6yo This Is The Plan (Somebeachsomewher) set a World Record as the fastest horse to ever win on a half-mile track when he won the $200,000 Battle of Lake Erie in 1:47.3 (1.47.6 Au) Saturday (June 5) at MGM Northfield Park. Pet Rock's record stood for 8yrs.

This is our own better link

as it provides a replay link - thankfully for I cannot get Northfield Park replays to work on my computer

Can anybody else get Northfield Park to work on the following link

Blowing my own trumpet now, the USTA Tracks page, which is how you get to replays (Boy have we got it easy in Oz), has now changed the Northfield Park link
I managed to get an email to them via USTA (see my post in USA thread to know that this is not as easy as it should be - Americans seem to want phone calls)

American import Aldebaran Revani broke the Australian record for trotting mares when she won easily in 1.53.9 at Menangle yesterday

It was the 4yo's 4th win in a row from only 5 Australian starts

You're right Patrick. I read about Aldebaran Revani on the peterprofit website and now see a correction/realization that the Australasian Trotters mile record is held by Maori Time who is a mare

The Kapiti Express won the Gawler Cup in 1.54.7 yesterday

By my calculations that is 2 whole seconds taken off the 2070m Tk Rec

3yo Yambukian broke the Warragul 2210m Tk Rec going 1.56.2 when winning by 22m

Didn't do it easy either, had to work hard 3w to the death and eventually the lead

The 2100m record at Geelong is 1.55.6
Tonight 3yo Bettor Call Me won by 18m in 1.56
He didn't have the best of luck in his first couple of starts after returning from a big Queensland campaign but in his last couple you can tell he is a serious horse
