Surprised and delighted to find Massabielle and Trovao have made it into the 2016 Carrot Club calendar, for August and November, respectively. Ironically, this means that it will not take up its usual spot in the kitchen, as I want to save it! Oh well, Louis will have to go without the Shadai one this year...After a promising first four furlongs, Beat The Boarder gave a predictably poor run in the 1:40 at TCK, finishing ninth, which should end her race career without any questions. Pretty Gully's poor showing in the 3:20 at Townsville should seal her fate, too, giving us a disappointing finish to the year.
Anyway, in the New Year, Shine Tiara is due to debut on the 3rd at Kawasaki, with Tadanari Konno in the saddle, which is wonderful news - such a nice chap, who's always jovial! Looking back through records, Konno-san has only ridden once for us before, giving Fairy Robe its debut. Not expecting too much first time out with this one to be honest, but the experience - with a veteran at the controls - will certainly stand it in good stead for the coming months.
