He would indeed. the 15 'metres' might be enough though. Especially with the Ascent Slot race horse needing a run. Paramount Kiwi hasn't started for a while, will need a good hit out before going to the Addington Ascent . can't bet on David Butcher though mate. too old 😂 Pantani only showing $2.10 in race 6 Sportsbet as well. Whale can load up on that lol . I tell ya what though. There is a absolute Special in the 2 year old trot. Race 9. I Love Small fields as so many less trying to beat you, and you shouldn't get held up either 😂. and that Majestic Son trotter number 3 , trots like a stag (28 sec last quarter last time too , and won with authority. A very nice solid trotter ) so i've got $100 win on YA EEJIT YA (WTF with the name? 🙄) at $2.40 on Sportsbet. only bet tonight to get some cash for Derby Day tomorrow. Home and hosed.

Thought you guys were trying to Tip SO NAIVE for a minute there so put $10 bucks on it lol. Finished 4th in the Sarten. Was going to back Chiefy's ''Captured By Love , but odds were way too short. Had every chance in the run too but only 3rd. Maybe you can excuse my Naiveness, and answer me this 🙄 . Why does she have a BARRIER BLANKET ? What good does that do ? Can never work it out . is it to make them feel like they're at home with a rug on or something to relax ? (at a guess)

The Great championship of harness racing is to be re-invented. Go you Good Thing The Iconic race of Nz-Aus rivalry that is synonymous with Harness racing has faded 😢 in recent times , for one reason or another. NZ runners hasn't even Turned up past 3 years of the Pacing series that were run. Majestic Man (2nd) and Bolt For Brilliance have proudly represented for Nz , contested the Trot for their great NZ trainers. So they are Doubling the prize-money to a $1,000,000 Grand Final , they took my advice and dropped it to 2 Heats instead of the traditional 3. (At The speeds they go now , nearly all horses would be flattened by 3 heats in a week these days.) Brisbane is taking it on at Albion Park for the next 3 JULY's Running ! (Must be running it in place of the Black's A Fake QLD Championship). So there will be 2 Interdominion Championships next 8 months. NSW are hosting in December soon the 2024 Championship. Looking forward to some Fine Winter QLD racing now. (Yulestar NZ, Village Kid, Jack Morris, Leap To Fame have all won Brisbane Interdominions ) 'Stanley Rio' for NZ just prior to them as well.

The Galah was nearly gunna run the Trifecta for a moment . A great swoop at victory. But the Horseman's runner for Tim Williams emerged late to take the race victory SYBKa Lane. Blackie had the Blair Orange drive loop the field and nearly steal the race and gets 6 points. 🤕 The Galah left to mop up the placings 2nd, 3rd and 4th to get a 12 point Haul in the last. Was it enough ?
-

Mikey from the GOOD DRAW Slot has a Radioactive Jaffa and a Ruby up his sleeve to try and get past Blackies Orange Butt in the last race. Mr Butt a no-show, but Mr Orange is in there ok. Blackie will driving 'Tower of Love' with care and precision to try and hang on. Chief has Georgie Zukov to try and get in first. Looks like he is safe from getting any Boys Get paid socks . 😂😎 There is one Big Bird in contention who could Swoop Like an Eagle !!!!!! The Galah The Galah has assembled Rubys A Delight, Tower Of Love, Beaudine Quick Step, Gotta Elect Bill and My Friend Louis , for a no holds barred, all out 5 pronged assault on race 12. Will Blackie crash and burn with this last ditch feathery flurry ??

Miracles can happen Brodie, but probably not here 😉.

Merlin gets him again. wonder why Blair on DSD didn't try and steady when got the lead ? ran along flat out instead. Merlin sure is a show of beating Leap To Fame (and DSD too with a sit)as for the rest? No Chance? . miles back.
-
The time honoured Group 2 Ashburton Flying Stakes is next. No doubt Grant Dixon will be watching from Oz somewhere , to see how Leap To Fame's opponents will go in readiness for the NZ Cup soon. They will run some time I reckon. Who will get left at the start ? could be a little messy . DON't STOP DREAMING the big one for the BOAY Slot holders. He is the most popular of the day and is Ranga's, Chief's, The Galah's, and Blackie's Slot's. or will Merlin roll him today ? for Tabman. Ranga has both horses, so he won't mind lol 😎💰

Gammalite replied to Trojan's topic in Galloping Chat
with the gallops off you Gallops folk should watch the Ashburton trots this afternoon. The 2 BEST horses in the country are going head to head . Merlin and Don't Stop Dreaming. In a few minutes Empire City is in the Hambletonian Trot as these young Trotters prepare for a 1/2 million dollar Slot race on Showday soon. Against an Aussie undefeated wonderhorse. (ironically Empire City pulled a shoe in the running and galloped at her last start at $1.10 odds 😁) in a listed races. She should make up for it today ) a really nice trotting filly. -
Next race is race 8 The Hambletonian trot for 3 year olds. Will any of these young Trotters be able to cope with Aussie KEAYANG ZAHARA next month in the slot races the ASCENT at Addington ?. I think she will do them like a dinner 🧁🥧 . she Beat up the Boys in the Victoria Trotters Derby yesterday on her ear, to go 11 from 11 and has the $1/2 million ASCENT at her mercy now.
