I reckon if I was a trainer I would be desperate to never have two runners in the same race...too bloody hard for the punter in myself to handle and it has proved that way for ever and ever in racing...Frank M was put out at least twice for this in …

Any statistician knows you need a decent sample size before you can draw conclusions. So how many races in which Miller has had multiple runners are people basing their conclusions on exactly? Or has no-one actually done an analysis? Actually any re…

Just read this thread for the first time. Always bloody sad when a really good horse cops a knock like that - there are enough slow "sound" horses for everyone. Not sure where the critics of Carey are coming from on this one though -- he was purely …

I suggest you try doing your form properly in future and no I didn't have a bet in the race but if I had I would have backed Texan. No wonder Della agrees with you Andrew and Della agreeing with you should make even your super ego worry a little..…

Excellent post Snoop. A particular strong point of the heavy backing of short priced horses is in the complete lack of stewards enquires. No one complains or enquires when a short priced horse wins, so if you can get a clear information edge on a s…

I lose every Saturday now. I was making good money for 10 years but something has changed. The market prevents me from backing winners because "they" take very short odds that I can't take but "they" just keep getting it right. I could never have …

I'd like to see an end to "late gear changes". There's no excuse. Acceptances are out and form guides published days in advance. If there are any errors, there is time for them to be corrected and on the CRIS site by race morning. This crap of "an a…

I had Bippo a $1.10 shot. You know when they bet you better than evens it's got no hope. Met Rebelson 2kg better for sitting wide and beating it comfortably in the Guineas. Bippo No Bungus couldn't even beat Steel Business home. Talk about losing …

The same thing he did with many pacers. Perhaps he could give a seminar on how to get more than 3 starts in a campaign and how to get a thoroughbred to race more than once a fortnight. Might fix the small fields problem. yep fix it up alright ju…

Saw him in June in Prague Carey and just blew me away --played for over 3 hours and just let me bloody happy to be alive...

Lousiana Lady has now started favourite 9 times and lost all 9...must be some sorta record.

I agree there are many reasons the horse could have improved, my complaint is the way stewards ask questions and then just accept any answer at all including patently wrong answers.
-
Agree raconteur that Sasha rode a terrific race... but the horse got no better run in transit than it did last start. I read the report and watched the last run again to see if I was wrong --- it got a perfect run and was thrashed 8 lengths by the s…

Spurs are a huge form factor in my opinion and as with all gear changes used expertly by the very best trainers and jockeys.As with blinkers etc they sometimes have no impact -- but believe me sometimes they can! I am a lousy mounting yard judge but…

Diva that was not a good call--- that post from Wilson was pure gold and should have been highlighted and not deleted....anyone with any doubt on the value of spurs should listen to nash rawiller on the topic.

nb ---the facebook for old men comment also made me laugh ...

Wow! Rio, I have been on the Committee for one month. I am listening to lots of people and really hoping to get some constructive ideas. Not too many on this site. Biggest issue is lack of government support (IMO), but this never gets a run. Bye to …

Still no vision on pr.com...useless buggers.

the country trials are the only point of difference and basically the only reason to join...so lets hope they keep them coming along.

i was in front after Calamine won. My two mates and I own a half in her. it was a great surprise. I thought i was going to miss it after the barriers lost a wheel. Good work Pie Man --I thought the trail was really good but then I thought she triall…

i am doing my best to keep the turnover up today and thanks to the ''almighty shooter'' now i am in front...

no worries with oratism...run him again this wednesday i reckon @-)

Its a joke Rodent and the thing is that they do not care. If they did then it would not happen every second day of the week.
-
I had no idea that the results were previously published at the red hots. I can understand how that might work with trainers not using milkshakes coming under pressure to do so if all the winners had elevated levels. Realistically its a wonder the n…

I shoulda known a WA jock would never do that of their own bat!..well done anyway and hope you got a few chocholadoes...

Phenomenal Anemone! Worst named horse in history! :D Congrats mate -- a really terrific and brave ride from an outside barrier.

So many good judges bagging not leading with Twister lately ... when will people learn NDP knows better ndp in melbourne and the horses all improve...except the ones in melbourne...

What an unbelievably poorly written article. I think its crazy that Damien has been allowed to ride this week but that article is just abysmal. My ten year old would not write that badly and this bloke is a journalist. If someone that bad at his job…
