Two runners today for the team, both sons of So You Think.

Without Thinking heads to the big league for the first time, racing in the Group 3 Gunsynd 1600m on Stradbroke Day at Eagle Farm with Michael Hellyer aboard.

Having done nothing wrong this campaign with 3 victories, hopefully he can keep progressing and run a big race.

So Dapper gets out to 1800m at the Gold Coast where he performed so well in January; with 61kg it will be challenging but we look forward to a nice run.

Good luck all!

A great Esprit Racing training effort to have Bronzed Venom back from his issues and racing well, to nearly win today’s 1350m race at Ipswich.

We thought he was home!

Twilight Sunshine Coast races today and the two girls, She Shall Rule and Dutch Delight, will go around.

She Shall Rule raced very greenly on debut and should improve today with that Raceday experience, whilst Dutchy broke her maiden finally last start and faces a rapid rise in distance and class.

Good luck all!

Queensland Oaks week, and who could forget Ethereal's wonderful win, on the way through to Cup glory later in the year.

SEN Track's Pat Welsh and Ian Healy caught up with our Sheila this morning...

Pat & Heals interview horse trainer Sheila Laxon nearing the 20th anniversary of her Queensland Oaks win with Ethereal. As our Queensland Legend of the Week Sheila talks about how she got into racing, her amazing Melbourne Cup win and her current training work at the Sunshine Coast

At the 2019 Magic Millions, John Symons purchased Without Thinking for just $60,000.

We have opportunities from his 2021 crop still available.

Take a look, listen to why John purchased them, and make an enquiry.

You too can be on top of the world, like the owners of Without Thinking this morning.....

Please take a look at the current list of Australian Thoroughbreds Horses we have available. We are always available to discuss up coming sales.

Another strong winning display by Without Thinking last night in the CALOUNDRA SHOPPING CENTRE QTIS THREE-YEAR-OLD BENCHMARK 65 HANDICAP 1600M at the Sunshine Coast, making it three wins in a row this campaign, after good victories at the Sunshine Coast and Ipswich. Ridden again by Michael Hellyer,....

Four horses racing at home, combined with Sheila’s birthday makes for a busy day and we hope that it all adds up to a big day of celebrations!

Sun ‘N’ Surf will most likely find the race too short, whilst Irish Ace has drawn the worst barrier which makes winning very difficult but she is in great condition.

Daintree Diva should go forward and run a good race, and the promising Without Thinking races in a tricky 1600m with a small field, and from an inside barrier will need the luck to come his way at the right time.

Good luck all, and Happy birthday to Sheila!!
