Ludwig Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Gee it's a long time since I can remember a club getting 210 nominations for a meeting. Impressive. The cup looks a wide open affair. I'm pleased to see them on the grass at Geraldine while they undertake repairs,. Good luck to them ..let's hope it's a great day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowornever Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Weakest Methven Cup field I have seen for several years, but great undercard. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks even, no standouts as in most years. When was the last time the Methven cup winner featured prominently in the finish of the NZ cup?

Ludwig Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 Good supporting races at Orari on Sunday. Anyone got anything special they have spotted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwig Posted October 10, 2021 Author Share Posted October 10, 2021 I haven't seen the Methven races today. How's the track? Guerin was unhappy with the decision to move Orari, so was wondering if it's holding up ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
