So who is everyones favourite racehorse??? One from the past and one from the present??

Mine are,

Past: Lonhro, his win in the Australian Cup was awesome. What a true champion. (His Daddy wasn't half bad either!)

Present: Definitely Apache Cat. God I love that horse. My friend was in Sydney recently strapping a horse and she said that The Cat is awesome in real life and is a real showoff. He was being really cheeky in the stalls with his strapper. Plus he is a champion. 5 straight Group 1 wins?? Yes please.

The "Goondiwindi Grey" Gunsynd.
Huge admiration for horses such as Octaganol,the Diva and Might and Power.
Apache Cat-love him ,he reminds me of Pud with all the white markings.

Local horses I loved Paddy Me Lad and strapped him often for Dennis.
Have a huge soft spot for Exit Lane that my friend owns and who I'm getting for a hack.Little horse with a big heart .

Harness horses
Pure Steel -what a champion.
Village Kid- Well what can you say about Willy.25 years old and still thinks he's a 2 yr old

Past- Pharlap.. Who doesn't have Pharlap as there past favourite horse?!?! hehe

Present - Well the whole entire racing stables where I am are all my favourite.

But the one that defently stands out would have to be
Sunovabeach - What an aaaaammazing horse he is, I can only dream that I can buy him when he finishs racing, even though I kind of have a chance too. He is such a cute funny character. I see him as the little 4year old that just everyone loves. The best thing about walking into the stables is hearing his ( and my own horse's! hehe ) neigh. I love it when you go to give him his feed and he tucks his head away and then when you get closer he looks as if to say 'Oh for me?' with his gorgeous eyes. I love how he has a dorky hair cut, but it is HIM. I just love him in general..
He may not be the best but We love him and I couldn't imagine the stables without him.

Others would be:
Cavalier way - he is so cute at the stables. He aswell has a really dorky forlock but he is so cute. His attitude to work is amazing. He has had a few wins aswell - bonus! hehe

Giho - He who is really a QH in disguise, is stunning. He will go far in the show world this horse.. He has had 2 wins in 2 weeks, such a top horse. Confident and just an amazing heart.

Newmarket

Balestrini is my favourite

misskel

I meant to add in my original post that the Patchy Cat reminds me of a very cheeky welsh A!!!

And Phar Lap is also a fave. So many champions of so many eras. Tie The Knot. What a star!!

My favourite local horse would be Grand Turismo! He should have been with Louie from the start and god only knows what he could have been!!! Go the grand horse!

Newmarket....Balestrini has a new home now yay for Korilya.
