Yes, madam, you are correct!

In October 2005, she attended the Melbourne Cup Week in Australia, and one of the horse racing stakes was named after her: The Stevie Nicks Plate.

So fitting to have a horse race named after Chris.

A video from 2006 showing that he is very careful when he does bet. (yeah right!)

Woohoohoo....I just found out today that I will be a GUEST of another marquee in the Birdcage on Nov 8! I am hoping that lurking on a corner - McManus's corner - will 'spot' me THE man they have named the race after.

How exciting to see a race in Oz named after our man...

And then to get an invite to watch the race and Chris present the trophy to the winner. tongue.gif
