barryb 2,064 Report post Posted March 17, 2016 There is always a fair degree of comment on here about Te Rapa and other tracks that play poorly. Sorry Ted but Te Aroha is the WORST track in the country to watch racing at, its so predictable as to the outcome of the race. Must be in the first few turning or zero chance. The bias is so bad its not funny, finding something thats going to lead is the hard part. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee wiz, you have given me hope! A horse I am involved with was 4 lengths off the 2nd last horse at one stage and from there sustained a run around the field, flew down the outside and just missed 3rd by two noses. What's more the race was only 1200m! Maybe it will make the grade after all! Ashoka 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
