    • Tassie worse off then NZ. with the cost of everything these days ,  they have gone completely broke.  Long time ago since Boony and Punter Ponting carried the place in the cricket 😂. (33% of adult Tasmanians already live on a pension of one type or another)  I just did a small bit on Tassie horse in the BOAY harness section that was repping for NZ winning the Interdominion . Stanley Rio.  my dad went to NZ with Halwes (a Top Tassie horse like Stanley Rio ) in the 60's as the Farrier, which is how I come to be in NZ for some years. HALWES won his Interdominion heats at Alexandra Park in track record times but scratched from the final in a Bookie sting. HALWES won the Miracle Mile in Sydney 3 weeks later 😁.   anyway , back to Tassie and >  with losing $400,000,000 cost blowout on the 'Spirit of Tasmania 'ferries ( the Bass Strait ones between Tas and Vic)  the government has gone belly up and can't afford the New Stadium (would be near a billion?)  the current State Liberal gov  promised to build to before 2027 when Tas is supposed to enter the AFL competition. it's just total chaos with their budget now.   So last week they had a VOTE of NO CONFIDENCE in the leader !!!  the 'Aye's' won 15-14 , so now they are facing another election . Labor have swept the votes in the Federal Parliament Canberra in the recent national election. so  guess Labor will win easy Tasmania and take up the challenge of a completely broken (broke) place? .   whatta mess. 
    • Went gangbusters did The Colonel Good Product and Great Prices and Bobs Your Uncle
    • Not by a number of owners, trainers and punters that I've talked to.
    • Money well spent.....for June [ winter ] after a lot of rain that track on Saturday was OUTSTANDING ! Not just IMO but a view endorsed by Owners , trainers , punters , jockey managers , media folk , the Clerks of Course , employees and the shoe-shine man ! Not by George Simon .....live anyway.....he owned a repeat winner but was seen live at Belmont Stakes [USA] with Wheels , FRitchie and other Kiwis !
