I realise it is a difficult concept for some, especially grumpy old men types, but the rules were originally written very much in the male gender. Good to see with all the successful and prominent female licensees in racing that the rules are now gender neutral. -

Fair comment , after a promising start most trainers have decided to just educate their 2 yr olds and get to the trials stage before spelling them and taking the next step to racing them. Mark Jones commented that in general Trainers were reluctant to race them at 2 and risk their value so early on.So he pointed at the trainers . At this time of year , most of the races are around the minimum stakes with the sires stakes series which many target starting later in August and run to end of year ! Today Auckland had about at 8 trials/workouts ,4 at least looked up to race speed rating 2.02 MR for 2050 m. Tomorrow there are at least 10 pacers at Chch trials/workouts. The aim for trainers at this stage seems to be to get into big Age group races or showing enough potential to get a big offer ! And some of the bigger stables have enough 2 yr olds to sort out their abilities at home and in trials to press on with the best and spell the rest . The 2 yr old Bonus for first win etc is still in its infant stage and is talked about and targeted , but this balanced with desire not to jeopardise its future and saleability ! They going faster and faster at 2 and many not mature enough at 2 to compete.
