tasman man 742 Report post Posted February 8, 2022 Often there is a list of horses who have raced the most during a season. Well last season was extended because of the date change so was 17 months instead of the usual 12 ....this meant numbers will be higher. Off top of head I thought maybe durable Canterbury pacer Pay Me Visa would be near the top. He had 50 starts [ 4 x wins ] ,I thought that would be hard to beat. I often watch Safrakova and Luk Chin out there....the mare had 57 starts for 2 x wins and 14 x placings Surely the most ! But no......Canterbury trotter Rachmaninov edges ahead with 58 x starts for 2 x wins and 10 x places. Did any horses exceed these.......58 to beat !

tasman man 742 Report post Posted February 8, 2022 The ink had barely dried and the name Dreaminsover flashed up. Often in Amateur races , he raced 59 x times for 4 x wins and 7 x placings. Now the one to beat ! He had 48 x starts in 2019 season so a hardy horse ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
