No Methven Workouts?

[Happy Sunrise]

Why is that?

I see they emphasize the track is in great order so what is going on? Counter Punch will be beside himself with no workouts. I fear for his well being.

Don't tell the Messara report is closing Methven ?

[Happy Sunrise]

This is weird. Why would they not go ahead?

[Westview]

Over the winter we did some maintenance on the o'Reilly corner  (corner past winning post) to give it as much time as possible to recover, there are no workouts. In saying that a few locals have trained on the track and it is fine.

Good to hear but the message is somewhat contradictory isn't it? 

Is there a possibility it will cut up?

2 weeks of bad weather would be a problem, the long range forecast is bad weather in the middle of this week then fine for the next couple of weeks.id say 99% no problem 1% go to another track if we have too.  Happy how about you do a good weather dance and shorten up the odds for us.

So you want it to pour? 

I will stay out of the weather dancing as I am looking forward to the 15th.

We just had unlimited classy intermediate grade horses like dear sir in the 80's, those grass track cups were so competitive, I think dear Sir's first race was kindergarten stakes against some really good sorts lord Manhattan who I remember cleaned up in Auckland before going to the states and Lyndon Robert... pretty sure dear sir ended up in America....
