Brodie Posted Saturday at 06:54 AM Share Posted Saturday at 06:54 AM Talk about horses coming home in 26.2 final 400metres off the front at Alexandra Park last night!! I looked at the final 800m and finsl 200metres at both Addington and Alexandra Park and those times are amazing in msny of the races compared to say even last year! They are coming home last half in 54 seconds and final 400m in 26 and change! Does anyone know what the quickest last half and quarters in NZ ever recorded? Just unbelievable how quick some go now and dont get any money. What have they chucked on these tracks to have them now being so fast??L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted Saturday at 07:00 AM Share Posted Saturday at 07:00 AM Think the horses are getting more refined like a thoroughbred young Brods, light carts, drivers more inclined to let horses run rather than sit up, and as you say, tracks are so much better 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mile racing is not what Harness needs if it wants to progress! Nothing good at all about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
