Tailedoff 38 Report post Posted February 2, 2011 had a show of hands before our meeting yesterday more for then against our present S I selection policy yes not ALL CHCHtrainers were there you could always have another// get to gether let me see if I've got this straight..... you held a vote at a Southland meeting that was full of trainers whose dogs are racing at the meeting due to the actual selection policy in place? Do you not see a flaw in this method? It like asking a room full of turkeys if they want to vote on cancelling Christmas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhoundfever 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2011 To be frank the dogs racing at Invercargill Ms Hamilton are bloody useless as a rule thanks to this policy. If dogs deserve a start then they should get in, 3 starts a week or not, they do evry week up north. All the trainers in Canterbury need to do is boycott a couple of meetings down Sth then see how the Invercargill trainers like travelling 9 hrs to race because they certainly wont have enough local dogs to card a meeting!!

The Brown Bomber 1 Report post Posted February 2, 2011 whats that going to do how many trainers will stick by there word and i would be pretty positive that every canterbury trainer has a proplem with the policy but greyhoundfever good luck with your method it will rather work and crush the policy or you and the rest will fall flat on your faces.

I beg to disagree with you homebush reece Awesome bender genstia dogs our bewolf and plenty other good dogs went around, you sound like a child who has throwen all their goodies out of the cot, something does't go your way boycott. BLOODY GOOD WAY TO SORT the policy out. As for brown bomber's comment about over raced dogs it is a trainers right is it not to line a dog up as often as they like? It surely is a huge concern if this policy is to change were do these so called out of form dogs go? GAP can only take so many, the wastage would be huge but could not really see same of the greedy trainers really giving a S--t.

Iam a trainer from Canterbury and dont have a problem with the current system, the southland people need to be supported , they dont need to be travelling to Addington when they dont need to, same as Canterbury trainers travelling to Southland. The current system allows most dogs to get starts at least once a week, and you will find a few dogs will gain a start at both meetings. as a betting perspective I have found the southland venue to be a good betting track, and I probably turnover more there than betting on the same dogs going around addington every meeting Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And dogs that dont have any form and struggle to get starts at Addington can use the system and gain a start after missing selection on 2 occasions, gives trainers a chance to try and get the dog right for an improved showing. I think you will find most of the dogs that actually go down South from Canterbury actually go well on the track , great example would be dogs from A Joyce & M May Kennel These guys are good supporters of Southland because there dogs suit the track. And at the end of the day it is good to see dogs race on there prefered track Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And at the end of the day it is good to see dogs race on there prefered track Thats not always the case my dog loves Southland but in the past he has missed starts there due to lack of form, even though he hadnt started on the Thursday or Friday. Then my trainer has a dilemma - does he nominate for Thurs/Friday at Chch that week and therefore blow his chances for a start at the track he prefers on the Tuesday, or does he not nominate for Chch on the Thursday/Friday and then run the risk of also not gaining a start on the Tuesday (again) due to lack of form. My trainer will go for the first option, which I agree with, and therefore sacrifices a possible start at my dogs favourite track. I am sure my dogs favourite track is Southland, but he hasnt raced there since November or something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much of the money from Aussie do you think goes on the names Ahern, Fahey and McInerney? People who are betting on fields they know very little about often go for trainers, jockeys and drivers. I would think most of the money placed on NZ Greyhound races gets thrown on at the last minute by people sitting in TABs aroun NZ and Aussie. How much of that money is thrown on because there is that recognisable name? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call bull****. All this policy does is allow Southland dogs first preference at Southland, meaning they dont have to travel to Chch. That is all it does. Name one dog that did not get one start in a 3 week span before this policy was in place. Just one.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
