BUSY RACING & SOCIAL WEEK

Hello again, we hope you enjoy our news update this week.

SATURDAY - COX PLATE AT AMELIA PARK
The Annual Cox Plate Luncheon was again a great success through the generosity of Peter.
Each year he invites a group of Gentlemen, both the young and the young at heart, for a day
of merriment. The pretty waitresses did a wonderful job in keeping the drinks flowing which continued well into the night. From my veranda I wondered how Peter and some of the late stayers did not continue on with their singing careers!!!

ALMOHAD winning on the day made it all the more enjoyable and well overdue.

The disappointments on the day was LADY XAAR who was slow to start and couldn't make up the distance and RED TIME RUNNER had everything go wrong in its first up but shows great potential and just needs a bit more racing and experience.

RACING RESULTS
WEDNESDAY 21ST
AMELIAS LAD - 4th, BELLS AWAY AND DIVINE ANNA also started but disappointing results. Kevin rode Divine Anna but through no fault of his the horse would not perform.

SPECIAL TELEVISION FEATURE -
OUR JOCKEY KEVIN BOHORUN
We hope you tuned in and enjoyed the Feature on Kevin's up and coming career , I lost count of how many times we replayed it. Peter is very confident that with Kevin's attitude and dedication he will continue to rapidly improve. He had another FIRST in Geraldton and two Fourths, a THIRD at Ascot and in Northam 3 rides with a 4th,5th and 6th placement. Great riding Kevin and keep it going.

MONDAY TRIALS
AMELIAS GLORY - FIRST - very pleased with the result
MASTER SECRET - FOURTH - showing promise and should Debut Saturday week, we will keep you posted.

HIFALUTIN - KEEP AN EYE OUT
Lou has reported that he is exceptionally pleased with the horse and very much looking forward to giving it a start in about 2 weeks.

Morphetville South Australia
2 Progeny's of BARELY A MOMENT started on Saturday, one of them winning by 3-4 lengths. Peter was pleased to see the good stock is continuing.

AMELIA PARK
On Friday our Breeding Guru for Amelia Park, Brian Bradley paid a visit and enjoyed a weekend beginning with inspecting and spending time with the horses followed by wine tasting at the Cellar on Friday, up very early to watch the trackwork and then the Cox Plate on Saturday. Peter always enjoys Brian's company and its usually followed by a quiet day on his departure but Peter had friends from Denmark arrive and so it was off wining and dining for Sunday lunch. I don't know how Peter keeps it up!

MELBOURNE CUP WEEK
The late tickets have been purchased and Peter leaves Friday. REPRISAL by all accounts should be running on Saturday at FLEMINGTON IN RACE 8 under David Hayes. The horse has conducted itself well and Peter believes a bet will be in order.
EUROPA POINT is listed for a race on Melbourne Cup Day or Oaks Day on Thursday depending on the draw.

Both horses are in very good company so it will be thrilling racing ahead and the staff at Amelia Park wish Peter all the luck and wish we were there to share in the excitement.

HAPPY RACING TO ALL.

regards

Shelley
