This week the Main NZ chances preparing for the Interdominion see BET N WIN  (trotting R7 ) and  PINSEEKER (R1) at Menangle this Saturday night. 

Meanwhile at Albion Park where the Interdominion will be run and won. Oscar Bonavena (R4 trot) and BEACH BALL (R2) are getting their sighters on the track a bit better.

BEACH BALL will be 'Deflated' in a Big way by the champ LEAP TO FAME who has drawn 2 off the front. let's hope the great horse doesn't take 'All the air out of him'.  Leap To Fame should of been removed from the betting for this race.

Speaking of Beach Ball, here's Todays  Interdominion BOAY Comp Question 

 

1/ Who are these 2 fine Gentlemen ? 

2/ With what horses did they Win the Interdominion with ?

two of the finest horseman ever .Todd and Luke.  Used to compete against their dad back in the day. John McCarthy (the Butcher from Bathurst , we called him when he arrived QLD to live) 😁 sounds like a wrestling star lol. 

Yes . Todd (on the left ) is near the finest driver in the world now in the States. A little behind Dexter.  He joined the 3rd brother Andrew over there USA a little while back after winning the Interdominion on a former top NZ horse. Andrew McCarthy a world class horseman too, and drove heat winners of the Interdominion 20 years ago or so.

**Those 3 McCarthy brothers  the Oz equal of NZ's  Barry, Mark and Owen Purdon. 3 of NZ's best drivers ever. 

2 Points for TABman in the Comp.

But . What horses did they Win the Interdominion with ? clue =  One will be defending his title shortly 🤣😎

anyone is welcome to answer .

I'll beat you with Obviousness Ranga.  you are correct with their sire line. 

Not just All three by the champ sire 'Bettors Delight' but are All Stallions themselves 😎.

but also some more in common 

Also All Three Won the Interdominion  Lazarus 2017, Tiger Tara 2018, Leap To Fame 2023.  

All Three have won the Hunter Cup (Our biggest staying race and equal of the NZ Cup ) Laz 2018, Tiger, 2019, and Larry (Leap To Fame) in 2024

All three Hold a Title of Australian Harness Horse of the year. Laz 2018, Tiger 2019, Larry 2023 and 24'. 

King Of Swing held the title of Australian harness horse of the year for Luke McCarthy for the 3 in-between years of 2020, 21 and 22'.  but didn't win the Interdom (fin 5th) and not by Bettors Delight. so only a '2nd rate citizen' lol. 

so  Points Update with Ranga 🏆 scoring 3 , TABman 2 👍  and Gamma 4 today (thanks Laz,tiger and Larry 😁 )

BOAY INTERDOMINION Comp  Points Update. 

Rangatira  23 points ,   The Galah 16 points ,  TAB4ever 14 points,   Gamma  6 points ,   Brodster  1 point.

An Interdominion Question from me...

Q...What Kiwi winner of Pacers Final went into the series as a 4 x win horse ,with at least 3 of those on minor tracks .

Q....What Kiwi Favourite for Pacers final won the first day , was later found to be using illegal gear [ What was gear ] , had to remove it for second day but fell at the start of that race . Then in the final , was lead in first but the photo proved he was only second. 

Q...In that final 2 x horses who scored enough points were banned from starting , for what reason ....

Phew...I guess you had to be there !
