TooFast Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Congrats, Maria and the Swamp Foxes on a successful Triple Joker play. 😙 You did well, and are a strong chance to take out this whole comp. It was a strange ole weekend's racing with the downturn in weather and track conditions. To be honest with work yesterday I didn't end up seeing a thing and have only caught up with the results this morning. So on to next weekend where we'll be looking to bounce back in a tough match against the Highlanders, who are much, much better than their 8th place in the standings would indicate. Both teams looking for improved performances to leap up the leaderboard. Thanks, PJ, and see you Saturday, folks. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooFast Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Great job Gordy for the Mighty Blues .... not only the long-shot winner Amalfi Prince but also the quinella. That gives us a mighty leap towards the Team Profit threshold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
