Turf Deli Spring Racing Carnival - Weekend Hussler Tribute
Cox Plate - Free To A Good Home 25/10/2008

What if you put on a Weight For Age championship of Australasia over 2000M and no one turned up ?

The Moonee Valley Racing Club is struggling to get horses to come to their party this year and are anxiously glancing at the clock wondering if their guests are going to arrive or not.


It has been a disappointing turn out – so much for all those so-called good friends.

LIGHT FANTASTIC was invited months ago, but never RSVPd, and they haven’t heard from him in ages.

WEEKEND HUSSLER has been going way too hard, has too much on that day and probably won’t be able to go the distance.

POMPEII RULER is a no show for a 2nd year in a row, he is so off the Christmas Card list.

GUILLOTINE was invited as an afterthought, but whilst initially appearing keen, even he had some lame excuse (about being lame).

MALDIVIAN generally turns up to most events, but usually struggles to make it to the end and bails out early.

At least the young Sydney society party girl SAMANTHA MISS has promised to show.


Whilst they are naming 4 emergencies for all the other feature races, Moonee Valley is just going to keep those spots open
– so if you have a horse and wouldn’t mind a bit of a run around, feel free to drop by on Saturday arvo. They will provide a saddle and some race shoes.

No need to bring a plate – they have one to give away.
