Added: 2026-05-22

[00:00:00]Eric's Girl just about ready to run.

[00:00:04]Gates fly, they're racing. Rendezvous in Rio had an awkward beginning. Is racing towards the back. Eric's Girl on the outside broke out well. Miss River Dancer's red cap is right in the center.

[00:00:16]They're followed by Spring Tide. Baby Red is on the far side. Then further back in the field Vindaland is in the green. Three off the outside, extreme outside Platinum Shay. Beautiful One's there, too, the nose band. Then Destiny's Dream followed on the far side by Miss Fantastic in the red. Then Gathering Winter further back in running. Rendezvous in Rio has recovered from a messy start. Is four lengths off the leader. Then Artifact 21, Scarlet, Polly Plummer is off the bridle. And further back is Bright Comet. 400 m to go. Miss River Dancer, Rendezvous in Rio travels very nicely on the outside.

[00:00:49]Comes to stake a big claim. Platinum Shay on the near side. Then Beautiful One, Destiny's Dream on the inside in the orange is also running on. Miss River Dancer, Rendezvous in Rio, Destiny's Dream on the inside. Then came behind that Beautiful One. Polly Plummer is running on from behind. It's Rendezvous in Rio, Miss River Dancer.

[00:01:08]And here's Miss Fantastic. Polly Plummer is flying on the outside, but Miss Fantastic holding on got there. Miss Fantastic from Polly Plummer. Then Rendezvous in Rio. And further back in the field was Miss River Dancer.

[00:01:23]It's a close-up shot. Number 10 on the inside in the red from Polly Plummer on the near side. But it goes the way of number 10, Miss Fantastic. [music] Yeah, we've had three races and managed to interview Keegan in two races. Well done, Keegan.

[00:01:38]I thought it was a nice win from this filly coming back from a bit of a rest, eh? Yeah, it was always my concern coming off a little bit of a break, but uh she seemed to handle it quite nicely.

[00:01:45]She lacked that early pace, which indicates she's probably looking for a little bit further. And when I got her out in the open, um she she sort of hit the front and didn't know what to do. I thought I'd find a little bit more than I did, but she was entitled to get a little bit tired underneath me and uh just the way the race planned out so I was very lucky that Gavin was going forward and was able to latch on to him a little bit and then get your run on his outside but uh fantastic win. Well done to Traveling.

[00:02:08]Well done to Mr. Jean Sammy. Well done to Mr. Terry. Thank you very much for the opportunities. And just a report back about the baby in the last the saddles the saddle slipped slightly out the gates but he was never in it. He he was always on the wrong leg and he's a little He was very awkward throughout and uh obviously not his sort of run but I'm sure he'll be back and yeah I just want to report back for for that. It was just very unfortunate and whilst I'm here it was my little one's sixth birthday yesterday so to me a happy birthday girl and wish you many more. Again thanks very much for your updates. Obviously I mean everybody must have thought he was a little bit disappointing and again thank you very much for the update. Yeah appreciate thank you. Right who's going to come Sean you're going to come have a chat before the boys come in?

[00:02:49]And again thank you to you for your for your honesty and you said this filly definitely had a chance. I know it was a hard fought win but at least it's she's in the winner's box. Look at the 300 we were looking good. The 200 we were not looking so pretty but uh Keegan's got the job done. Very happy that she's got home. Um we thought you know maybe the first time she could win but we were also worried about the distance John you know and uh I think this filly's going to get 2000 so it's a very good win.

[00:03:15]Lovely to have the most of the owners here. I mean um Aidan and Jared and Marlon and Ancha and a lovely group of guys. Well done.

[00:03:24]Double for the stable and for Keegan and obviously um to bet rose always. Thank you very much Johnny. Thanks. Thanks very much. Who's coming in Dylon come in come in guys come in come in come in come in. Well done. Congratulations.

[00:04:38]Having a winner I just want to mention what you want one of my close friends Gerald Frank just mentioned to me he's been with me uh racing nine times and uh what do you want every time he's been with me we've actually won. So nine in a row I don't think there's another record like that. So I have to keep him close to me.

[00:04:55]Uh what do you want and all the partners Marlon who's not here Uncle Aiden Jared and TKP as well all the best. Listen at the moment if we don't see traveling at the races there's a problem.
