It was a great thrill to again hold this cherished Cup, but little did I know that a short time later, I would be holding aloft my own piece of Australian racing history. I have always wished I had a horse that was good enough to win this great race, and boy have I gone close. Now with Fiorente I have reached the summit. This entire is everything a trainer could possibly ask for in a champion horse. For Damien Oliver, me, the 38 strong group of won- derful owners and for everyone in Australia who backed him or enjoyed his win, Fiorente provided immense pleasure and a magnificent experience. My husband, my children and their spouses, my mother and father in-law, and all the Tulloch Lodge staff, have helped me reach this pinnacle and I can’t thank you all enough. The difference between sport in Victoria and NSW is immense. In Victoria, people are com- pletely aware of all their sports stars, they follow their respective sports ever so keenly and they live and die by their teams. It is just not the same in NSW. I have won five Golden Slippers, seven Doncaster Handicaps and well over 100 Group Ones Australia wide. But winning the Melbourne Cup is something completely different: it is the race that stops a nation. When walking up the street since the win people are going out of their way to say hello: “Oh you won the Cup, congratulations” and, “You got your Cup Gai, well done.” “Great to see you win the Cup Gai, what a win from that horse.” This also, “Yes, I backed him, at the two furlong pole we were home!” Everyday strangers are congratulating me and this perfectly illustrates the significance of the Melbourne Cup to the Australian public. This time of year I am on the road searching for 8 www.gaiwaterhouse.com.au A jubilant Gai with connections at the podium the next Champion. Along with my trusty team, I am on the prowl through Australia Gai with Joe and moving from south to north searching for the Anne Hayden next star of Australian racing.

    PRIME DISPATCH EDITION 277 – 01/09/2020 Compiled by Joe o’NeILL Zizzis has retired and will go to the 2019 Everest winner Yes Yes Yes!!! The mating should produce a ¾ to Rubisaki!!! It certainly has been a tough year for many Australians. I’m fortunate it has been pretty much business as usual for us. The new season started strongly with a couple of winners. We should have a reasonable number of runners during the Spring with the number of runners increasing as we get closer to Christmas. We are indebted to the staffs at each of the racing jurisdictions for keeping racing going during the past few months when many industries have been closed or operating at low levels. I was keen to find out the numbers of mares being bred for the coming season. The feeling I got while I was in the Hunter Valley was the numbers are good although some of the lower end sires were struggling a bit. The situation in many of the smaller states isn’t as good with many smaller or hobby breeders holding back. We purchase most of our yearlings from the NSW studs so the lesser numbers being bred across the country shouldn’t have a big effect on us. I picked up quite a bit of information while I was in the Hunter. The breeders in this region really have their fingers on the pulse and pick up trends earlier than most. I suppose that is why 18 of the top 20 sires on the Australian General Sires List for last season either stood in NSW or will stand there for the coming season.

    Australian Racing Fact Book A Guide to the Racing Industry in Australia 2000 - 2001 Published by the Australian Racing Board December 2001 1 Although every effort has been made to ensure the information provided in the Australian Racing Fact Book, this publication may contain inaccuracies or typographical errors. The Australian Racing Board assumes no responsibility for any such inaccuracies, errors or omissions in this publication or in other documents referred to within the publication. We would appreciate being notified of any errors that are discovered. 2 FForewordoreword The Australian Racing Board is pleased to introduce the third edition of The Australian Racing Fact Book, our annual reference guide to the Australian thoroughbred racing industry. In a few years we will celebrate the bicentenary of racing in Australia. In the almost 200 years since its beginnings, a three day meeting held in Hyde Park in 1810, Australian racing has become not only one of this nation's best loved sports but also a major component of the economy. By 2001 thoroughbred racing has grown to become an industry that generates a gross economic impact of $7.74 billion, and provides work, directly and indirectly, for 249,000 people. When you bear this in mind it is only to be expected that there is keen interest, from both within the industry and more generally, in records relating to the health and performance of the Australian thoroughbred racing industry. Our intention in producing the Fact Book is to meet this demand by assembling a range of useful facts and figures as a handy guide to any person seeking information on major aspects of the industry.

    STALLIONS 2017 STALLIONS 2017 Your Key to Success Welcome to Rathbarry & Glenview Studs 2017 Dear Breeders, The nature of the bloodstock industry is that each and every year brings fresh challenges as well STALLIONS 2017 as new achievements and 2016 has been no different. The main concern is that there has been increased catalogue sizes to cater for a larger foal crop of 2015, so the necessity for breeders to focus on quality and value is more important than ever. Happily we have witnessed another fantastic year for ACCLAMATION’s progeny on the track with 17 Black Type performers including Group 1 Prix de l’Abbaye winner MARSHA and Dual Group 2 winning 2-Y-O MEHMAS. LIMATO has again proved a great advertisement for TAGULA in 2016, when competing at the highest level. He was successful in Group 1 July Cup and Group 1 Prix de la Foret and we look forward to even more successes for him in 2017. As we write the first crop foals by the Group 2 Winning and Dual Group 1 placed 2-Y-O MOOHAAJIM and the Dual Group 1 Winning Miler, XTENSION, are being prepared for the sales ring and we are confident that you will be impressed by their excellent quality and confirmation. In 2017 we are proud to introduce two new stallions which will offer breeders a great variety of choice to our existing roster - AJAYA, the Group 2 Gimcrack Stakes Winning 2-Y-O by Leading Sire Invincible Spirit from an established stallion producing female line and KODI BEAR, the Group 2 Winner of 4 Stakes Races from 7-8 furlongs, by Multiple Stakes Producing sire Kodiac.
