This man in photo not without a chance in the Oaks as won a heat well with ELEGANT last week. Has drawn well against seven Emma Stewart fillies too. Ants knows how to ''Do the Job' too. Proven form on the board with this Filly. Who is she ? Dr Susan ? At Menangle ? 1 Quote

That is unbelievable you picked that up. !!! 😧😆Could of sworn that was the Vic Oaks as she carried the Yellow number 5 to Victory in that. upon review she had a yellow sulky in Victoria too lol.... This photo is 2 weeks before her Vic Oaks win in Jan 2020. Is Dr Susan (hanging on to win by a head from Vincenzina in 1.52.1 ) in her Very first Australian start in the Group 2 Raith Memorial at MENANGLE. (Points update now Ranga 50 , Blackie 20, Hunter 1, Gamma -10. lol) Quote
Gammalite Posted October 9, 2022 Author Posted October 9, 2022 Todays horse in above post with blue wheels sulky, is shown winning her NSW Oaks heat easily for Mark. Who is she? Fellow kiwi traveller, Dr Susan won the other Oaks heat easily but drew 9 in the NSW Oaks final and so then Anthony Butt got a months suspension for cutting them all off to get the lead !!! 😅. He then handed up to Mark P who did his usual thing and powered away to Victory anyway .! (Having said that Mark was only 2nd to Dr Susan in the Victoria Oaks earlier with this horse lol ) Quote

Gammalite Posted October 10, 2022 Author Posted October 10, 2022 With Cup week approaching I'm Lovin this photo of a couple of the greats ! A Couple of the best drivers I've ever seen , as in their Will To Win and ability to jump on any horse and give it a go , and go close to winning. They are 2 of the greats alright. The 2 Trotters in the photo here weren't absolute stars , but tried hard (and did leave 'Sundee' down the track in this one lol ) So who is this Handy 'quartet' in for 10 points ?? Quote

(counting that as an Aussie quinella ? even though 2 of them are kiwis ? lol😅) Ranga spot on BTW and takes the points.🥇 Nearly all youngsters and all dressed up very Spiffy and looking good there in the background ?. What a fantastic sight at the harness racing. !!!! nice and classy in Christchurch. They had some Vic Cup coverage on free to air TV the other night from Melton, and most of the crowd looked like they were going to a barbie, camping or something. The trainers and owners they interviewed even looked average. (in comparison to that nz photo) Quote

Gammalite Posted October 10, 2022 Author Posted October 10, 2022 Has Blair gone to sleep ? He's that far clear of the field that it was hard to stay awake in this win. Ant's may of got the choc's in the FFA yesterday , but back to 2nd for the big Show Day Classic as the kiwis repel the Aussie raider in the form of this Trotter . Who is todays Big Winner? Quote

The Tim Butt stable-mates had been Headed off by the 'Monkey ' , but in true 'Hands Down' style or even 'tough Tasmanian' style FLASHING RED is off the canvas, to take the win . Tribute running 3rd in the end. great drive by Anthony on the winner off 10m handicap. Not sure who David Earnshaw is so take your word for it. 😉. 10 points in the bag...... Quote
Gammalite Posted June 29, 2023 Author Posted June 29, 2023 Well some excellent picking by Ranga and Blackie and some wonderful photos on this page of thread. brilliant !!! Here's another one ? It took me a while to work out this photo .. who it was and when ? definitely Addington. But some of the 'older' boys might have a crack ? Who Do We have here ?? there's A horse with flies eyes goggles on too ? lol. Quote
Blackie Posted June 29, 2023 Posted June 29, 2023 (edited) 1995 Interdominion Final The best performance I've witnessed live, gave them all a start and a beating did that Aussie Golden Reign. What I noticed was Chokin's colours in the background, but he wasnt in the finish after that skirmish that Blossom Lady caused by letting Golden Reign go and then trying to come out a bit late,remember Master Musician being wiped out, but I think he got promoted post humously after Victor Supreme, fly eyes hood( leg liniment) & Young Mr Charles(caffiene?) got disqualified. What a great run. Edited June 29, 2023 by Blackie Quote
