    • And how many have been so called upgraded for the betterment of racing, these seem to be the worst offenders. 
    • GI Man o'War Stakes winner Highland Chief (Ire) has arrived at Arvez Farm in France where the son of Gleneagles (Ire) will stand alongside Honolulu (Ire) and Roman Candle (GB) at a fee of €2,500 for 2025. Last seen finishing fifth in the GIII Singspiel Stakes at Woodbine in October, he retired as the winner of four of his 22 career starts and nearly $800,000 in total prize-money. Jim and Fitri Hay's homebred started his career in Britain with Paul and Oliver Cole, with his biggest success on these shores coming in the 2020 Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot. He later filled the runner-up spot in both the G3 Gordon Stakes at Goodwood and G2 Great Voltigeur Stakes at York, before being transferred to the care of Graham Motion in America where he made the breakthrough at the top level when winning the 2022 Man o'War at Belmont Park. He also won the GIII Sycamore Stakes at Keeneland later that year. Highland Chief is a first crop son of Gleneagles and one of seven winners from eight runners out of the Hays' G3 Give Thanks Stakes heroine Pink Symphony (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}), a half-sister to the G3 Prestige Stakes, G3 Nell Gwyn Stakes and GIII Modesty Handicap winner Fantasia (GB) (Sadler's Wells). His third dam is the European champion two-year-old filly Blue Duster (Danzig) whose victories included the G1 Cheveley Park Stakes and G3 Queen Mary Stakes.

    • Alan pyers ,It's a small world Galah as he was in Queensland for a bit going way back , the horses here were that slow he went home to Nz rather than put up with that ( in the 80's I think)  😆  I must got some drives on some of them after he went rather unfortunately . One horse from Nz Victory Chimes was the most ugly horse i've ever seen lol . pretty sure Alan won some races on it too , but they were going no-where near 2 minutes at that stage and were a lot of battlers rather than fast horses in QLD. times have changed. they're all fast now lol.   I wouldn't go asking about driving grass tracks and keeping your foot in the footrests. 😆 driving on the grass is super rough and you're flat out staying on your seat sometimes . let alone keep your feet up . Alan and Wilson would be bouncing around as much as anyone else lol. bloody gallopers leaving hard foot holes in the turf lol 🤣
