Chief Stipe Posted April 10 Author Posted April 10 The only good reason would be if there is a plan to renovate the Riccarton Track. A bit arrogant on NZB's part to schedule the sale to interfere with the best racing carnival in NZ - Cup Week in Canterbury. 2 Quote

Doesn't NZ Racing end somewhere around Taupo? And they will be doing their damndest to get the Guineas north. That part I find hard to argue with however. 1 Quote
