Oh that is awesome, Coachie!!! :tro:

Thrilled for you!

I kinda had the opposite night... :D :wf

VERY happy you did well (although not surprised!). :)

I had the exacta for $1 too. Had a real good night.

Was close on most of the races I didn't hit.

You'll get them next time.

brilliant!


i mean............ brillante!

This thing is going to pay huge, no? I mean there really isn't a solid favorite or anything...

The barrier draw...

http://japanracing.jp/_news2012/120601.html

Couldn't get any better for Lucky Nine.... perfect... but Glorious Days has it pretty good too cause even though he's in the 14 hole quite a few winners have come from that post. (As long as it doesn't rain he's good).

Not because the old HK runners are my favorites but really... the locals are a nice bunch but there isn't one among them who really stands out as far as this particular race goes (to disrespect to Apapane, Marcellina or Rose Kingdom as I'm a big fan of all three). Is Sadamu Patek gonna be the likewarm favorite? Hmmm.

It's early yet but as of right now I'm thinking maaaaybe...

Lucky Nine
Strong Return, Glorious Days

and am still looking at both Eishin Apollon and Real Impact as I'm not sure if I should go with sentiment (which has both been good and scrrewed me lately) or not. If sentiment wins out the girls get the 3rd and 4th spots (Apapane and Marcellina) instead of the two I just mentioned.

Lucky Nine though... winnah. :cool:

I think this Glorious Days (AUS) HK shipper might reel mine in. Hoping he gets in trouble and my mare hits the lead at the 200 and hangs on tight.

Nice @45/1! Mine was a dog.

Good for you, Coachie!

I had nada and am still really surprised where some of these really fine horses finished.

Doubtful anyone cares and maybe I shouldn't be saying it on the Japanese thread instead of HK but now what? Who gets HOY cause it aint gonna be the Dragon and now Lucky Nine...

Oh well.

orfevre looked good last nite. is he back on track for the arc???

No decision yet but I'd bet he will go (and win it).

What do you think?

http://japanracing.jp/_news2012/pdf/120624.pdf

It was fantastic to see him back!

yeah i think he could definitely win....as long as they don't make the mistakes they made with deep impact in their preparation.

VERY happy!

On the trip to France...

Story of Jiang Tai Shou trainer pond

It was a long journey of 30 hours from starting the Toresen Ritto ", was relieved without fever after arrival. Tomorrow keep in motion the argument, people around is scheduled to begin training on Monday. Had just arrived may have, it is a little excited, I think I have the horse calm you get used to the environment. Torture about the future, I'm going to do it by ear while watching the weather and the state of the horse. "

Next stop - the Prix Foy.
