Ginninderra Handicap No 338 on Tue 24/10/2011

Ginninderra Handicap No 338 on Tue 24/10/2011
In damp and miserable conditions only five runners turned up equalling the lowest total since 1983. Jeff Grey started last and passed the field to win (his third win) from Matt Hirzel and Phil Carruthers. Matt Hirzel's cheer squad turned up hoping that he would win his second handicap in a row, however he was narrowly defeated by Jeff Grey fresh from a sub 3hr marathon. Sam Spencer had his first run in the handicap and was pleased, on finishing, that this was the first time he had run continuously over a 7km distance. Who knows where the handicap will take you! Sue Hobson had a run in 1986 and 6 years later in 1992 she represented Australia in the Barcelona Olympics. With three prizes and 5 runners the odds of a prize were good.

Officials Simon Wall, Andrew Sutcliffe,
