A tale of two jockeys...

Just thought I'd drop a quick message before I head out for NYE.

Firstly, let us look at N. Callow on California Dane. Noel knew he had the best horse, so took a trail one out behind the leader, was never in any trouble, and won easily.

Danny Beasley, on Fashions Afield, put her in a pocket behind the leaders, which on the tight Doomben circuit is always a lottery. Beasley went for a run between two horses, the door shut, and she ran fifth.

If you are on a good thing - ride them like it. That is what Noel did. Beasley should have a look at the tape. I'm not talking through my kick either, as I didn't back Fashions Afield today.

As it is, Fashions price for the MM 3YO hasn't exactly blown, but I'm still confident about her for her main mission.

Results today mixed. California Dane won, Transferral missed a place (came up a lot shorter than I anticipated as well), and Leonurus second.

Happy new year and good punting.
