I did hear Megan Woods name mentioned, but apparently they had a quick poll at Petone, and the staff threatened boycott stating they would need two more pie warmers. I can confirm the new CEO is male, stale and pale.

NEWS FLASH NEWS FLASH JJ FLASH has put his name forward for the role but has been rejected for a variety of reasons, the most prominent being he's tasteless. Never mind JJ. No doubt you will continue to grip onto the one thing that keeps you happy.

I'm ready and available I'm very keen and I love horses I will be at Cambridge at 4.00am tomorrow morning if anyone wants to use my services

CUBO are the company appointed to select a merry band of men and women to put forward for the role. Robin Hood should apply so he can give back to the owners some worthwhile prizemoney. Kerrie Cox is CUBO EQUINE. Kerrie worked for Gary and Mark Chittock for the past 15 years as Bloodstock Manager, until she recently set up this new venture. I am sure there will be no Breeder influence in the appointment.........will there????

I'll have $100 each way on ABANDONED in the last please Always remember. in racing management, stupidity is NOT a handicap.

You may recall my comments regarding a first starter last Friday evening that was also nominated for Flemington today. Here is the update from trainer Liam Howley about today's race. https://essentials.ardex.com.au/Media/476/10075/a3727e7f-87b4-43cb-8d83-2616de9c2e38?utm_campaign=Sport Journal&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Revue newsletter

Thomass's tip for the day has to be Explosive Jack.

At the very attractive odds I am having a punt on Sydney Cup winner, Selino, in the Top 3 / Top 5 / Top 10 markets. Will be running on when most of the others are breathless from chasing the favourite.

I think a tankful on the Local Government owned Three Waters is a sound investment in the race. The Pommie trainer and Irish rider like ice in their whisky, so it looks like a Dundeel to me. I may have water on the brain but here goes. Bottoms Up.

There will be a hundred happy folk after Station One just bolted in at Cranbourne in the first leg of the quaddie. All owners are people who receive the daily Australian SPORTS JOURNAL email (I highly recommend it) who joined the syndicate to race the horse. ( I have enough so didn't partake.) Liam Howley has been very patient but has always said this was a good horse and a first up kill was planned. A dead jump out a couple of weeks ago with some excellent trackwork and tonight was the target, with another planned. Liam sent an email with his thoughts this morning ....early.....and advised to have a bet before 9am Australian time as he was going to accept to also run in a race on Tuesday at Flemington. He was very confident about running well tonight as a lead up to Tuesday. The $26 was much appreciated. Thank you Ladbrokes. It started at $5. You gotta love these rare occasions.

So you've got a photo of The Singing Budgie in your wallet - you take it swimming with you where you expose it to your wizened up old fella. Life has certainly treated you well. Geez I hope it runs second for all our sakes.

Used to be my go to Karaoke song, and I was brilliant at it too, and only got better after every drink. I might sing it again and post a video when Chapada runs Top 4 in the CUP. Really good run yesterday and both trainer and rider were thrilled with it's effort.

I love the Melbourne Spring Carnival. In my opinion it is the best time of the year for "value" punting and is made even better when you get the daily odds increases with the Australian bookies ( yes, it is something you guys standing round the pie warmer in Petone need to introduce). This weekend's target is the Caulfield Cup. The favorite has looked very good, but I am very keen on the two who chased him home in the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes, namely Young Werther and Chapada. If you get a chance have a look at the replay. Both made up many lengths in the last 400 metres to finish less than 1.75 lengths from the winner. Significantly, they both drop down the weight scale on the winner, which is a bonus. I am a fan of both trainers. O'Brien has been upbeat about Young Werther for months and the other bloke has already trained a Melbourne Cup winner, so he knows the routine. At $13 a place, Chapada is VALUE and multi him into Young Werther in the Melbourne Cup and Verry Elleegant in the Cox Plate and who knows.

I thought the two that ran first and second in the Group 2 Edward Manifold were both entitled to respect in this, but the bookies are not at all impressed (Elusive Express is at $11 and Yearning is at $21). I will each way them both for an interest.

Grant was involved with all the Canterbury Race Images back in the day.

I've just raised a glass of my best champagne to you both. There only a few in our elite higher bracket of thinking and whilst the sheep are getting drenched, the rest of us will watch with baited breath, for the politicians to totally fuck everything up. Imagine having the fish and chip lady, the fraudulent accountant's son and Megan, the pie eater as your financial and life mentors. I suppose we could also call on the fisherman with the damaged nostrils to advise us how supply chains work.

Jesus wept .....again.

I have yet to see Rogie line one up at Royal Ascot........ or dashing Dave for that matter. But the Mighty MICHAEL has.

Jesus wept Go and give yourself an uppercut.

Was put into level 3, Aidan, was put. Get your grammar correct please, and promise us you will never grow another beard or moustache again during lockdown. It doesn't suit you.

Yes a HUGE congratulations to South Island racing's Brad Pitt. No question he was headed for a modelling career before golf, punting, women and grumpiness set in in those teenage years. I predict a MASSIVE Cup Week in 2021. Go MICKEY

Depends on how much the late quaddie pays in Melbourne today.

Well done Michael. This is the best horse to come out of the SI for a long time. Hopefully she stays in NZ before taking on the big time next season. Interestingly I just got an email today from a major Melbourne stable offering shares in a horse that ran well here mid week, was vetted yesterday and sold yesterday afternoon and flys to Melbourne next Wednesday. They love our bloodstock in OZ.

Don't worry about OLD BILL. He's still watching porn and trying to find a winner. Hey BILLY BOY..........you still using that Choroform aftershave? What does BILLY BOY and a dentist have in common? They knock you out before drilling the cavity. We're watching you Bill. Behave yourself now.
