Hi Kaylene - I thought it might be a bit of fun.

I give my word that the horses were randomly picked... I am a little embarrassed after a recent conversation with my friend Kathy - that I couldn't unfortunately guarantee her the Irish nag... and lo and behold!! It was obviously meant to be.

I have no idea at all which horses are good ones... I hope Harris Tweed does you proud, Kaylene.

My horse from last year is, I think, still swimming towards the finish line. Maybe Shocking will be shocking and win this year!!!

Kathy - Master O'Reilly is green with a few yellow stars

Harris Tweed is red and black vertical stripes

Shocking is dark grey with orange diamonds on a slant.
