The full vote counts, in case you haven't seen them:


Jumps horse
Amanood Lad 30
Sea King 10
Wee Biskit 10
Mr Mor 4

Cannot imagine how amazing it must have been and I am so glad you went! I think you would have regretted it if you had not gone and regret SUCKS.

Thanks cause I had not seen the voting and this especially was really interesting... I would have thought it was literally backwards. Shows how much I know!

Off topic but whatever...

I like most of the 40 flag designs but some of the rejects were really funny!

Thoughts? Is it strange changing the flag or is it about time?

The biggest jumping races are in August/September - Amanood Lad has only had one start in 2015, but he won the big ones last year.

I've always been opposed to changing the flag, simply because of how much money the whole process is costing. I feel like that could be used on other things. But I have to say a lot of those designs are really nice.

Addictive Habit! That was stunning.

Interesting and thanks for the answer.

Wow Addictive Habit was fantastic and so were most of the rest of the field!

That was amazing and I feel like it'll take me forever to catch my breath.

Love Pump Up the Volume so very much but how wonderful for Little Alfie Brown! 11 year olds rule haha!

While I do read The Informant on a daily basis I have to include this link to another, inferior place , just because.

That was really nice to see.

I'm confused by the noms for the 6th at Pukekura Raceway on Saturday. Is that a match race or a mistake or am I hallucinating?
