In the bleak mid-winter

Shades of Daysa recorded her first win of 2012 when she took last nights A2. After a burst of early pace she needed to dig deep off the last bend to hang on by a short head in 29.36. This bitch has some real guts and you couldn't ask any more of her on such a horrible cold night.

Westmead Sheba didn't let the rise in grade stop her winning again as she ran out a 3/4 length winner of the A7 in 29.81. This is two wins and a second place from just four races, she is shaping up to be a nice bitch.
