Best of luck, folks.

Yes indeed . . . Trackside coverage of Karaka Millions meet was 1st class. Kudos to all involved.

Absolutely correct. What lunatic decided that the winning margin should be a consideration in a judicial decision. Obviously it's the degree of severity of the "bash" that should be the sole determining factor. Once you've received the "bash" to the degree that Ninja was bashed, obviously all momentum and interest is lost. I made plenty off the winner Torque To Be Sure, but I'm the first to admit the backers of Ninja were just plain robbed !

Thanks for the prize bet, Scooby. Please can I have :- Pukekohe R9 # 13 Livid Sky $35 each-way Thanks again.

Thanks for the game, Pete & Richie ...you did a great job making the Grand Final. Well done, Chicknsmack, you were a great team-mate, and pulled out another top score today when it mattered most. I'll be sure to ask for you next time ! I really enjoyed this comp...played by all participants in a great spirit. Thank you very much John and Scooby. Magnificent Saturday afternoon racing entertainment superbly organized and run. Thank you.

Well that was a miserable start for me ! My only single selection . . . and one of my two BBs as well . . . late scratched ! Ouch

You've done great, buddy. Thank you for a wonderful comp, John and Scooby. I'll miss this comp when it's over. It's been great fun. Thank you.

Thanks for a close match, Al and Pondy. Fortune favoured Chicknsmack and me today, and we're grateful for that. So it's on to the Grand Final, where we face the toughest of opponents, Pete and Richie. Will be a great match. Thanks again, John & Scooby.
