Just moved my office from one room to another, so these reports are a bit late filing through. Anyway, Raining Dollars had a pleasing debut in Australia - sixth, but with slightly different timing, he'd have been in the top three. He definitely showed he has potential and a nice temperament, so Jo Hassett's time and patience is starting to pay off. With that run under his belt, he'll be one to watch for in the future.
Poor ol' Lord Ilsley is a bit miffed with River Spirit, who came fifth at Kempton in England last night. This was her first outing at six furlongs, and the race scenario wasn't kind. Ultimately, she was still driving for the finish at the end, so I'm fairly happy with the little lady. She's a dame!
In Japan, Joyful Step couldn't get a race, and has been retired. No big shakes! Glint Moment is up for action at Hanshin on the 4th, with Sakai-san taking the controls in the 1800m dirt 3R. Unless he wins, that will be the end of his career, too. At the other end of the scale, Rush Attack is due to make his debut on the 26th in a mile turf race at Tokyo-Fuchu. I think he has a better chance of victory than Glint Moment...
