      2 year old bonus

      By the galah · Posted

      the obvious question then is why aren't there more 2 year olds being raced currently. And i think the obvious answer to that is,its far more complex than people will race their horses as 2 year olds as they are wanting quick returns because of high costs.Thats a very simplistic way of viewing the issue,but it does demonstrate how HRNZ and entain view things. Again,i would point out the obvious,whats the point in anyone racing a 2 year old when you know its no chance of winning or earning.What does anyone gain from getting well beaten when racing against the best 2 year olds. Despite the current bonuses and focus stakes wise on 2 year old racing,its looking like its made not one scrap of difference. I don't have the stats,but all you have to do is look at the very smalll numbers running to work out the obvious. Like i have said and predicted,the only time you will get more horses running because of the bonuses will be later in the year.I didn't think that i was being over clever when i predicted that as i thought it obvious,but obviously the decision makers couldn't see it before it happened. Its just like the thing about them currently considering rehandicapping winners of 2 year old races back to be rated as non winners when they turn 3. Again,i think thats another obvious decision that will do more harm that good if you want to keep people participating. But hey,theres hardly anyone left now. If that does happen,all that will do is see smaller non win fields at tracks like addington as no one except thehandful of big stables will run against them. Then you will have officials and hrnz going on about ...why don't people run at addington with their lower grade horses.

      If you want to see a prime example of someone who is about to lose their job, watch Race 1 from Warrnambool on replay. Madness.

      Anyone ever just drawn to one horse on instinct at the expense of all others?

      By Walt · Posted

      I looked at the Messenger field for Friday night and one horse just keeps jumping out to me. Every time I go to look at other runners in an outstanding field I keep being drawn back to this one horse. I don't say this horse is a good or not good bet, just that I can't look at the field without him jumping out at me. The horse: BETTER ECLIPSE. Maybe a big night for Greg Sugars who also drives Just Believe in the big trot. He and Oscar look like the quinella of the season.
