Looking to help STEVE HEWLETT 🏇🎣 🛥👩🦳📻🏃♂️ with Doomben/Fourex Cup research. Iconic Qld race but last local winner? We're back to Lord Seaman (Don Cleal/
Maurice Logue, 83, but need a check on Les' Choice (Kerry Young/Carl Symons) 86 and Mr Trick (E A Robinson/Maree Lyndon) 85? RaceQ
Strange to see some old TVN work on Racing.com (free of charge of course) with the brilliant Steve Moran and Price Kent Racing rarely speechless after a G1 Australian Cup at Melbourne Racing Club
How Australian would it be if The Map ('you could say as in Map of Tassie') wins the Victoria Racing Club The Lexus Melbourne Cup co-trained by an Oopy (name mispronounced after an old Aussie three-pence)
My Oopy tale. (Hopefully better told).
Racing SA Armidale Stud

Oopy? “Apparently I was small and round like a threepence when I was born and my father called me Thrippy,” said MacGillivray.
“My sister, who was 15 months older, couldn’t say Thrippy so it became Oppy and I’ve been Oopy since I was 6 months old.”
Now for Victoria Racing Club Cup!
The Dona McQueen story updated with one of her poems - 'Gettin Beat!'
'An owner trainer I'll be the one/I'll show those blokes' how it's done/Peter Moody, you think you're number one/Look out brother here I come.'
Look out for Dona Wangaratta Turf Club today

My goodness. Now Dan Beasley retires from the saddle, Dona McQueen is retired against her passions from a lifetime assisting industry players & my Racenet column gets put into the draft.
Hopefully go out with a good read and a look for elsewhere

Ok so we lose Dan Beasley forever from the saddle for now, Dona McQueen for now from training people like Danny, and also my Racenet column that shares their stories - all in the week we though it went ok - fair enough! #GreatGame

For those who loved the Dona McQueen Dan Beasley yarn on Racenet I found Dona the songwriter:
'I'll bet you 50 bucks Peter Moody will be there/
'I wonder in his newfound life has he grown any hair?'
