Rosehill's back at last. I think it's just changed from a soft 8 to heavy 9.

Nice to hear from you again mcgoo, hope you're well?

UAE owners give their horses unpronounceable names, the US let their children name their horses but Aussies have some real imagination. :D

Thanks Derek. Still doing my best cockroach impression :D .. got covid during radiation which added a little spice :shock: .
Hope you are going well mate.
Yeah, thank goodness the Aussie(especially Queensland) sense of humour is still present. It adds a little sanity in bonkers times. :D

I've never traded Australian racing before but I'm thinking of doing so this weekend. Is it only NSW that incurs the turnover charge? If so I'm thinking of trying Eagle Farm - is it expected to have decent turnover? Thanks.

Saw 5 tracksiders at Sunshine Coast today, could well have been others I didn't spot too. Must be making stuff all though, zero liquidity these days. 12 months ago you'd be lucky to see 1.

Wow. Like seagulls after a chip. They must have given Albion Park a miss. Weirdly in one race the leader was $1.2 in the straight when gone on the TV so the race must have been about over on track.
