Great race over in Aussie
« on: February 02, 2025, 09:17:13 PM »
The two best pacers in Australia are Leap to Fame and Swayzee. They have won over 5 million between them and they both have the same mama

I was rooting for the Kiwis but those two half-brothers are something else. You drive them 3 and 4 wide or how ever you want, and they don't stop

Those 2 have been at the top of down under racing for over two years now.  They have a half brother that races on the East Coast here.  Maximus Red A

Fun to watch. I question, with the perceived popularity of the sport there, why they can't build a track that scores more than six.

There are tracks that have full front rows.  Menangle for example is a 7/8 and they can go 10 across

How about the woman talking to the drivers on the track as they turn to the gate and asking them how they are going to race? Should try it here. Something different  and good info

What did the driver say? 'I just hope we don't end up in a pile since we are going six wide, two deep.' ;D

I remember reading a few years ago about NZ or AUST building a straight mile track. One side for harness other side for flats. Out in the boonies where land is cheap. A small grandstand, but a large barn area for both harness and flats.
Main focus on simucasting worldwide.
Did anything ever come of that?
I am just an old horse trainer still going around in circles. Sometimes Fast. Sometimes Half-Fast.
