That's true

Introduce pacemakers, drawn one, same as athletics then?

Did you feel lonely?

Sprinter of many years ago comes to mind Nunui could not be ridden in trackwork.

Agreed, rain for monday tho, could be some form reversals for those backing up.

As you say plenty of races up your way at present, why incur float fees. Invergiggle should close, Riverton stay I say, or better still Invers race at Riverton

Would not need one the size of the original for sure, but clearly needed for winter racing.

Can race times really be counted. 1.20 for 1400 is sure flying. Today at Riccarton the horse live drama ran1.07.76 winning the 1200 1st race. I do think 1.08.89 is fast at Ellerslie, so begs a question is 1.20 fast at the gold coast?

wet last week, forecast not good, could be swimming races?

Jeez do people still buy the herald? Amazing!

Provided a good surface to race on yesterday? thoughts anyone

If the horse is as good as Rita, what chance?

The track was chipping out on top, to me this means a hard surface underneath, and no real grass root structure, or water table to low to begin with.

Still such a thing as irrigation?, am sure the 1st race could be for the babies with a starting track at dead4? or was the 2yo race at the last meeting just to tough on a good2-3?

I should imagine the club will be lucky to get 1000 people on course saturday. This is a disgrace, the height of summer, poor fields, and clubs wondering why they cannot attract punters to a race track. CJC are they still the wankers of 50 years ago?
