I thought it was a very good day at Felmington. Thrack looked beautiful and I must admit I was very impressed with the new stables and parage ring.

On the betting side I started off badly (as a result of my own stupidity), was keen on Rose Ceremony all week and even on the day but when I saw the books but up $7 on Gabrailter Campion I changed thinking that it should be able to beat it home and this price was well above what I had thought it was be (around $4). I still don't no what to make of it though, Rose Ceremony wins but i think Gabrilter Campion was badly held up and should of won.

Backed Orange County, got $4.6 on track which was a good price.

Backed Marasco, got out to $2.6 which was very generous. Just as I had thought, Flemington would suit.

Backed Bon Hoffa at $5 on track, thought it was well in getting all that weight off D Madonna. Thought that she run a good race but the weight just showed out in the end.


Best of all in the last Master O'rielly. Couldn't be bothered waiting around the betting ring so just took $3.3 as I didn't think they would give too much more, my mistake though ended up getting out to $3.9 to my suprise. Won very impressively and was a very good cup trial.

Thought the return to Fleminton was great and really enjoyed the racing back at headquarters. Look forward to the racing there this spring.
