My wife will celebrate her 50th birthday on July2

This saturday, I am hosting a surprise 50th birthday party for Everett to be arranged by my daughter clandestinely while we are both away. Her birthday is on Sunday , july 2. I will be going with her to TAcloban city on Wednesday afternoon and will be back in Manila on SAturday, July 1st..
I am thinking of hosting the celebration at the Shangrila West Restaurant and all the invitation would be on a personal basis...
She doesn't want to do this party and says what we should do is just a quiet family dinner. But 50 is 50 and it comes only once in a lifetime so what the heck...

Anyway, Kodi will join the celebration because he will be six years old at exactly 12:59 am on July 3..
LIRAO was 3rd and MISS VICTORY placed 2nd

LIRAO seems to be having a bit of a problem as a two year old... We dont know her preference if she wishes to be a stayer or a sprinter. Jockey RC TAnagon followed our instructions but the horse overheated...Try again next time.

MISS VICTORY is slowly taking her lessons well earning her keep by placing 2nd in her first run in the Maiden A race.. She's off to a very good start...
MR VICTORY wins convincingly in tune-up race

Arriving at the finish about 3 to 4 lengths ahead, MR VICTORY easily won his Class 4-1a race Saturday morning...He was timed 1:28' with quarter times of 13 24 25 26'besting three seasoned gallopers who challenged him from start to finish. At the start, she was hounded by MAXIMUM EXPOSURE... and then at the far turn, ANGIE GRAY went beside him and later CASANOVA flew into second position but to no avail...
It was a good run with Jockey Jeff Zarate showing the whip to the horse about 75 meters before the finish line..
He will be primed for the third leg but has to tune up for the 2,050 meter distance....
