    • Should have 2 maiden classes, those that ain't been in first 5 in last 5 starts are b, the rest are a , bs could race for half stake  esclusively and remain a maiden until it wins a A grade maiden, just a idea. 5 starts after wins have no ratings drop, just my thoughts, that will slowly ease congestion but add some numbers up the ratings a little.
    • Yes thats how they used to do it but the UK style of risk management that has slowly crept in over the years is slash anyone that looks like they can beat you. One of my mates who just shifted to Australia this year opened an account with Ladbrokes when he got over there and not long after put 50EW on a horse at New Plymouth he got told to back. It won and paid $18 and the day after he took his money out he just got an email saying they were closing his account. Thing is he a hopeless punter and would have given that back 10 fold if they let him keep going. He was just unlucky he got lucky just after opening his account. Or his mistake was taking the money out not sure what was the trigger for the account closure. I believe it has the opposite effect they are going for and has dramatically reduced turnover to the point they are now offering every tom dick and harry bonus bets to entice them to spend up. That is a spiraling downward trend over time. Because most punters have a good collect every now and then but if you keep restricting anyone who has  good collect you end up restricting everyone. Pretty sure that will happen here sooner than later. Blanket restrictions and bans.
    • Over the last two days we visited 2 SI tracks!     I don't know what the clegg or track rating was, gave it the shoe test! That was after walking a few k's all over said course!

    • Would be interesting to gauge how much they like horses if they stop being a cash cow, there has been a small number winning all the races for young ones making a fast buck at the expense of the rest of the toilers.
