Good prize money, though. That wouldn't be in Aussie dollars, would it?
Cattle stations bigger than Texas? That must smell bad.
It's 267,000 square miles, and 867 miles between it's farthest points....That's a big assed ranch.
I'll see you at one or more of these, Cam. Depending on my schedule.

The cattle stations don't smell too bad cause we don't have too many head per hectare - not enough grass. Driest continent on Earth, apparently.
Thanks for the heads up Cam. Oct should be a great month for racing!
