The rules are the problem. Can't do this, can't do that but yes as long as you don't do this and then you can do that but not twice past this point. Then if the jockey has three consecutive strikes instead of one, no strike on next stride, then one again, imagine the uproar if the horse is DQ because a jockey used the whip 3 times instead of twice. So advantage to the clever cheats. And do you think NZTR have either the intelligence or the guts tidy this mess up?
My pet hate raises its ugly head across the Tasman. There was some fierce debate about the state of Rosehill last Saturday and I guess 80/20 rule, majority don't care but the minority who really matter as outlined in that article will continue to become disenchanted. Bottom line is if owners/trainers and particularly the regular punter who is a lot more adventurous with their size of bet loses confidence they will look elsewhere to be entertained.
