BC Cup Day, Hastings Park, Race 10, 1 3/8 miles, Purse 22K 56.3GP [01:18]
This was the day's final race, a marathon test of endurance for these 10 horses. It's an unusual distance because few horses ever have cause to race this far, & few are bred to relish it. The conditions were track fast and dry, favouring speed horses, with partial sun and high humidity, with a temperature of 28 degrees. The video picks up well into the race, during which the runners crossed the finish line a rtotal of 3 times, around the 5/8 mile oval in Vancouver.

I´ma believer in them... [03:08]
Tohle video nebylo nijak v plánu, ale když on ten Sony Vegas je tak skvělý program, písnička je taky super a když je téma, o čem video dělat, tak kdo mi v tom zabrání? Možná pomalý render, ale tentokrát to měl kupodivu za 3 hodiny hotové :)) Prostě jsme jen chtěla dát najevo (jakoby to už nestačilo, co?), že jeho koním věřím, ať se děje cokoliv... I´ma Believer - Smash Mouth (nemůžu nepodotknout, že se mi více líbí originální verze od Neila Diamonda, ale ta se se svým temperamentem může jen těžko hodit k dostihům :))

huge interest in the Bumper at Ffos Las [01:31]
Well normally many racegoers leave when it's time for the 'bumper'; usually the last race . But not down at Ffos Las. As in Ireland, bumpers hold great interest. Though there are no jumps (the idea being it's a introduction to the racecourse for jumps horses who haven't run on the flat) to connections and friends here the bumper is a time of great excitement to see the potential of these young horses for the first time. I have never known a race with so many tips flying around!!! I bet on Kuilsriver and Silver Commander as this bumper was 1 mile 6 furlongs; a shorter distance than the 2 miles these races are normally; and that distance should suit them. It's a good trick question in pub quizzes. What's the shortest race under national hunt rules?' It's not two miles after all! I also had a tip for Magical Man too so could these big priced outsiders upset 'Keys'; the horse sent by 1990 Derby winning flat trainer Roger Charlton from Beckhampton? I'd had a great day betting but a 25/1 winner would be a great end to the day... The temperature had fallen almost ten degrees to just plus five but most people braved the cold and remained to watch in an exciting atmosphere...
