tasman man 11 979 Report post Posted October 7, 2019 Hard to ignore r1 at Timaru on Sunday . Top Amateur driver Sheryl Wigg once again showed her skill by dominating this race on Delight Of Texas. From a second line drawer she settled mid field ,moved up mid race and spanked the rest by a mere 11 lengths. The horses form was ordinary but Sheryl showed she can be backed with confidence......a master class ! And she doing well with the training as well ! Another 'lady' to be watched in harness is Arna Donnelly who turns her horses out so well. Meanwhile at the gallops Catherine Cameron establishing herself as a fine horsewoman/trainer. She of course was a successful Monte rider at trots ! JJ Flash 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim vince 985 Report post Posted October 8, 2019 I've told her to get her juniors Gary.with the old human rights act age wouldn't be a barrier especially as Auckland has dogged up on amateur races and Cambridge seem to have fewer and fewer. Though with a new change at th he top the new candidates have offered their support to get them back.vote Bob Macaulay Scott plant and len oughton all passionate trotting people and know th he grass roots.bob would be a great president. yorky 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikie 326 Report post Posted October 9, 2019 Michael House would bring a lot of enthusiasm to the role, but living in Christchurch would make it hard to attend committee meetings Beef Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim vince 985 Report post Posted October 18, 2019 Stop it Gary shell think she is John Campbell.the good thing is the sport has a place for amateurs.the pros would make a mess of her. We need to cater for all levels of ability horse driver owner.its not all about the champs.mind you we should celebrate our champs Dexter Oscar bonavena etc they will bring people to track.

tasman man 11 979 Report post Posted October 25, 2019 Another day......another win ! Punters onto the lass tonight even from bad draw. Got into running line ,moved up to take 'bad luck' out of creation. Controlled the pace for most of last lap outside leader and had enough in tank to hold on. Perfect ! Meanwhile Tim called in the replacements to get his horses onto the track at Alex Park , with the correct gear and numbers ,tho the suits were watching him closely !
