berzerk 107 Report post Posted April 27, 2019 Just going through replays now. After a perfect weather week, this Te Rapa track still looks questionable, at best. A lot of kick-back, and some extraordinary beaten margins for a Dead 4 rated track hedley 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedley 1,900 Report post Posted April 28, 2019 Watch it cut right out on the MAY jumps day's card...a bit of rain in the lead-up and the clods will be flying Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wood 1,576 Report post Posted April 28, 2019 Still a bit of kickback yes, the wrong grade of sand was put on sometime ago. Dont blame the new curator, doing a good job along with the experienced staff there. Sadly it will take time, the rail will probably be shifted out with the prevailing forecast. Still one of the better winter tracks! Sadly Ellerslie didn’t go with the Strathayr surface, bypass time will start soon for the annual migration to Ruakaka! Should be Racing there every second Saturday especially with the fantastic tie ups. People go to Alexandra Park every Friday, habit I suppose, most casual racing fans wouldn’t know when they raced at Ellerslie apart from their premier days! Great track, great facilities, utilise the place! Baz (NZ), Aaron Bidlake, Black Kirrama and 2 others 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
