The Greatest TROT of ALL


Lightning Blue

Recommended Posts

It's all on the line tomorrow . The two great trotters go to war.

The summer Comp has the 4 great 1970's Pacers Teams but it's finally the 2 Interdominion winning trotters meeting for a Showdown.

Rex and Hesi , Zig , Craigos and  all maybe under the weather a bit from New Years celebrations and all a bit RUSTY ???  lol

Happy and Lightning have been studying 'drivers form' lol so well clued up now, and  Globe Rees, and Turny Tom, and Taniwha Jack at Team Lyell Creek also keen to join the winning NEW YEAR party at Lyell Creek that will see the No Response team unable to have any response when the heat goes on.

Afterall,    LYELL CREEK could trot 5 seconds faster than NO RESPONSE over most distances, (being 20 years later after the 1970's when he raced.)

I suspect Team No Response will be thinking it best if our Lyell Creek Team runs 5 x seconds then in the Head to Head 's ?  dream on boys !!!

 

NO RESPONSE                   VS             LYELL CREEK

CRAIGOS1                           VS             TANIWHA19

HESI                                       VS             LIGHTNING BLUE

RUSTY                                  VS            GLOBERDERBY 19

ZIG                                         VS            TURNY

SIR G                                     VS            HAPPY SUNRISE

Rusty V Globe. Wow.

Not sure which one would need a trip to the dairy for a milkshake on Sunday morning before the races to improve their chances. 

Mmmmm.

My New Year's resolution Happy, is to give up Milkshakes, and start early morning jogs along Woodend Beach instead.

But Happy would have to have a house change, which Im not sure he will be today, or at least a notification of human movement. 

Dont forget to have a good drink of the water at beach too @Happy Sunrise try to improve your performance today - that salt might help with the aging bones 😄

Missus is quite content to role play High Flying Harry and stay tucked up in the sheets until morning which is a complete waste of my trip to the beach which can leave capable of going all night.

Harness racing reflects life I suppose...

Rex probably has connections in the lower North Island and wouldn't surprise me if he has been on the phone to his trainer mates in central today...just my luck..

Don't like your chances Rex is all fired up and trotting like Sundees Son. You wonder if Korbyn is ever allowed to work the great trotter ? 

Rex with the North Island oil will be leading you a merry dance.

Lightning Blue drawing HESI will just have to do a Ben Hope Special . (Look around forever to see just how far back he is as per Reefton Cup lol)

Rusty and his 'No Response' team mates have done the 'Job' and after much tough Woodend Beach training and conditioning have WON THE DAY !!!

Trotting like the great Sundees Son , the No Response team of Rusty , Hesi , Craigos,  Rex and Zig  have outpointed Lyell Creek , (a dismal and bitter 2nd lol.....)

Hesi has shamed Lightning Blue into 'moving offshore' to try and improve his form. not working apparently lol... (Congrats Hesi !!!! a great effort with 6 winners) 

Happy Sunrise a shining light , driven desparately , to hold out the quiz-master guru Rex , and show us how it should be done .

Picking like a damp squib at the moment. Every dog has his day and ours is to come and we will blouse some poor unsuspecting opponent 5 zip with our joker and zoom to the lead in the concluding stages ,just like our namesake.
