Gammalite Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Another day at the courthouse is tough going . Far easier and more enjoyable to be a Stipe i would suggest lol...... Much more enjoyable to remember some greats of the Harness World in Aus and NZ. !!! so here we go...... Quiz day 6 is to ask for the Absolute SUPERSTARS who were able to Win both a NZ Cup and the INTERDOMINION Grand Final. Question 1 . Can think of 4 horses to complete the 'Biggest Double' there is possible to win. Who are the four horses ? (1 point for each , that anyone can think of.) Question 2. Here is one of them in the photo parading away. Who is the driver there ? (1 point) An Interdominion and a NZ Cup for this bloke in photo, something Superstars Gammalite and Young Quinn couldn't quite achieve. (Interdom but no Nz Cup) Trots fan on the board now with 2 points in the last quiz , Blossom Lady and Chief 4 points, the HorseMan 3 pts, Brodie-Trotsfan-Gamma-Ranga ALL 2 pts, Hunter 1 point.

'Robin Dundee' a Cup runner-up 3 times (to Lordship and Cardy) and famously taking an Interdominion GF Dead heat victory. BONUS QUESTION : This century 4 x Interdominion winners have come up just short of winning the NZ Cup !! Can you name any of these 4 horses in the 2000's that could finish only Cup 'Runner-Up' yet Win the Interdom ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are Spot On Mr Horseman !!! I was trying a 'tricky one' with the Aussie rep SMOKEN UP ! "Trigger" did win the Interdominion grand Final and then disqualified later for a positive swab. "Trigger" did get 2 Nz Cup seconds and a third (Just like Tiger Tara). 2 great stayers to just miss out on a Cup. !! Rangatira putting in a VINNIE KNIGHT like move on Our Maestro as well. Have to pay that !!. Kiwi bred Our Maestro winning the Interdominion in Sydney and second in the NZ Cup to Luxury Liner . So four points to the Horseman and 2 points to Ranga (double points for a Vinnie Knight horse as the great man would of liked the idea of that) Vinnie with 10 drives in a row in the Interdominion Grand Final without winning it. !! good to see a NZ Cup 2nd for him at least . (and Interdom 2nd with "Poppy"to Gammalite at Auckland) Thanks for that Rangatira !!!!! POINTS total : Blossom Lady 10pts, theHorseMan 7, Rangatira -Chief Stipe 4, Trotsfan-Brodie-Gamma 2, Hunter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
