Thanks Gamma....I'm just a lucky person !

Had it been a test of skill I would be in the hunt as usually provide stiff opposition for any 'average talents'. !!!!!!!! Modest too !

Certainly enjoyed watching the big races last night...our syndicate had a Hunter Cup runner back in the day , and had a Group 3 winner at both Melton and Menangle in more recent times so familiar with the tracks !

Yes , that is so great having some Luck in Life. You are surely nearly the luckiest around . (By getting to enjoy both the terrific worlds of racing and Harness racing along the way , with the amazing animals and the thrills they give along the way.

In fact ALL the posters on here and racing NZ and Oz forums are in the top 1 % > of the Top 1 % of All People on the planet, as they not only get to enjoy the racing, but Enjoy Life in 2 of the Top 10 'Ranked' countries for quality of Life,  in the World. NZ is Number one holiday destination for some , but a great place to retire as well. 

Hey TABman >> With some success in the racing with some Group 3's there , and probably some nice gallopers , you might be in the top 1% of the 1% of the 1% 🤣🤣 (probably a Sir Edmund Hilary relative or something ? high up the mountain lol 😂.

I missed out having or driving a Group horse at all alas, battling in the back-blocks, but feel lucky still with being a part of the great sport for quite some time , and wishing it well and even in it's (harness racing) twilight years still can see and enjoy a few things.  but I do get AFL as national sport which is a bit better than rugby lol 🏆😉 Brissy won too 🦁

NZ and Aus citizens the luckiest on the planet if they just sat back with a beer and pondered on it, especially those enjoying the racing ,  or bothering to post on the forums to encourage the sport in their own way , whether it be a bet or just some thoughts / or memories (as that is part of heritage) and even some involvement going forward.

mmmm . now I wonder if Chief will buy me a yearling at the sales so I can get Group 3 status ? 👍💰🏇😁    think I need some black print in my twilight years 💰🤣
