Racing: Cup takes on greater
significance
2004-11-13 By MIKE DILLON Jockeys go out for races thinking about their horse and its owners. It's what they are paid to do. Two jockeys go into today's $180,000 Canterbury Draught New Zealand Cup thinking of themselves. But that's not a negative - it will make them even more competitive. Michael Walker and Allan Peard are desperate for a win aboard their respective horses Woburn and Hootandance in the season's first of the big three metric two milers. It's been a tough last two weeks for the two.
How long is a metric two miles? Does anyone know for sure? |
