It's that time of year and Chief Stipe has had his annual Christmas party . A good time was had by All. Chief even decided to have some fun with the trotting Lads and put up $10,000 stake for a fun contest for the trotting Lads , saying they just had to hitch up a horse , race over the hill and come back with 100 of one type of Fruit. The four competitive trotting Lads Immeadiately explode into action. The Galah , Ranga and Gamma have harnessed up some quick ones and are over the hill in record time. The Brodster is a bit slower away but Chief helps him get the bridle on and off Brodie goes too, up and over the hill and in search of some fruit. Less than half hour and the boys have thundered back over the hill driving hard, and Gamma is back with 100 apples, The Galah zoomed in with 100 Grapefruit and Ranga is back with 100 juicy peaches. Chief then decides he'll sort this lot out by introducing his late 'Self Amusement Clause' of , "I forgot to mention , you had to EAT all the fruit in an hour to be the Winner" . oh dear , that's a bit of a tough one for the lads. but The Galah , Ranga and Gamma start munching away as fast as possible . Chief chuckles mercilessly and enjoys watching the struggle ,. Chief ducks off to get another beer , and when he returns Galah Gamma and Ranga are laughing joyfully , and have poured a beer for themselves, and have given up the EATing challenge after only getting through about half the fruit. Chief says "WTF, don't you want to win the 10 Grand ?" "Nah Chief "is the reply . "We've just seen the Brodster, and we want to see how he gets on. He's just coming down the hill now with a trailer on with 100 Watermelons " 🤣 -

Seeing as it is a racing chat forum Here's a pretty tame topic for some of the many watchers to maybe have a post. Only rule, no sniping at other's selections Titicaca 13/3.90 Good value, made up a huge amount of ground in the Metropolitan (2600m), then failed in the NZ Cup, I presume due to the heavy track. Surprising as he is by Tarzino Adrian Bull is a renowned trainer of stayers and Kelly Myers gets the ride. Nereus and Ghazzah to also run well -
Reading HRNZ site 28 Southland horses in Ashburton tomorrow, tell me it had no effect on yesterday cup day and I won't believe ya. -

California racing just got dealt another brutal blow. In a year when this sport should be doing everything possible to stabilize a fragile circuit, the loss of Grade I status for the Frank E. Kilroe Mile and multiple downgrades at Santa Anita and Del Mar is very concerning. When you strip premier events in the middle of a wagering and field-size crisis, you're not “protecting the integrity of the pattern,” you're accelerating the decline of one of the game's few remaining flagship jurisdictions. This outcome might look neat on a spreadsheet, but on the ground in California it means fewer top-class opportunities, weaker cards, and less incentive for owners to keep investing in this circuit. Hard to talk about “national balance” when Kentucky adds a Grade I turf sprint and fresh upgrades at Churchill and Kentucky Downs, while California absorbs a net loss in graded quality. At a time when the industry says it wants West Coast stability, this grading slate feels like the exact opposite of leadership.
