VJOKE

The first Irishman says: “Aye, this is a nice bar, but where I come from, there’s a better one. At MacDougal’s, you buy a drink, you buy another drink, and MacDougal himself will buy you the  third drink!” The second Irishman then starts: “That sounds like a nice bar, but where I come from, there’s a better one called Quinns. At Quinns, you buy a drink, Quinn buys you a drink. You buy another drink, Quinn buys you another drink. “Then the third guy pipes up. “You think that’s good? Where I come from, there’s this place called Murphy’s. At Murphy’s, they buy you your first drink, they buy you your second drink, they buy you your third drink, and so on & on all night and you finish up going home with the person behind the bar !
“Wow!” say the other two. “That sounds fantastic! Did that actually happen to you?” “No,” replies their friend, “but it happened to my sister!”

VKEEPING

VPROMOTIONS

The previous week we had all different types of answers for the Final WINX Prizemoney after she won the Queen Elizabeth Stake, the correct answer was $26,336,674. The question last week Winx or Phar Lap, who has won more in 2019 dollar terms? By 2019 dollar terms as an example Phar Lap won the 1930 Melbourne Cup with 6.8kg over WFA, in today’s dollar amounts that equates to approximately $4.50m to the winner. Now extroplating it out & I had this confirmed by three people Phar Lap’s prize money in 37 wins, two seconds and three thirds equals $29.50 million. Amazingly 90 people replied by Email and all said WINX so no one collected the free $50 bets that were on offer. With Warrnambool next week the Promotion is if your horse falls in any Jumps Race then you get your stake back up to $100. Secondly if On Course at Warrnambool next week come up to our Stand on the Rails and have a FREE $50 bet on us. The Password to get the FREE $50 bet is “BIG Phil”, see if you can pick out who BIG Phil is that works for us?

VFACTS 

The actual first race meeting was conducted in Warrnambool in 1847 on the seafront in front of the Lady Bay Hotel where the horses still prepare today. In 1855 the Government set aside 100 acres as a Racing and Recreation Reserve. Then three years later in 1858 the first race meeting took place and included a three mile steeplechase with the winner collecting 40 sovereigns. The Warrnambool May Carnival dates way back to 1872 with the first running of the Warrnambool Steeplechase, now known as the Grand Annual Steeplechase, it changed its name in 1895. There were 11 runners and the prize money was 100 pounds. The following year in 1873 the first running of the Warrnambool Cup took place. It started off at 3,200m (the Melbourne Cup distance) and has had nine distance changes to arrive at the current 2,350m. It is usually won by one of the local horses that has a proven track record. The Wangoom Handicap is run over 1,200m and was first run in 1888, it is the feature of the middle day of the Carnival.
