I thought it might be a good idea to have a Racecafe Quiz. I thought I would relate it to South Island Racing, just to test people's knowledge of Southern Racing before it closes down for good.
Ten quick, really easy questions. See who is first to get them all correct.
1. Name the South Island's premier group race for 2yos.
2. Name the SI's major 2yo race over 1,400m.
3. Name the SI's feature race for 2yo fillies.
4. Name the feature 2yo race on either Dunedin Gold Cup day or Invercargill Cup day.
5. Name the SI's premier black type race open to all 3yos over 1,200m
6. Name the SI's premier black type race open to all 3yos over 2,000m or further.
7. Name the feature jumps race at Riccarton outside of Grand National Week.
8. Name the feature WFA race open to both sexes in Canterbury.
9. Timaru has 7 or 8 meetings a year, including the $50,000 Timaru Cup, list the total number of Saturday meetings at Timaru and the total number of feature meetings at Timaru with the $22,500 minimum
10. Three of the greatest horses to come out of the SI are Phar Lap. Grey Way and Showgate. List all of the feature races named after those three champions in the SI.
Hopefully this isn't too hard for those with a working knowledge of the SI. All current too, no historical questions. See how long it takes everyone.
