Breeders Cup Meeting 7th Nov.

Great thanks Davy and will do mate

That will do Scotia, thanks, but I will still endeavour to find more detailed form.

Seems like we are quite spoiled by publications such as the sporting post in SA!!!

and sorry here is the Sat cards

www.racingpost.com/horses/course_home.sd?crs_id=257

I ran down to the local news stand and they have a publication here called "the racing post". Unfortunately I think the Friday and Saturday cards only show up on the respective mornings.

I will buy in the morning and scan. Then post on here. The form is quite a bit more detailed and I'm sure will help you guys out some!!!

Will miss the first few races driving home from taking 2 bob and a tanner in the 7.19 at steeple downs.

Tommy seen your writing skills you should be doing a preview for us...

I was going to write an article for SAHracing.com and do just that but things have been a little busy on the work front here.....

I'll try to sit down sometime soon and put together some ideas for the boys.

Watch this space!

Evining Hibby, cant appear to copy and paste the card for Sat?

sorry guys, but will be able to give you a few good winners

Upbeat O'Brien delighted with Rip Van Winkle


A RELIEVED Aidan O'Brien expressed himself delighted with Rip Van Winkle's condition after the favourite for Saturday's Breeders' Cup Classic displayed his usual smooth-actioned athleticism during gentle exercise at Santa Anita on Wednesday.

O'Brien, in particularly upbeat mood, gave Rip Van Winkle's supporters fresh fuel for confidence having previously voiced concern that the son of Galileo, who has been plagued with foot problems allyear, would be hampered by a reoccurence.

After the Sussex Stakes and Queen Elizabeth II Stakes winner had been give an easy canter, O'Brien declared: "I was very worried this morning. You could see the journey in him and he's been a little bit quiet the last few days, but as he went round the track this morning I was very happy, as happy as you can be after a slow piece of work. He didn't lose his movement. His foot seems fine.

"We won't really know if the season has taken its toll until he runs, but Rip is a very brilliant horse, probably the most natural athlete we've ever had.

"This horse gives it all. You have to be careful talking about him because the feel you get from him this morning makes you maybe say too much. The feel, the movement that he has.

"This is a very special horse and I have no doubt that we have never before come here with a horse of this calibre. If we can get him to perform close to what he can do, he should give a really good account of himself."
