Surfaces from the depths …

I have a proper post, with THINGS, and then another very serious post, with important things, but I have to get this out first, or will be drummed out of the country:

GO BLACK CAVIAR!

Having grown up around various corners of the horse industry, I'm always a bit ambivalent about racing, but she is a beautiful and much-loved mare who really loves to run. And is AMAZING.

Of course, being a horse, she may take one look at Royal Ascot and decide 'Nah, buggrit …' They're like much bigger, somewhat dimmer cats that way.

She did beautifully! YAY Black Caviar, long may she continue to love to run :)

Yay indeed! I do hope they don't retire her yet, but I also hope she has a nice little break to recover. There are places in England that are essentially horse spas, I do hope she's been put up at one of those ;-)
