Looking to see if she was going to get another left hander on the flank. -
Well unfortunately with the Cambridge Slot race thread , we can see there no fans of Slot racing at BOAY. even with some of the Best horses on the planet attending like past winners Copy That , Just Believe, Leap To Fame and potentially Keayang Zahara this year . Such a treat for All to see. The arguement being it's for Rich Folk, or a Poor betting race or a waste of money . Just wanted to help you harness race loving BOAY folk with development of the sport, and inform that in about an hour , in VICTORIA country, 300kms from Melbourne at Birchip . they are running the first ever Victorian harness racing Slot race. (The last race at Birchip today race 7) . Victoria has more people than NZ and about the same size harness racing participation. Stakemoney is very low these days with lots of participants and little betting revenue. The BIRCHIP slot race involves 10 slots worth $10k each for 2 year minimum (so 20k for each Slot.) to allow the chance of a battler actually earning a BIG race Win. Plenty of local companies have bought slots and they are having a great day out , and the prize of the race is $125 k total . $65,000 for the winner, $25,000 for 2nd etc. Local horses from any Victorian stable as from December 1 , can go in . The favourite today is number One . a Horse with just 6 starts and 2 wins and $7000 earnings to date. No Mega Star by any stretch of the imagination. most of the runners are career earnings average of about 70k lifetime and are all battlers . I think they'll beat the number one , just with being more experienced. but you never know. Someone will win $65,000 today in just one hit in an hours time 👍💰 . There you go ! . Some real grass roots participants enjoying a Slot race and getting a quid !! 💰 No . Victoria will not call it off because they have to put up $25,000 of the purse. and BOAY would cry 'waste of money' ( actually there's a sponsor helping out as well with that) But wow . !!! how good . horses and people we never heard of EMBRACING the excellent Slot race Concept to help a struggling Industry with a 'User Pays Concept'. excellent stuff. I'm glad to see Someone enjoying their harness slots operating in the true Community manner . congratulations BIRCHIP with the 'Running of the Bulls' More progress for the sport like NZ has done , with the Velocity and Ascent and TAB trot and Betcha race. ( unless you think it's a 'disgrace' and waste of money' that is ,lol 😉) -

Well done. But where was she looking? -
I have a screenshot that shows she's at least 3l from the colour change when she's on her way into the rail -
You mean like Craig Williams did in the Railway after she veered inwards from the left-handed strike?
