Royale Harvest Is Back

Promising four year old mare Royale Harvest blows away the opposition.

After having a long slow preparation, Royale Harvest showed she could be a horse to follow over the next few months with a brilliant first up win at Ascot yesterday. The mare has always shown above average ability, however being a very gross type of horse, she has taken a bit longer than usual to mature into a complete race horse.

Royale Harvest is the last horse retained by the Amelia Park Club out of the six original purchases. She was originally raced in partnership with The Keith Biggs Group and Rod Russel, however when they decided to relinquish their share, Peter Walsh was keen to keep her for stud and so purchased the other 50%. I am sure that Keith and Rod will both be pleased to see the mare go on and become a good winner for the new connections.

There was also another new name amongst the list of owners yesterday. The other name was that of a certain Ms G Robbins. For those of you not familiar with Ms Robbins, perhaps the name Grace may shed more light on the scene. That’s right. Peter gifted a share of the horse to the gorgeous lady in his life, the divine Ms Grace. If Grace proves to be a lucky owner, Peter may have to put Grace into more horses.

Meanwhile Royale Harvest has pulled up well and may go around again in another fillies and mares race on Melbourne Cup day on her way to bigger and better things during the carnival.
