Oh indeed! Bubbles is yet another special person. In many ways the “soul“. And a snitch as it were, but loveable. Just a magnificent show. For me in the two best ever drama shows. The Sopranos is the BeatleS; The Wire is Bob Dylan. The two epics of drama tv. Then follows with some...

One of those dear old ships that was sailing in the beauty of Sydney Harbour.

Yay. Ozark, a weekend or so of excellence.

Better Call Soul, season 5 I think it is. very very enjoyable.

Interesting view point. i actually really liked season 2. i think I enjoyed the circling of sharks and the back biting to regain some control.

Movie: The Irishman. its very long, but my kind of mafia style movie. not too bad but you just know De Niro, Pacino, Pesci have all aged. the new technology makes them younger but they don’t move young. still not a bad movie.

Vikings the last season is dropping SBS on Wednesday. looks to be two sets of 10 episodes to complete the series. whilst not the same without Travis Fimmel’s outstanding Ragnar, still worthy to watch.

A small each way bet is a fun way to go. i like a small box trifecta for fun too.

No penalty for Hotham winner. As such the above should be the final field on correct order (assuming they all elect to pay up which is the usual ad this juncture.) Good luck all; very Japanese for me.

Derby Day. one of the greatest days on the calendar. glorious racing through. Shadow Hero to be so strong in the Derby. warning to be the warning and run well. Bivouac to gain the group 1 in the hot Coolmore. Gai to gain a runner in the Melbourne Cup with the Hotham runner Hush Writer...

Updating the Virtual field as it stands today taking into account the latest withdrawals and all completed races. NB: The Chosen One stands as the 24th in ballot order and essentially only ONE spot remains available being the winner of the Hotham Hcp. Assuming the winner is a Cup acceptor then...

As per last year, here is my Virtual Melbourne Cup Field if it was set today. NB. Still to play out including the ballot free spot for the winner of the Hotham Hcp, assuming it’s a paid up horse for the Cup. bendigo cup (Wednesda) could tell a tale for a spot but less likely as it were. the...

Cox Plate day. im seeing the year of the Japanese. Lys Gracieux looks the one, her form if she brings her A grade is so strong. Can see her win by 2 to 3 lengths. just the logical choice. id love love love to see Avilius win, I’m a mega Avilius fan. Have always liked him. and I’d run him in...

All true, yes. It’s dissapointing.

Begins with the breeding. Many breeders go for the sprinters as it’s a quicker turnaround time to get them to the races, quicker return for owners (or at least know if they might be ok or not so good). Starts from there. Great irony, The Everest aside, the biggest money is for staying races...

The Japanese in the Caulfield Cup looks a nice prospect. Excellent form. They usually do very well staying wise. Only needs a top 8 finish to qualify for the Melbourne Cup and with its weight would hence be a certain starter. Mer De Glacé Maybe I over like the Japanese but they seem very...

And what a win. Alligator looked all the winner then slightly slower and Seth came and came. Amazing win. Great spectacle.

At least I had Flit. Just, but she got there.

Cape Of Good Hope, I Missed that. Nice win. Cox Plate, very very open this year.

Very open some of the races.

Should add the Group 1 in Sydney, the Spring Champion Stakes looks a nice feast for the favourite, Shadow Hero. But watch for a nice strong run from Quick Thinker on his way to the Derby. Likes the track wet and will served this. Nash Rawiller in the saddle.

The alligator (Alligator Blood) in the Guineas? Avilius surly just wins the Caulfield Stakes. Princess jenni for a very very open Toorak Hcp. Flit in the 1,000 Guineas. And to earn a spot in the Caulfield Cup goes to the winner of the Herbert Power. Steel Prince looks the obvious. For a...

And it’s that time of the year for lovers of horse racing. Views, thinking, tips, whatever all welcome. Opening on a lovely spring day for Caulfield Guineas here in Melbourne. Mods may wish to move this to the Nest. Leave to their discretion.

For those that recall, and have memories of Socceroo coaches, Rudi Gutendorf passed away yesterday. He was 93. Coached many teams including a spell with our national team.
