say no more 3,322 Report post Posted February 2, 2024 Liz has proposed the following competition and is sponsoring it with a $100 bet as the prize. Concept 1] From the recently completed Karaka yearling sales, pick FOUR horses that you think will make the 2 year old Karaka Millions field in 2025. 2] If they do, you get 10 points for each one that does. 3] It one of your picks runs 1st: 30 points, 2nd: 20 points, 3rd: 10 points, 4th: 5 points and 5th: 2 points (on top of the 10 points for making the field). Most points wins - first Prize $100 bet sponsored by Liz. Any tie for first will be split by: - most runners in the field; then - who had the winner; then - who had the runner-up; then - who had the 3rd place horse If the tie is still not broken then the prize will be split. If no one picks a horse to even make the field, the competition is null and void. Posting deadline - last day for posting selections is Friday 16 February Please post the Lot # and the Dam's name eg. Lot 10 Desert Star Lot 295 Parmalove ....... If a horse makes the field (ie. listed in the race field and included in the barrier draw) but is subsequently scratched, you will still earn 10 points for that horse.

I think you'd better start saving your $4 a week just in case on those two. Black Kirrama and Gruff 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked anything early then suffered a breathing disorder or heart arhthmia from memory before racing again successfully in Australia. Was it a result of environment or genetically pre disposed?
