Getting back to my thoughts on dual meetings,I didn't realise Manawatu race again on Tuesday,once again a gallop meeting at Hastings on Sunday,only 8 races,another opportunity to take harness to the provinces,to run 5 races on its own the CD area doesn't need to die,sure House has sent a good number north but surely 3 or 4 races even without don't seem to be that bigger problem,why are the powers that be so keen to kill it off?
