tasman man 11 979 Report post Posted January 27, 2020 No real surprise Tim.....the lower North Island /Central districts has generally relied on Mhouse and few from Top of South to keep their fields up. A long slog from Waikato/Auckland up. Upper North really does lack horses in certain 'groups'. Interesting to note that 2 and 3 yr old races hotting up in Canterbury area as feature races get closer ! Addington has 140 noms in 10 races ,despite only 6 in 2 yr old trot and 5 in 2yr old filly pace. 3 races have more than 19 noms , and 17 in feature mares race where there are 14 rated higher than Best Western ! Meanwhile the grass track meet at Geraldine has 200 noms for 11 races ,including a full field for Amateur drivers ! ATC fields were slim last week ,and I heard of a handful of those racing there were heading south for features or alarmingly to Australia cos of handicapping system and you in a quandary over your winner being forced into retirement cos of this also ! Prompt action needed ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
