Three Rivers Machinery Case IH Macquarie Picnic Race Day STYLISH winter wool and felt fashions, and a night of dining and dancing to one of Australia’s most prolific performers will be additions to the Three Rivers Machinery Case IH Macquarie Picnic Race Day when it returns to the track for the first time since 2019 – with a new winter date. The iconic event with its strong, six race program, has been a fi rm favourite on the racing calendar since the 1880s, and is set to swap December’s blistering heat for Trangie’s milder July weather in 2023. The change of date also supports the small but mighty race day committee to give their all to the much-loved event that has long put Trangie on the map. “The committee is primarily farmers, so December is a really busy time, but this way we’re able to really put on a fantastic event and put our everything into the lead-up,” committee president Cameron Ferguson said. “It’s a huge undertaking and everyone works really hard but we’re hugely excited about its return this year and we’ve got some amazing supporters and events happening.” Typically held in the December school holidays, the Macquarie Picnics Race Day, in conjunction with major sponsor Three Rivers Machinery supported by Case IH for the seventh year, will now run this Saturday at Trangie.

Local hero! Skye’s the limit, winning Para-Sports Athlete of the Year prize By GINNI BROWN NARROMINE’S very-own Skye Morrissey has been awarded the prestigious Para-Sports Athlete of the Year award for her incredible swimming performance in the 2022/23 season. Her personal triumph was announced at the Western Region Academy of Sport (WRAS) Presentation Night held in Bathurst last Saturday. Also attending were a number of athletes, coaches, and supporters, from the whole Academy region, which covers a massive area of the country NSW. Skye’s highly-prestigious award followed her fi ne results after competing at the national level of the Australian Age Championships on the Gold Coast in April this year. This was a huge, threeday meet involving the best swimmers in the nation. Loving competitive swimming, Skye also represented the Macquarie Yabbies at carnivals across the region over the summer; and also competed for Narromine at the Combined High School Championships. Local swim coach (and proud Mum), Krista Morrissey, said that the “Athlete of the Year” gong, was a fitting reward for the young competitor’s commitment to her craft. “Skye’s dedication to her training and performance efforts, are mind-blowing,” Krista said. “She trains all year-round, and just loves being in the pool,” she added. With hearty congratulations to Skye; local pool fans, look forward to watching her race in the next swimming season!

Three Rivers Machinery Case IH Macquarie Picnic Race Day

From page 1 “We’re so lucky in Trangie; we’ve only got around 1000 people here but we’re hugely punching above our weight in terms of talented people and businesses so we’re lucky to have this incredible support that helps us attract a strong field,” Mr Ferguson said. And the fun doesn’t fi nish when the races do – tickets are on sale now for The Stables. With a dress code of ‘coat and tie’, the over 18s evening will roll out a delicious two-course dinner catered by Modern Foodie in Narromine, a full bar, and live music by Rennie Adams. The charismatic blues and soul singer has been captivating audiences since his successful appearance on The Voice in 2017. Rennie splits his time between Nashville and Sydney, and with

his natural charm and talent as a performer, he’s set to provide the good times and tunes in spades at The Stables. Tickets to The Stables are on sale now and Mr Ferguson encouraged everyone to get in fast. “There is a limited number of tickets to be sold for The Stables and it’s shaping up to be a great night with incredible entertainment, so we strongly suggest you get in early to avoid disappointment,” Mr Ferguson said. “The Macquarie Picnic Races is a long-standing tradition and we’re extremely grateful to all our valued sponsors for their support towards our race club, especially during the dry and timing times, and we welcome many of our local sponsors back on board who’ve stuck with us through the drought and COVID-19.” See advertisement

Preparations begin for 2023/24 bushfire season By ANDREW TARRY TOWARDS the end of every winter the preparation for bushfire season begins. This year is no different with the NSW government announcing extra funding of $10 million dollars to support increased reduction burns across the state. The last two summers have seen extremely wet conditions and although this has reduced the frequency and severity of fi res, it has also enabled a large increase in vegetation and fi re fuel. Since the Bureau of Meteorology have moved the EL Nino status to ‘alert’ which means a likely return to hot, dry, and windy conditions this summer, it is expected that the upcoming warmer months could mean a return to a more traditional fi re season.

The minister for emergency services, Jihad Dib said “with warm, dry conditions expected to return in coming months, we are potentially looking at a serious fi re season and it’s important we do everything we can to support our fi re services and land managers to prepare”. Only 20 per cent of planned hazard reduction burns were able to be completed within the past year due to the prolong wet weather and flooding. The government have announced that the $10 million program will “develop a statewide mobile workforce to accelerate this critical work ahead of the coming fi re season”. “The funding will enable the Rural Fire Service (RFS) to employ an additional 100 mitigation crew members to carry out vital hazard reduction and mitigation works in identified

high risk areas of the state. The extra mitigation crew members will be based mainly in regional areas of NSW to help take advantage of every possible opportunity to conduct hazard reduction.” Work will be carried out to prepare trails and establish control lines and assist burns during the week when volunteers may not be readily available. Minister Dib also commented saying that the RFS are facing a significant backlog in hazard reduction due to the recent rain. “We need we need to accelerate our efforts heading into the next fi re season and these additional crews will help make a difference. It is important to plan ahead and come up with a proactive approach to maximise our narrow window for hazard reduction, as a result of unfa-

vourable weather conditions. “We are implementing a range of hazard reduction options; this is just one way we can complement existing efforts and enhance our ability to respond to future fi res. I want to thank our hard-working RFS mitigation crew members and volunteers for their efforts as they work hard to keep each of us safe.” The RFS have stressed the need to carry out these reduction hazard burns. The varying degrees of success of the hazard reduction burn process when conditions are favourable and can often mitigate the worst of the bushfire season. The RFS commissioner Rob Rogers said, “with the change in weather systems seeing an end to frequent rain and the return of dry, windy conditions, we need to get our teams out

there doing hazard reduction burns at every opportunity”. “Over the last three months, almost 55,000 hectares of work has been completed, work critical to protect more than 50,000 properties and safeguard lives.” The devastating black summer fi res of 2019/20 are still in recent memory as the last time the state faced a devastating bushfi re season. “There is plenty more to be done and this boost in mitigation personnel will enable even more vital work to be undertaken. While we are doing what we can, home and property owners also need to assess what they can do to prepare for the upcoming fi re season as well,” said RFS commissioner Rob Rogers.

NSW gov greenlights batteries to power homes By ANDREW TARRY THE NSW government have just approved two new batteries to “help future proof NSW’s power supply for more than 100,000 homes in the Central-West Orana and Upper Hunter regions”. The move comes as more components of the renewable energy transition are implemented by the government in the designated renewable energy zones (REZ). The energy storage system approved for the Central-West Orana REZ will be built and operated just south of Wellington in Apsley. The 120-megawatt/240 MWhour battery will connect to the existing electricity network. The government states that the new projects will “cre-

ate 132 jobs and inject $280 million into NSW’s economy”. The transition to renewable energy has become a focus of the government lately as it argues for the need to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, in accordance with the federal government’s emission reduction targets. In the approval of the two new batteries the NSW government has said that REZ’s are the NSW “power plants of the future” and that they will support “new jobs and business opportunities during construction and operation in regional areas”. Each of the batteries green lit by the NSW government is expected to be operational towards the end of 2025 and will have a lifespan of 20 years.

“Giving these batteries the green light will play a critical role in securing reliable, renewable energy across NSW. The transformation of our energy system needs to occur as soon as possible. Batteries are not only critical to supporting our state’s transition to net zero, they will assist us to get there sooner,” said minister for energy, Penny Sharpe. The project in Aspley was granted consent for the development application early in June 2023. In a report on the reasons behind the consent, the NSW department of planning and Environment states that the key reasons the project should go ahead are: f “The project would provide a range of benefits for the region and the state as

a whole, enabling renewable energy to be stored and dispatched during peak demand, supporting grid stability and energy security. f Contributing to a more diverse local economy. f Creating up to 50 construction jobs and 5 operational jobs. f A capital investment of approximately $123 million. f the impacts on the community and the environment can be appropriately minimised and managed to an acceptable level, in accordance with applicable NSW government policies and standards. f None of the NSW government agencies objected to the project, and (Dubbo Regional Council) is supportive of the project.”

The batteries are comprised of the newest cutting-edge technology. To service the regions and provide the required energy the batteries will capture, store, and distribute energy. According to the minister for planning and public space, Paul Scully this will help secure “supply for thousands of homes and put downward pressure on electricity prices. “The batteries will be used during peak power consumption times and provide backup during outages or extreme weather events reducing the need for costly distribution upgrades or emergency generators,” said minister Paul Scully.

“With understanding & compassion we serve”

Proud of funding for Youth Koori Court officially-opened at Dubbo LAST week marked the ceremonial opening of the Dubbo Youth Koori Court, which began its operations in March 2023. This significant mile-

can to improve the odds for impacted people. For Mr Johnson, this has meant pouring his energy into his cancer-fighting foundation Love Your Sister, which has raised nearly $20 million so far for cancer research, and is focused on providing precision medicine for all cancer patients no matter where they live. I was thrilled to learn more about the work of Love Your Sister and was so pleased to hear about their intention to extend their focus to areas like Dubbo and the far west. I’m excited to see what this incredible charity has in store for people in the Parkes electorate.

Free home internet for unconnected students I’M pleased to announce the School Student Broadband Initiative (SSBI) is now available, offering free home internet for up to one year for eligible unconnected families with school aged students.

Narromine Shire Council releases operational plan By ANDREW TARRY THE Narromine Shire Council has released their Operational Plan for 2023/24. The document is one of many plans and strategies that support the implementation of the Community Strategic Plan. The plan published by council states that the “Operational Plan 202324 incorporates the Operational Budget, Capital Works program and Fees and Charges for 202324. It has been prepared as a result of community consultation and their

preferences around the Delivery Program, prioritisation of capital works, agreed levels of service as well income and other external stakeholders”. The plan covers many aspects of the council’s roles and functions within the shire including overseeing the water and sewer funds, the provision of services to the community, and the waste charges and investment into infrastructure. The Operational Plan also outlines the rates and fees applicable to residents for the upcoming fi nancial year.

The sewer fund is budgeted for a surplus as well in 2023/24. The $425,355 surplus will be part of funds “being reserved for the capital works program. Major projects for 2023-24 include a treatment plant upgrade in

ĞƐĐƌŝƉƟŽŶ

The water fund is budgeted for a surplus of $25,294 for 2023/24 and “major projects for 2023/24 include concept and detailed design for a new water treatment plant, reservoir, and rising mains for Narromine ($1,050,000) and a new water pressure booster system for the northern zone -Narromine ($300,000).” As the council also manages the residential water consumption it provides the increase in charges for 2023/24.

Waste management is also an area in which the council has responsibility and “must make and levy an annual charge for the provision of domestic waste management services for each parcel of rateable land for which the service is available.” The council uses a tiered fee structure and argues that it is “the most effective method of

charging for domestic waste management and is designed to fully recover all costs incurred. Council has put forward a structure which includes a 2.72 per cent increase for Domestic Waste Management Charges for 2023/2024.” The domestic waste charges for 2023/24 yea include a 3.13 per cent increase.

Jesus wants us all, to take-up our own cross “WHOEVER wants to be my disciples, must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the Gospel, will save it.” (Mark 8:34–35). Christ’s followers, aren’t always considered “normal”. Instead of cursing, they praise Jesus. Instead of getting into fights, they turn the other cheek. Christians often stand out in a crowd, and people might think they are a little weird. Sometimes, it’s downright hard to fit in. But that’s a good thing. Jesus didn’t fit in. He did things differently than the religious leaders of his time. And he certainly confused the Romans who were in charge of the country. Some people called him crazy. Some people called him rebellious. Some people called him the Devil! But God called him, Jesus His Son. Jesus said that following him requires sacrifice. We might be deemed weird or strange. We might have to walk in a path that leads us away from what others are doing. It will be hard sometimes. And it may feel lonely. But Jesus lived that way, so we could look at His example. Jesus asks each of us to take up our own cross and follow him. Are you all ready? It won’t be ordinary. “A furious storm came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, ‘Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?’.” (Mark 4:37–38) How can Jesus sleep through such dangerous chaos? This is what the Disciples thought when a furious storm crashed over their boat. How could Jesus possibly be sleeping through it? Didn’t he care? Imagine a half-asleep Jesus struggling to his feet in the rocking and rolling boat. He stands up and says to the storm,”Quiet!” The Disciples wondered what kind of a man could actually do that. What kind of a man can command the weather to obey him? It was almost too difficult to, too hard, to believe. This story is to let us know that Jesus is more powerful than any storm. We all go through storms, or at least difficult times, in our lives. So we don’t need to be afraid of a single thing, for the God of the universe is always on our side. Prayer: When the storms blow in our lives, we know that you, Lord, are just so powerful. And we thank you Lord, Jesus, that we can always take-up our cross and follow you. Please guide and protect us always Lord, Amen. By THE REVEREND BRIAN SCHMALKUCHE, ANGLICAN DIOCESE OF BATHURST

ST Augustine’s Parish School students love to read so much that the whole school is now participating in the ‘3@3’ reading program. Photos by St Augustine’s Parish School. This term at St Augustine’s, the whole school is participating in ‘3@3’ - three days a week, at three o’clock, we are reading in groups of three. Some students are reading extension novels, and some are reading decodable books. What students have to say about 3@3: 3@3 compliments our 8.30-8.50am Morning Reading Program, which supports many students to reach their fluency goals. We know that the more fluent a reader becomes, the greater their ability to comprehend what is being read. To quote Dr. Seuss — “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go”. At St Augustine’s we aim to go a long way

Dreyshon gets an early start at Sydney Uni pre-study program GETTING an early start is always a good thing, with Narromine High School student, Dreyshon McKellar, recently taking-part in a pre-study program at one of our best centres of learning. Dreyshon was among dozens of Year 12 students from across the country who embarked on an exciting five-day program at the University of Sydney that was designed to build their educational confidence and motivation and to prepare them for higher education. The Tahgara (winter) residential program, is part of the University’s commitment to increase the participation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in tertiary learning. This year’s program attracted the highest number of students since it began in 2014; with 17-year old Dreyshon attesting to its success. “It gave me a very open mind about university; after fi nishing school, I’m looking forward to doing educational or social work,” he enthused. “My favourite part of the program, was meeting all the people from all across Australia,” he added. During the week, Dreyshon and the other students attended workshops to guide them through exam preparation, scholarship applications, and university pathways, and also experienced one-on-one tutoring in their chosen subjects. As well, the students received advice and support

A highlight of the week was hearing from renowned Indigenous soprano/composer and Sydney Conservatorium of Music Elizabeth Todd Chair of Vocal Studies, Professor Deborah Cheetham Fraillon.

“Imagine what the adult version of you could be; how will you influence the life of others?” Prof Cheetham Fraillon said. “How will you make the world that you live in, better?” she added. The students, she told them, could all do so much for their society and peoples. “Imagine your adult self, as being someone of value in the community, to your family, to those you love, to the person in the street you meet for the fi rst time,” she said.

“Imagine your adult-selves at the University of Sydney.” The week-long course was all about improving accessibility to university for First Nations peoples, Pro Vice-Chancellor, Indigenous (Academic), Professor Jennifer Barrett, added. “We were delighted to have high school students from around the country on campus, which stands on lands that have been a place of knowledge exchange for tens of thousands of years,” Prof Barrett said.

“It was great to see students get the most out of the week through hands-on support from expert tutors, academics, and support staff, and, of course, to also enjoy themselves, build new friendships, and be inspired by a taste of university life,” she added. The Tahgara and Gadalung (summer) programs form part of the University’s multiple outreach and transition programs to improve accessibility to tertiary education. Other initiatives include the Gadigal early offers program, which saw a 34 per cent increase in offers in 2022 compared to 2021. In 2022, the University launched the Extended Bachelors Program, which includes an additional year of study to support Indigenous students who have experienced disrupted educational histories. “While the number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students enrolling and succeeding at Sydney is increasing, we need to do much more nationally to change the statistics for participation in higher education,” Prof Barrett explained. “Continuing and enhancing our high school outreach and transition programs, entry pathways and scholarship offerings, are key to working towards parity across our student community and supporting students to participate in and thrive at university,” she concluded.

Sport CHRISTIE AND HOOD CASTLEREAGH LEAGUE ROUND 11

Bears growl, Magpies ruffle, Swans wing it and Terriers still yapping! By BRYSON LUFF THE Narromine Jets have now learnt a lesson that has been taught to many, many teams in the past, that lesson being that silencing the Coonamble Bears on their home patch is quite a difficult assignment, irrespective of where the Grizzlies might be located on the competition ladder! Going into the match Coonamble had registered just one win for the season, but come full-time, that number had doubled after they downed the Jets 38-30 much to the delight of their red and black army! The loss by the Jets, combined with the Baradine Magpies holding the Cobar Roosters to a 30-all draw in the ‘Battle of the Feathers’ at Baradine has added to what will be tense race to the fi nals with just three rounds to play, with every fi rst-grade game to be played over the coming three weekends having the potential to greatly influence the final composition of the top five! The draw with the Magpies has relegated the Cobar Roosters to third position on the ladder and sets up an epic battle with the Dunedoo Swans at Dunedoo this weekend. The Swans just managed to get over the top of the Coonabarabran Unicorns in Coonabarabran, winning by just two points in a hard-fought contest, with the vital three competition points that they picked leapfrogging them over the Roosters into outright second position. The remaining game, played at Gulgong’s Billy Dunn Oval in front of a very supportive Terrier crowd, who were enjoying the Gulgong club’s centenary celebrations, witnessed the Gilgandra Panthers score the fi rst points in the game in the fi fth minute, as well the fi nal points in the match with three minutes remaining however, the intervening 72 minutes belonged to the home side as was evidenced on the scoreboard which read 30-10 at full-time. This was not the Terrier’s tidiest of performances for the season, but it was more than enough for them to see off the Panther’s Boronia Cup Challenge and for them to retain their unbeaten status. The win has all but assured them of gaining the minor premiership, but they would be ill advised to try and coast into the semi-finals in their remaining three competition games, beginning this weekend when they will be hosting a Coonamble Bears outfit that will be buoyed by their victory over the Jets last Saturday! Following that game the Terriers will have a testing road trip to Baradine before play-

In other games this weekend, Narromine will be hoping to get back into the winner’s list after back-to-back losses to Gulgong then Coonamble, when the Baradine Magpies pay them a visit at Cale Oval. The Magpies are a young and enthusiastic side with a ‘never say die’ attitude and this game presents itself as an attractive fi xture with much to be lost by the Jets and equally much to be gained by the Magpies. To accommodate rugby union games at the same ground on the same day, the reserve grade game will kick off at 10.30am, followed by league tag and then the big fi rst grade game with an expected kick off around 1pm. The match of the round will be played at Dunedoo, with the second placed Swans are at home to the Cobar Roosters who are currently third on the congested competition ladder, but they have the opportunity to reclaim second position if they can get over the top of the Swans at Robertson Oval. The remaining game will see Gilgandra at home to the Binnaway Bombshells. The Panthers will be out to erase the memory of their 34 to 30 loss to the Bombshells at The Crater in round three, a loss that is still having repercussions for them in their battle to stay in the semi-fi-

nal race. The Coonabarabran Unicorns will enjoy picking up the competition points courtesy of the bye this weekend before resuming their crack at a semi-fi nal berth when they host Gilgandra in round 13!

GOLF CLUB NOTES

GERRIES GOLF NOTES

Rob Williams is the Cool win for “Maso”; in a Club Champion, bracing day’s golf for second-year running, after close contest By NORM LEWIS

RATHER cold conditions last Wednesday for the weekly Gerries Golf ninehole competition, limited the playing field to some 10 diehard and very hardy golfers. The scores returned, also indicated that it was not very nice weather for being on the course, with the winner on the day, Brian Masling, at least fi nding the conditions to his liking, with a score of 23 points. Second-place was a tie between Ross King and Mal Richardson who each scored 20 points; with Ross taking second-place on a count-back. Once again, there was no nearest-the-pin winner and, I am told, that there is now a total of seven new golf balls in the kitty. The NAGA “prize” went to Vince Ferrari on 10 points, though, here again, it appears as though the handicapper must be rather severe, as this is the second time in recent weeks, that the previous weekly winner, has collected the NAGA, at his next outing!

PLAYING consistent golf over the four competition rounds, Rob Williams has been crowned the Club Champion Golfer, for the second year in a row. Williams however, had a battle royal with Tony Harding over the four days of the event with Harding leading after 18 holes with a fi ne score of five-under 65. He also still led after 36 holes, despite a disastrous 73 (three-over) in the second round. Williams was only two behind after the fi rst two-days, but led by two after the third round with a tradesman-like, one-under 69. The fi nal round on Sunday, saw Williams retain his lead with a fine two-under 68, for a combined three-under par total of 277. Harding had a one-under round on Sunday, which left him in second place with par figures of 280 for the 72 holes of Championship play. Congratulations to Rob Williams on his second successive Club Singles Championship, carding rounds of 69, 71, 69, and 68, for a total of 277. Harding held-on for second with a total of 280. Unfortunately though, he did not play consistently in his second and third rounds; with “Boy George” carding rounds of 65, 73, 73, and 69, for his par-for-the-course fi nal score. Williams also won the 72 hole nett event in A-Grade, with a total of 281 with Alex Sambrook taking second-place in the nett event with a score of 286. In the B-Grade Championship for the 72 holes, Greg Kearines was a comfortable winner with rounds of 84, 87, 86, and 86, for a total score of of 243. Runner-up in this division, was Steve Buckley on a total score of 359 (comprising rounds of 90, 93, 85, and 91). Kearines showed typical “Rooster”-like te-

In all, it was a good Championship event, despite the inclement weather over the four days of Championship play. The results of the daily events played in conjunction, are as follows: Saturday — 21 players in an 18-Hole Competition: First, Peter Gainsford; Second, Steve Buckley. For Nearest-the-Pins, on the third, Blake Richardson; on the 10th, Blake Richardson. For the Long Drive, on the eighth, Mitch Smith; Monthly Medals, in A-Grade, Rob Williams; in B-Grade, Peter Gainsford; on the Jackpot Hole, the 17th, Peter Gainsford. Sunday — 20 players in an 18-Hole Competition: First, Jason McPherson on 69 with a count-back from Rob Williams. For Nearest-the-Pins, on the ninth, Rob Williams; the 17th, Steve Squires; and the Long Drive, Ryan Richardson; with the Jackpot Hole not won. Matchplay Results also had Ryan Richardson defeating Steve Buckley by 2-1. In coming events, on Saturday, July 29, a 4-BBB nine-hole, with Vets in conjunction with. On Sunday, July 30, an Individual Stableford will be played with the Junior Clinic at 9am. In other news, the Albert Annual Open Tournament for Veterans Golf, will be on Thursday, August 3; an 18-Hole Stableford for both men and women to hit-off at 9am. Congratulations to all the Championship winners, and thanks again to the volunteers who had the course in top-condition, despite the weather. That’s all for this week — See you at the 19th!

One Pool Game was subsequently played between Chis Harding and Bob Fletcher against Terry Willis and Greg Kearines. Before the match though, there was a late-comer who was claimed by Ross King as a partner, and you should have heard the comments from the gallery! Greg and Terry played and won their match to claim the title of “Pool Champs” for the week. Ross King then claimed Norm Lewis as a partner, and they challenged the champs to a match. This caused considerable comment about coming late, so you could reach the fi nal. All was forgotten when King and Lewis easily defeated Kearines and Willis in what was called “a friendly match” (ha, ha)! The next Gerries Game was set-down for Wednesday, July 26, with the results to appear in the next edition of the Star. A reminder to all Veteran Golfers, however, the Annual WDVGA Narromine Veterans Open is being played on Thursday, August 3. That’s all for another week — See you at the 19th!

RACING NG ORT REPORT

Gallagher rides five winners at Warren

By COLIN HODGES CLAYTON Gallagher rode five winners at the Warren TAB meeting on Tuesday, July 18 with the Robb family being very much involved in the final leg of the momentous feat. For a major part of his apprenticeship Gallagher was apprenticed to Rodney Robb at Nyngan with Rodney’s son Brett Robb being the stable foreman. Brett Robb has since become a leading trainer at Dubbo and Clayton Gallagher who also moved to Dubbo is usually the fi rst-choice jockey for the stable. After riding winners for David Smith (I Like Big Putts, $6.50), Michael Mulholland (Jet Empress, $3 to $1.95 favourite), Garry Lunn (Raiding, $6.50 to $4.60 favourite) and Luke Pepper ((Powderfi nger, $3.70), Clayton Gallagher had the chance to ride five winners at a meeting for the fi rst time when mounting Hardly The End for the 1000 metres benchmark 58 handicap. The Brett Robb-trained Hardly The End was resuming from a spell while the top weight in the 12 horse field was the Rodney Robb trained Hurn Court, winner of the last two starts at Walgett and Nyngan. Luckyimwithaimee and Laffing Waters led at the top of the straight with Hardly The End then getting a rails run while Hurn Court (Michael Heagney) was fi nishing well on the outside. Heagney and Gallagher are very strong jockeys and their mounts responded to fight out a tremendous fi nish with Hardly The End ($4.60 favourite) prevailing by a half head over Hurn Court ($14) which had an extra three kilogram handicap to carry, while Mamelon (Andrew Banks, $9) was almost two lengths away in third place. Overall, Clayton Gallagher had six rides at the meeting for five wins and a fi fth pacing on Wandering Jack ($2.50 favourite) which had every chance in the 1200 metres Maiden Handicap won by the Clint Lundholm, Dubbo trained Skyforger.. Hemmed on the fence turning for home, Skyforger ($4.60) was eased around heels by talented apprentice Ronald Simpson and raced to a two lengths win over Bijara (Kody Nestor, $19) and The Percentage (Andrew Banks, $9.50). Ronald Simpson went close to a winning double when his mount Demeurer came with a strong run from the tail of the field in the 1400 metres Benchmark 58 Handicap to figure in a four-way photo fi nish. Bursting through the pack from midfield, the Jane Clement, Armidale trained Hombre Grande (Chelsea Hillier, $9) won by a head from Demeurer ($6) with Aisle Six (Shayleigh Ingelse, $9) a half neck away third and the leader Ringside a close fourth.

Pracey-Holmes returns with a winning double SIDELINED for two months, Jake Pracey-Holmes was back doing what he does best when riding a winning double, Twin Seas and Aesthete, on Saturday, July 22 at Coonabarabran. Referring to the time spent as a labourer during his suspension, the likeable Pracey-Holmes quipped, “there is more money being a jockey than working on the end of a shovel”. Displaying his renowned alertness at the barriers, Pracey-Holmes jumped his mount straight to the front from the outside gate and the Clint Lundholm, Dubbo-trained Twin Seas ($4.40 to $3.90) thereafter led through-

out for a three lengths win over Our Armistice (Will Stanley, $7) and Freedom To Dream (Billy Cray, $14) in the 900 metres Imperial Hotel-It’s A Boy Maiden Handicap. Tamworth trainer Cody Morgan supplied the other winner for Jake Pracey-Holmes, Aesthete in the 1600 metres Imperial Hotel-Up The Kookas Class One and Maiden Plate. Taking the lead from Augusta Miss at the 800 metres, Aesthete ($2.15 favourite) won by three lengths from Cheeky Secrets (Andrew Banks, $4.60) and Glenfield Fox (Shayleigh Ingelse, $26). Local gallopers invariably go well at Coonabarabran meetings and such was the case with the Wayne Martyn-trained Missile Moove in the 1200 metres Imperial Hotel-Have A Schooner In Coona Maiden Plate. Raced by Wayne Martyn and Tim Evans from Coonabarabran and Mick Baker,

Missile Moove ($4.40) was well ridden by apprentice Jake Barrett when coming from last to beat Heza Wise Guy (Tony Cavallo, $10) and The Percentage (Andrew Banks, $2.40 fav.). Formerly from England, 23-year-old apprentice Cobi Vitler recorded the third winner of his so far short career, aboard the Rod Northam, Scone-trained Fabulous Choice in the 1200 metres Imperial Hotel-Happy Birthday Chimp Benchmark 50 Handicap. Close to the leaders and needing an opening turning for home, Fabulous Choice ($2.40 fav.) eventually worked clear and scored by a short head from Turgenev (Andrew Banks,$9) with two lengths to the third placed Leviticon (Wendy Peel, $25). Another apprentice to land a winner was Shayleigh Ingelse on the Allan Kehoe, Scone trained Bring The Rabble in the 900 metres Imperi-

al Hotel-Sam’s The Man Class Three Handicap.

Leading all the way, Bring The Rabble ($3.60 to $2.80 fav.) had over a length to spare at the fi nish from Super Hot (Wendy Peel, $10) and Casan Geal (Will Stanley, $61).

Stepping up to TAB company after a close third to Gossip in the Wean Picnic Cup, the Bryan Dixon Jnr, Gilgandra-trained Beg Me beat a big field in the 1600 metres Imperial Hotel-Jakki Brady Benchmark 50 Handicap at Coonabarabran.

Travelling midfield on the rails, Beg Me ($14) skilfully ridden by Tony Cavallo, ran home strongly to win by a half-length from Aisle Six (Shayleigh Ingelse, $4.80) with Costas (Jake Barrett, $26) two lengths away third.

Coonabarabran will next race with their cup meeting in October.

Ladies win, but Coonamble grounds Jets; with “Super Saturday” this week

“Grrr!” Narromine Gorillas dominate at CSU, Bathurst

Narromine Jets Ladies League Tag side travelled to Coonamble on the weekend, with another great result from a side playing with commitment and spirit. PHOTO: SUPPLIED. By MICK BURNS NARROMINE Jets travelled to Coonamble to take-on the Bears on Saturday, hoping to comeaway with two wins to cement their spots in the top three of their respective ladders. However, it was only the welldrilled and committed Ladies League Tag side, that cameaway victorious. The girls are playing some great footy as a team, which is a fantastic reflection of their commitment and attitude at training. Co-coaching by Kodi and Lily, also has the Ladies confident that they can go deep into the play-off series at the business-end of the season. The Jets League Tag side scored a comprehensive win over the Bears by 52-4 with tries from Shian Chatfield (three), as well as Rebecca Smyth, Emily Edwards, Lily Spackman, Beth Clarke, and Jacarna Powell. Watching the girls bag tries is always great to see, but it is their effort in defence, that is setting-up the wins for the team, as they are all working hard together and making the effort to not let each other down; this great team spirit should help them achieve their goals in the semi-fi nals. Great games were had by all the girls, with special mention to Lily who led the team well in the absence of injured co-coach, Kodi. Bec Smyth also had another big game and was ably-supported by Emily Edwards and Jacarna Powell with Kelsea Phillips and Abbie Mitchell also making some good breaks on the edges. The First Grade Jets also arrived at Coonamble confident of a win in coming-up against a team that had one victory to their name this year. However, complacency and a lack of positive attitude in a few players, compounded with some

lazy efforts in attack and defence, allowed the Bears to be in control for the full 80 minutes. In some bright spots in the match, no-one was better than back-rower, Luke Thompson who, since returning from injury, has shown some top form. Darby Gordon was also safe at fullback and is becoming a great addition to First Grade. Harry McPherson also cameoff the bench at hooker and added some spark and energy to the team, while Tyrell Charters had a strong game on the edges. Big Alex Sambrook and Jordan Richardson were also their usual workhorses throughout the match. Unfortunately for the Jets, though, this loss drops the team to outright fourth on the ladder, making the remaining games against both Baradine and Cobar very important if they are to fi nish in the top-three at the end of the season. For the Jets from now on, all the hard-work will need to start again this week at training and, hopefully, the boys can get back on the winners’ list. On that front, this week at Cale Oval is “Super Saturday” with both the local League and Union sides playing on the same day. In the 13-a-side game, the Jets come-up against the Baradine Magpies in all three grades with Reserve Grade starting the day off at 10.30am. The Club will also be celebrating their “Women In League” round with the Ladies League Tag side wearing specially-designed jerseys to thank all of our female participants and volunteers involved at our club. There will also be a raffle, with all proceeds going to Macquarie Home Stay. So come-on down to Cale Oval, and support the mighty Jets and Gorillas in five games of great footy for the day!

By GINNI BROWN NARROMINE Gorillas produced a strong showing in Bathurst over the weekend taking big wins in both grades. Also, having two full teams with reserves, allowed both grades to play to their potential away from home. The Seconds showed why they are on top of the Ladder, with all players turning-in a strong performance with “super prop”, and club stalwart, Charlie Tuck even having a run. The scoreline showed the ease with which the Boys steamrolled their opposition with a 112-0 drubbing. In the best player voting, three points went to Ruben Gill, two points to Jeremy Montgomery, with Nic Lye earning the one point. This result has left Second Grade now clear on the points scored tally, as Minor Premiers going into the last round

this weekend. In First Grade, the lads took some time to fi nd their rhythm, and were down by 12 -7 at half-time. In the second half, the focus was on discipline, structure, and earning the right to move forward. This commitment showed the type of rugby the team needs to play going into the fi nal rounds and the semi-fi nals. The fi nal result was a comfortable 45-19 win in an action-packed second-half. Special mention and huge congratulations go to the stand-out First Grade players in the game with player votes going three points to Braydon McManus; two points to Will Campbell; and one point to Dylan Ryan. On their return home, the Gorillas look forward to seeing their keen supporters at Cale Oval this weekend for “Super Saturday”; our combined round with the Narromine Jets Rugby League Club.

Consistency singles now at the semi-final stage By NORM BOHM

PHOTOS: PEDR CORDEROY.

MEMBERS are reminded again, that our celebrated GUB THORNE Day is fast-approaching, and those who haven’t nominated for this event to be held on Saturday, August 19, should really jump-in and do so, as there aren’t that many spots left. Cost for the day and all other information, can be found on the nomination sheet on the Club’s Noticeboard. In other news, the Final of the B-Grade singles was contested on Sunday afternoon, featuring Kane Adams and Henry Buttsworth. According to Mark “Extraordinaire Beaver”, it was a very good match with Henry just a tad too-good late in the game, eventually winning by 25-18. The Consistency Singles have also now reached semi-final status as a result of last weekend’s quarter-final matches, which resulted in wins for Duane Faro over Bruce Maher; “Boppers” Daley getting past Des Lincoln; “Beaver” Clark getting the nod over Ricardo Stanford; and, in what was the tightest encounter of the four matches, Phil Harding just prevailed 151-147 over Robbie Stanford. So, this weekend we will see just the two matches, one on Saturday featuring Phil Harding and James Daley, with the other game to be played on Sunday morning between Ben Clark and Duane Faro. These should be a couple of interesting tussles, so viewers should best get those window seats early! Social Bowls this week saw “Mother Na-

ture” co-operating beautifully for both Thursday and Sunday, so much so that we got pretty good numbers for both days. On the Thursday, Carl Moore and Greg Wright were the pick of the bunch; with Des Lincoln, Bob Christoff, and Bill Wilkie also earning the consolation prize for their good win; slightly behind Carl and Greg. Sunday morning’s “chook run” resulted in a win for the trio of Ross Wallace, Clifton Harris, and Ben Clark. In some exciting news, Narromine Bowling Club will be hosting the Reserve Fours Championships as part of the Zone Four Championship roster, with the event taking place over the weekend of September 2–3. This should be a great opportunity for members to jump-in and have a go; providing they are qualified to do so. This requires players to have an open gender pennant grade of 05 or below, or are ungraded, to be eligible to take part in this format of the Zone Fours Championships. The nomination sheet is on the Noticeboard, and players can nominate by fi lling-in the form and giving Rick or James the entry fee; only $40 per team. For those wanting to take-part in the Zone Four Men’s Pennants which commences in early August, a nomination sheet has again been posted on the Club’s Noticeboard for those interested in being part of our eight-man squad. Well that’s it for me this week, a pretty quiet one but, no doubt still plenty of action coming up at the “Bowly”; hope you can be part of it!
