BEAUTIFUL FOAL BORN ON THE FARM



This is as close as Mum would allow me!!
More close ups to follow

Hello and welcome everyone to this weeks News at Amelia Park.

JESSICA'S NEW FRIEND
It started last week with Jess and Tegan having sleep outs waiting for the birth.  But Mum had to wait until the early morning when no-one was about and missed it all.  It must have been approximately 5am, what a clever Mum and what a gorgeous Colt. Isn't everything beautiful at birth!!! 
Many hours of fun ahead for Jess.

APOLOGIES
I do apologise to Annie and Tegan, I had their Birthdays around the wrong way, so I will start again.

BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY WISHES TO ANNIE FOR 22ND, I believe she had a wonderful day with Family and doesn't remember what time her bed was calling.  Our Birthday Drink together has to wait!

TEGAN ON THE 26TH - we all hope you have a lovely day and Brett spoils you.!!

OWEN - 30TH the last of a long line
Happy Birthday Wishes to our Stable Manager, have a good one Owy!!

KALGOORLIE - BOULDER CUP
AMELIAS DANCER - 2ND
Peter was pleased with the outcome.  Dancer put in an enormous finish seeing he had more trouble than Ned Kelly on the inside lane.  Dancer is used to the outside and does a magnificent job out there.  The next races hopefully  he will go back outside where it suits.

BELMONT
SATURDAY
MAKE YOUR MOVE - RACE 2, 1400m
Has drawn well and interested to see how it handles the 1400.  Good luck to Jason Brown who is taking the reins until Jason Whiting returns.

DREAM MERGER - RACE 1 1000M
Another Syndicate Horse to the track so all eyes will be on Race 1 & 2 on Saturday.RIO MOONLIGHT
Had an ordinary run, will give it another go and then maybe will train at Amelia Park and get some Bunbury races.

TESTA ROSSA  
Is currently in the Stables and should prove a great distance runner as a 3 y.old.

Peter commented that he is confident the Syndicate Horses will prove successful with still more experience and age to follow. 

AFL
WATCH OUT MELBOURNE - BRETT & SAM ARE ON THEIR WAY
WE ARE LOOKING TO ROB WILEY TO LOOK AFTER THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

80TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS
Brett & Samantha had a wonderful day with Mum and all the family, celebrating at the Tavern.  Some of them were certainly stayers (lots of stories and memories talked about).

GREAT RAINFALL
We are certainly enjoying the Spring Rains, wonderful for the paddocks, feed and dams - not to mention THE CREEK!

MORE TO ARRIVE 
2 Containers will arrive next week FROM CHINA full of furniture for THE HOUSE.  
It is getting very close now - lots of work being completed.  HOW EXCITING - I CANT WAIT FOR THE INVITE.

BEST OF LUCK TO THE

SYNDICATE OWNERS

HAPPY RACING EVERYONE

A CLAYTONS RACE DAY

Hello and welcome everyone to this weeks News from Amelia Park



KALGOORLIE RACES
BOULDER CUP
YES, PETER, WANGA AND NOEL AND ROB WERE THERE TO WATCH AMELIAS DANCER  - NOT RACE.
UNFORTUNATELY THE DAYS RACE MEETING WAS CANCELLED.

"WHAT A LONG WAY TO GO TO GET DRUNK "

But Peter said he was so glad he had his first visit to Kalgoorlie, he said the atmosphere on the day was fantastic, you could feel everyones excitement.  They visited the Tatts Club and you would have thought there had been races on, a great night was had.   Peter said he will definitely be back and will try and get some more horses to the track.

KALGOORLIE RACES  -  RESCHEDULED

BOULDER CUP - WEDNESDAY 19TH at 3.15pm

RACE 7

ROB WILEY has been left there to represent Peter (he really did want to come home!!!).  If Dancer brings home the Trophy Rob will collect it and make a speech.  We all wish we could be there, Peter thinks Dancer has a great chance, the only drawback will be that he doesn't settle well in new surroundings and has been there since the weekend wherein he usually gets to the track, races and then straight home.

  

  BRING THE CUP HOME DANCER!!

MAKE YOUR MOVE

MAKE YOUR MOVE
FIRST WIN
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE SYNDICATE

Peter also sends CONGRATULATIONS  to Keith Yelverton, Neil Henchie, Bill O'Byrne and David Law who all bought Shares in this horse as well as being a part of the Syndicate.   What a fantastic start to what will hopefully be a WINNING SYNDICATE with all the other Horses waiting to come thru.  Peter said it has paid off by being patient and letting the horses mature and seeing the rewards for all the hard work that has been put into these horses.

WEDNESDAY AT BELMONT
MAKE YOUR MOVE
Has been nominated in Race 3.  the decision to run will be made later today, depending on field etc. He pulled up well after his win so will just make sure he is ready, if all ok he should be in with a good chance.  LETS HOPE HE MAKES HIS MOVE AGAIN!!!

KALGOORLIE ON ALERT
They have heard that Peter and Wanga will be visiting their town on the weekend to watch AMELIAS DANCER hopefully secure another CUP.  Whichever way the race goes Dancer will be in there trying with the best of them.
Being on WORKERS COMP seems to be the way to go as Wanga can come and go and keep Peter company. SO WATCH OUT KALGOORLIE.

CELEBRATION DINNER 
Peter is taking staff out for Dinner on Wednesday to celebrate Amelias Dancer's winning the Coolgardie Cup.  Peter has stipulated it will be an early night as work the next day.  Not like the 4am last week celebration at the Farm - STILL, IT IS ALLOWED ON SPECIAL WINNINGS.

SEPTEMBER BIRTHDAYS AT THE FARM
This week we say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JESSICA, she and a group of friends did an all weekender at the Farm, up all hours each night, luckily they weren't sleeping at Peters house.   She has been hard to get up these last couple of mornings - still getting over it.

More September Birthday Greetings to come! I think 5 altogether.

FOND FAREWELL AND BEST OF LUCK
Peter will miss his very good friend ROB WILEY who will be moving over East for the next 3 years.  HE WILL BE ASSISTANT COACH AT CARLTON FOOTBALL CLUB under Mick Malthouse.  Peter knows the team will benefit from Rob's experience, he creates Winners and Premierships wherever he is, to name this years Under 16's Premiers.
Peter commented that there will be quite a few flights being made over to see him.
Amelia Park and Syndicate Owners wish Rob every success in his new venture. 

SAMANTHA BACK TO BALI
Lucky Sammi is heading to Bali with a group of girlfriends for an extended Long Weekend.  Enjoy yourselves at Tanah Lot and as Dad's say "be a good girl",  YES DAD!!

THE HOUSE
It is getting closer to the finish.  Brett has just commenced on the Landscaping which will be a mammoth exercise and we all can't wait to see what Peter has planned.  Carpets are going in and hand made Furniture arrives next week.  Keep tuned in!

PETER PLAYS HOST
Peter hosted an evening at Jacksons Restaurant last evening.  He invited 60 people including Top Chefs as a thankyou Dinner for using and promoting Amelia Park Products.  Peter said the evening was a great success.

INVITATION TO INSPECT 
Peter, Annie and Jess will go to Perth on Thursday to have a tour of Jess's School which she will board at in the near future to further her studies.  Jess excels in her schooling so attending St. Hildas will be a bonus for her.

VISITORS
Annie will play hostess this weekend while Peter is in Kalgoorlie.  Vangie and her son are coming for a break so it will be good for the girls to catch up - no doubt a few bottles of Champagne will be consumed!!!  ENJOY


Enjoy your week and look forward to reporting our News next week.
