Birchip Cups on Sunday. It is a $4,500 race program
I reckon it would be nice if HRV could make the 2 cups $7k races

Both Cups set new Tk Records
Im Anothermasterpiece equalled Perspective's 2019 MR while Well Defined took a whole 2 secs off the trotters MR

Pour some of those extra sponsorship dollars into the Cups next year and see if we can't go lower again
Mind you unless you get them up to an attractive $25k+ you could lose some of the appeal that the 'non metro $14,500' offers

I almost missed that we have the Wangaratta Cups at Shep tonight. Being for $14,500, this is where we find more cup like fields

Excellent fields for the Charlton Pacing and Trotting Cups

I was definitely going (and keen to see their new facilities) until I was reminded of a Melbourne commitment

Last night's Tasmanian Cup was a disgrace and a blight on the sport.
Echuca Cup on Friday. $35k like Charlton but did not attract quite the same depth of field but could well end up with the same winner (2 cups in 5 days would be quite an effort)

Blaster Ranger wins the Ouyen Cup by a ½Hd from Egodan

Egodan ran 4th in the cup in 2017 when Messini set the Tk Rec

Horsham on Sunday
The trotters Cup could be interesting but the field of 6 is ridiculously small for a $25k Gp3
In the $60k pacing Cup the Stewart/Tonkin stable have gone for the overwhelm them with numbers approach and have 5 of the 10 runners

Horsham Cup - why we don't want one stable dominating the field
Stewart/Tonkin had 5 of the 9 horse field and finished first 5 BUT the horses never 'raced'
They did not break 2min
Confirmed my reason for staying home
Very disappointing for a $60k Gp2

The Riverina Championships heats at Wagga on Tuesday night has attracted stars like Wolf Stride for the boys and Maajida for the girls
but I don't think I have ever seen such a spread of ratings. In Wolf Stride's heat we have him rated at 120 while we have Auckland Star with a NR of 30
