Cheers for that. 

I recall in my youth going to most race days, both gallops and trots at Ascot. In my early high school days, I had a holiday job painting the running rail closely supervised by the then track manager Mr Dalton (I think he was Jo-Anne's grandfather).

Mike used to ride a lot for the Ellis stable if my memory is in working order.

In later high school years, I used to cut cocks on the chain at Makarewa……..naturally I loved the runs of ewe lambs.

I still recall being asked to go and get a left hand knife for the supervisor during my first week. The roar of laughter from the boys on the chain when I returned was heartfelt.
