Is it time for a change of the clowns in the circus? Haven't heard from Spicer for a while - does that mean he is on a full time expenses paid holiday or doing everything behind closed and locked doors?

Ants - well done Line Up.

Greg Sugars now listed

Of course that race was a feature race

I don't think removing your product from areas will help - nobody in Hawkes Bay or Wellington now interested in harness and they are the people who are needed to further the future interest in the sport through their own interest and their offspring. whether by training or driving or just through the TAB. I think square one is to get all codes, especially the equine ones to work together not against each other - latest examples are both Tauranga & Te Aroha where in both areas the T'bred people have become very anti to harness. They don't get great fields themselves so surely a trial of dual code meetings would help them as much as keeping harness in those regions.

Yeah - hard to really get a line on it but I suppose that was not too bad for Forbury back then

What was the stake?

Like I said (inferred) those on a lower rating would cost owners proportionally less - like training, transport, farrier, and esp vets

and how to reduce costs to owners so that lower stakes are more attractive! Oh shit, that pink porker with wings just passed over.

Thanks hsvman _ laws get changed a lot these days. So be fun if every owner had colours

How come they weren't charged 2 colour fees?

Should have been where originally intended until 3 months ago someone decided the track was unsuitable for racing. The same track where a week or so ago there was a galloping meeting.

When is summer - I thought hard tracks were for summer? Slippery moist hard tracks with aluminium shoes - well we all know what happens.
