V & V WALSH WEEKEND

It started at Jacksons Restaurant on Friday night.  Sadly that is the last time this annual event will take place there as Jacksons will be closed.  Peter said it went off exceptionally well and Neil as always put on a FEAST for them which Greg and Peter are very thankful to Neil and his staff.
What a hard task for Peter to find another venue for next year!!

ASCOT RACES SATURDAY
What an amazing day, as always.  The Room looked amazing in Amelia Park colours and the delicious meal and wines were top class.

The ladies all glammed up and looked outstanding for the day, not to mention the suit clad Gents..

The Evans Clan faired well again on the Barrel Draws but on the whole most tables had a win.

IT WAS A WONDERFUL DAY AND WE THANK PETER AND GREG FOR THEIR GENEROSITY. 

Peter returns on Friday from the Sales and will welcome his good friend and Business Partner MR CHEN to the Farm for the weekend. 
HE NEVER STOPS!!!!


HAPPY RACING EVERYONE!

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

Peter said all in all it was a pretty good run.  It certainly is a different horse and with a good barrier draw on next outing should perform well.
