*it's a filly* Arlo Dorothy Sharp was born 16/3/21, feeling truly blessed. I once backed Dot The Eye at 240/1 and it saluted which I thought was a pretty cool day-but this tops it.

My nephew Oscar had his first day at school today. Oscar is already a man's man-hunting, training trotters, and farming. A note come home to Mum from his first day at school, and the 10s on pop salutes 😂

Well we had to wait to almost 11pm in the pissing down rain at Melton on Breeders Crown night, but finally we get to feel something. A result that feels like it really means something to the connections. Thank christ for that. The trifecta was full of battlers, great to see.

When I was 4 and lived at the back of the bakery, I'd have some toast for brecky and then walk next door unsupervised to the Mallee Bull Cafe and tell Aunty Lorraine I hadn't eaten.She would oblige with a passion fruit twister, and a Monaco bar if I was still hungry. Good days
