von Smallhaussen 3,226 Report post Posted August 19, 2010 Does anyone know how the horses have been allocated saddlecloth numbers for the Interprovincial at New Plymouth? It does not appear to be by weight, rating, barrier or alphabetically. example No. 7 McRae 53kg No. 11 Malachite 58Kg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdt 291 Report post Posted August 20, 2010 In my opinion this annual event is way past its use by date. Unless those responsible can get it back to what it was at its inception then I really dont see the point of such a race.

What, who, and how were they representing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Thistle 133 Report post Posted August 21, 2010 Great field, great stake, great race. True, however, that the provincial representation angle now involves more than a little bollocks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronjeremy 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2010 Sorry buts what the point. The colours are just no help what so ever. If you are going to change the colours why are they not in the actual province's colours. I took no joy from the race what so ever and can only imagine the poor race caller took no joy either Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
