  1. i bred from 3 mares (all have different ownership). The way the subsidy was set up I missed out of the subsidy. We have decided not to bred the upcoming breeding season as we bred every second year, We may not bred again as the subsidy has left us a little upset
  2. Is there a new Breeding incentive. The one they had this season just made me upset as I missed out (and i bred from three mares). I am probably only going to bred from one mare this time as a protest
  3. Wasn't Matty A impressive on Thursday. I think he is going all the way to the top. Love his breeding being by Dream Vacation and going back to Tussle He is a lot larger than most standardbreds and looks like he has a big motor. It is hard to believe that he goes back to tussle as most horses going back to her have been small.
  4. Why are trainers with horses not supporting theses races Michelle Wallis did not nominate any of her trotters for the FFA at Cambridge. Probably only needed one for this race to happen. You got $437.50 for just starting plus the top trotters are not there, so you may even have a chance of winning Arna Donnelly could have transferred some of her horses to the race against Copy that at Auckland. Those horses had to race off long marks in other races. I think you get over $1000 for just starting in that race.
  5. What I don't understand is how the clubs are bias to the pacers. When they are short of horses they make up the races with trotters, but when they have plenty of horses they make up the extra races with pacing races. The small owners like myself now bred trotters as I think (and maybe other small owners)we can compete against the bigger stables.
  6. May struggle against the grey mare this Friday
  7. Any reason why Wallis and Dickie did not nominate any trotters. They could have two extra trot races with their trotters.
  8. Changing the subject - do you think growth hormones are being used in NZ to give an advantage to horses racing in age races. From what I know it is very hard to test for. One of the side effects is an oversize heart in some cases
  9. Stacy Whatuira should have got a ban instead. There was obviously something wrong with her horse, yet she kept pushing it
  10. He is doing a much better job than Auckland Reactor who had a much bigger crop

    Addington

    Why are there no emergencies at Addington this week. You would think they would want maximum numbers for there meeting
  12. How is the new handicap system fair. Sertorius wins his first start and goes to a R60 class. He has to enter the higher class race, while horses that have won lot of races can start of 30m in a maiden race. It just makes it too hard for young horses with ability. You will find horses with ability being sold overseas at a greater rate leaving poor horses competing in NZ.
  13. I have got a horse at Oamaru in that race and was looking forward to see if we could beat Kelly.
