      • Family of Boys: (K Hocking) ran at Stawell. Couple of knocks in the early stages, but finished off his race very well and had a great recovery. Looking forward to his next start.

        Beth and Delta.

        • Family of Boys (Junior): (C Nicholls) races at Swan Hill, jumps out well from the gates and settles 2nd, but the saddle shifts forward over the neck and jockey does a mighty job to stay on and complete the race.

Delta went to Mount Gambier and finished fourth tiring at the end of the race. She did not settle at all when stabled the previous night away from home and ran her race the night before.

      • Shawentamor: had her first start and finished fifth, was still running on at the end. A very pleasing run, and she pulled up well. A top effort for a first race start.

Country racing owners challenge

Tee Gee Pea

 

Finishes third in the C.R.O.C., not a bad effort considering that he is still a maiden after 23 starts. As a two year he suffered a cannon bone fracture that was repaired by Jim Vasey and team at the Goulburn Valley equine hospital at Shepparton. We are still trying for the win. Wedgie as he is known is lucky to stand 15hh, he never leaves a feed (except a bit on race nights). Otherwise he is always fresh, keen to work and wants to be  the centre of attention.

Swan Hill Races 25/4/05

He jumped early and ran home finishing a gallant fourth. Still learning all the time. Ridden beautifully by Rhonda Ree's.


Broken Hill Races12/3/05

Beadbush Blue :(Rhonda Ree's) Wins by 4 lengths and Tee Gee Pea runs a gallant third (top effort)2nd start back from a spell.

The trip was extremely relaxing for the crew that escorted the five runners (3 our own and two of Gavin Murphy's). The trip home was another matter, at least we had a winner. The truck broke down just out of Wentworth. John Castlemain took horse to his home for us. We borrowed a car to get the horses home and it got hot, and then Con Kelly came across up stranded and at least got the horses home. A nice policeman picked us up after the RACV took the car. On the way to Swan Hill a truck went pass and you guessed it, the police car got a chip in its window. So far for the rest of the week nothing has happened so we hope the JINX has lifted.

Thank you to all the people who assisted us.
