And Rangirangooo is a winner!

My second time to the races I didn't make the same mistake as the first time. I dressed up for the Autumn Festival at the Randwick Races on April 17 for Sandy's birthday!



I placed a bet on Rangirangooo (I liked the sound of the name, reminded me of Kangaroo and the Barossa winery Moorooroo) to either win/place/show and Rangirangooo won! My winnings were $27 - enough for my cab ride home after all the champagne I enjoyed at the races.

  1. Nice! It looks like they run clock-wise where I think that they run counter-clock-wise in the states. Hmmm. So next time I see an Aussie horse in a race I'm betting against them b/c they'll be all confused- is it possible to bet who'll come in last?

  2. You know, I never considered that they run clock-wise - are we sure that in the US they run counter-clock wise?
