Woo-Hoo.. 8 more 'Win/In' BC races!

[Linny]

No Aussies will show up because of the additional fees involved after winning a "win and your in" event. Between nominations (which are due BEFORE the Manikato) and the costs of shipping and quarantine, it's a no go. It is too bad because after seeing Scenic Blast last week in England I was reminded of how good the Aussie sprinters are.
Honestly, the win and in concept is idiotic. It's not like the winner of any of those races, should they want to go, would be excluded. It's like calling the Wood Memorial a "win and in" for the Derby. Well, DUH!
