So I went a long to Hawera today. A couple of points.
Jay Abernethy seems like a top bloke.
There didn’t seem to be anywhere to bet in the public area, not that there was a huge crowd. There also wasn’t anything saying you could go into the members to place bets if that was the case.
Boy oh boy was the 30 mins between racing boring, might have felt longer than usual as the day wasn’t particularly nice and the public facilities look like a bomb has hit them.
Who holds the track records for the wingatui course these day, remember the good ole days, when clubs always published them in race books, know one seems to care these days.
Heck, looks like ya needed a road block outside the gates, with a de tour via the car park, certainly looks grim,thought a colleagues charge would finally break maidens, next time maybe, that over due, she'll be mildew.
