I think I love Australia. Or at least love Australian racing. And I’ve only been to one race meeting. I still have three to go in the Spring Racing Carnival including tomorrow’s Melbourne Cup.

Victoria Derby Day, Saturday gone, was one of my most enjoyable days at the races, ever. Up there on a par with Sea The Stars’ Champion Stakes in 2009, Trading Leather’s 2013 Irish Derby or when I backed five winners at Galway Hurdle day 2011.
