Ban the tape go to mobile full time after all its not a standing contest yes have your big races as stand but rest should be mobile 

Totally agree dont know why they need standing starts at all. Dont theyhave a preferential mobile draw they could use .?

You contradict (sort of) yourself - you say ban stands EXCEPT for big races.    So how do those in big races get stand practice against a field if you ban them     The two things you need to improve upon is 1) being tougher on hrses who consistently don'e go away from a stand and 2) the human element i.e. drivers who cheat by either trying to get  a timed run up or delay the start and the performance of the starters.     Simple!!    Easy to improve isn't it - when (way back lol) never had these problems!!

Oh yes, trainers have to play their part (presumably what they paid for by the owner) educating horses from young age and not to rely on "I'm to busy to spend time on that"   and "Hope it will  handle the start"

So we can all have a bet with some confidence that it will be an even start

Starts yesterday were good for both stands and mobiles and a huge improvement on Lamb's tactics, so yes I would say you could bet with confidence tomorrow.

You could see a few drivers trying to charge the start as they did with Lambspew but Ricky was having nothing of it.

Ricky seemed to make a good fist of it yesterday. No dramas is all the punters want

ARCHMAN - broke in the score up losing all chance. Authorisation of placings was withheld until Driver K Newman had an opportunity to review the score up in relation to whether his horse had been denied a fair start when being crowded in the score up. After reviewing the replays Stewards acting under Rule 213(1)(j) deemed the horse a non-runner. Stewards spoke with Starter P Lamb regarding this incident. Mr Lamb explained that in his opinion the horse had not suffered sufficient interference to warrant calling a False Start and so allowed the start.

 

Up to his old tricks. How did he not get reprimanded let alone fined for his latest F up when the JCA declared the runner in question a non starter

Don't know if Lamb was doing the job at Wingatui today but that Race 2 start didn't look too good

Front row all walked up and flew away but 30 metre horse were all standing and took a while to get trotting--- and none of them even caught up with bunch of the front horses after that

Pretty ordinary effort by him but we cant blame Mr P Lamb for that shambles
