And thanks to you Maurice, as I discovered it was the Burnie Cup yesterday and the replays made for great viewing this afternoon

I highly recommend watching unless you suffer from Vertigo as despite starting in the back straight, the finish of the Cup was not until they passed the winning post for the 5th time!
They say the home straight is 95m but one that looked to have won by half the length of the straight was only credited with winning by 26m

I don't know if the non-cup stand start races were new distances but the Tk Rec was broken/set for three distances yesterday
