Nelly’s new boyfriend?

It seems that Black Caviar, newly returned home to Australia, has something of a crush on the beautiful dapple grey Voila Ici

“She’s fallen for another European. I don’t know how that works. He seems to keep her happy, so as long as that happens, we’re all right. As long as we don’t leave the doors open and they get romantic, we’re OK.” says assistant trainer Tony Haydon

Viola Ici, who recently joined the Moody stable, is just one of the trainer’s flotilla of promising colts looking to take this year’s Melbourne Cup

Nice taste, girl ;)
