Isn't that one of the reasons Tony Lee was let go? He refused to do selections in the way you described. -

Or introduce some 2 yr old races with some decent bonuses to get Northern peoples excited .......touche ! 'You ideas folk , the true trendsetters of Harness spend too much time and effort propheticating on the ills of Harness ,especially Northern Harness when the real BIG issue is the alarming lack of horses in the North. Come up with a plan to help fix this ...more owners , more foals born , more starts per horse . THe higher stakes have created a lot of interest , less horses were sold /exported last year and the 2 yr old bonuses and Next Gen plans are in place it just gunna take a while to rebuild interest and replenish stocks even if at all possible ! -

Schwarz ridden by Blake Shinn winning the Group 2 Australia Stakes at Moonee Valley. (Photo by Brett Holburt/Racing Photos) Schwarz demonstrated his brilliance with a dominant performance in the Group 2 Australia Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley, showcasing his readiness for a tilt at Group 1 success. Guided by Blake Shinn, the four-year-old son of Zoustar led from start to finish, securing a decisive two-length victory over Steparty, with Apache Song a further 0.25 lengths back in third. Breaking cleanly from the outside barrier, Schwarz displayed his natural speed to surge forward and assume control of the race. Shinn expertly guided the colt in front, and as they approached the home turn, Schwarz extended his lead, putting the race to bed with an explosive turn of foot. The field chased gamely, but Schwarz was in a class of his own, completing the 1200 metres in 1:10.46 with the top horse racing bookmakers offering $4.40. Group 2 Australia Stakes Replay – Schwarz https://horsebetting.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Moonee-Valley-2025-Group-2-Australia-Stakes-24012025-Schwarz-John-OShea-Tom-Charlton-Blake-Shinn.mp4 Speaking after the race, co-trainer Tom Charlton praised Schwarz’s professionalism and ability. “He’s always been a horse with a lot of ability and class,” Charlton said. “When he gets into a rhythm like he did tonight, he’s a very determined horse. Blake summed it up perfectly—he got the horse into a great rhythm, and he just kept extending. It’s a pleasing first-up run, and we’re excited about what’s ahead.” Jockey Blake Shinn, who recorded a double on the night, highlighted Schwarz’s growing maturity. “He was great tonight. He went into the barriers like an old open handicapper, jumped well, and was all business,” Shinn said. “I just rode him with trust, and he was fit and ready to go. When he got to the front, he relaxed beautifully and showed his true ability.” Schwarz’s victory marked his fifth win from ten starts, elevating his career earnings to over $700,000. Charlton confirmed that the C.F. Orr Stakes (1400m) is the logical next step for the colt, which Neds Bookmaker is currently offering $8 after the impressive win. “He’s proven at 1400 metres, and we believe he’s ready to take the step up to Group 1 level,” Charlton said. “It’s an exciting time for the team and his connections.” The race also showcased strong runs from the runner-up, Steparty, who charged home late in his first Group 2 sprint, and Apache Song, who continued to impress with a competitive effort against quality opposition. However, the night belonged to Schwarz, whose dominant display solidified his status as a rising star in the sprinting ranks and a potential stallion prospect.

Thanks for the correction re Pauline......I'll blame that on me old mate tasmanman who when asked for the P christian name said Prue for 'a stab in the dark ' Of course he should know and remember this stuff as he stayed at school till he was 21 but I left at 13 ,hence why I still working ! His eyes light up when anyone mentions Show Gate ,Gatekeeper ,Middy ,Sandy etc. Together we spent a lot of time around these horses , the Didhams , Browns and smaller owner/trainer stables ! We never remembered you riding for the Dennis Bros....you a pinch hitter then ? We do remember you riding outstanding Northern mare Orchidra a few times ,once in a 4 x horse field if our memory is correct . What was the story behind that ? -
For the first time in years, I've started watching a bit of live trackside in recent weeks. I notice that pre-race, they seem to get commentator selections for each race and even list those onscreen. I'm not clear yet whether those are the announcer's assessment of the best winning chances in order (usually 4), or their assessment of the best betting propositions. Probably not the latter because they sometimes comment that the price has changed markedly. Have they always done that and do they do that in other jurisdictions? I've never heard it here or elsewhere when on course or on replays. So, what is the purpose of it? Wouldn't you expect the race announcer to take a neutral position? Are they allowed to bet?
