fev, i was only half listening to 'in the gig' but i'm sure they said it was on his way to nsw for the newcastle mile & the ridiculous miracle mile so perhaps you can get your $$$$ back then
& for those wondering why the miracle mile is ridiculous firstly the race isn't run over a mile these days (perhaps when they run it at menangle it will be), the rules changed about how many starters to suit & 'the selectors' always make a 'left field' judgement to stir the pot, i think they should just pick the best 6 or 8 horses whatever rule is regarding numbers but stick to it
has harold park been given the go ahead to be sold ? i thought i heard that as well
