Eight races and all on the dirt Might not seem exciting at all But still there we were at Shatin Ready to have a ball
After all this was Happy Wednesday A time to rock and roll But Shatin’s not Happy Valley and so we went for a little stroll We held back that usual Happy Wednesday energy And wanted to get on a winning roll
We backed Perfect Joy in race 1 And it streaked home for Tye Chris So is no so so trainer, boys After all Caspar was, er, his sire Altogether now! Chris So is no so so trainer After all, Caspar was his sire!
Invictus just couldn’t lose That’s what all the experts said But Winning Apex had other ideas And turned race two on its head Everything we won we lost We were no longer ahead
Zac was back to win race three And expedited things It was a welcome winner for Paul O’Sullivan Dhere’s The Love was a bloody fickle thing Yeah, just like in real life Dehere’s The Love was a really miserable thing
Then like our beer bellies stomachs It all went bloody South This was when Danesouth won race 4 A horse we’d never heard about It ran like it hadn’t run before Not in a very long time It ran like it hadn’t run before And so we drank more wine
Now everybody sing! There went the Triple Trio It went south for everyone No one hit pay dirt Even The Three Amigos sounded glum
Maroon Prince got all stirred up And this favorite in race 5 came bloody last Loads Of Joy won for Gerard Mosse It gave nothing else a chance Oui oui, mes amis Loads Of Joy made us Les Miserables By giving nothing else a chance
“You don’t need form to win tonight” Said Flinders who was spot on Still Ollie Doleuze got a favorite home When Turin Pearl led and won Maybe our luck had turned? When, oui, oui, another Frenchman won
Green Zone won for Sam The Tailor And Manu was a happy chapatti But we backed favorite Bundle Of Joy Which ran like a bad curry from Karachi Bundle Of Joy made us rush to the loo Like after a bad curry from Karachi
In the last Bobo Dragon was at “voluptuous” odds Said “Lucky” Davis to Clint We all gagged when hearing the word Brett Davis was becoming unhinged “Voluptuous odds?” we asked ourselves Amigo Brett was becoming unhinged
Flinders said he’d do Brett’s washing If the Six Up Bonus was won Alas this was not to be When Bobo ran like Wo Wo No Flinders didn’t have to do no washing When Bobo ran like Wo Wo
And so we’ll wait for next Happy Wednesday It wasn’t a very happy Shatin Next week we’ll be at Happy Valley And where they’ll hopefully shit in All together now! Next week we’ll be at Happy Valley And where they’ll hopefully shit in!
