      Manawatu

      By Gammalite · Posted

      Nice drive by Harrison to win the Manawatu Cup today. was hoping Wilson could pull it off, But Harrison drove the local horse Lord Delmar an absolute treat and beat the hot fav from Waterlea.  a thrill for the locals there !!  Peter Ferguson did win the first race ok. But the juniors of Harrison Orange , Wilson House and Crystal Hackett cleaned up the rest of the entire Racecard. I'm a big Fan of the young drivers getting a go , and those 3 are proving the point over past year lol 👍.

      Ashburton Track?

      By Doomed · Posted

      When the harness raced at Ashburton it was the old track, much bigger. Similar size to Riccarton I think. I saw hands Down win there one day early in his career. Well, saw the last 100 metres anyhow. The track was covered in fog. I suspect it was remodelled to the smaller circuit some time mid 80s.

      That's because unfortunately envy winds its way through all parts of the industry.  New Zealanders are quicker to cut the tall poppy down than applaud their success.

      No you have an opinion and that's OK.   I've recently had the good fortune to be close to someone who has owned their first horse with Te Akau.  They have been very very lucky winning a number of Group races as well as a Group 1.  I've been privy to all the communications between Te Akau and that person.  I've been impressed. I've seen the contract and indeed have explained to that person what the small print means.   I've also had the experience of meeting past syndicate owners from other horses who have the pip with Te Akau for reasons that I can only put down to unrealistic expectations and denial about what they signed up to.
