Result - Telstra A Series 800 Vets Handicap

Posted by speedygeoff on Saturday, February 05, 2005 with
The Telstra A Series Vets handicap over 800 metres today featured a very strong run from recently turned 50 year old Phil White who, following his record breaking sub63 400 hurdles last Thursday, managed to hold out John Morton down the straight to narrowly win. A feature of the race was, despite the winds down the back straight, almost all runners ran season's best times. Times below have been adjusted for the starts which means that Rad Leovic's is exact and all the others are rough. Colin Farlow was the first finisher from our training group, and Ken, Maria, Kathy, and Charmaine all did well and are pleased with their runs.
