CELEBRATIONS AT THE FARM

Hello everyone and welcome to this weeks report.

IT'S AMELIA TIME FOR RACING

AMELIAS DANCER WILL RETURN NEXT WEEK and looking forward to another great run.
AMELIAS TIGER, AMELIAS MOMENT, AMELIAS DELIGHT will all be in the running in the next few weeks, will keep you posted.

GONE AGAIN

Peter left in the early hours of Monday to fly to KOREA on business for the week.

EAGLES GREAT WIN
Peter had a great day on Sunday being entertained by the Eagles Management and Barry thoroughly enjoyed it all - as you would!!! Lets hope they continue with their good form!

CELEBRATIONS
It was a twofold event at the Farm on Saturday.
Brett enjoyed a gathering for his Birthday which also included the Henchie Family who celebrated the birth of RYAN & GEMMA'S NEW SON - ANDRE - A HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL. I believe a great day and evening was had when I saw the Cleaners there on Sunday - I wont say who they were!!!!!!!!!

BACK TO WORK
We welcomed Tegan back to work today after spending 2 weeks in Bali. I haven't heard the goss yet as now Kristy in on leave Tegan is flat strap at the Stables. I think a glass of champers this week to swap all our news.
I forgot to mention my great girlie Melbourne Holiday - what a hoot!!!!
As we say - 'What happens in Bali & Melbourne - stays in Bali & Melbourne'.

STILL WAITING
All that know the Farm are asking if the CREEK IS RUNNING - Sadly NOT YET, a few puddles here and there, the first to spy it gets the prize!!!!!!!

BLACK SWANS
We are chuffed that 7 of our baby Swans have now found a niche at the Lake and wander around feeely. It will be fantastic if they make the Farm their home.
Glenn is also getting excited as quite a few of the birds are making their nests ready and 1 pair of the Eclectus Parrots have mated and the female is sitting, so here's hoping for babies. Can't wait to tell Peter!

Thats all the current news at AMELIA PARK so look forward to next week and reporting to you all.


kind regards

Shelley

DANCED HOME

Greetings everyone and welcome to our News and Events.

AMELIAS DANCER - F I R S T
SAT 11/6

What a FANTASTIC RUN, congratulations must go to Jason & Lou on a great race plan. To watch the race was joy and Dancer certainly danced on home. MORE TO COME!

BELMONT 8/6
BOTH OUTSPOKEN LADY & AMELIAS MOMENT were very disappointing. Still trying to work that out as they should have had a better result.

RACING BELMONT WEDNESDAY 15/6
AMELIAS DELIGHT - RACE 3
Peter is looking forward to some results from this horse.
AMELIA TIGER - RACE 5
Running reasonably well, gradually increasing over the distance.

TIME OUT ON THE WEEKEND
Peter spent a very relaxing weekend after arriving home from Singapore and then straight into entertaining for the rest of the week. The doors were all locked so he couldn't escape.
Another busy week has started and then he is off to the Eagles Match as a Special Guest and he is taking lucky Barry (his Driver) with him who is a diehard supporter, then flys out to Korea and Indonesia on business. He will enjoy the warmth away I'm sure.

DOWNPOUR
We certainly got what we wished for last night with receiving a huge downpour. Unfortunately we also got the severe winds so it is a big clean up with fallen trees, branches, and OH THOSE LEAVES. WE ARE EAGERLY WAITING AND WATCHING FOR THE RIVER TO START RUNNING!!

STABLES
Standing on my verandah I really feel for the Riders (and Horses)as I watch them starting out in the dark cold windy mornings. They are a truly dedicated bunch (and YOUNG).

HOLIDAYS
Our Stable Manager - Kristy leaves this weekend for a well earned rest for 2 weeks, jetting off to Phuket so she is making us very aware of what attire has been packed for this trip (bathers etc) lucky thing. ENJOY YOUR BREAK.

RETURN FROM CHINA & BALI
Sammy returns today from doing errands for Peter in China and Bali with great results. Tegan also returns today from Bali - can't wait to hear their stories!!!

AMELIA PARK SYNDICATE NO 3
All the horses are being educated and they are all coming along nicely according to Dion who spends a great deal of time of them. They are a hoot to watch in the paddocks when frolicing about.

BIRTHDAY WISHES
BRETT WALSH

We all look forward to having a Birthday Cheer drink with Brett on Friday and hope he enjoys his weekend of celebrating.

That wraps the news for this week and look forward to advising updates next week.


Regards to all

Shelley ( GOOD LUCK MIKE! )
