Fantastic win again today and another peach of a ride from Clayton. That's our 2nd Highway win (and I think 8th overall?) with the @Patriot_BldStk boys, who keep finding affordable yet handy ones!

Over/ under on the target Australia can chase down today (with/ without Bumrah)?

Surely the time for patience with Mitch Marsh has come to an end?

We've now been in 5 racehorses with Patriot (4 raced, 1 recently bought into). All 4 that have raced have won for us, combined record of 25 starts for 7-3-4. Anthony & Mitch know how to find them!
Air Combat, a winner at just his second start for @RacingRobb, and welcome back to the winners circle, Clayton Gallagher second day back riding, and first winner since February. Congrats to his co-owners @JasonMutimer @MutimerScott @jocasta1964 @darrah_ross @mrpkpk @cliffbingham

Freedom Rally would be a huge Stradbroke contender if he wasn't *checks notes* 61st in the ballot order....

My little syndicate has now had 3 horses with Patriot. All have won, for a total of 6 wins & 5 placings from 18 starts. Anthony & Mitch certainly know how to find the value purchases!

Our syndicate has been in 3 horses with Patriot to date. By my maths we're now 5 wins (across all 3 horses) from just 17 starts, including a Highway today. Anthony & Mitch know how to find value!

Why is the Winter Championship final being run in May?

Earl Hebner refereeing in Townsville these days it would seem.
Pies have offered us a surprising number of uncontested marks inside forward 50. A likeable trend.
Never thought I'd own a horse who jumped as fave every start of her career. Also didn't expect her to bleed twice in 6 starts en route to early retirement. What could have been, Glamour Runs Deep.

Good old @Telstra 's AI bot needs some work. Have told it 7 times that the wall fitting is stuffed and needs a technician to replace it, but they refuse to acknowledge this and book me an appointment.

Does anyone know why @Qantas flights mysteriously go up by 60% when trying to pay with flight credits? A $245 flight for cash is $392 if you use flight credit (using cash you've already given them)....
Another case of #Thegreatgame giveth/ taketh away. Start the day with a horse you part-own as an odds-on fave resuming, watch it run 2nd, then find out it bled and won't race again until the autumn @Tedeschi8181

Absolutely filthy on the chunk of former ownership who voted to sell Starliv. We wanted to keep going. Heartbreaking to watch her win with other owners.

How good are 5-day backups? Loved the toughness of our boy Vallauris today!
A rarity for our little syndicate to have 2 runners on same day. Cheering home Farage in R2 and Vallauris in R3 at Sapphire Coast

Not ideal when our horse runs a 46.38 first 800m in a 1400m race (if Wagga R4 times are correct). She's talented but needs to learn how to look after herself....

How good! I think he'll be better over more than 1600m too!
Owning a winner on Cup day. Woweee.
