john legend 735 Report post Posted August 3, 2020 Seems to me that 2 meetings a week at addington while good in theory has a limit to it . Take last friday night. 5 trots and 5 paces without large fields in most. The accountants may think it saving funds utilising one facility but they should realise horses cant race twice per week every week. I do enjoy regular racing esp. from betting angle but not when pacing fields are decimated by accountants . Now the blue army is approaching so Christchurch races may end up like coles in the greyhounds. !! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overcheck 190 Report post Posted August 3, 2020 Not ideal of course, but still a race to bet on and driver allocation will be some guide. JJ Flash 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkc 181 Report post Posted August 3, 2020 You can bet on it. I think I will pass. Who is going to attack. Pace will ease. And they will run a 26 last quarter. john legend 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So work out which one is likely to be in front after 400 metres if its that easy. FYG, draws and drivers are usually the best indication and Nat is well overdue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
john legend 735 Report post Posted August 8, 2020 Race went to script most experienced watchers knew on friday morning , Nat goes out from one golly gosh mark comes from 8 and they finish 1 2 with the well bred and performed Darling me up for 3rd. Race fixing ? NO !!! Good for the image of harness racing ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
