NEW BABY FILLY

Greetings everyone and welcome to Amelia Park News.

LAST WEEKS PERFORMANCE

BELMONT 12/8
PRINCESS AMELIA - 8TH
She ran a good race but got blocked in so an unfortunate result.

NORTHAM 13/8
DESTROID 3RD
Was the favourite so disappointing to come 3rd.
CASTLE BLITZ 9TH
Not good enough in this race. Probably give 1 more run before making a decision on future.
BELLS AWAY 2ND
Very pleased with Bells run under Simon Millers preparation.

BELMONT 15/8
BLACK HABIT 6TH
Ran a tired race, coming home to Amelia Park for R & R and then prepare for next campaign.

THIS WEEK
DESTROID
Will be running in a 1300m race which should suit this horse.

UPDATE
AMELIAS DANCER -
Ran 4th in a Trial, still a while away yet but still growing and showing to be a big strong horse so will be looking forward to Amelias future racing.
REPRISAL & EUROPA POINT - EASTERN STATES
Currently in training and should be back on the track shortly, will keep you informed.
GAI WATERHOUSE
Has one of Peters fillys in work and should be ready in approximately 8 weeks, will also keep updating.

LADY SHERIFA - HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR - NEW BAY FILLY
Peter is thrilled that his FIRST FOAL was born on 15th August at Coolmore. She has come out of excellent top stock so it will be exciting to see this horse mature. Peter believes Holy Roman Emperor will certainly make his mark.
THE FIRST OF MANY FOALS TO COME

BACK FROM BALI
Peter has returned from a very relaxing stay and keeps commenting on the beautiful weather he has just left, but does admit how he enjoys coming home and seeing the lush green paddocks and the horses thriving. He enjoyed catching up with friends and spending time with family members under the magnificent Sunsets at Tanah Lot. Welcome to Thresia who has come back with Peter for a short stay at Amelia Park.

AMELIA PARK
Peter returned to a fantastic landscaping job and finishing touches done to the new home, under the guidance of Brett. Annie and family will be moving in this week and we hope they enjoy their new abode. The chickens will arrive shortly and the egg count competition will begin.

DAY SPA
Is progressing well and should be completed within 4 - 6 weeks just in time for Spring. We will be queueing up at the door.

FLORA & FAUNA
The leaves on our deciduous trees are starting to appear already in the anticipation of Spring sunshine but we hope we still have a few weeks of precipitation.
Our five new fowl have starting laying regularly, what a wonderful feeling to have released these day old chicks under a broody hen and now observe their beautiful foliage and their ability to pay their way on the farm.

Many thanks to Mason for his constant vigilance of fallen branches to keep our paddocks clean and safe for our livestock.

Look forward to reporting next week happenings to you all.


regards
Shelley
