voice of reason 83 Report post Posted December 1, 2021 Letter to Grant ,Guy and Lemmy , When you chose to ride Mohaka dead in a race it should have won by at least 5 lengths ,you forgot a very important group of people ,the punters. A genuine nz black type performer with a 4 kilo claim ,against that oposition ,had to win that race. Please ,fellow cafe posters ,do not say he got too far back ,or there was no pace in the race .Lemmy could have sat 3 wide the trip on pace and still won ,in that field. Instead of burning the punter they could have run in a trial or asked Rotorua for an exibition gallop. Grant, Guy and Lemmy ,what ever race you are setting up for ,karma is a bitch ,it may come and bite ya ..The punter is a vital gog in this business ,too many times taken for a ride.

say no more 2,587 Report post Posted December 1, 2021 Ever think the problem might have been the 4kg claimer and the ability to judge pace and know when to put a horse into a race? I tend to not back them as a rule and particularly in the summer-time. 4kgs is nice but it's there for a reason and often it comes at a higher cost. Yep of course they'll win races from time to time (eg. the last race today) but the strike rate in this case is not great.
