    • Maori Time (1.51.5) , a very fast mare trained by ex-pat kiwi Brent Lilley. a fine trainer who specialises with trotters in Victoria. He trained Queen Elida to fast times recently as well . Brent learnt his craft working at Barry Purdon's in his youth days. also a very fine trainer of trotters for decades.  She had a crack at that big Sweden Trot , the mega rich Elitloppitt in 2018 when sent along sponsored by Aldebaran Park. when at her fast peak. but failed unfortunately. Interdominion Grand Final Trot winners Just Believe and The Locomotive also attempted Sweden, and failed  , since then . They must have bloody good trotters up that way lol.   The Locomotive has a mile time of 1.52.1 so was 2nd best before Keayang Zahara came along. he's now 3rd best  (fastest) after her astonishing Win last night.

    • Spendthrift's Goodall (f, 3, Yaupon–Moon Over Mag Bay, by Malibu Moon) made it two in a row Saturday, capturing Oaklawn Park's Purple Martin Stakes in authoritative fashion. Shipped in from Fair Grounds for the six-furlong test, Goodall was overshadowed in the wagering by 8 1/4-length track and trip debut winner River Wind (Lexitonian). The latter hopped at the break and settled in third, just to the inside of Goodall, who pressured the :21.53 and :44.70 pace set by You're in Heaven (Global Campaign) from the inside. Taken back off the heels of the frontrunner, Goodall shifted to the outside and quickly collared her. The bay surged clear, laid down a :56.63 split for the five furlongs, and found more down the lane, drawing clear to post a 4 1/2-length win over River Wind, who shook free from traffic off the turn after some tight moments that saw her brush the rail. Unveiled Jan. 17 in a six-furlong maiden special weight at Fair Grounds, Goodall set all the pace that day only to be passed late. After finishing second, she returned in a similar maiden at the same track and distance Feb. 14 and ran out a determined half-length victress. Mark Toothakre purchased Goodall's dam for $20,000 at the 2021 Keeneland November sale, then bred Goodall in partnership with William and Corrine Heiligbrodt. The trio sold the filly for $62,000 as a yearling at the Fasig-Tipton Kentucky July sale to Tom McCrocklin, who reoffered her at last year's OBS Spring sale, where Spendthrift came on board to purchase her for $525,000. Toothakre is Spendthrift's stallion sales manager, while Yaupon stands at the Central Kentucky farm. Goodall's dam has a 2-year-old full-sister to Goodall, who brought $50,000 from Briggs Stakes at last year's Fasig-Tipton July sale, and was bred back to Yaupon for 2026.
