Group 2-winning daughter of Galileo (Ire), Elizabeth Browning (Ire) (lot 247) entered the ring. The bidding climbed rapidly, with Alex Elliot having the final say over underbidder Hubie de Burgh at 700,000gns. This beautifully bred filly is a full-sister to Group 1 winner Johannes Vermeer (Ire), and she was sold by Ballydoyle Racing on behalf of China Horse Club International and Mrs. John Magnier. Elizabeth Browning is bound for the paddocks, as Alex Elliot explained, "She's been bought for a client of mine. These types of fillies are so hard to find, and I think if she had been here in December she would have brought more, as there is a stronger market at that sale for a horse like her. She's a full-sister to a Group 1-winning 2-year-old, and a group winner and a winner at two herself, so she has everything. The mating plan has yet to be decided." There were 301 lots offered on this first day of selling, 31 more than during the equivalent session last year, resulting in 250 horses finding new homes.

  • ARE SUPER TRAINERS GOOD OR BAD for the SPORT? by Chris Mcgrath Bill Finley Has Part II of His Two-Part Series on “Super Trainers” Dominating the Game of Racing
    THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 2018 LETTER FROM ASCOT: HEROES AND GOATS ARE SUPER TRAINERS GOOD by Dave Johnson OR BAD FOR THE SPORT? When I heard the Ascot track announcer say, "Tony Curtis is heading to the stalls," it took me a while to put two and two together. "I thought Tony Curtis was dead," the guy next to me in the press box muttered. I was sure he was, too. But then I realized the announcer was talking about #16 in Wednesday's G2 Royal Hunt Cup Handicap. For those of you who always complain about short fields and favorites with ever blinking low odds, consider the fact that 32 were entered for this race today, and 30 ran. They needed three starting gates for the straight-on one-mile test. The favorite was 7-1. And it wasn't Tony Curtis (GB) (Rock of Click above to watch TDN video of trainers discussing the Gibraltar {Ire})--he finished nineteenth at 40-1.

Cupʼs Contenders in Market Order of Preference as of 2nd October 2014 Check out the 2016 Melbourne Cup Market Order of Preference with Unibet MY TOP 10 CONTENDERS Comments In BOLD THE OFFER Underwood Stakes run was pretty good. Very good Sydney Cup winner showed acceleration. All good wins have been on affected ground which is a bit of a query. Underwood Stakes run was on top of the ground and showed acceleration there. Winning chance. ADMIRE RAKTI Reasonable closing performance in the Japan Cup last year. Think the Handicapper has found him with 58kg. Brings good enough form, and accelerates quite ok, but Iʼm going to risk him at the weights in terms of Winning the Melbourne Cup. BANDE He is a leader and he sticks on well. Long time since weʼve seen a bold front runner lead all the way in the Melbourne Cup, Might and Power did it by an eyelash. Will be having the lead up run in the Caulfiled Cup which is a positive. A winning chance. LUCIA VALENTINA Best form on wet tracks. Iʼm going to risk her on reasonable ground in a race like the Melbourne Cup. SILENT ACHIEVER Has found something with blinkers this horse, Underwood Stakes run this time in was ok. Tranier not thrilled by a mare carrying 56.5kg in the Cup this year, so might be aimed at the Cox Plate then, but wouldnʼt surprise to see her run in the Melbourne Cup. I could go around it in the Melbourne Cup.

  • Plants That Are Poisonous to Alpacas
    Plants that are Poisonous to Alpacas Please Note: Please consult with your veterinarian to discuss the plants poisonous to alpacas in your area. There could be plants in your area that are also poisonous to alpacas that are not on this list. Acorns: African rue : Agave lechuguilla: Amaryllis : Arrow grass: Autumn crocus : The plant has been mistaken by foragers for ramsons , which it vaguely resembles, but is a deadly poison due to the presence of colchicine , a useful drug with a narrow therapeutic index . The symptoms of colchicine poisoning resemble those of arsenic and there is no antidote. Despite its toxicity, colchicine is an approved treatment for gout and is also used in plant breeding to produce polyploid strains. Azalea : Bear grass: Sand Begonia: Bird of Paradise: Bitter weed, Rubber weed: Black laurel & Mountain laurel : Black locust : (Robinia pseudoacacia) – Black locust is a naturalized species that grows as a tree or shrub in open woods, waste places, and along fence rows throughout Ohio. Leaves are alternate and are pinnately compound, with more than 10 leaflets per leaf. A pair of spines occurs at the base of each leaf. White flowers appear in loose drooping clusters in May or June and later form long flattened brown seedpods. Several toxic compounds are found in black locust sprouts, leaves, bark, flowers, and seed pods, including a glycoside (robitin) and phytotoxins (robin and phasin). Of grazing animals, horses are most susceptible to the effects of black locust. Poisoning and death have been reported for horses consuming bark, leaves, or sprouts. Livestock have also been poisoned by drinking water in which seedpods have soaked.
