As the interested owner/breeder of a maiden horse nominated for this meeting in Race 5 1200 M maiden that has a rating of 51, I was suprised that at this stage she does not make the field of 14.
However looking at the field the first few are rating 45 horses that I assume were balloted from another meeting so obviously that will be a technique used by astute people to jump way ahead of their rating in future to get a start?
My beef is that we should be number 13 not 15!
#13 Forgetz has had 5 starts for 0ne 2nd and 4 unplaced runs & $2000 stakes; #14 Ciciolina has had 6 starts for two 3rds and 4 unplaced runs $1750 in stakes and Pearl Davone has had 6 starts for one 2nd, one 3rd, two 4ths and only 2 unplaced runs and $3850 in stakes.
So how do they rate the horses on the same rating?
But wow over 40 horses nominated so how many in the pipeline that owners are paying training fee's for and no opportunity to race....
