The GSP Club held their All Age stake at the lovely site at Goomalling. This is always a double header with a Novice and Restricted stake held the day before, and people are welcome to camp onsite for the weekend.
A fine warm day greeted competitors, and so did the mosquitoes. Hundreds of them, and as big as helicopters !!! Three runs were conducted in record time due to the efforts of the Chief Steward Lee Golding and his helpers in the field, and the promptness of the competitors, and people were on their way home by mid afternoon.
Results are as follows:
