Well like a few others on this board I'm sure, my spring, summer and autumn interest is in the horses.
And in about two weeks time the quality returns at Flemington for the Lightning Stakes with Weekend Hussler and Apache Cat doing battle up the straight in the first Group 1 race of the year.
The Autumn carnival is growing to the point that its right up there with the spring, there are probably 7 really good weeks of racing in Melbourne during Autumn, then the action moves to Sydney for another 6 weeks. And from a crowd point of view its great cos you're seeing the stars without the rediculous crowds.
We might have to get some little tipping challenge going vfa and anyone else who might be interested. And did you get to the Healesville Cup last weekend George?
