Sandown Race 2-4 CHAMELEON 2nd $1.60(don't back if odds on)
Jumped well and settled back at the tale of the field, came to the outside once
in the straight and made steady ground to get beaten in a photo.
Eagle Farm Race 5-4 CHARMING ROGUE 1st $1.70-$1.10
Jumped well and sat outside the leader early until the leader started to over race
and pull away from the field. The leader looked to have too big of a break,
however this fellow is well above your ordinary horse. One to follow
Gosford Race 3-2 SADDLER JACK Unplaced
Lead early from a wide alley and then took a sit behind the leaders when the pace
was on.Came around the leaders heels and never finished off, I expected him to lead
and lead easy, didn't happen.

Sunshine Coast Race 2-5 TEARS'N'CHEERS 2nd $1.50
Jumped well from wide alley and Glen couldn't get him in near the fence, sat 4 wide
five lenghts from the lead and cruised up to them at the 300m, joined leader and fort
strong to the line, however the leader kept kicking"unlucky"
Sunshine Coast Race 5-3 SAVE A BUCK 2nd $2.50
Got back from a wide alley as expected 3 deep with cover, got pushed wide on the turn
,which probally cost it the race and he hit the line hard to just miss out he's a very honest horse.
Rosehill Race 4-5 COOL DUKE 1st 3.40
Got back to 3rd last after jumping well, Blake went for the runs in between runners
and got blocked and bumped took lots of riding from Blake to get him home just won.
Rosehill Race 8-6 REFEREES (Special) unplaced
Missed the start and got back to 3rd last, Sat too long and the bird had flown. Made it
impossible to catch the winner.

Beautiful ride by Clair 4th one out, in solid pace came to the outside at the 400m mark
and had to be ridden hard won well.

Given the run of the race, 5th the fence and was under pressure 500m from home got into

Sunshine Coast Race 1-4 TRICKY TOUCH unplaced

Got back in the field as expected, however when Jason tried to improve coming to the turn

she raced greenly making good ground late, maybe later over 1400m.

Sunshine Coast Race 7-9 MAGIC PROMENADE unplaced

Got a lot further back than I expected and was 3 & 4 wide the entire race, 8 & 9 wide on the

turn and came OK considering she ran 200m further than any thing else in the race.

Murwillumbar Race 3-3 FANTASTIC STYLE 2nd $1.60

I know there was an odds on shot in this race, that look very impressive winning first up.

However I got the inside word for this fellow earlier in the week, and he didn't disappoint. He

tried very hard and will be better next time in over a bit further.
