Great race, that Golden Reign brilliant.

Ants maybe should have pulled earlier and wouldn’t have been knocked down, extinguished Master Musician as well I remember.

Winner deserved it, last with a lap to run👍

Victor Supreme

Young Mister Charles

1995 a year for controversy. Robert Dunn adamant Master Musician , would of won . He was heavily backed into favourite on the newly formed CENTREBET (based in Alice Springs) on line bookies first year from a heap of NewZealanders that signed up. 

Victor Supreme (glenn Wolfenden ) 2nd and Young Mister Charles (Denis Wilson NSW) 3rd over line both later disqualified for positives. Well found Blackie !!!!!

( Enteebee  14 pts , Double R  11pts,  Globe Derby + Josias  +  Blackie  all 4 pts , Karrots and Craigos both 1 pt)

Blackie moving up 2 points with yesterdays correct answer as we await the Mot getting under way.

QUIZ question today : Who is this great horse ??, that galloped in that final , and caused a half -hour stewards inquiry before the all- clear was given and GOLDEN REIGN taking the title . She galloped in the exact same spot during a heat , which ultimately , didn't help her case. (Of Mr Butt blaming the winning driver Chris Alford in the GF)

Question 2 :   She won many heats , made many Grand Finals , but only came up with 2 x Interdominion 3rd Placings. 

                       Name those 2 Grand-Final winning Champions good enough to beat her (when she was 3rd) ?

Westburn Grant and Jack Morris, she was 3rd both times. Great mare and a little unlucky not to win more big races than she did.

Great work by Globe Derby! naming 2 very strong front running Interdominion Winners. You have to of been extra good to defeat Blossom lady as they did in the 90's. Westburn Grant and the Nz-bred WA rep Jack Morris.

Globe Derby also showing great form at the Mot today,  for Team Lyell Creek, by bagging the trot winner early in the day for Katie Cox named Magnifique Dimanche. (who trotted well like Lyell Creek would of done himself)

A truly Magnifique 'double ' there for Globe and so he moves up 2 more points in the quiz standings.

A sensational Training feat by Luke McCarthy to get TWO horses un-defeated through the Heats.

That would have to be a Interdominion first for a single stable.?

*The fantastic record breaking Interdominion trainer Natalie Rassmussen (with junior training partner Marky) has nearly done the CLEAN SWEEP at both the past 2 Interdominion carnivals.

ULTIMATE SNIPER at Auckland 2019 won All three heats and the Grand Final . driven by Nat. great effort.

CRUZ BROMAC at Melton 2018 won All three heats and was nice 3rd to 'Tiger Tara' (Todd McCarthy) in the Final. driven by Nat.  'Cruz' went on to run 4th in the 2019 Grand Final as well driven by Mark.

So seems to be getting common these days ?? as the opposition is just not up to McCarthy (Aus) and Allstars (nz) complete dominance.

can see why the Nz connections of Alta Orlando and Spirit of St Louis sent those horse to McCarthy , But seriously look like they are only in for 3rd or 4th money . The TRIPLE EIGHT approach might have been better, and still a chance ?????

Yes agree T Casey breed him & still is a part owner. Hope he gets his chance in final. Think he has a big bunch of new owners too Oz. Found this out as last nite was online sniffing around. Put in Peterprofit.com & it was down. Seems to still be down this a.m So googled Peter Profit & a twitter page come up. Long story short. Seems like an owner of Spirit started the twitter page, not Casey & not PP himself. Seems like this owner has a major dislike to Peter P. This owner probably crossed the line IMO. Altho there are always 2 sides to every story. 

It ended in a major twitter rumble between the 2 resulting in full monte photos been posted online on Twitter. Yikes. Its all still up publicly even tho fight was last year as its the last twitter posts made. Goodness me.

For another four bonus points LB, would you like the four, apart from the two that have already been mentioned, that have won done the clean sweep, since Young Quinn?

1980  Pure Steel won 3 heats then off 10m SS in GF, got planted 3 wide the trip for 3rd to Koala King (Locarno 2nd for Nz)
