Riverton Races early 80s.all kids got a cardboard ticket with only the race number printed on it.Before each race you got to pick a horse then go&get your card stamped.If your horse won,you then raced off to get your chocolate bar.............absolute GOLD in those days!!!!!
just so you know! I have nothing to grind with you!
sigh, I actually don't go to many meetings nowadays (once 150!) and almost never for any meeting when a drunken crowd turns up! all that out the window for this meeting!
Keen for noms to come out! as I have been to two of the important lead up meetings I actually have some horse who could be interested in betting on!!
The OP comment is based around, I have photos of a Large number of NZ riders. 80's onwards! at a guess? 95% of them! some have never ridden a winner! but I have never been at a meeting that he has ridden at!! Once, there as a Punter and he rode the G1 that day! the one day in a 1000 I never had a camera
