    • Stella Frost promoted at Addington 1971 after the WA champ trainer/driver Phil Coulson won the Grand Final but had a positive for Caffiene later , so Phil got 7 years DQ instead of a Grand Final Win. Stella Frost had won all her 3 heats for Doody Townley , and started off 24yards , so still deserved the win anyway .   ImTheMightyQuinn promoted at Auckland 2011 ( Interdominion was supposed to be run at Addington , but there was damage from the horrid earthquake they had that year)  Smokin Up with Lance Justice returning a positive.   and 2021 Boncel Benjamin , nearly the rank outsider of the field with his junior driver and mug 'learner trainer' Grimson stole the race after Expensive Ego wandered around like a Sea-sick sailor to stop Benjamin getting past him up the Menangle straight 🤣. That 2021 Interdom Grand final had Luke McCarthy with a strong hand . Training Expensive Ego and also these 3 stars > He steered the fav 'King of Swing' into 5th, 'Alta Orlando' ran 3rd for his Nz owners( which include John and Robert Dunn ) and 'Spirit of St Louis' ran 8th for his whole swag of Kiwi and Aussie owners.  This year next month (heats are in 2 weeks time)  Luke will try and defend the Title of Interdominion Champion he DID win last year with DON HUGO at Menangle. and for his NZ owners he has BEACH BALL to try and win something with too.  Leap To Fame will Thwart that attempt , as will be Albion Park Grand Final this year, but good luck running 2nd Luke !! 😎  Ranga NOT running 2nd at BOAY yet anyway  🏆 6 Points for your correct 6 horses today Ranga.  nice work . on the money 😉

    • yeah I remember when Grimson picked up 'Cya Art' on Cup day 2 years ago when Swayzee won the Cup for him the first time.  the horse hasn't really fired BIG-time for anyone, but a 2nd to Larry last night a handy effort.   as for Maheer Lord , I couldn't think of ever hearing of it , but upon looking him up , he did win the 3 yearold Sires Stakes Group 1 on Cup day one year ( with ELSU,  a future Interdominion winner was 5th)  but Maheer Lord never won another Group race after.  Speaking of Jason Grimson , he's gone a bit quieter lately. Still had some MID-Class horses at Menangle going ok last night though. ( 2 of his (Grimson) ex-horses 'Burnt out shell horses of Queenslanders ' went around at Redcliffe in the back blocks on Friday night . Big- time Group performers 'Frankie Ferocious' and 'Hot and Treacherous' . Finished at the back of a country race field , not worth a cold Pie now. (another Stunning work of creation by Grimson. I nearly cried 😢 )     For the Comp I'd ask the question Who Did Jason Grimson win the Interdominion with in Recent years ?   but nobody would know the answer 😪 .  they never won another race after 🙄 He (Grimson)  won the GF  twice . But no NZers turned up so was very poor Interdominions  and nobody will remember his 2 Winners at all so is nearly folly asking . One was a ex-pat NZ horse though.  so How about this one then. for a Sunday Session.  1/ Name any horse that Won the Interdominion Pacing Grand Final on protest or Promotion ?  2/ Name the relegated/ disqualified Party ?    Anyone knowing any of them Welcome to Reply , pop your answer here !! have a go
    • Never traveling beyond a mile before June 21, Mo Plex handled his first two-turn test with aplomb in the $500,000 Ohio Derby (G3) at Thistledown. View the full article
