i actually watched the first race at marburg. I actually think racing at marburg seems more competitive and everyone has a pre conceived plan of trying ,at least a bit more than they do at the likes of albion park in my opnion.. so marburg is an ok look for the industry from a betting perspective. but race 1 run yesterday wasn't. i had a very small bet on the race and backed the favorite to win ,it was paying $2.80. well they had a false start the first time as the 4 horse never looked like pacing away,then in the re start you could tell it would break,but it mangaed to get to the first bend before doing so,then unfortunately checked 4 of the other runners enough to make you think there was only 3 chances left. The favorite had taken the lead easily early. Well they had only gone 300m with the front 3 about 10 and 20 lengths in front of the 4th and 5th horses, when t mcmullen did what she sometimes does and hooked off the inside and attacked the favorite for the lead. Normally you would think well fair enough,but this time It seemed such a dumb move as she was on the outsider and was attacking the favorite when clearly her horse was being pushed to go faster than it could,so hey, you could tell it was gone as soon as she did that,but they still ran along very fast for about a round like that befiore she sent out the white flag and was stopping badly. Well because they had run along so fast,the field remained spread out and the favorite looked like it was going to win by the length of the straight the way it was travelling. But then they called the race off with a round to go,because the number 4 horse had broken again when at the back,had been taken to the outside of the track by its driver with a gear issue and the mobile vehicle and starter crew vehicle decided to park up on the track while they gave that bloke a hand .The stewsrds saw this and decided to call the race off with a round to go. So if you looked at the video,you could see the horse that had the gear problem had gone on tis merry way well before the horses in the race got to where it had been,,but the starters assistants just stood next to their vehicle in the middle of the track nonchalontly walking back to the vehicle just before the race was called off. They didn't even try to get out of the way after the race was called off,just watching the field run past them,even though none of the horses in the race shied at it,maybe knowing the race had been called off ,thinking well whats the pointb of driving off as its a no race anyway. it was all rather strange.i didn't bother to watch any more races from marburg after that,just changed channels again. -

By Michael Guerin The two biggest young guns of New Zealand pacing face potentially brutal barrier draws at Friday night’s mammoth Addington meeting. And the causes of both Marketplace and Jumal could be made even more difficult by their key rivals drawing the ace in each race. The 13-race card is stacked with outstanding fields with a common theme of the best horses getting the hardest jobs. That was not unexpected in the Commodore Hotel Main Pace in which Akuta and Republican Party share the 25m backmark or in the Braxton Farriers Worthy Queen Trot, in which Oscar Bonavena, Muscle Mountain, One Over All and the returning Bet N Win face daunting 20m handicaps over 2000m. But while those disadvantages were pre-ordained it was luck of the draw, or should that be no luck, for Marketplace who faces barrier eight of nine in the $100,000 Dawkins Group Flying Stakes and the unbeaten Jumal who will start from the second line in the NZBS Harness Million Two-Year-Old Pace for the boys. They are undoubtedly both good enough to overcome their draws but they are made even more difficult by the fact in the Flying Stakes last start winner Rubira has drawn barrier 1 and has the gate speed to use it. And in the Harness Million the hugely talented Zeus Lightning has barrier 1 so looks set to bet a long way in front of Jumal when the big field settles into some sort of order. That didn’t stop the TAB bookies opening Jumal at $1.85 but Marketplace drawing outside all of his main rivals saw his price pushed to $2.20, huge odds for him. The luckless draws for the better young pacers continued in the NZBS Harness Million Two-Year-Old Fillies in which Shezsofast will start from widest of the eight runners. Earlier in the night there are just four starters in the $75,000 NZBS Harness Million Trot, with Aussie baby Kyvalley Ray set to start a hot favourite.
