Dutchess moves on
John McD reports:
... Just to let you know that Dutchess went back to work yesterday at Vicki"s. ... she certainly looks a picture and I cannot see any benefit in giving her 6 months off as Murray suggested.
The horse that won her qualifying trial by Muscles Yankee is highly regarded and has already won a race. You never know, you may just see her on the track in April, keep your fingers crossed.

Lucie on the track!
Kurt reports :
At the end of the trials, Murray brought baby Lucie out on to the track. Amazing! Lucie, who was figuratively sucking a sugary hoof a few weeks back, now with a work-cart behind her, trotting neatly (give or take the occasional ooooh! at the sight of a vehicle or a flowering irrigation system or … a corner) round the Motukarara grass track…
Heavens! The ‘family’ are up and going!
Maybe she will be one of the first Love You babes to race in New Zealand.
