Street Cry Treble

• Street Cry -- A treble at Kembla Grange on the 23rd of may 2017 in three successive races. The 2yo maiden saw the Waterhouse/Bott trained, Hualalai win, ridden by Tommy Berry. The two year old colt is out of a Encosta De Lago mare. Then the class 1 Banuelo saluted, the three year old filly is from a Redoutes Choice mare so regally bred as well and then completing the treble was Street Pursuit another Waterhouse/ Bott trained and from a Flying Spur mare. The early death of Street Cry at the age of 16 was certainly a huge loss. His progeny just from the couple of years he was shuttled to Australia has made such an impact on our thoroughbred industry.

• Moshe -- El Venetian won the 1200m maiden the opening event on the card at Kembla. Just wanted to keep tabs on the breed as they are starting to show promise . Moshe is the full brother to Black Caviar and stands at Sun Stud in Victoria. 

• Snitzel -- In the 1100m Seymour maiden Zelsignoret won which was icing on the top for the breed as on Sunday the 21st of May they got a double at Bendigo when Athena Lass won the benchmark 64 and then the Mick Price trained Epic Moment out of a Desert Sun mare won the benchmark 70 over the 1100m trip. 

• Reward For Effort -- Valentines Reward won the benchmark 58 at Kembla Grange. Wanted to mention the Reward For Efforts as they are having a really good run at the moment with one of the breed scoring a very easy win at the Hong Kong meeting last week.

Reward for Effort stands at Chatswood Stud 

• Savabeel --  The Savabeel's have quite a good record when appearing first up and Shauquin is out of a Pins mare. I am starting to think this could be a reliable winning tactic with them. Preparing them to win first up. 

In The Moment

Blackheart Bart on his way to Qeensland, Today 

• Commands -- Brigadeer scored a win at the Casterton, Sunday meeting. I think the commands tend to like the tighter tracks over 1600 to 2400 m. They sit up on the speed and hold off the challengers.

• So You Think -- Solo Heart was a good winner on the friday night Cranbourne meeting and in the 1500m maiden at Kembla Tuesday saw Fournette another of the breed gain their first success. 

• Not a Single Doubt -- The progeny of Not A Single Doubt are winning everything at the moment. I'm sure its to do with the real top liners taking a break and the slightly rain effected tracks are a big plus for the breed.

• Equiano -- In the benchmark 70 at Seymour Chapel Road the Mick Price trained gelding got home . He is out of an Exceed and Excel mare.

Weir and the Rock

• Our first port of call for the 4/05/2017 is the XXXX Wagga Gold Plate at Wagga which was won by the Freedman trained, Santa Ana Lane.He is by Lope De Vega out of the Fastnet Rock mare Fast Fleet. The gelding has had 4 wins from 17 starts with total prize money of  $272,000.

• Lope De Vega stands at Ballylinch Stud in Ireland .They also stand Fascinating Rock a son of Fastnet Rock.

	Fastnet Rock the aussie bred Danehill stallion, now Europes leading stallion for stakes winners this season. Through the maternal grand dam, Gatana you find Australasias most powerful stallion lines in Sir Tristram and Biscay. Sir Tristram is mainly remembered for his stayers who won the Melbourne Cup like Empire Rose,Brew and Gurners Lane but Gatana is by Marauding his son who won the Golden Slipper . Fastnet Rock kicking up a storm at Coolmore  Warrnambool day three and we saw High Church win the Warrnambool Cup with Damian Lane on board. The High Chapparal gelding had been brewing up for a win over the last couple of starts and found the wet track and distance to his liking . His win was just one of many for Darren Weir over the three day carnival which helped break his own record he set last year . His tally 350 wins Australia wide. Another interesting winner for Weir was in the benchmark 78, over the 1100m where we saw Jameka's half brother record a win. Nikitas the 3yo colt by Snitzel out of Mine Game is bred to be a superstar, but this was only his second win from 14 starts. In the opening race of the day, the novice hurdle we saw a win to the Fastnet Rock gelding Try Four, who is also trained by Darren Weir. The Fastnet Rocks can do anything and so can Weir .  Danian Lane riding High Church to victory Coming up the next couple of weeks we have the Brisbane and Adelaide carnivals. During the week we saw fifteen thoroughbreds arrive in Brisbane from New Zealand for the winter carnival but before they get their chance to show off their talent, we head to Adelaide. Where on saturday, Schweppes Oaks Day, we see the running of the first million dollar race. The Group 1 UBET Classic Robert Sangster Stakes. The man,nicknamed the Magic Man and widely known as one of the best jockeys in the world João Moreira will ride at the Morphettville meeting. His record in the saddle this season in Hong Kong alone is amazing,  notching up 135 winners from 526 rides.He will ride the Holy Roman Emperor mare Shiedel while English by Encosta De Lago will start the favorite.   Chautauqua and English

Warrnambool Three Day Carnival

     The start of the Warrnambool 3 day carnival .The traditional Warrnambool race meeting has been held as long as the settlement has existed. The first organised races were held in 1848, only eight months after Warrnambool was settled. That meeting was held near Lady Bay and Lake Pertobe, known as Jetty Flats.The first Grand Annual Steeplechase over the now famous cross-country course was run on 13th June 1872. In 1873 Warrnambool’s feature flat race, the Warrnambool Cup, is held for the first time in March.
