At the last turn, Adam could feel Kenny get a bit uneasy, but it wasn't enough to worry the red stallion. So they kept pushing on, being second in lead felt wonderful and Adam thought, believed they were going to win, being neck and neck with the black stallion. Kenny was running his heart out, but as they reached the 200m fence, Kenny began to die down, the other horses rushing past and losing sight of the black stallion. Adam began to pull him up a bit earlier than the post and halted him as quickly as he could after the post. Kenny breathed heavily as Adam let him trot to cool down. Adam had a strange feeling about what just happened, as Kenny had never slowed down so quickly before.

Walking back to the mounting yard, adam relaxed his grip and let Kenny stretch out, head low. He dismounted once at the mounting yard and felt the stallion over, but he seemed fine, no heat or lumps, nothing. He was puzzled and handed him to Chris "I'm not sure what happened but he just died?" he said, confused still. "We'll see what he's like in the morning" Chris said in reply and went and hosed the stallion off. Chris looked back and smiled, Deadpool in the winners bay, the black beast did it.

Before;
Adam and Chris were sitting in the stable lounge, flipping through upcoming races, "no, no, no.... Wait!" Adam said, watching over Chris flick through the pages. "There look" Adam pointed down the page. "Melbourne Cup 2016, Flemington Racecourse, Sydney, Australia" "Well, that's quite perfect, he's raced in Australia before" Chris stated, as he circled the race. Adam smiled and went up to the computer, registering Kenny for the Melbourne Cup. "The Melbourne Cup is the biggest race of the year in Australia" Adam said, filling out the registration form online. Chris rang Alex up to work out the arrangement with flights and accommodation.

Alex agreed to it all and arranged all the flights and accommodation, calling plenty of people and ringing the boys back "Everything is all sorted, flights, accommodation for Kenny and yourselves." she said, a smile on her face. The boys were excited and started packing for the trip, making sure they had everything they needed. Kenny was worked to make sure he was fit and perfectly ready to travel.

Between leaving the stable and flying out, Kenny was boxed with extra padding to keep him from getting hurt in his stall. He was loaded onto the float, driven to the airport and quarantined. He was loaded onto the plane and flown out to Australia. After being quarantined for a few days, the boys went and picked Kenny up from the airport and made their way to Flemington racetrack. "I hate driving in this weird ass backwards country" Chris mumbled, flicking the wrong things in the hire car. Adam just laughed at him and kept reading through his Thoroughbred magazine.

They reached Flemington and slowly navigated their way around the track, not entirely sure where they were supposed to stable Kenny. Adam asked around and after a while they finally found the stable block they were stabling Kenny. Chris unloaded Kenny and walked the stallion around, letting him loosen his muscles up after being cramped up for days. As well as stretching Kenny's muscles, Chris also explored the track a little.

Now;
Today was the big day, and Kenny was pumped, as were both men. Chris gave Kenny a good soapy wash, brushing his mane and tail to a sheen, shining his hooves and scrubbing his whites till they are stainless. Adam was busy packing his jockey bag and getting ready at the hotel, going to and from getting ready and watching the races on the TV. Back at the stable, Adam wrapped Kenny's legs up with padded boots and tied up in his stall while he went and grabbed his racing gear from the trailer. Racing gear was packed into a small duffle bag. Chris put the bag over his shoulder and walked Kenny over to the track tie ups.

Kenny stood quietly under the shaded area, swatting flies away with his tail. He was pretty much asleep when he smelt a familiar horse. Kenny looked up only to see the black stallion, Deadpool. The pair weren't particularly the best of friends but they weren't sworn enemies. As the black stallion walked past, he had pinned his ears and kicked up his back feet in an attempt to kick out, Kenny only snorted and swiveled his ears back at Deadpool.

Race time was close by and Chris went over Kenny quickly with the brush, took his leg wraps, then, for the first time in a race, put the blinkers on Kenny, just to be extra safe as the field for The Melbourne Cup is usually quite large. Kenny shook his head up and down as Chris did up the blinkers. The iconic bright green bridle went on next and then the saddle. Chris placed his start number vest on and led Kenny out towards the mounting ring. Deadpool was only a horse in front of Kenny in the mounting ring. Kenny put his head down, and pulled on Chris a bit, Kenny was eager to get onto the track, he looked like copper in the sun, his coat gleamed. Adam was lifted onto Kenny and the two men chatted, Chris gave Adam a pat on the back before letting Kenny loose onto the track "Good luck" he said with a smile as he let Kenny go.
