Thought I heard it all in terms of the downside until I read recently about the horse (Cleaning Up) that crashed through the outer fence at Belmont the other day, tumbling into the water. The horse swam out to a sandbank, stood there for a while then started the swim back to shore, drowning before reaching it

Any thought of ownership that might have been building-up inside has now been totally quashed!

A friend of a friend dabbled in racehorse ownership some time back. Switched over to the harness world more recently & has enjoyed it so much (financially & socially) he reckons he'll never go back to the thoroughbreds.

Egomaniac

Connections of WA's Egomaniac are almost certain to pay the $82.5K late entry fee for the Victoria Derby if Egomaniac performs well in Saturday's Group 3 Norman Robinson Stakes over 2000m at Caulfield. Egomaniac arrived at his Caulfield stable last Thursday and has reportedly settled well.

Cheers watsonnek, wasn't aware Egomaniac had gone east. Maybe part-owner Janelle Harvey is keeping things on a low profile after the Plastered saga.
