  1. Understand your comments on ratings Uncle re 4yos but off the top of my head I don't recall that many 4yo winners of the race over the past 30 years.
  2. Te Rapa today 42mms last 24 hours and a soft 7 so seems comparable
  3. Twilight meetings have minimum stakes of $25k Timaru is not a twilight meeting. The same has applied the last two years.
  4. TOMAHAWK (G Rooke) - Began awkwardly, losing ground. Checked near the 250 metres when CRIXUS (F Moerman shifted inwards. G Rooke was questioned into his apparent lack of vigour over the final 150 metres. G Rooke advised that after getting checked the gelding felt indifferent in its action and he was unable to ride his mount out fully to the finish. A post-race veterinary examination revealed the gelding to have suffered superficial leg abrasions.
  5. I hope you are right if we can overcome the tricky draw Rev.
  6. 1985 Magnitude won the Epsom the same day as Lacka Reason won the Turnbull Stakes
  7. La Dorada R1 at Te Rapa ........unbelievable Imported three-year-old having first run in this area for the Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson stable. Finished 11th over 1200m in the G3 Scarborough Stakes at Moonee Valley at her last appearance 11 weeks ago
  8. The initial soft 5 reading would have been done around 6am. It was a scorcher at Te Aroha with 29 degrees during the day. An upgrade on track later in the day was inevitable.
  9. The Guerin Report at 8pm tonight will be interesting. May well throw some light on what could happen.
  10. The winner did not claim. Carried 59kgs.
  11. They have a Mayor who doesn't even live in Tauranga....Mahi Drysdale
  12. The sudden burst of water on the track was at Tauranga Maxy.
  13. Might be few stepping out at the Avondale trials on Friday.
  14. I have a pristine boxed copy of Notable New Zealand Thoroughbreds No. 487
  15. Gaulus won the 1897 Melbourne Cup, with his full brother The Grafter finishing second in a memorable family quinella. The Grafter returned the next year to win the 1898 Melbourne Cup, following in his brother's footsteps. Both horses were bred by John R. Smith at Tucka Tucka Stud and were raced and trained by William Forrester at Warwick Farm. The horses were sired by Gozo out of the dam Industry. .
