Bit of karma for RRicci there although it probably saved him the interview.
I was so busy anti-funking Benie Des Dieux that I genuinely didn't realise Roksana had won.
Trip report:
Two firsts and three seconds made for a profitable day.
Neil's preview dinner on Saturday has paid for itself; I noted both Melon and Thomas Derby from that. Think Lydia Hislop was keen on that, but I may be over-crediting her and it could have been someone else.
So many snowflakes around (young and old) refusing to stand outside in the rain, so we could get right near the finishing line from Tatts.
Tatts was a lot roomier than I expected, by contrast there seemed to be less space in club.
There is a jockey club app where you can download your tickets; that may seem a great idea, but mobile signal wasn't that great with O2, hence much cursing and fun times at the gate.
Getting in and out in a car is still pretty shit at the festival.
Overall was a much more enjoyable day than I remembered.
