Dunno if the race will be covered in Oz, but she is having her second run tomorrow in race 3 at Timaru. (1.30pm NZ time). Since her first race she had a trial which she comfortably won, so heres hoping she can get up tomorrow.

Phar Lap Raceway? That's a fairly grandiose name for Timaru!

Thats why (whilst I don't agree with it) Kiwis always try and claim that you ozzy's stole Phar Lap from us.

Well she claimed her first win today, was fuckin exciting, and did it pretty easy in the end. I also got my ugly face on TV leading the horse back to scale after the win :)
