Confusing to say the least. Race times are quoted where the race is run not where it is watched. The Hobartville Stakes was in fact Race 6 at Rosehill (Sydney) and was run at 4 pm and not 2pm EST or 3pm if viewed in Brisbane. It was won by a horse called “Dissident”. There was a flock of Straw-necked Ibis on the course and no gulls I could see. Does this help – probably not!
