Ideal run tonight... Pace was on and he had plenty of room when the field spread out. Too good for them at nice money. -

Apparently I got the 7.5 hrs wrong. But it is definitely more than 4.5. Unless it was the only horse on the float or the last one picked up! Given the weather forecast and the existing weather conditions through the Waikato it wouldn't have been a fast trip. But as we all know the Trainer makes the decisions and you only have a say if you own more than half. I don't think ANY Trainer is not trying to place their horses as well as they can. The bigger issue which we should ALL focus on is sorting out the scheduling/programming/pattern. -

This photo popped up in a feed. with a poem attacthed! Two things re the Photo.. 1) The Barbed wire looks interesting!! 2) has the photo be presented facing the wrong way??? An old poem from the late Slim Gillman (A racing stalwart who trained at Omoto) "It was a lovely day as they started away with a smile of content on their faces .. the money they spent was meant for the rent, but they had a lovely day at the races. -
Sorry, but it has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not I race horses. -
Yes always good to see those two doing well,a few of those good riders of that era training a few, Danny Frye, Bruce Smith who had success with Lombardi, which I haven't seen racing, looked promising, interesting you mention Mr Hamilton, was he the trainer from omakau and won a Grand National with Kid Colombus, had an apprentice Jo Chong back in the day, even trained a few harness horses.
