SYDNEY PREMIERE

Welcome all, hope you enjoyed your week, don't you find the weeks are just flying by!

SYDNEY
FILM PREMIERE OF MAO'S LAST DANCER
Peter was honoured by being invited by Li Cunxin (The Author) to last nights Premiere. Peter commented that the Film is sensational, both teary at times as well as being humorous. I'm sure most people have read this Book and Peter Highly Recommends a viewing. Peter and Annie enjoyed catching up again with Li and meeting his Mother who has just arrived from China for this special event. The Film will be released on 1st October. I for one will be looking forward to its release, I thoroughly enjoyed the book.
Li told Peter that he will again be visiting Amelia Park next year, on his last visit Peter had a cocktail party for him and we were privileged to meet and talk with him, his wife and children. A very interesting man to talk to and listen to his background so we will be looking forward to that visit.

Coolmoore
Peter will now travel to Coolmoore with Brian Bradley for a few days for an inspection of the Mares and new Foals and catching up on all the Breeding News. Peter said that Fastnet Rock is doing all the right things here.

REPRISAL - SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Reprisal is going through its paces with warm ups in anticipation for future races.

CASTLE BLITZ
Peter reported that unfortunately Castle Blitz looks to be finished and will keep us updated on its future on his return.

BIRTHDAY WISHES - ANNIE 22/9/09
We all send Happy Birthday Greetings to Annie who returns today from Sydney.

HOME & AWAY
Peter will return on Thursday, then repack to fly out to China on Monday for approximately 10-12 days. I told Peter he will forget what Amelia Park looks like with all these trips he is on all the time but he assured me after China he will be staying put for quite a while.

WEATHER CHANGING (APPARENTLY)
It looks like we might all be enjoying some fine weather for this coming Long Weekend which will be gladly received.

I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!
