I cannot divulge the particulars but a small wager on Super Pistachio may pay very well. Or not.

Good for you! He's an interesting horse and I'm glad you're not fooled by that first HK start where he was 11th.

Nutty Boy was originally Westphalia (you remember him... I know you do) and was trained by AOB.

He's been around... the G1 Prix du Jockey Club (he was 3rd), G1 Prix Jean Prat, the G1 Poule d'Essai des Poulains (3rd), the G3 Prix de Fountainbleu (2nd), the BC (he was 2nd to Donativum two years ago in the Juvy Turf), the Curragh, Doncaster... he's got some serious frequent flyer miles!

If you look at his last barrier trial (Jan 5th)... look!

Very nice!

Should be at big fat odds so good luck to you my dear. I don't think Tony would have Felix riding him if he didn't have a nice shot.

I'll post my pick when I can think straight. Too many here to make a case for.

Need to go watch the replay of Mister Horse again. He's entered in R4 and has Brett up again... that name. I love that name!

Irian makes his first start in R7. Should be great!

Good luck to Kimberley in R1 (let's hear it for the Class 5 horses!), one of the only girls in HK and to Sound of Silence... one of my favorite cellar dwellers.

Forgot to mention that Straight Forward (Chadwick has the mount...) is the former AOB-trained Freemantle.

Small world!

I'd love to see Brave Kid (moves up to Class 2) stay undefeated (R10).

Retired... Ace of Spades (the former Omerta, SAF). He was 12th 5 times, 14th twice and 5th once. Maybe this will be better for him.

Natural Echo (63 starts... his first HK race was June of 2002), Pachinko (2 wins) , Perfect Match (only 1 HK win) and Hot Sun (ditto) were all retired too.

Thanks for the memories, boys.

* * *

I'm wondering if Algarve might be the kinda forgotten horse in the Mile (?). I'd take a chance... he'll be at big odds.

Might be the closest I come to posting a pick. I just want to watch it... I'll cheer for whoever wins but yeah this one could be a surprise.

Good luck to anyone playing and come home safe, kids.

14 10 CHEERFUL DELIGHTS(L184) H W Lai 126 4 12-1/4 1.36.33


Racing Incident Report
CHEERFUL DELIGHTS was slow to begin. From a wide draw, MOONWALK was taken across behind runners shortly after the start. Approaching the 1300 Metres, WHITE JADE was restrained away from the heels of BEAUTY FLASH (C Soumillon) which shifted in when not clear. C Soumillon was severely reprimanded and advised to ensure he is sufficiently clear when shifting ground in similar circumstances. Inside the 100 Metres, AMIGO, which had a tendency to lay in, shifted in slightly, resulting in CERISE CHERRY being steadied when crowded onto the hindquarters of ALGARVE which was hampered as a consequence. For the major part of the race, BEAUTY LEGEND travelled wide and without cover. When questioned, F Coetzee (SUPER PISTACHIO) stated that it had been anticipated that STRAIGHT FORWARD would lead the race and he was instructed to obtain a position behind that horse if possible. He said SUPER PISTACHIO, which became stirred up behind the barriers, did not show natural speed in the early stages. He said he did consider riding SUPER PISTACHIO along aggressively after the start to obtain a forward position as instructed, however, he felt that had he done this, the horse would not be able to finish off the race. He said for this reason SUPER PISTACHIO raced further back in the field than had been intended. He did say however that when ridden in this manner, SUPER PISTACHIO finished off the race well. When questioned, M Chadwick stated that he had been instructed to lead on STRAIGHT FORWARD if possible, however, if the pace was fast in the early stages, he should take a sit behind the speed. He said STRAIGHT FORWARD began awkwardly and then did not show the pace that he anticipated. He added that STRAIGHT FORWARD hung in in the early stages and when he observed BEAUTY FLASH and WHITE JADE improving to his outside, he allowed those horses to cross rather than make use of STRAIGHT FORWARD to lead. When questioned regarding the disappointing performance of ALGARVE, B Prebble stated that he was surprised in the early stages of the race that the horse did not travel well enough to be able to take up a slightly more forward position. He said it had been hoped that ALGARVE would be able to race a little closer than it was obliged to today. He said irrespective of this, he was able to follow the eventual runner-up, CHATER WAY, throughout the race and that horse was able to draw a margin on ALGARVE in the early part of the Straight. He said, in his opinion, ALGARVE did not show the turn of foot that it had in its previous races and stayed on only one-paced in the run to the line. A veterinary inspection of WHITE JADE after the race did not show any significant findings. BEAUTY FLASH and CHATER WAY were sent for sampling.

Yeah that might have been a good idea.

A six degrees of separation moment... Good luck to Sugar on Top, the former Mr. Jinky. He was trained by a Russell Cameron in NZ... am I crazy or isn't that who had Bulldozer / Borugino for a while after he left HK(?).

Anyway zero HK wins... the best he's ever done was 4th. He's in R1 with Douggie up (!).

To him and (good luck to) to 10 year old Rising Win who is making his 83rd start. (He's rated 14 which I think is officially the lowest I've ever seen, poor guy). 5 wins starting in 2003... isn't it's time to retire this gentleman?

Come home safe.

Bullish Win is a standby starter in R5.

Happy Zero to miss the Stewards Cup, Medic Power misses the Centenary Sprint Cup and Chui stood down...

Retired... Best Power and Rainbow Star.
