I'm delighted, that's my first one. She did the job anyway,.

that was super and she was working the best she ever has in the past week. We kept her fresh and sweet, brought her to the beach the other day and I don't think I ever saw a horse as fresh on the beach!. It was a good omen but she hadn't run for a few weeks as she gave herself a nick one day out in the paddock and it set us back a bit. On form she deserved it and easy ground and a good pace was a big help. Nathan also gave her a cracking ride. we only have five horses in and I've never had three runners on one day, never mind in one race! However they were all fresh and well so we said we'd run them. . I have great owners - Michelle (Shannon) and David (Mooney, partner) are fantastic and Garry Fleming is a dream to have. Garry is so big into racing, loves to see his horses running and his two ran well and it was good to see Phoenix Open coming back.

would you believe that wasn't a surprise as she works really well at home. She has been tricky at times in her races, is a bit fussy and you have to keep her sweet so we put the visor on today. We changed things, jumped forward and tried to keep it simple and Nathan (Crosse, winning jockey) gave her a peach. She had a few average runs last year and kept dropping down the handicap. It took me two runs to get a handle on her and the head gear worked out. I had a chat with Mark Bird (handicapper) before racing and asked him not to drop her any further as she'd fall out of the page soon, being rated 40. She has plenty of ability at home, works very well and we'll look for something similar again.
