Another brilliant, bright sunny day on the coast.

The council has done well in acquiring the course for $1, and I assume this is because it was sold to a Developer, with the sections being 170k.

Have some good memories from riding there.

What a shame, I hope the rate payer of westland will see some benefits of the sale, but probably not, be swallowed up no doubt in the coffers, certainly some great memories over the years of attending their meetings  from a young age, a great track for viewing the racing everything so handy an close by, Decoy lad one that springs to mind winning over there, been many a good  horse win there, Covered n Grey a top mare that may have won 2 Miss Scenicland Stakes, from a punting point of view how could one forget the win of Our Spice trained by Mr Fuge, a must watch, tailed off by long distance in some of the worst track conditions seen, only to hug the rail and win by a huge margin, I certainly enjoyed the 50 fixed odds div, Mr Fuge always supported the coast an usually got a winner, some lining up three times on the circuit, I have the race on my sky, I'm sure the commentator Mr Teaz will remember that day.
