Joyous Harmony that is.
Kicks off her campaign at Mt Magnet (non TAB) this Saturday. She's had a great prep and our short term goal is to get her set fir the $100,000 regional challenge heat in Geraldton next month, finish in the 1st four and qaulify for the final at Ascot on November 26. Will be awesome if she qaulifies as that's the date of our work xmas party, which is at the track

A close up 3rd first up was pretty handy. Got a terrible check in the straight. Will be better for that run and hopefully get the choccys next week at the Meekatharra Cup meet. Just diwn the road (160ks ) from work so I'll be there!

Wasn't it!
Unreal, should if kept pushing forward but drops out the back. Very disappointing.
That's racing.

Spot on Culprit! Beau Appo rode her a treat last night. To jump from the outside gate, with 59kg and win by 2 lengths was a mighty effort

It's in my Black Book and I got $6.40
Our Syndicate horse set for big things failed at Seymour. I would say she is set for a spell and maybe next year.
