Why don't they think outside the box? Add a meeting or two at York, Narrogin or even Toodyay. Take the load off Bunbury, Pinjarra and Northam so they can stand in for Belmont. Pinjarra Thursday has 4x maidens, 2x C1s, a 54+ and a C5. No reason a meeting l...

More than happy to keep the % the same, but the prize money increase over the last few years should cover the increase in cost that's all dependent if the horses are earning tho if there not earning then the prize money increase isn't really covering the i...

Realistically it looks like Belmont will have a handful of meetings before we're back at Ascot. There's so little chance that the work being undertaken will result in a fix in the time frame they're predicting. The concern in the short term is- how will the s...

Longest putt JJ Spaun had holed this year was 35'. On the back 9 today he sank a 40 footer and the longest putt by anyone this week, a whopping 64 footer to win it on 18.
