I am up at 5.00 every morning including weekends.

Sometimes Mrs S complains but I a man enough to ignore her and carry on with the washing and ironing.

She says I can have a break and watch the race, but not allowed to gamble

10 group1 winners in the field and you get people stating it`s only a handicap,How many times does the Arc or the Derby have 10 grp1 winners in a field?

Coverage has been great so far,the guys in the UK studios are very impressed.

Thing about OZ racing it`s a headline sport in Australia,in SA and the uk it`s a minority sport.

Frontpage news in Oz ,page 87 in the UK and SA..

They have racing in SA??? I never knew. Seriously, hib makes a good point but it's a vicious circle. It's front page news in Oz because it's big news. Give the readers what they want in a racing mad country. (Goes green with envy)
