    A top field for the super series 3yo C&G in the last race at Yarra Valley today and an unusual contest with a tearaway - check it out

    Going by the call they had problems with the semaphore board and I know it is hard to time off the video but I thought they may have gone a bit faster than that

    All Eyes On Us and Major Secret staged a bit of a private war in their heat of the Vicbred 4yo C&G at Geelong tonight with All Eyes winning and taking a new Tk Rec in rating 1.56.1 for the 2100m

    Our Bedrock broke the Stawell 1780 Track Record today when blitzing a C1 field by 17m in 1.56.8
    It was almost 2yrs exactly since his only other win at his first start as a late 4yo
    At only his 4th start for Peter Manning, I think this 6yo will continue to be VERY hard to beat when he finds the front

    First night on an upgraded track at Echuca last night - just the one sub 2:00 rate but expect the times to improve greatly with further activity on the track.


    The rebuilt camber works similar to those done at Warragul where times have been lowered to a 1:55 mark after a few meetings.


    Mildura and Horsham will have similar upgrades in the future, complementing Ballarat which was done last year.


    The smaller tracks having their camber improved gives them all the characteristics of the bigger circuits, except the circumference of course, and helps create a point of difference in our industry,

    I wrestle with being a fan of the small tracks where unlike the gallops we can see everything but on the other hand dislike the fact that at Melton hardly anything outside the first 3 ever win - I have been thinking they should have longer straights at Melton but maybe they should have just made it smaller!

    I would say that upgrades at venues such as Echuca, Warragul and Mildura have been necessitated as much by their geographic layout as anything else. To my knowledge the properties these venues are located on aren't big enough/practical enough to have a 1000 metre track built on them without levelling the entire site and starting again.

    LOL
    I can see what happened there - somehow the Lead time has been entered as minus - 3.7 which has led to the race time being recorded as 7.4 secs faster than it actually was and hence the world record MR
