Mate Im still buzzing, what could have been for this team. When its time to go to bed I shall reread yr thesis and watch sleep creep up on me.🤣

Well done Maria. You didn't need me after all. Phhhttt. I knew Paul would be a good addition to the team.👍

Just kidding Pete, as per message. 👍😍

Barb, Barb, this isn't making my against total look good at all. Did Pete do this purposely ?. 🤣

How about we throw out the worst team in the semis and give a real team a go. ? . Just asking for a friend. 😜

Great picking by the trot boys. 😵‍💫.

Just to reiterate Pete. I had no 3 Kaipake Jack in the 2nd.

Pete missed my winner in the second and managed the last two quinellas. Jolimont, how good was he LB ,and you would be smiling after the trot race , Aussie 1-2-3-4. and I feel a bit aggrieved for Self Assured, just getting trapped the last couple of races and climbing all over them at the end.

Yep, and nice to have one that's going to be run properly. Just saying.😉

Karrots ,he should be close tomorrow against that class of horse over 2700, and I would be surprised if he wasn't fighting out the finish. Jolimont will be interesting with a 1rst stand start, but if he gets away cleanly he should by all accounts be fighting out the finish as well.

That was about 1966, I was in my last year at Intermediate and a bit before I took a more in depth interest in racing. Can only remember Best Bets and Turf Digest.

Definitely. Turf Digest had one for midweek and one for weekend. There was Sports Post in Wgtn, part of the Evening Post. Don't remember a Sports week Robert.

I wouldn't put it past him winning again. He is a super horse who very rarely puts in a bad run. Sixty nine starts , sixty times in the money, thirty wins , beaten all comers in Aussie and here since he was a 3yr old , over just about all distances. In my time he is one of the best to stick his head through a bridle.

You wind up easily Karrots. Come Cup time ,who knows who will be around, fit enough and ready to go.

Ok guys back to topic, before it ends up in a slanging match. We all have experience in the Industry in some capacity, so let's agree to disagree. I will frank this with the knowledge of having a son in law who broke in horses and trained some top horses. Having watched him, I am sure like most, he would be apoplectic with this guys methods.

Shaaadup.!!! That was pure fluke as he would even admit. But then we both know how fickle Harness results can be. Some nice Aussie representation on Frid and they will no doubt attack the front as always in true Aussie fashion , so won't die wondering. 👍

Did he learn these bad habits from his mentor ?, if he had one. If so ,someone else needs stringing up.

The million dollar word. The very first thing you think about before any major earthworks or laying of turf. It defines the end product. JMHPlumbersO.

Bit of noise for a change. Legends all in one room, brilliant.

Yes, but settled on the fence quite quickly and did nothing the whole trip as the others all went around and tried to get nearer. He was entitled to have a sprint left after that cushie run and most of the others were tiring by then. He will have to step, otherwise he is toast.

I very much doubt you will see Jolimont in the Cup ,LB. Only lightly raced, a 5 win horse and still a 4yr old. Four year olds don't win the Cup often, only 8 since 1976 have, and some of them have been outstanding. Jolimont has a way to go yet, but will be a stronger horse as a 5yr old. Millwood Nike ???, has only won once past 2200, another 4 yr old and a mare, and only Mainland Banner can lay claim to that as a NZ cup winner as a 4yr old mare. Has the sheer brilliance and ability though.

Yep, I will run it for you Pete. Yeh Nah !!!. Im in mate thanks. 👍
