Spot on by you Mr Galah. Swayzee after getting the lead after half a lap was an unstoppable force. Repelled the strong bid by Leap To Fame to hold him off well. The Fast ones and the BIG ones were action tonight . KEAYANG Zahara winning by lengths at Melton on their trotters night in the Just believe Group 1 trot . Gus destroyed the trotters in Brisbane too trotting home a brilliant last quarter from the back of the field. Also in Brisbane Greg Mitchell's new Purchase from NZ has won his first 2 starts in junior FFA's . WHO's Delight . defeated my old NZ fav horse 'Turn It Up' 2nd. looks like he's being super - seeded lol😂 At Menangle Don Hugo blasted to a victory in the FFA , and in the Paleface Adios Classic CAPTAIN"S MISTRESS was so impressive I think she could be the Best yet ? She Left the field struggling by lengths behind in 1.49. She is Supersonic and will be a match for Don Hugo or Leap To fame anyday . and also Mick Boots New star horse was in action at Menangle . Introducing to you the 'Jamal' Oz equal horse = HOLLYWOOD STRIP. could be the next Superstar the way he's going. Hollywood Strip , a Sweet Lou 3 year-old, made it 7 from 7 with another easy win. Has gone 1.50 miles his last five starts now (including some as a 2 yearold last Spring) for trainer-driver Brad Hewitt. is going to test Jamal and the kiwi's real hard at some stage in a Derby or two or the Velocity even. so the PICK 6 for me tonight backing the best ones going of Keayang Zahara $1.04, GUS $1.28, Who'sDelight $1.80, Don Hugo $1.04, Captain's Mistress $1.05 and Hollywood Strip $1.24. WON and Paid $3.24 🤣😂💰 😎 retired now -

i would label you a very,very poor form analyst billy. the horse had won 8 races at 1200,but never beyond.So when you say it needed further,your just showing your ignorance.. Also had you bothered to look at its recent videos you would have seen runs beyond 1200, where the jockeys have taken off miles too early,only to come to the end of its run because it excels at 1200,not any further. .Always ridden poor. as to having its chance today. Did you even watch the video.did you even see the head on. Again,you seem to have no idea if you did. anyway,i won't engage in debating with you after this post as i know i am just going to get a silly reply like the last time i did and like the one you posted on this topic.. its tragic for the horse and the horses connections that the horse has lost its life. -

The death of the G1 Irish Champion Stakes winner Economics, as confirmed on Friday, has rocked those connected with him at Poonawalla Stud Farms in India. The five-year-old son of Night Of Thunder had been due to cover his first mare but was struck down by a displacement of his large colon. Having survived the initial surgery, Economics developed complications thereafter and could not be saved. Simone Poonawalla, managing director of Poonawalla Stud Farms, paid a heartfelt tribute to the young stallion, describing his demise as a “deeply personal loss”. She told TDN, “Economics had colic which required surgery to correct a large colon displacement. Without surgery there was no chance of the horse surviving. He came out of the surgery well but the hypoxic injury the gut sustained due to this displacement unfortunately resulted in him developing colitis post-surgery. Despite our best efforts and the best veterinary care from Dr. Phiroz Khambatta, Dr. Claire Hawkes, Dr. Hasneyn Mirza and Dr. Partheban, he could not be saved. “I have never seen a horse so strong and brave even through these agonising days of hope and despair.” Economics, whose victories also included the G2 Dante Stakes and G2 Prix Guillaume d'Ornano, had been recruited to stand among a strong line-up of stallions at the farm in Pune. Among those on the Poonawalla Stud roster are Territories, sire of Group 1 winners Lazzat and Rougir, former National Stud resident Mutasaabeq, the multiple Group 2 winner Chindit, and Satono Impresa, a son of Deep Impact. Poonawalla added, “This is the first time we've lost a stallion to colic since 1955, which makes this even more devastating. “We are utterly anguished. This is not just a loss of a super racehorse who had all the makings of becoming a great stallion, but a deeply personal loss to us. “We have laid him to rest with the most dignified burial he so rightfully deserves, and he will forever remain in a special place with us.” William Haggas, who trained Economics for Shaikh Isa Salman Al Khalifa, said, “Obviously this is very sad news for us because we had some wonderful days with him, but I am especially sad for the Poonawalla family. We had hoped that he would have a wonderful life in India but it was not to be. I know that they will have done everything in their power to try to save him.” The post ‘Utterly Anguished’: Poonawalla Team Devastated by Loss of Economics appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Tragic, so sad to here that, and this race the unluckiest of all, thoughts go out to the connections, and the ole war horse.
