Interesting to read that Doumaran is now trained by Darren Weir? Looks like Williams is the still in the ownership.

Wonder if Weir can get this thing to jump out of the gates!

Watching Darren Weir improving just about every horse he gets his hands on, had the cynical part of me believing it was something he was putting in the horse's water.

After watching High Church win today's $100,000 Werribee Cup you can only give the Weir stable full credit.

High Church is a horse I've always liked and backed alot but pre Weir he seemed to carry his head high and looked reluctant at times to really stretch his neck and have a go.
All his races for the new stable have been good and he now looks a very genuine race horse.
Don't know what the new owners paid but plenty of good times for them, that's for sure.

Waited a long time for High Church to get on to wet ground but missed the price and could only watch.

Williams certainly let some good stock go and with some moist tracks up north surely more wins to come.

What a good buy.

He is under new ownership and there are plenty of them.

Will be interesting to see if Weir can get him to jump out of the gates because jumping will probably be his go.

Tuesday Trials Heat 19 at St Arnaud, Doumaran has first public trial for Weir.

Will be interesting to see if he jumps away after 3 refusals for Team Williams.

I'm tipping he will.

Doumaran scratched. Hope he trials soon.
And we won't be seeing Doumaran going over the jumps. Trust me

Incredibly well weighted to.

Welcome back champ

Also proving it was a nonsense to call this a 2 horse race as Peter did

Nice quinny divvy

Gintara · « 2017-Sep-16, 01:02 PM **Reply #184** »

Interesting today

Almandin
Bondi Beach
Aloft
Hans Holbien
Crocodile Rock
Granddukeoftuscany

Starting to wonder is Aloft the pea for Lloyd this year

Great win.

Wily will be good for a bite.

Gintara · « 2017-Sep-16, 05:49 PM **Reply #186** »

Yep.

Ollie blew the whistle and he really put them away

nemisis · « 2018-Feb-27, 02:18 PM **Reply #187** »

Graeme Rogerson has purchased six of Lloyd's horses to race in NZ as well as here.

Gallante is one of them and I wonder if Hans Holbein is there too.

I'm sure some of Lloyd's wet trackers will be much more at home on NZ tracks and jumping could always be an option.

Nice win by Homesman - http://www.racingaustralia.horse/InteractiveForm/HorseFullForm.aspx?horsecode=NzkxNTczNTM2OA%3d%3d&src=horseform&raceentry=MTcyMjQyOTQ2MjY%3d

Lloyd could have another handy one there as it was first up in the country after about 7 months off.

nemisis · « 2018-Mar-08, 06:27 PM **Reply #189** »

The five horses G Rogerson bought off Lloyd Williams are Gallante, Assign,Pattern My Bantry Bay and Surrey who is an unraced son of High Chaparral and Makybe Diva.

Owner Lloyd Williams is weighing up whether to run Almandin in Sydney Autumn. At this stage thinking runs in the Group One Tancred Stakes @rosehillgardens on March 31.

wily ole dog · « 2018-Mar-18, 06:13 PM **Reply #191** »

I’f Almandin doesn’t run in the syd cup, Lloyd cements his I age of a rich idiot with too much cash and no idea

samatt · « 2018-Mar-19, 10:49 PM **Reply #192** »

Noticed Our Century is now with Kim Waugh. Surprised me to see him sold, I always had a good opinion of him.

No autumn for Johannes Vermeer or Rekindling. Is Rekindling still being set for the Ascot Gold Cup? Doesn't sound like it.

Johannes will be incredibly hard to beat in the Melbourne Cup this year if he makes it back there in one piece. Clear one to beat, should still get in ok at the weights due to being a bridesmaid last year.

We finally get to see Surrey publicly for the first time.

The gelded son of High Chaparral and Maykbe Diva is a 5yr old.

I'm sure G Rogerson will find a race for him.

The performance of Yucatan in yesterday's Herbert Power would have to be one of the most extraordinary things I've seen in a long time.
The time of 2:26.47 sec would also show it to be incredible sustained speed.

Seems that people at Coolmore now know exactly the right type of Galileo to bring out here.

James McDonald's comment that Lloyd 'always promised to put me on a good one' was interesting

wily ole dog · « 2018-Oct-14, 08:43 AM **Reply #195** »

Has some very good form around Rekindling, Capri & Salouen

nemisis · « 2018-Oct-14, 08:59 AM **Reply #196** »

Did you see that one coming though Wily?

Might and Power comes to mind without Jim Cassidy's whip riding.

Beat The Taj Mahal into second in his maiden win way back in August 2016 as well.

My question is ... How is he allowed to race as Yucatan in Australia when there's a local 3yo currently racing with the same name ...... ran 7th at its first start at Morphettville on June 9th.

The inferior gelding should be made to change his name. Not only that he should change it himself.
