  • Atc Chairman's
    ATC CHAIRMAN’S COMMUNICATION TO MEMBERS JULY 2016 WINX & CHAUTAUQUA RATED WORLD’S BEST AFTER THE CHAMPIONSHIPS There were many great highlights from the Sydney Autumn Carnival, but the performances of two horses further served to highlight the strength of Sydney racing. Winx was rated the world’s best miler and best horse on turf by the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities after The Championships. This followed her unbeaten Autumn campaign in Sydney where Winx took out four of our best races - the Optus Business Apollo Stakes, Precise Air Chipping Norton Stakes, China Horse Club George Ryder Stakes and that amazing victory in The Star Doncaster Mile. At the time of writing Winx remained equal second on the overall World’s Best Racehorse Rankings, and second best miler behind Japan’s A Shin Hikari. We look forward to seeing Winx in Sydney again during the Spring of 2016, where her trainer Chris Waller has already mapped out three races – the Pro-Ride Warwick Stakes at Royal Randwick on 20 August, the Tattersals Chelmsford Stakes at Royal Randwick on 3 September and the Group 1 Colgate Optic White Stakes (George Main) at Royal Randwick on 17 September. Chautauqua – who won his second successive Darley TJ Smith Stakes with an incredible last to first finish – was rated the world’s best sprinter after this win, a ranking he retains at the time of writing. He went on after The Championships to beat a world-class field in the Group 1 Hong Kong Chairman’s Sprint at Sha Tin. Congratulations to Chris Waller and Hugh Bowman for their handling of Winx, and also to Team Hawkes and Tommy Berry for their great work with Chautauqua.

While the number 13 may be unlucky for some, April 13 has been fortuitous for two greats of the Australian Turf, with Winx’s swansong coming exactly six years to the day since the great Black Caviar (Bel Esprit) signed off with her 25th and final career victory in the T J Smith Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) at the same venue.

    9 LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL NOTICE OF MOTION ORDINARY MEETING 06/02/2013 ITEM NO: NOMO 04 FILE NO: 2013/0335 SUBJECT: EVENTS TEAM AUTHOR: CLR TONY HADCHITI COMMUNITY THE COMMUNITY IS SUPPORTED BY A WELL STRATEGIC MANAGED AND RESPONSIVE COUNCIL PLAN REFERENCE: BACKGROUND: Council recently held two major community events, being namely New Years Eve and Australia Day. The New Years Eve event held at Chipping Norton Lakes was, I believe, the first time Council has this event. The event was attended by thousands of families who enjoyed a great evening of entertainment followed by fireworks. The Australia Day event held at Woodward Park was extraordinary with exceptional entertainment and was enjoyed by over 10,000 people. As Councillors, we have the simple task of allocating funds for these events but it was the hard work of the events team and other council officers that ensured they were a success. The Events Team who coordinated both events, were assisted by a number of Council officers who ensured that every moment was enjoyed by those who attended. It is important that the hard work of these Council officers does not go unrecognised. NOTICE OF MOTION: That Council: 1. Congratulate the Events Team on the coordination of the New Years and Australia Day events and acknowledge the efforts of all Council officers in making the events a success. 2.
