Our Lord and saviour Peter V’Landy’s putting a 2m dollar race on cup day. Watch the Vicmongs lose their shit. Delicious.

I legit LOL'd when I read this news this morning....Really obvious idea when you think about it, Cup Day is always a cracker but all the other meetings/races are usually mediocre at best. Gives something else for the punters to get excited for.

The Mexicans will be throwing their Tacos out of the Cot for sure though.

It will be worth it just for the lol’s. 2 mil well spent.

Some of us get off on the thrill of backing a winner, some people ride bikes, some people love to work out... well this merkin just loves to piss off Victorians, he loves it so much he does full time in two jobs.

I don't really get how it benefits horse racing to be encroaching on each others big carnival days just to piss them off. Then again I'm not from Sydney or Melbourne so give no f**ks about how folk in either city feel about each other

As long as it isn’t a staying race it just adds extra interest to the day. If it is a staying race there will be uproar but it will also be likely to attract a field of plodders. Just call it the Chris Waller benefit stakes if that’s the case.

You're right. The devil will be in the detail as always. And if they are projecting “The Big Dance” as a Country Cup Final, that’s cool but I would like to see the little blokes get a fair lick instead Waller just filling the race.

Anyway, I was listening to the RSN podcasts this morning and the Melbums were discussing it through gritted teeth which made me laugh and gave it points from me, straight off the bat.

There’s legit one of these races every Saturday in Sydney anyways

So if not staying, what distance?

Couldn’t possibly be another mile race? 1800? 2000?

Try and promote the national bloodstock to a bit more endurance?

I’m hoping Think It Over can strike a blow for the little guys tomorrow.

I’ve got a small share with a Caravaggio gelding with Kerry Parker and it would be good to see him get the chocolates.

Not a bad looking race at all. I don’t mind that I Am Superman either.

Lofty Strike you sexy thang

 

[hineyrulz]

lol Waller, the most corrupt merkin in the history of racing.

 

[Cumberland Eel]

@hineyrulz STOP… WALLER TIME! we will probably see Roots knock over Espiona/Fangirl at double figures in 2 weeks

I didn’t have a bet in the race but I said to a mate watch this thing get rolled by the stable mate. Ffs!!

 

[hineyrulz]

[Cumberland Eel]

[Cumberland Eel]

[Sphagnum]
