Name an alternative options then please, a economically practical one please, not some pie in the sky dream that is unrealistic. I'm well beyond naming options and solutions I've learnt more than most you're wasting your time, the industry is rife with incompetence , the solutions are there right in front of them if they want to look. But if it doesn't suit the agenda so it doesn't happen. I pity you putting up with it, 1 lane racing on a racetrack you need your head read.

That's odd I found your initial query predictable , here is a quick suggestion how about a racetrack with just 1 lane from the 500m onwards, first there first home - sound familiar? You'd enjoy punting on that I'm sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means about as much as you claiming front runners biased at every track in Victoria Barry, like you punters aren't always right or perhaps they had a fair idea who was getting to the lane first to win the race. I couldn't care less about tote prices, but certainly do about fair competitive racing and a product of a reasonable standard.

Best you stop watching NZ winter racing then Huey. & just for your information, I never claimed front runners bias in Victoria. I pondered what the cause was as I don't believe in bias of that nature. Most percieved bias is related to tempo or tactics.

You keep telling yourself that Barry, maybe u could take your concept of 1 lane racing to the Victorians and they could sort that for you. Perceived bias, tempo, tactics but supports 1 lane racing on the outside fence FFS there is no hope. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are really struggling to grasp this Huey, no ones disputing the look is ordinary, but the fact remains the most likely to win the race according to punters did so.

So now you agree the look is undesirable? Make up your mind. I don't care who won, as I said I want good competitive racing, you're arguing prices indicate that there was, you're losing it Barry.

Huey, weren't you the one claiming that NZ Trainers were not competent enough to get horses ready first up over 2000 mtrs?.

Nothing can me any ground on anything that gets the outside fence or get past them if in behind... Counties just as bad today , i'd say Awapuni Saturday will be pretty much the same , but that's ok let's just keep running on these same few tracks every couple of weeks , form will come thru eventually . napier and Baz (NZ) 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea , well Otaki , Woodville , Tauheranikau and Hawera are probably wondering what they have to do to get a race meeting . The Covid decisions they made around where racing would be conducted were all and fine at the time , but things are back to near normal , make some adjustments to reflect that and ease the pressure . Awapuni on Friday is the 3rd race meeting inside 4 weeks , and nom's are reflecting the state of the track . It's a WRC meeting , why could this not be held at Trentham , not racing there till 25th Oct , bloody ridiculous . Maybe WRC are taking a leaf out of ARC and saying no more winter racing .

Hawera has a meeting next Saturday. I suspect noms are lighter because the races at that Hawera meeting are the first lot in the CD with pre-Covid Saturday stakes, which are twice as much in some cases. I do agree that it could be run at Wellington, Awapuni will be toast after another few more meetings Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
