No assertion of notability since the article was tagged in April 2007. Google searches turned up naught. I assume it's either a non-notable event, or at worst, a hoax. Eliz81 19:00, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete, just plain non-notable. Lack of GHits only proves non-notability. Ten Pound Hammer • (((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps))) 20:23, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. There are some sources for donkey racing events in Queensland as part of rodeos see Google News Archive. [1]. However, there are no sources verifying the contents of this article which seems to be a hoax. The town of Buggerup referred to in the article is a clear indicator.

  • Delete Per nom and ors. Nothing seems to be sourcable to substanciate the article. Thewinchester (talk) 01:29, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete Non-notable and mentions of Buggerup, Thorog-bred and Grayne-bred all point to a hoax article.--Melburnian 01:43, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, if it's not a hoax, then it certainly isn't notable anyway. Lankiveil 02:57, 15 July 2007 (UTC).
  • Delete, while the subject is real, it doesnt jump out as something worthy of mention; and the article appears to be a hoax. John Vandenberg 08:18, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete if not speedy per nom. No sources, could be a hoax per Capitalroadster's reasons. --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 13:59, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete from ABC rural :The race involves a shot of tequila, a cup of baked beans, a sombrero and poncho, then hanging on to an unsaddled donkey as it races across the finish line. Sounds like a social club event to me!Garrie 22:38, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
