimous on their part. The one I find a bit confusing is the Banks Peninsula Cup at Riccarton. That is the only instance all season of a Club racing away from their own track and not getting a $35,000 stake for their open class feature race. They do seem a bit hard done by. Perhaps no one has noticed. They must look on in bemusement at Waikouaiti who have had money lavished on them as a reward for racing at Wingatui. I'm not sure why Banks Pen is the poor relation to Waikouaiti.
