Redleg

I am reading Wild Horses, a book by Dick Francis, with as usual, his use of the horse racing world as an ingredient.

Black Caviar, what can you say? Possibly the best this country has produced. Untouched and runs them off their feet. I feel privileged to have seen her run. Wow. I just feel so excited and it gives me hope of getting another good horse one day, one that I can think about all day, in between thinking about my grand daughter and the MFC.

If you read between the lines in the line I posted, I think I have complied.

Both Davis and Ward are fine young, honest men and would be capable of leading the new club.

Just saw the GWS calendar setup on the news and Sheeds had Ward and Davis beside him. Captain and Vice Captain or Co Captains?

Has anyone noticed the huge amount of new topics started daily. It seems like every thought gets its own topic.

Unless he is injured, it was a pathetic run. Hopefully tuesday will be better.

Not sure if I mentioned Noble Game at 3.20 today, sunday, at Sale. Should go close to winning. Man of Awe at 1.35 Tuesday at Stawell. First start.

I agree. Grabbing it off the pack and kicking the snap goal was his start. Hopefully he still has that ability.

Sadly I tend to agree. Hope I am wrong also.

Don't forget Flash, who carries the indigenous leadership hopes and was suggested by many to be Captain last year.

Is that a serious question? I was just pointing out that we will have some unhappy players in the group. If that unhappiness manifests itself in form or attitude or behaviour it will need addressing, that is my point.

I have no problems with the Coach stamping his mark on the club as it is his head on the block. I just point out there are going to be a few boys who will be upset with his call.

Green and Moloney must be extremely disappointed. Our most passionate player, who just happens to be the current club B & F doesn't even make the leadership group of 8. I can see some resentment against the new Coach.

No Dispute just won. Other meeting was abandoned. Noble Game at Sale 2200m on Sunday.

On her disclosed form she would have no difficulty at the 1400. Given she wins hands and heels easily I would imagine that unless she is not herself or is injured she would win. I don't say that however would necessarily be the case over longer trips. She has never felt the whip and has hardly been tested and has never been pushed out to win, but rather always eased down. She accelerates in a flash without effort and puts 4-5 lengths on the field effortlessly. She is a sensational sprinter and one of the best ever in the world. We are privileged to have seen her.

Not that I know.

I'll just mention a couple of runners. No Dispute @ 5.57 Thursday at Ballarat and Le Beau Cheval @ 3.00 Thursday Hawkesbury.

I am not a real fan of figments, I prefer grapes and berries.

Do I detect a "go" at a very new AFL club North of the Murray and West of Sydney?

WJ any info on where Waylen Mansen ended up after missing selection in the drafts. Also I am keen to see how Hall goes with the Lions as he was another that many including myself wanted rookied.

I won't do a daily countdown because they can get boring, but only 28 days to our Nab cup start.

W We will will have to wait for the Queens Birthday Honours list, we are sure to be there. A win over the Pies would be a nice bonus before we head to Government House.

Must have been a mistake, they overlooked me.

Will be back soon I just have to check if I am in the Australia Day Honours List.
