Tony, El Fuego really was on fire - you have taught me some Spanish thanks to your post and google. Do you know how much he took off the old record?
Presidentialsecret was within .1 secs of Charlton's 2100 Rec when he rated 1.56.7 today
Yo Yelande took 1.5 seconds off the 2240m track record for Trotters tonight at Swan Hill
Kevin - I can't tell you what the old record was at Bathurst as their website hasn't been updated since July 2014 and so the track records listed are in respect of the old showgrounds track and not the new venue.
Welcome Tony, Just had a look at the track records for Bathurst and it appears that the only new updated track record is for El Fuego's effort on the 26/12/14 and all the others appear to be from the old track.
A new year and the records keep tumbling at all different tracks. On Saturday 3 January at Temora Business in Motion set a new track record for the 2,000 metres mobile of 2.01.2 MR winning by 25 metres and then Sporty Spook broke the 1,609 record running mile rate of 1.57.5 and winning by 20 metres. Finally at Globe Derby on the same day, Maximan ran 1.55.9 winning the 2,230 Free For All.
Our Femme Fatale just smashed the old Charlton 2100m record of 1.56.6
I think the whole field may have broken the record

Oh the pain.....I was on the leader. You'd think there would be some solice that it took a track record to beat u......there's not!Quote:

Maximan would have just bettered his Globe Derby Tk Rec with the place-getters easily doing so as Guaranteed smashed it by 1.5 sec
And did it whilst injuring himself, Maximan that is.Quote:

I think the distances are all slightly different since the track reconstruction but his 1.56.7 was better than any old record too (I am sure Kyle will let us know)
I am sure the club would be expecting this to keep coming down following all their good work

Yes Kev it equals the best ever rate on the course - the fastest rate ever run on the track before today was 1:56.7 for 1725 metres by open class horse Mister McKinzie in 1996 - before the pegs went on and they raced on the rail then. Here are happy connections after their win today.
We should have mentioned that Intergalactic also broke a record at Warragul - for the new distance of 2210m. The first 4 all within 2.5m of each other suggests this record will continue to fall
Restrepo slashed 1.4 sec of the Hamilton Tk Rec Mile Rate for 2660m SS set by National Service winning the Cup last year
Not a track record but Thats Rite's 1.56.8 in the last is a very fast time for Mildura
http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-re...ic#MLC21011503
Race 6 over the mile at Charlton today was a fast one with all the place-getters only ½ sec outside the Tk Rec
and the first seven all breaking 1.56

Yayas Hot Spot took 2.1 sec off the Tk Rec winning the Tamworth City Cup by 42m

Yankee Rockstar took .6 off the 1690m Track Record at Shepparton Saturday night.
Vienna Eyre's win at Echuca today was a NTR for 2160m

Queens Vacation at Kilmore yesterday in the 2180m trot: 2.00.9 ( after being three wide for at least half a lap)
http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-re...I030215&ms=vic
Previous record held by Cold Sister.
Queen's Vacation also holds the Horsham track record for 2200m
Trotter Enjoy an Ale scorched around Shepparton in 2.00.7 STANDING START!

That is 1.6 sec off the Tk Rec after equalling the Ballarat Rec last weekQuote:

The asbestos team broke the Swan Hill 2240m Tk Record tonight with a new one from NZ
http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-re...ic#QBC10021502
Barynya took over 3 seconds off the Tk Rec winning the Charlton Cup - so plenty of them broke the REC
Edit: Last horse Arber, beaten 27m would have broken the old record
Horses must love the heat as it was over 100° in the shade on the old scale when the Cup was run (and the Apparent Temp was too ie it really felt that hot in the shade)
Mister Mundaka broke Philadelphia Man's Ballarat Track Record in the C2-4 Tontine Final tonight rating 1.55.2 for 2200m
As mentioned in the Terang Cup thread - Arden Rooney smashed the Terang 2680m REC last night rating 1.57.3

Arden Rooney broke Smoken Up and Cincinnati Kid’s previous track record with a slick mile rate of 1:57.8 despite the wet conditions.
Wow you are right Ev - I would be interested to know how much rain they had before the Cup - I know it was most of what they got but it can be so patchy it is hard to know how much that wasQuote:

Adore Me
Here's an interesting stat on Adam's mare Pas Ultimate Delight, although beaten 29.1m by Adore Me her personal time was 1.49.8 which would have made her the 4th fastest ever in Aust. But as she finished 8th she will now be the 11th fastest.
Congrats on having a sub 1.50 in your stable
Very interesting Bailey
When the half sis comes out and does that I am sure Blake Fitzpatrick would be even happier with his Saturday purchase (Lot 404 colt for $50k)Quote:

Not a Tk Rec but the Geelong Record has stood at 1.54.3 for 8 years!
