They put 40mm of irrigation on over the weekend. I do note that there is wind forecast tomorrow and Thursday which would quickly dry the ground.

The 1947 Auckland Cup win was interesting Gubes. From A Noble Breed by William Mackie There was a senastional ending to the 1947 Auckland Cup. Howe, in a titanic battle with Balgowan and King's Ransom, went past the post with a nose from Balgowan with only a neck to King;s Ransom. But that was not the result which would go down in the history books of the 1947 Cup. In a great finish Howe bore out on Balgowan and King's Ransom soon after turning for home. And the three changed ground slowly so that by the time the finishing post had been reached they were near the outside fence. The stewards called an inquiry. And it was a long one too. Meanwhile Howe, who was previously regraded as a non-stayer, had his dividend posted, as two score for a win and double figures for a place. The inquiry dragged on. The large crowd waited patiently around the birdcage fence. And then the result was announcd -- but not before Magnaform had taken the very next race --- the placings had been altered. Balgowan, ridden by Wally Hooten, first; King's Ransom J Williamson) second; Howe relegayed to third. That victory was to add to a wonderful day for Hooten. A race or two before he had been successful on Tauloch, for the same owner as Balgowan, Mr Stanley Goosman, MP later to be Sir Stanley. As well Hooten kicked home Coonbridge in a division of the Nursey Handicap and gained second on Double Chance in the Queens Plate. Howe was to gain his revenge later at the meeting. Three days following ridden by L J Ellis he captured the Summer Cup from Signal Officer by a head. Then a day later it was King's Ransom's turn. He collected the Auckland Racing Club Handicap from Royal Tan (L J Ellis) indian Gold and Balgowan, who pulled hard in that event. King's Ransom was one of three winners for Williamson that day. The others were Sweet Nymph and Rose Marie, who was trained by A Seifert, the man who later in life went on to select the dual Cup winner Il Tempo. There was more to follow in the Balgowan saga. Mr J H Marshall, the owner of Howe, appealed against the relegation of his horse, first to the distriact committee and then to the appeal judges. Both appeals failed.

Thursday 12 December - Auckland Thoroughbred Racing at Ellerslie Race 3 STELLA ARTOIS MAIDEN 1200 SANTARELLI (W Pinn) - Co-trainer S Bergerson subsequently reported that the mare had been showing some signs of soreness when being loaded onto the horse transporter to return to their stable. SANTARELLI was then examined by the stable Veterinarian the following morning and confirmed to be lame in the right foreleg which was to be x-rayed and results advised to Stewards. W Pinn (SANTARELLI) - Following advice that the mare had pulled up sore following the race, after further consideration of the matter Stewards sought and were granted permission to withdraw the charge by the Adjudicator. Under the circumstances, W Pinn was advised that although Stewards were not proceeding with a charge on this occasion, he would be expected to ride his mounts out fully to the end of the race when circumstances permit.
