Trotters are hard to drive. They do things dipsy doddling sometimes. group 1 stars SundeeS and MuscleM even do/did at times. 'sunny's sister' looks very hard to drive but is a Derby/Oaks winner still. keeps John on the ball anyway😆 I didn't comment on the Drive by Burley as the lads did that here already on Bolt. trotters are tough to win with. too easy to pick on errors. Example 1: Take a look at Luke McCarthy tonight. One of Australia's greatest horsemen. Getting his team ready for the Big carnival in Brisbane shortly is here early. Had 3 winners tonight and a fast finishing 2nd placing by NZer CantFindABettorman (what a beaut horse it is 👍) but LEAP To FAME to strong fresh up in 1.51 in the rain, parked out too, lol. just keeps winning Luke had the $1.50 favourite in the trot and it galloped for no reason when looming up to leader. .Constantinople had won 5 from 9 this year too. Lot of cranky punters afterwards lol . Just can't trust trotters. they had a junior drivers race for trotters earlier in night at Cambridge. A recipe for disaster, but they all did fairly well in the end. Burley looked 'uncomfortable' at times driving the TEAZ trotter ,and didn't get close at all finish 7th. they aren't the easiest to drive at times. Example 2 : Look at Jasinova . 3rd this week to Sacred mountain. trained by respected trotter trainer dr Chin. But on Rowe Cup night it galloped on the good Dr at the start in a support race , and galloped for 2 laps just behind the field . I thought that was quite funny for some reason. At her 114th start. 🤣😂. can't see how it's ever smart to bet on trotters 😉. better leave the Ashburton maiden no 1 today then lol. too risky ? Burley owns that trotter (bolt for the hills) herself it seems, otherwise the experienced Josh would possibly be driving it for his trainer dad. He won the race following on the night for Telfers, so was avaliable . -

Little Bit Of Love won his fourth-straight race at Pukekohe on Saturday. Photo: Kenton Wright (Race Images) Wexford Stables enjoyed a winning afternoon on both sides of the Tasman on Saturday, including a fourth win in a row for breakthrough performer Little Bit Of Love in the Elsdon Park (1400m) at Pukekohe. Little Bit Of Love’s heroics came less than an hour after his three-year-old stablemate Geriatrix took out the A$85,000 Benchmark 78 Handicap (1400m) at Eagle Farm in his first Australian start. “It’s been a very special day today, and it’s a credit to all of our team,” said Lance O’Sullivan, who trains in partnership with Andrew Scott at Matamata. This has been a coming-of-age campaign for Little Bit Of Love, who made his debut with a well-beaten ninth on his home track in December. The four-year-old son of Time Test was a maiden winner at Tauranga second-up in early January, followed by seventh and fifth placings in his next two starts. Then he started winning and never looked back. Little Bit Of Love strung together three victories in a row at Te Rapa, producing booming finishes out wide on the track to win a 1300m Rating 65 and two 1400m Rating 75 events. He stayed in the same grade again on Saturday but rose to the top of the handicap at 60.5kg, with apprentice jockey Ngakau Hailey reducing that impost to 57.5kg with his 3kg claim. Hailey was in no hurry in the early stages of the race, easing back to third-last as his best-credentialled rival Wessex took up her customary role in the lead. Wessex still had plenty to offer at the top of the straight and scooted away from the field, while Hailey brought Little Bit Of Love to the outside to produce the finishing flourish that is becoming his trademark. Little Bit Of Love hit top gear and soon drew up alongside Wessex, who fought back hard on his inside. In a head-bobbing battle through the last 100m, Little Bit Of Love gradually gained the upper hand and edged out Wessex by a head. The third-placed Jack In The Box finished another two lengths behind the first pair. Little Bit Of Love has now had a total of eight starts for five wins, earning $99,725 in stakes. “He’s really put things together this autumn,” O’Sullivan said. “It’s probably fair to say that he’s no oil painting, but he tries very hard and that’s a big part of the battle. It’s not easy to win four races in a row. “We’ll get him home now and see how he comes through this race before deciding on our next move. He could go to the paddock, or there might be another race for him coming up somewhere. He’s in such good form at the moment and gets through rain-affected ground well, and that’s what we’re racing on at the moment.” Horse racing news View the full article -

The key word you left out Doomed was 'thought'. She thought she had the right idea and that she knew what she was doing. I have seen her ride perfect rides on this track in recent times and horrible rides, on both good and bad tracks. I suspect it is father time bringing inconsistency to her riding and she has become more cautious / safety conscious. -
