eljay 1,720 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Many tall tales & true were spun in the Tea Hut at Kumeu after the Sunday workouts over a hearty helping of Bacon & Eggs, which naturally were washed down by a glass or three of the amber juice.

After the Tea Hut some would then venture over to Tommy Knowles' place for a BBQ with fresh paua fritters and a few more beers. Then help him feed up.

His UDR over the last 10 years would be one of the worst and his horses always go better with a different driver. Put 10 a place on him tomorrow night Brodie and see what happens :-) Patiti 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gubellini 4,004 Report post Posted March 30, 2017 I think 65 year old Martin Denton may have made history in Race 7 at Forbury Park tonight with Och Aye The Noo. Although she only ran 6/8 Martin bred her, owns her, trains her, drove her, and to boot sponsored the race! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 69 and drive my v8 quite fast at times but do not have 12 other cars bumper to bumper around me. I know those ancient drivers are really great guys especially one in brown colours down south but honestly is the risk really worth it. A driver died at Hutt Park one night 5 minutes after leaving the track and he was only in his 60s. didnt realise those gophers come in v8s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
