    • No he hasn't been "a trainer for 5 minutes".  Was training horses since his grandad Herb showed him a horse. Aiden O'Brien said he was the best young horseman he'd had at Ballydoyle. Your claim to fame?  
    • been some great traditions with those sort of things . Some of the best ever were off long handicaps in Big fields for a lot of their race like Lordship, Johnny Globe, Caduceus, Highland Fling, False Step, and of Course Cardigan Bay. they became household names because of it. Great Old Days for sure !👍 Lazarus and Copy That and Swayzee running off the front is just a waste of time from a stand . as with no Handicap they are gifted a second NZ NZ Cup each ..might as well be a mobile. like they did with the Interdominion over 40 years ago , To make sure THey ALL get away safely being the main reason , and Not a Fiasco.  Last Friday nights the racing at Alexandra Park and Addington was excellent , as EVERY runner had EVERY hope to Win in the world. That's the thing Most owners/trainers/drivers like about it . A better product. If you are back last at the quarter in a 14 horse field NO CHANCE whatsoever, even if you dodged all the bad luck that happens when too many run. they're a disaster these days and times. with horses knocking each other over and that.  The 14-18 horse fields look spectacular , and you can get a Big price. (Melbourne Cup with 24 in it for example and a long priced winner won it) Burt a Gazzilion Punter dollars are lost on the Also rans . Only ONE can win.  and a Heap of horses end up with a zero in their form line. USA model is better for horses to pay their way.  8 across the front, or Australia with regular 9- 10 horse fields which STOP most of the Bad Luck and Bad beginnings. think we step up to 12 horses fields for the racecard and BIG bucks for the Interdominion carnival though , so will be interesting tactics by some on Saturday night racing for Big dollars the next 3 weeks . will be some BIG wins.
    • Bosses probably all getting big pay increases when the money comes through. That is what usually happens.
    • no worries Mikey.  You will get a stable of 5 horses for the 3 Saturday nights . 3 Pacers and 2 Trotters.  Think I will draw all 5 of everyone's horses in about 2 hours time. I Imagine the Saturday night Heats are all available in NZ and able to be viewed ?
