They can't afford to help Woodville whilst having to fix Hastings and Awapuni and decide what to do with Trentham when it inevitably falls over.

Stratford track surface looks amazing. All the facilities look as though a race meeting could be run at short notice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously hasn't happened yet. Perhaps they could have diverted the extra $500k they unnecessarily put into the NZ Oaks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next week's CD fixtures:- Monday- Awapuni jumpouts Tuesday - Levin jumpouts Wednesday - Waipukurau jumpouts Friday - Hawera races Saturday - Wanganui races Either the horse numbers are such that there is a real need, or this is overkill. The horse ambulance driver is going to be on overtime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
