    • I didn't say I was an authority but hell I'm not one of the people diminishing his achievements. You chose one aspect of what I said which may or may not have been an embellishment when congratulating him on his achievement. I'm surprised you haven't come to the defence of any of the female award recipients who have been rubbished by @Huey.
    • On the heels of his GI American Turf Stakes win at Churchill Downs in May, Zulu Kingdom (Ire) (r, 3, Ten Sovereigns {Ire}–Zindziswa, by Smart Strike) did it again, capturing Saratoga's $200,000 GIII Manilla Stakes Friday. The cut back in distance was no problem for the Chad Brown trainee, who is now five for six since making his American debut last August at the Spa. At 2-5 in the Manilla, Zulu Kingdom broke sharply and stuck his nose in front for several strides before Maui Strong (Kitten's Joy) cut the corner to his inside to take control of the pace. The winner tracked him in second through fractions of :23.19 and :46.85, breathing down his neck all the while. Floated a little wide on the final turn, Zulu Kingdom was slow to change leads, but quickly asserted himself, powering clear to run the mile in 1:33.11. Capitol Hill (Into Mischief) closed late from far back to nab second, while Tiz Dashing (Tiz the Law) was third. Zulu Kingdom won the GII Pilgrim and GIII With Anticipation at two, then took the one-mile Columbia Stakes at Tampa in March before his win in the American Turf. O-Madaket Stables, Michael Dubb, William Strauss, and Michael J. Caruso; B-Ecurie Peregrine SAS (Ire); T-Chad Brown; J-Flavien Prat.     The post GISW Zulu Kingdom Does It Again in Manilla at the Spa appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Just for you galah,  did a reel last night on the hard working ladies in our industry. 
    • Thanks for the great report TABman .   yes have just viewed 'Mark and Nathan Purdon Racing' on Facebook , and someone is filming the guys daily at Ian Guerneys Brisbane place , working OscarB and Rubira. Has RUBIRA 100% spot on ready for tonight.  Is excellent viewing and shows Mark working and washing the horse as Calm as can be.  Mark is so relaxed and normal likeable bloke it is ridiculous. He is the Aussie Grant Dixon. Just so humble and great people. Horsemanship just 2nd nature to these greats. No wonder Natalie was attracted to both of them ! 😂😎.  Thank you for letting us know about Brooke. Embarrassed I never heard of her before. She got a bit lost last night from the bad draw, and relying on someone to Carter her into the race from last in the running. That went no-where and just run her off the track in the end. Treacherous Baby No Luck so far , but the tide might turn. Amanda Turnbull could nearly of been one of the greats. Should of stuck to Menangle and got big owners , but went home to Bathurst to compete with her million relatives there mainly . there are that many Turnbulls it's ridiculous. Patriarch Tony Turnbull winning the Interdominion twice with Hondo Grattan back in the 70's.  Amanda's main stable worker is a young QLD lass Isobel Ross ( has won 5 group 3 's to date is about her level) , and she is Donnie Ross grand-daughter. Don Ross was the Clerk of the course for well over 30 years and is a Queensland Racing Hall of Fame Inductee . Helped us out with that many horse issues on and off track , that EVeryone has a Story about him. Passed away at age 90 recently. RIP Don. near the best horseman going that didn't drive races.  Here's the great man in action though , doing some training !! 🥰 Early Queensland Harness racing days 🤣😆   lucky we had some Evolution 😁👍    
    • No, you made a statement about Sam learning his training trade from his grandfather Herb.  Now it's Wallace Young.  I thought he was quite an old trainer in the 1970's.  I don't think meeting someone a couple of times gives automatic authority on all things Sam.
