Favorite win of the weekend?
There were so many awesome performances this weekend... Buena Vista doing it with such ease, Paco Boy winning for fun, Querari in the Premio Presidente della Republica (my boy was 2nd...), the huge Singapore races, Miss Europa (in the Krefelder Stutenpreis. Welcome back!), Marchand D'Or AND Benbaun (be still my heart) coming in 1, 2 in the Saint-Georges today at Longchamp, Albert the Fat at Doomben, the Preakness...
What was your favorite win of the weekend? Not the best... your favorite for whatever reason? All through Dubai I kept faith... He missed all of 2009 because of injury. Prior to that he had 3 wins (and 2 2nds) from 9 starts. Since his return (late January at Meydan) he's run 8 times (3 in this month alone and it's only half over). All through the Dubai contest I kept saying some day, some day... Yesterday was that day. Cheers to Mick Channon and Rileyskeepingfaith who finally got a win yesterday at Newbury. No easy task... it was a 13 horse field. Applause to his stablemates Hali and Youmzain who probably gave him some tips or motivation or something! My favorite win this weekend. Singapore was great, as were so many races but this? I've waited for this for a long time. Tell me about yours. Who, where and why. |
