Not a bad field on a tight track go the CAV, I will be watching to see how Karuta Queen goes.

amazingly there is a first 4 jackpot of $25,000.00 for the William Reid Stakes tonight, if she got beat would anyone get the first 4 ?

I have to admit, I didn't have a huge interest in horses until I met my wife's family. Even now, I still don't know enough. Fine with me though!

there is an old saying ''i'd rather have an ounce of luck than a ton of judgement'' so with horses (anything really) luck is the most important ingredient of all, so i'm saying you don't need to know, have interest etc you need luck when you do have a flutter

You're not wrong - she's cruising out the front - you look behind her and they're 'going for it' - there was no comparision...lol.

Loved hearing the crowd - was like Melbourne Cup when they open the gates.

Watched it, and it was a training run.

I am not a punter, but is it time to put her up to another distance to challenge her more?

The odds at this distance are not going to promote much action I would have thought.

...but then I am not a punter.

a longer distance will not happen, while she runs it'll be between 5 & up to 6 furlongs

She is a sprinter Chambo, 1000 to 1200 metres is her distance and no promotion is needed when she is racing, they sell out where ever she appears, Ausssies love a champion.

Her half brother sold for $5 million taday

holy Moly - That's huge.

Will be interesting to see if he can 'do' anything.

Doesnt matter if it has any talent, stud fees will ensure a profit.

Would image in the first year stud fees would be $100,000 serving at least 100 mares = $10,000,000

spot on Brodlach & A Mum he'll be 'doing' plenty although these days a lot is 'artificially inseminated' rather than letting nature take its course, then you can feel sorry for the stallion

The good thing regarding this colt is he was bought by an Australian syndicate, rather than overseas interests, now we will just have to wait for his debut on the racetrack hopefully by the spring of next year. Can't wait.

Black Caviar going for her 25th straight win at Randwick on Saturday, weather permitting.

A bigger field taking her on this time with some handy horses running, but she is running better than ever and hard to see an upset.

What a fantastic ride by Luke Nolan, from barrier one he knew that the other jockeys were going to try to box her in but he rode her hard from the start to position her off the rails and with 600 metres to go she was never going to lose.

Entering the straight she was let go and powered home to win her 25th win in 25 starts--unbeaten and untouched

Retired 25 from 25

The Greatest bar none
