Robert 'Crash' Craddock

And just a couple of random thoughts about Pride and Jenny, who does something that we all love seeing, a racehorse who gallops off into the night and leads by 20 lengths.

A good mate of mine who's a racing rider said to me, eventually...

she will burn out because every run is a gut buster.

Like she just, it requires extraordinary energy to do that.

He said, but guess what?

Here she is at age eight, all the horses that have trailed her have burned out and she's still going.

That's extraordinary.

Point two is that, Gerard, you should see the faces of the jockeys who chase her.

They are bewildered because no one knows what to do.

They sit back there and they think, do we chase or don't we?

And eventually, like on Saturday, she humiliates them all.

So I'll just leave you with this thought.

If you watch one horse race in the next month, watch the Durban Cup on Saturday week when she's racing the Melbourne Cup winner half yours and

Pride and Jenny will head off into the sunset and Jamie Mellon will be on half yours, will be sitting back in the field looking and thinking, oh, when do I go?

When do I chase?

Now or it's now too soon?

Will I break my heart?

You know?

So it's just, it'll be a wonderful race.

Oh, Gerard, like, you know, 60 – that was watched by 12 million people.
