Happy Sunrise Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I heard Brodie was born 9 months after this was published. Not sure what went on but speculation is welcome. 1 Quote
Happy Sunrise Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 She doesn't look very happy. At least Cardigan Bay is in colour the next issue. Quote
Happy Sunrise Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 It contained all sorts of information. Whoever compiled it deserved a medal. Quote
Happy Sunrise Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 And track information. I heard the All Stars cleaned up at Victoria Park. Must have enjoyed the 200m straight. Has anyone been to the Hawkes Bay for grass track racing?? Quote

Well before the BGLQT and any other letter you want to add these days. Actually come to think of it, it's a wonder the silks weren't in the rainbow colours. Anyway, jolly good on them I say. Quote
Rusty Posted May 13, 2020 Author Posted May 13, 2020 '81 NZ Cup. Couple of goodies in here... 1 Quote
Rusty Posted May 13, 2020 Author Posted May 13, 2020 The '82 Cup And the bad old days of racing (note the important notice in photo), when divi's were not rounded up to one full dollar. Terrible, terrible times, and a sad, sorry state of affairs racing was in back then. Quote

Was bloody hard to get a start in the Cup. Real hard. You hard to worthy. Cup class. "Imola" hahahaha the thing is still running. Was lucky to win 5 races that horse. Quote

Rusty Posted May 13, 2020 Author Posted May 13, 2020 Starship, a handy enough horse having his first race day start, on Cup Day '86. Quote
