PWJ Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Round 6 - Saturday October 30 Comp closes at 11.40am Four meetings again this week with the last 4 races again all million dollar contests. More than one race at Tauranga was just just too scary for most on here.... Now we are getting down to the business end of the comp. Defeat is not an option for almost everyone on Saturday - the penultimate matchday - except for maybe The Chiefs or The Swampies. The Ferdies have found a little form and take on the top dogs from the Waikato while Maria may be reaching for The Joker as the Swamp Foxes take on the Blues in the Battle of the Maramarua. Hailing from opposite ends of the nation the high-flying Highlanders seek to repulse the Kauri Kats who may thrust out a paw brandishing a Joker on the day. Lastly, the Battle of the Gorge sees the HB Magpies - another fave to play their Joker - take on the wind turbine driven Manawatu Turbos in a clash which they commence separated by just one point. Remarkably, VS, Alan and Pete still remain unbeaten while everyone has now managed at least one win. The amazing Wrinkles still heads the Magnificent Seven while Sharne with a rabbit's foot in each pocket continues to bewitch her opponents into low scores. The Unfortunate Five has now become the sole preserve of just two teams - the Magpies and Kauri Kats - why is that ???!!! Races are: 1.
