Just to add,Alexy may well hit the 300 at Forbury,its favourite track,will need to race 299 this weekend then on to Forbury,I'm sure if the spitfire can get to 300 surely he must land one,lots of time.

He broke under pressure twice during the running... the horse should be retired from racing.

Spitty won a trial yesterday in 2-01.6 at Forbury. 

The non-winners race 3, same track same distance winner ran a MR2-01.2 

Spittys overall time of 2-46.3 trial was faster than the time of the 3rd placed horse of 2-47.3

Yes I know workouts and trials are different to race day. 

Im not going to write wee Spitty off just yet.

Maybe he would do better in a very small field,a field of 1.🤓

Maybe from the naughty behaviour, I read about on here breaking twice ...

If I break up, that's a really good way to get out of this racing thing 🤓

No idea.

After Dennis the menace getting 300 hundred races from Alexy,I think Spitfire is being a bit optimistic looking for a early retirement.

I saw a pic of Dennis on HRNZ with a recent winner of his, he looked fine, like a nice person, enthusiastic to be in the game. (Yeah I know just that driving needs a bit more off-road practice). 

Anyway he's not the owner nor trainer of Spitty anymore. So Spitty might only have a few more in him ... Who knows. 

I'll still be hoping he can run another place or get that very allusive win.

Who's got him now?

Just to add ,Dennis O Connells old war horse Alexy will tomorrow set a record for most races ever,everytime he races from now on he sets a new one.
