Gee they forgot a couple of the big days on that calendar.

The ones I have pencilled in are
May 2nd  - Hollindale Cup, Silk Stocking, PM Cup.
May 16th - Doomben Cup Day
June 6th - Stradbroke Day
June13th - Ipswich Cup Day

I suppose technically the Gold Coast & Ipswich are not in Brisbane Carnival but don't these still count as Winter Carnival Days?

A leading Sydney trainer finding it a bit frustrating that stabling accommodation in Brisbane for carnival raiders from down south is hard to find......QR should be able to help...shouldn't they.?

Has that trainer contacted QTC re accommodation?

Eagle Farm trainers - you'd know the name of at least ONE - are being most helpful in freeing up their on-course boxes.  The QTC has even banished the COTC horses to Doomben for the winter.  This has provided an extra 8 boxes or so.

Stable switch - Top mare now belongs to Gai
Brad Waters
Thursday, 16 April 2009

Bonny mare Belong To Many has joined the Gai Waterhouse stable and will be prepared for a Brisbane winter campaign.

The Group II winner was knocked down to Vin Cox Bloodstock, buying on behalf of a client, for $525,000 on Tuesday at the Inglis Australian Easter Broodmare Sale at Newmarket.

Waterhouse took delivery of Belong To Many late Wednesday and the mare made her first appearance for the champion trainer at trackwork on Thursday morning.

“She only had a trot and canter at Randwick this morning and you could see why her previous owners loved her,” Waterhouse stable manager Robyn Hartney said.

“She’s just a beautiful mare and we’re very pleased to have her with us.

“Gai has decided to target the fillies and mares races up in Brisbane with her, races like the Silk Stocking and we might even step her up to 1400 metre races like the Group I Winter Stakes.”

Former trainer Barbara Joseph shed a little tear after Belong To Many’s fighting second to Court in last Saturday’s Sapphire Stakes in her final start for the stable but was pleased to see the mare go to the Waterhouse stable.

“All I wanted was for her to go to a decent place after racing with us,” Joseph said.
“She’s done that now, I’m pleased with that,” Joseph said.

I know some  guys who had a share in this horse 800 shares cost  them less than $1k and had tons of fun and good earner from day one when they got their money back at its' first start .

Now she's coming to Brisbane they'll be happy to see her race in their home town although no longer own her.
