We were extremely happy with the results at Bunbury!
We scored a double with Boogiewithmebaby (McArdle - Dream Dancing) and Chillin Dylan (Western Terror - Margareta Ville) both winning very easily.
Boogiewithmebaby was actually McArdle's first downunder winner, however he really struggled as an early 3yo. No with young trainer / driver Justin Prentice he is going better than ever.
Chillin Dylan was always a favourite, a lovely grey colt, he made $35,000 as a yearling to the bid of Neven Botica. So we hope he continues to live up to the promise, and give Neven a good return.

Two in a row?
Well Village Steel put in a great performance to win last Friday.
He is in again tonight and looks a pretty good chance again. He just needs one more win to get to M4 and pretty much guarantee a spot in the Fremantle Cup.
In other news his mother, Graceland, is still hanging on to her foal. She is now nearly 14 days overdue - luckily she doesn't lay down too much at night, otherwise it would not be very fun at all!

Some Nice Chances
We have got some nice chances in over the next couple of days.
Nomore Forusir (Armbro Operative - Pleasedontstop) lines up in the Kalgoorlie Boulder Pacing Cup. Colin Brown was interviewed on OneOut.OneBack (WA's highest rating Harness Racing Show!) and he was very bullish about his chances.
It is quite interesting to note that he will be competing against his younger brother in Haematite (Village Jasper - Pleasedontstop). Wouldn't it be nice for a 1 - 2 finish!
Rojo Gaynes (Village Jasper - Miss Caide) also goes around in race 2 at Kalgoorlie.
On Friday night at Gloucester Park Village Steel (Village Jasper - Graceland) and The Jobs On (Perfect Art - Kenmare) line up in Race 8. Both have been in good form of late and would have to be nice each way chances.

Lots of Rain and No Foals
While the eastern seaboard has been getting hot spring weather we have been getting more winter weather - cold, windy and rainy.
Not that you ever complain with rain.
We now have three mares due to foal, but none are really looking like they are ready to drop right now. The first three mares to foal are:
- Graceland (i/f to American Ideal)
- Miss Anvil (i/f to Art Major)
- Spicks And Specks (i/f to Bettors Delight)
These three will be three of our more valuable foals so touch wood they will all have safe births and produce nice healthy foals.

Looking For A Win
Ionian Jewel will be looking for a win at Gloucester Park tomorrow night. She is still part owned by us as she couldn't garner a bid at the yearling sales.
It has been a while since we have part owned a winner at Gloucester park so hopefully Ruby will put her best hoof forward.
To me she looks to have a good chance, she has drawn three and does get out quick. Anyway fingers crossed!
