Maybe we're just seeing the best bits but Australia does appear to be geographically more colourful than anywhere else. There's even a lake somewhere that's pink!

Is Betfair IT so hard up they can only spare 4 bytes to list Wrck, which I thought was Warwick?

Are you saying you've got more than 4 characters for other courses? Rose, Flem?

They're all 4 characters, but at least Rose and Flem are obvious, Wrck could be anything. With the sheer volume of courses they could at least have 6-8 characters.

Rosehill's crap tonight! Struggling to get anything worthwhile and almost lost my 100% record for the year.

Thanks, once the number of tracks in Australia nears 26^4 they'll have to allow more than 4 characters. :)

Good to be back in Australia midweek. I'm splitting my chips between Kensington and Rosehill this week.

Some sharp moves at Rosehill R1 but you can always trust it to bounce back.

Neither have I, but if anyone asked me where it is I would have said Austalia. :)

Rosehill's trading well after a naff session last week. :D
