XXXX Gold $150,000 Golden Nugget 4Yo Championship Wednesday 7 December 2005 XXXX Gold $150,000 Golden Nugget 4yo Championship History The Golden Nugget Championship began in February 1981 when the Victorian visitor Justin Hanover won for trainer/driver Tony Peacock. The WA Trotting Association had identified a gap in the national programme for a 4yo Championship and, similar to their innovation in running the first Australian Derby, set about attracting the best 4yos in the nation to Perth. To add to the uniqueness of the race the trophy always incorporated a Gold Nugget. The initial concept was for an elite field of eight heat winners only with four heats held on a Friday night and a further four heats on the following Tuesday before the Final on the Friday night. Over time that concept has changed due to a fall off in numbers of elite 4yos but that hasn’t stopped the Golden Nugget of continuing to showcase the nations best rising stars and the honour roll contains some of the greatest names seen in the past 25 years. Who will ever forget the awesome performance of Tasmanian owned Sinbad Bay in 1989 in setting a National 2500 metre record as he demolished the strongest Golden Nugget field ever assembled. The ten-horse field that year included six representatives from the Eastern States including the likes of Jodies Babe, Rowleyalla, Another Bart and the locally trained Manageable. The NSW sensation Westburn Grant overcame the infamous airline strike in late 1989 to show just why he was rated the best 4yo in the nation although he failed dismally in the WA Pacing Cup a month later. He was to return to Perth twice more to win a couple of WA Pacing Cup crowns. Only the locally trained Saab has been able to emulate the feat of winning a Golden Nugget and WA Pacing Cup and he went one better than Westburn Grant in that he won both races as a 4yo. Even the almighty Village Kid couldn’t win both Group Ones as a 4yo for while he beat the best in the Cup he was unplaced in the Nugget a month after his dramatic Pacing Cup win. No trainer has ever been able to dominate the Nugget as they have some of the other classics on the local calendar and this demonstrates just how hard a race this is to win. Local trainers Greg Harper and Trevor Warwick each won the Nugget twice in successive years and ace Victorian trainer Bob Knight with his son Vin at the reins won the race in successive years in 1988 and 1989. The due had been runners-up in 1987 when Alpine Fella finished second to local Vero Prince. Chris Lewis and Trevor Warwick share the drivers records for the Nugget with a trio of wins apiece. Warwick won behind Slick Vance for Victorian trainer Reg Trevean in 1995 in addition to his owner runners’ success with Yarracoola and Morano Magic in 1984 and 1985. Lewis’s three wins came behind Vero Prince (1987), Flashing Star (1994) and Saab in 1998. The Nugget has proved very lucrative for Eastern States trainers with 12 of the 25 runnings having been won by “foreigners” including three of the past five. At one stage Eastern States trained horses won five successive Nuggets. Remarkable among these were the wins of Admiral Holliday which travelled to Perth by road when his trainer/driver Bryan Rogers couldn’t afford the costs of flying the horse to WA. Page 1 of 8 Wednesday 7 December 2005 Trainer/driver Ted Demmler had flight problems of a different kind the next year when his flight was delayed in Melbourne and he arrived at Gloucester Park as the horses were in the parade ring about to go onto the track. 4YO GOLDEN NUGGET CHAMPIONSHIP Year Winner Trainer Driver Rate 1981* JUSTIN HANOVER A Peacock A Peacock 2:01.1 1982 SINN FEIN G D Harper G D Harper 2:02.4 1983 CLASSIC GARRY G D Harper F R Kersley 1:59.9 1984 YARRACOOLA T B Warwick T B Warwick 2:00.2 1985 MORANO MAGIC T B Warwick T B Warwick 2:00.7 1986 VANDERPORT D F Murphy Ms A Frawley 2:02.5 1987 VERO PRINCE A C Lewis A C Lewis 2:01.9 1988 OUR MAESTRO R V Knight V J Knight 1:58.9 1989 SINBAD BAY R V Knight V J Knight 1:57.5 1989** WESTBURN GRANT V W Frost V W Frost 1:58.8 1991 ADMIRAL HOLLIDAY NZ B A Rogers B A Rogers 1:59.3 1992 IMPRESSIONIST NZ T E Demmler T E Demmler 1:59.5 1993 VALLEY CHAMP D T Parr G E Hall 1:59.9 1994 FLASHING STAR C L Cummins A C Lewis 1:57.4 1995 SLICK VANCE NZ R Trevean T B Warwick 1:58.7 1995 BEEFY T NZ J P Green R J Chambers 2:01.0 1996 MON POPPY DAY R J Chambers R J Chambers NTT 1997 SALINGER F R Kersley F R Kersley 2:01.3 1998 SAAB R A Olivieri A C Lewis 1:58.8 1999 COUNTESS KALA NZ N J Keiley L B Harper 2:00.0 2000 SEELSTER SAM NZ D W Wilson D W Wilson 1:58.7 2001 MANIFOLD BAY G K Crane G Lang 1:58.8 2002 TRICKY VIC NZ M G Reed M B Reed 2:00.4 2004 TE KANARAMA G Watts G Watts 1:59.8 2005 TARTARY GLADIATOR K F Keys K F Keys 1:59.1 * Held January/February from 1981 – 1989, 1991 – 1995, 2004 - ** Held November/December 1989, 1995 - 2002 Getting a start in the 2005 Golden Nugget The WATA has boosted the stakemoney for the December 2005 edition from $100,000 to $150,000.

  • Common Name Jakfruit Carambola Papaya Longan
    Sheet1 Height X Minimum Size COMMON NAME Botanical Name VARIETY Description Width Temp avail An exquisite fruit that is very closely related to the Cherimoya. The fruit are typically baseball- to softball-size, and they taste like sugary sweet custard. The pulp comes apart in segments, each THAI-LESSARD containing a small black seed that separates easily from the fruit. The trees begin to fruit at just one 3gal to two years of age, and they can easily be maintained at eight to ten feet. Coloured green fruit SUGAR APPLE Annona squamosa 10'X8' 28F weight (g/oz) 227-454/8-16. Aug-Nov Selected in Queensland, Australia. The tree is vigorous, with a dense and highly manageable canopy. With annual pruning the tree is easily maintained at a height and spread of 2 to 2.5 m (6.5 to 8.1 ft), with consistent, heavy production of 55 to 90 kg (120 to 200 lb) per tree. The fruit are medium-sized, averaging 6.7 kg (14.7 lb), with an edible flesh percentage of 35%. The exterior of the fruit is dark BLACK GOLD green and has sharp fleshy spines. The spines do not flatten, or “open” upon maturity, making it 3gal difficult to judge the proper harvest time and maturity. The deep orange flesh is soft, with a strong, sweet flavor and aroma. The flesh is easily removed from the fruit compared with other cultivars. JAKFRUIT Artocarpus heterophyllus 8'X6' 28F Sept-Dec Selected in Queensland, Australia.

Mangifera indica, cultivar identifi cation, SSR markers, mango breeding, parentage analysis ABSTRACT. Mango (Mangifera indica L.) germplasm can be classifi ed by origin with the primary groups being cultivars selected from the centers of diversity for the species, India and Southeast Asia, and those selected in Florida and other tropical and subtropical locations. Accessions have also been classifi ed by horticultural type: cultivars that produce monoembryonic seed vs. cultivars that produce polyembryonic seed. In this study we used 25 microsatellite loci to estimate genetic diversity among 203 unique mangos (M. indica), two M. griffi thii Hook. f., and three M. odorata Griff. accessions maintained at the National Germplasm Repository and by Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Miami, Fla. The 25 microsatellite loci had an average of 6.96 alleles per locus and an average polymorphism information content (PIC) value of 0.552 for the M. indica population. The total propagation error in the collection (i.e., plants that had been incorrectly labeled or grafted) was estimated to be 6.13%. When compared by origin, the Florida cultivars were more closely related to Indian than to Southeast Asian cultivars.

  • FAVORITE FRUIT TREES for SAN DIEGO by Tom Del Hotal
    FAVORITE FRUIT TREES FOR SAN DIEGO By Tom Del Hotal DECIDUOUS FRUIT Deciduous fruit trees often require a winter dormancy period where temperatures fall between 32 and 45 degrees F. in order to grow, flower and fruit properly. Varieties differ in the number of hours they require at these temperatures to overcome dormancy. The fruit trees listed under Column A have the lowest chilling requirements ( 0 - 300 hours) and should perform well in most areas of San Diego. The fruit trees listed under Column B have higher chilling requirements ( 300 - 500 hours ) and may not perform well in areas of very low chill ( less than 250-300 hours). Column A Column B COMMENTS APPLES Anna Beverly Hills Fuji Prune to central leader or modified central Dorsett Golden Pettingill Gordon leader shape. Dormant spray to control dormant Winter Banana Granny Smith diseases & overwintering insects. Some Winter Pearmain Mutsu varieties require pollinizers. Pink Lady APRICOTS EarliGold Floragold Autumn Royal Prune to open vase or modified open vase Gold Kist Katy shape. Fruit is produced on short lived fruiting Royal (Bleinheim) spurs. Dormant spray to control dormant diseases & overwintering insects. Do not dormant spray with lime-sulfur (calcium polysulfide) dormant sprays. CHERRIES Minnie Royal Two new sweet cherries that reportedly have Royal Lee lower chill requirements than most sweet cherries, 250 chill hours or less. Need both for cross pollination. Prune to open vase or modified open vase shape. Excellent fruit. FIGS Black Madeira Black Mission Roots are very invasive. Prune to control size.

  • CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2019-2020
    CITRUS BUDWOOD Annual Report 2019-2020 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services Bureau of Citrus Budwood Registration Ben Rosson, Chief We are now entering the 67th year of the Citrus Budwood Registration Program. And what a year it has been! Who would have thought that the simple things in life like going out to eat and family gatherings would have changed so much? The Budwood program has also changed over the past year with the addition of new employees, shifts in production and adopting department-wide updates in processes and procedures. Throughout the Covid 19 pandemic, we have been steadily working to ensure that we continue to provide uncompromised budwood and services while maintaining a safe, productive working environment for our employees while focusing on remaining the same in quality, controls and distribution. We were fortunate to be able to hire Dennis Connolly to oversee the new Chiefland seed source block on a daily basis to help ensure the success of the project and we harvested the first handful of seeds for the program. We are adding trees to the block as they are produced, and as new information comes in from researchers on promising varieties. Also this year, the first trees were planted in the LaCrosse Foundation backup facility with trees received from Chiefland and new releases from the program. There are currently over 100 trees planted in the facility with room for expansion as necessary. We are continually streamlining the collection and extraction process. We have been able to provide timely results to the industry while still maintaining the cleanup process for the multiple new introductions from within and outside of the State.
