Cup weekend recap – 17th September 2016

The Grand Prix Stakes

Winning connections: New Terrain – Woogle Wood – Blake Pinney

Comments from the stable: – “Chuffed with this win, I must say. The race was an afterthought – New Terrain is being primed more for epic than long races, so he has very limited XP – and a week ago he was unfit with signs of IP, plus I had no jockey (planning is soooo overrated Wink ), so it was fingers crossed rather than champagne on ice at Woogle Wood. The race panned out nicely; laying up near the lead and winding it up towards the end. Kudos must go to Angel, who gave me some sage words of wisdom regarding jockey RI’s.”

The Golden Slipper

Winning connections: Alhaarth Charmz – Racing Stripes – Johna Bonham

Comments from the stable: – “I am really shocked as she picked up an injury in her last race so has been on very light training. I bred her myself from McChippy. Have a cheap stallion I purchased last season who has now bred some outstanding foals. Her next goal will be the Ascot Vale.”

The Champagne Stakes

Winning connections: Admiration – Angel’s Flight – Virgil Vaulet

Comments from the stable: – “ Admiration –  something regarded as impressive or worthy of respect. A very impressive win smashing the 2yo WR on dead against maybe one of the best 2yo medium class we have seen in a long time. There are still a few medium runners out there that haven’t made their debuts yet that will be joining the party. But we are looking forward to the challenge in the seasons to come and it should be lots of fun and one big soiree.”  Wink

The Sires Produce

Winning connections: Rollin In The Deep – Bristol Turks– Elton Cotterell

Comments from the stable: – “Rollin had a very good heat and I was hopeful going in to the final but of course you can never say for sure, especially with a lot of quality in the field. She did have a very good start and never really looked back. Last season I was a runner up in Sires so winning it this time around is very satisfying indeed. Well happy with this.”

The Great Sphinx Cup

Winning connections: Bounty Hunter – Angel’s Flight – Virgil Vaulet

Comments from the stable: –  “A great wise man once said; “Forget about the great astounding victory. Focus on winning small victories every day, the final victory will come by itself”

Bounty Hunter made us proud today, storming home in a world record time 1:25.695 avg speed 61.59km/h, to give us an unprecedented 6th Great Sphinx Cup against one of the best Sphinx fields assembled. Anytime you have a chance to match up pound for pound and beat the best racer in the game (Manor Park) twice in the same weekend you have to be exultant. I thank him for his graciousness in defeat for reaching out and congratulating us, much respect! Clap :-K

The Golden Rule applies: He who has the gold makes the rules. Wink ;-)
