    • By Mike Love  Richmond Park trainer Robert Stuart heads to Banks Peninsula today with a strong chance of success with maiden pacer Amalfi. Sam Ottley will reunite with him in Race 2, the NZMTC Supports Grass Racing Mobile Pace. The four-year-old Sweet Lou gelding was huge in his fresh up run at Rangiora on November 8 where he sat parked the trip and only went down a short margin. Stuart believes the gelding will be ready to run another strong race.  “He seems as good as was three weeks ago. I expect him to go well,” said Stuart. Amalfi will still need to do some work in the race today as he has drawn the outside of the front line, but that does not deter Stuart.  “He had about ten starts last prep but was never right. So he seems like a different horse this time in.” Stuart will also line up a debutant three year old Art Major filly Art’s Mischief in Race 3, the Happy Birthday Kirsten Bridge. After spending her earlier years with Jim Curtin, Art’s Mischief had the reset button pushed by Stuart. “I turned her out when i got her.” “She’s maturing nicely. She’ll be a nice horse in six months time.” Today’s affair will be a learning curve for both trainer and driver.  “She will just need the run and experience” “She goes alright, but we aren’t expecting too much at this stage.” She will also be driven by Sam Ottley. Today’s 11-race card starts at 12.18pm.     View the full article

    • Norway as in the country that has one racecourse venue.  The highest class race being a Grp 3.  On the turf or dirt they race 28 times a year? Where they have "essentially" banned the whip?  Except when the horse is hanging badly or running out. No wonder she left.
    • In this continuing series, we take a look ahead at US-bred and/or conceived runners entered for the upcoming weekend at the tracks on the Japan Racing Association circuit, with a focus on pedigree and/or performance in the sales ring. Here are the horses of interest on the Japan Cup undercard Sunday at Tokyo Racecourse: Sunday, November 24, 2024 6th-TOK, ¥13,720,000 ($89k), Newcomers, 2yo, 1800mT RHINO (JPN) (c, 2, Into Mischief–Princess Noor, by Not This Time) is the first foal for his dam, the $1.35-million topper at the 2020 OBS April Sale and subsequent 'TDN Rising Star' who posted her most important victory in that year's GI Del Mar Debutante Stakes for Zedan Racing and Bob Baffert. Katsumi Yoshida paid $2.9 million for Princess Noor at the 2021 Fasig-Tipton November Sale with this colt in utero, while her dam–Sheza Smoke Show (Wilko)–fetched $1 million in foal to Tapit at the same event in 2022. That in-utero produce, a colt, was hammered down for $900,000 to Repole/Grandview Equine at Keeneland September this fall. B-Northern Farm 5th-TOK, ¥13,720,000 ($89k), Newcomers, 2yo, 1600m REALIZE CAMION (JPN) (c, 2, American Pharoah–Spiced Perfection, by Smiling Tiger) looks to give his sire a second Japanese debut winner in as many days with Ryan Moore at the controls, who guided Luxor Cafe to a win in the Saturday opener at headquarters. Winner of the 2018 GI La Brea Stakes and the GI Madison Stakes the following season, Spiced Perfection was led out unsold on a bid of $1.35 million at Keeneland November in 2019. She made the final start of her career in the colors of Haruya Yoshida in the 2020 GIII Winning Color Stakes, was bred the following spring and produced this colt in February 2022. Realize Carmion was sold on for the equivalent of $1,195,525 at the 2023 JRHA Select Yearling Sale.

    • Yes I prefer Matt to the whale. He tells it like it is. Although I do like seeing the look on whales face when one he has a had a big bet on finishes down the track. Its hard to put on a brave cheesy grin when faced with such disappointment lol. The bookies have that face he makes pinned on the wall of their meeting room I heard.
