I have. A trotter called McShane. Saw him reading a racebook once or twice. -
Wellington a fabulous place for racehorses then Chief. Should of given him a race start to thrill the locals.😎 Great pictures on his ship you posted Chief 👍. was just reading a funny story where Phar Lap not only had a sand roll on the ship as well, but used to Jack up a bit when Tommy wasn't around so Tomm had to eat in the Bosuns cabin so the horses could see him , and sleep beside his stall as well. I would think it is the human that has the 'Connection' issues and not the horse, but that's what they say anyway. Have never found a smarter horse than any dog myself. But I guess if you're a famous in history one , the stories become elaborate. -

SOUTHSIDE RACING ACQUIRES EQUINETRAIN FACILITY AT PAKENHAM TRAINING CENTRE Share Article Share on Facebook Share on X Share with email Share link Southside News Sep 02, 2025 Southside Racing is pleased to announce the acquisition of EquineTrain, a privately owned, state-of-the-art racehorse training and rehabilitation facility that currently services local and visiting trainers at the Pakenham Training Centre. The facility will be rebranded as the Southside High Performance Centre and operate under an enhanced model, designed to further strengthen Southside Racing’s commitment to delivering world-class resources for participants, horses, and the broader racing industry. The Southside High Performance Centre will provide cutting-edge services to prepare, revive, and treat racehorses at every stage of their campaign - whether gearing up for competition, recovering from intense track work, or rehabilitating post-injury. With water walkers, high-speed treadmills, cold spas, and spacious day paddocks, the facility is designed to optimise equine performance, and Southside Racing are actively exploring innovative new therapies and technologies to further enhance horse welfare and recovery. Neil Bainbridge, Chief Executive Officer of Southside Racing, said: “This is an exciting step for Southside Racing. The Southside High Performance Centre will give all trainers and their horses access to the very best in training and recovery, enhancing the standard of care and performance across our racing community.” General Manager of Racing, Alastair Dwyer, added: “The acquisition allows us to build on the already outstanding reputation of the facility, while expanding opportunities for local and visiting trainers. It positions Southside Racing as a leader in equine performance and rehabilitation in Victoria.” Further details about the Southside High Performance Centre will be announced in due course. -

Myakkabelle performed with distinction in her three-year-old season, but a stakes win eluded the Ben and Ryan Foote-trained mare. She won two and placed in six of her 10 starts last term, including placings in the Gr.1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m), Gr.2 Lowland Stakes (2100m), and Gr.2 David & Karym Ellis Fillies Classic (2000m). “Her three-year-old season was good without a lot of luck,” Ryan Foote said. “From a wide draw she had to get back in the Oaks, which made it a bit hard. “We have given her a good break and she seems to have come back really well.” The daughter of Ware Decree placed in her resuming trial over 1300m at Ellerslie on Tuesday and Foote received positive feedback from jockey Vinnie Colgan. “She was just there for a day out yesterday,” Foote said. “We were very happy with her trial and the way she came through it. Vinnie was very happy with how she went and how she felt. “She is a horse that doesn’t show a lot in her trials, but she looks to be in for a good prep after yesterday.” Myakkabelle holds a nomination for next month’s Gr.1 Livamol Classic (2040m) and is 14th in order of entry for the Ellerslie feature. “It might be a season too early for her (for the Livamol) but we thought we would put a nom in just in case she comes up very well,” Foote said. “At the end of a big three-year-old season sometimes the mares can be a bit funny at the start of their four-year-old season, so we will see how she goes.” Foote was also pleased with the trial of stablemate The Odyssey in his 1300m heat, and he is hopeful of a big spring from the Zacinto gelding. “He has never been a horse to light up at the trials,” Foote said. “Vinnie was happy with how he felt. He is one to look out for when he gets up to 2000m.” The Odyssey won the inaugural $350,000 Remutaka Classic (2100m) last year before going on to place in the Gr.3 Waikato Cup (2400m), and Foote would like to see him score another feature scalp this time in. “We have given him a lot of time,” he said. “He hasn’t had that many starts, and he is a six-year-old now, so he is fully matured and ready to go, so it would be nice to see him come up well.” Former stable runner Greenwich has returned to the Footes Cambridge barn following a couple of years in Hong Kong and they were happy enough with his 1100m hit-out on Tuesday. He won both of his trials for the Footes as a two-year-old before his sale to Hong Kong, where he won two races and nearly $430,000 in prizemoney, and they are delighted to have him back in the barn. “We had him early on and sold him up to Hong Kong,” Foote said. “He was a very good galloper and he seems to have come back the same. “He is a really big, well-conditioned horse and he was only there for a very quiet trial yesterday. He is still slightly on the bigger side, so he will look to have another trial and will be more competitive next time.” Foote was also pleased with the respective 1100m trials of Yulong Investments’ trio of Azeele, Lough Eske and Judicial. “All three of them are quite cool horses and they seem to have come back really well,” he said. “We have given them a few weeks off in the paddock and they have come back in with a lot more life about them. I am really happy with the three of them.” View the full article -

An untimely injury has ruled champion jockey Michael McNab out for the bulk of spring racing. McNab was set to partner a two-year-old at Tuesday’s Ellerslie trials when he was kicked and subsequent x-rays at Auckland Hospital revealed a leg fracture below the knee. “I have spoken to Michael, and he is really gutted,” his agent Aidan Rodley said. “He had made such a strong start to the season and was obviously hoping to capitalise on that through the spring and beyond. “It looks like he will be out for between six and eight weeks.” McNab’s length of time on the sidelines will be confirmed after he visits a surgeon. The injury has come at a heartbreaking time for the two-time champion jockey, who had made an electric start to the 2025/26 season. He had posted 17 winners to be six clear of Bruno Queiroz at the top of the New Zealand Jockeys’ Premiership. Top-class mare La Crique was one of McNab’s key sprint mounts following their runner-up finish in last Saturday’s Gr.1 Proisir Plate (1400m) at Ellerslie. A new rider will obviously be required to partner the Simon and Katrina Alexander-trained representative, should she run next in the Gr.1 Howden Insurance Mile (1600m) at Te Rapa on September 27.
