Shock, horror...I must be good more often Its actually called moving on. Have given you a compliment before too, so its nothing new about another good thread you started about a South topic,+ you said you are a good poster about South topics & to keep posting. Also given Ranga compliments too. Try to balance things out. Not just focus on our differences. And then move on, asap when we have had our differences. Yes Chief lol. So good. Regarding my post re this thread. It is a great thread! Its encouraged a bunch of engagement from a variety of posters & should strike up a bunch of views too! Great for Chief & the site!

Mikie Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) 1 hour ago, Chief Stipe said: This is another one for @the galah and @Gammalite Contrary to what @Michael aka @Mikie says the local Hokitika Harness enthusiasts used to work with the Westland Racing Club to arrange harness races when the gallops were on. They would organise sponsorship and many were harness owners so would encourage their trainers to bring horses down. Dad organised for his trainer Joe Hill to bring a horse down called Two Bob. Essentially there were four races on the Saturday and four races on the Monday. All the horses had two starts each day. Anyway Two Bob didn't run a message on the first day in its two races. 😉 However in its first race on the second day it bolted in paying $13 to win. Needless to say Dad and Joe had more than 2 bob on it. They scratched from the second race and retired to the bar. ffs can't you get a grip Chief I have already posted that we were talking about different eras which should have been obvious to you from my post about the TB Clubs getting permission to restart trotting races on their TB racedays Get over it Chief, over the last 6 months you seem to be compelled to leap in and make a statement that you expect everyone to just accept because you are so much more clever than anyone else, what's up with you? You're making JJ Flash look good My memory was crap, it paid $13 and not $9 Edited September 23, 2021 by Mikie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You post several posts after the post that you are now quoting!!!! 3 minutes ago, Mikie said: My memory was crap, it paid $13 and not $9 No your memory was quite good. I posted Sweet Billy's actual result and it paid $9.50. AGAIN after the post you are quoting from. If you have a look I answered your question. It's first race was at Alex Park and then it meandered down the North Island before ending up in the South Island. Hence it was the only horse in the Westland Racing Club race to have already raced right handed. Hokitika being well known as the "Ellerslie of the South"!

Chief Stipe Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 BTW I can confirm that @Brodie does have @Michael on ignore.

Armalight could of jogged down in the sulky for a wee bit of excercise ?? ........ Yeah tell that to Bay Foyle! Anyway a decade between Aramalight and Arapaho. Arapaho broke the World Record in the Dunedin Festival Cup. He ran the 11 furlongs (2212m) from a standing start in 2:48 3/5, a mile rate of 2:02 3/5. At Forbury of all places!!! This clipped 1 3/5 off the world record set by Johnny Globe, in 1955. A record that had stood for nearly 20 years. The current record is only 8 seconds faster!
