FABULOUS FIRST
Welcome to this weeks report on the news and happenings at Amelia Park. I HOPE THERE WERE SOME NICE COLLECTS ON THE MELBOURNE CUP!!!
RACING
AMELIAS DANCER - 1ST
PINJARRA 31/10.
Fantastic result, a good run and more to follow.
REPRISAL
FLEMINGTON 2/11
Very ordinary race from this top horse, Trainer is scratching his head!!
MELBOURNE
I spoke to Peter this morning and he reports that he has had a wonderful time, socialising of course and catching up with lots of friends. He thanks his good friends Alex and Valerie for allowing him to use their Units in Southbank which was greatly appreciated and in a great location.
He visited Haysey's Stables and inspected 3 of his horses being Reprisal, New Light and the special - Marseille.
Peter was hosted on Saturday by Brett Fogarty which was a fantastic day, then onto his good friend Debbies for a sumptious Sunday night Dinner which was fabulous and all had to be pushed out the door in the early hours.
Melbourne Cup day was something special, even the rain didn't dampen their fun and enjoyment. The luncheon, service and atmosphere on this grand day was memorable.
Peter commented that the most expensive days were the SHOPPING DAYS by the ladies - a new outfit for every occasion but he says it was worth it as Sammy and Annie certainly stood out in the crowd.
We congratulate Peters Brother Greg who had a 3rd in Race 8 by Hidden Wonder. This horse has now certainly paid his way in the region of approximately $550,000. Well done Greg!
Peter said today is for relaxing - so he thinks, I'm sure the girls will sneak out for that last minute of frantic shopping - GO GIRLS!
AMELIA PARK SYNDICATE 111
Dion Luciani is starting the next Syndicate so for all details please contact him on 0407768865 and enjoy all the excitement of owning Horses in a Syndicate.
Everything is going fine at Amelia Park and we look forward to Peters return, there is always something happening when Peter is back.
I look forward to reporting next week and enjoy your weekend.

OPENING OF ASCOT
Peter thoroughly enjoyed the opening day. Everyone was in good spirits and a great day was had by all.
RACING RESULTS

PINJARRA
AMELIAS GEM - 4TH
A good 1st up run, Vern Brockman was very encouraged with the performance, looking forward to big improvements when starting in the 1200-1400m races.
AMELIAS REASON
Pricey also can't work out this horses behaviour. He said when riding him on the beach he his perfect and strong but come race day?????????????? What will become of the big fella!
TRIALS 18TH
ALMOHAD
Ran a tidy race and should get a start Saturday week, will keep you posted.
AMELIAS FAIR
A little bit more work to do but coming along.
EUROPA POINT
Sadly has finished racing after breaking down. Will now go to stud and be served by High Chapparell the leading Stallion so Peter will look forward to a new star.
AMELIA PARK
WINE TASTING EVENING
Peter had a rewarding night on Monday as Host to approximately 30 people from Restaurants and Liquor Outlets in the South West promoting his Wines. Needless to say the bin was overflowing so obviously it was well tried and tested.
WEDDING BELLS SATURDAY
Peters nephew Mason is having a Wedding Luncheon which we are all invited to and looking forward to celebrating his big day.
Peter and Staff wish every happiness to Mason and his soon to be Bride.
MELBOURNE CUP
Guess who isn't going!!!
Peter will be flying out next Wednesday with Annie and his Daughter Sammy to celebrate the Melbourne Round. I really do wish them a happy time.
We enjoyed the Winter day and rainfall yesterday as the creek is looking awfully sad, hope we can get a few more of those days soon.
Have a great weekend everyone and look forward to next weeks report.
