It has been a while since I have written down anything….. most remiss of me!
Well, Susie has had her first start
Evan and I finally got to have a night away from Massie Lodge
Oriana, our yearling has been sold
And a most courageous start was made by Susie, (Star Ferry). What a gal she is. She ran her first race ever last Friday and didn’t put a foot wrong. Stood up nice and still in the barriers even though one of the other starters broke through. She jumped out with them but they were running like scalded cats, and wee Susie was chasing them. 1000m is way too short for her. I noticed that she started to get going before the winning post, and while not coming last, made up some ground.
We will be looking for a 1400m maiden for the girl next start. GO THE GIRL!
Evan and I took the opportunity to have a night away (actually it seemed like it was out honeymoon as we never really got one!) up at Caloundra.
Isn’t funny when you plan to go away somewhere? You get soooo excited with the prospect of going somewhere different and there is all that build up of anticipation to get there… but once you get there and have settled in… you start thinking about coming home again and how much you miss being at home with all the dogs and horses (not to mention the birds!).
After getting up early on Saturday and going over to Greg’s to watch track work, we headed back to the Hotel for breakfast and then made a beeline for home!
Today we sold our first yearling. I am going to miss Oriana… she is such a sweet girl however, I am hoping that the guy that bought her will love her as much as we do. Crikeys, you can only hope that they do!
Oh well…. That’s business I guess.
1,000 apologies as this blog is only going to be a shortie… Iam tired from getting up early and then going out for lunch at Marburg with the Telstra crowd.
Hoooroooo till next time!
