This is true there are bad eggs in every Indio but that’s why we need harsh penalties to eliminate then from coming back

Pretty light sentence for something that bad really ?

Agree its a joke they run with a 4 horse after it was said the wouldn’t run with less than 5. But it is clearly the trainers fault mainly due to the fact they think can’t compete . A lot of trainers seem to only line up once in a blue moon yet they’ll go workout week after week. It’s almost as if they won’t line up incase they run down the track or owners getting angry they aren’t winning but a lot of the time owners just want the chance to race and can understand that the horses aren’t always going to win but there’s always chance to win money if your in the field. Trainers need to stop worrying so much about there personal udr or look and line horses for their owners to see them race. For a lot of owners it’s not so much about the money it’s the excitement of having one race

Their too busy trying to sort comments for the massive Auckland fields this Friday haha

That photo clearly shows it’s mainly Blair oranges slowness he’s the leading horse so should be the first up to the tape he waited to long and then got left behind, there was more then enough room for Blair to roll up as the rest of ge wider runners did but he or his horse didn’t want to move up. When you draw one turning in you should never back as far as he was

Cambridge shouldn’t even race, not just because of Covid because of the terrible stakes and shit facilities they have

That problem is gone but you will probably still see them program a lot of back to back meetings silly decisions where horses can’t go both meeting for the sake of one day spacing

The racing dates have needed to be seriously looked at for far to long especially in the north . Far to many times you’ll have Cambridge Thursday then manawatu the following Tuesday Thursday then Cambridge the week after . Stops a lot of horses traveling to both clubs

Cambridge is lucky the have the dog track to allow for dual code meeting

Much better racing at Auckland in winter than Cambridge

With stakes sounding like dropping across the board what will Cambridge race for they now as were already offering poor stakes , Auckland stakes will stop considerably but I’m guessing it’ll still going to be more than what Cambridge was before this virus . In saying that they should have a nice nest egg left after only paying 80% of there funding out to stakes

And yet the noms are still left open why they don’t just make cut off later rather than every week extended them is beyond me

He’s shocking

Corona virus had struck their barns maybe

A lot of trainers are to protective of there horses and owners and will go trials and workouts instead of races Incase they run down the track . A lot of the time owners just want to see their horse race win lose or draw its an event for them trainers no willing to line up horses more regularly are costing the owners a chance to enjoy racing

I don’t think all stars sacrifice one and stop for the sake of the others , sure they hand up to each other but they don’t use one a the sacrifice horse like tommy Lincoln was reminds me of the the classic type years ago with awesome Ambro in the ffa when it’s only job it get attack and stop

Poutama the new p butcher

A few starts were very questionable weather a false start could’ve been called ,hard to attract punters or new people when some starts are as bad as they were

40mins gaps don’t help keep people there

Because it’s trainers or owners colour are allowed now

Wouldn’t they have been better to combine both days into one big day with full feilds ? Back to back days as the same venue with their main race card only having 7 races ?

Surely the club would be disappointed with crowd yesterday compared to what they have received if it was run on grass?

To be fair it doesn’t matter what you do during the race it’s where you are at the post that counts, tiger went super but the winner just went better when it counted

I think it’s good if they have it once a month mix it up abit so it’s not the same old boring stuff week in week out

Who would want to come north for the chance to driver maybe once a week at best with small feilds and not many meetings there’s not real incentive for any South Island junior to move
