Happy Sunrise Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Anyone know the state of the track for tomorrow? Did Methven get drenched like other places in the area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ Flash Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) Nothing in HRNZ site re Sundays meeting's track conditions but a very interesting runner in Race 8 is Michelle. Given its trained by Jones/Hill why isn't R May driving it as he is not on anything else. W Higgs the owner is to make a reappearance in the Bike.Form comment makes for a good read " Can be tricky to follow, but did well late last Sunday. Chance with manners." Its not the worst by any means. Greg Edited December 7, 2019 by JJ Flash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Many late scratchings with transport issues just announced..... one being Valmagne from r10 which is in 4 hours and trained pretty close to Methven. R7 Tracksarefortrains R9 Cast No Shadow R10 Great betting race, not sure why Ruthless Kayla is paying $10, maybe due to the draw but race fit and has won on the track. Was keen on Rituer in race 8 but is one of those late scratchings, will take a guess on Girls Let Loose in the same race and hope she steps away.

No chance with the bridges closed. It is trained a good 2 hours from Methven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be interesting how it impacts on future racing and travel. Depending on who you talk too some reports have the rangitata bridge being opened up later in the week but a couple of locals say its most likely to be condemned for future use with doubts of the other one inland at Arundel as well.
