The question needs to be asked about the improvement of The Mandalorian! The money came for The Mandalorian first up for Michael House yesterday at Oamaru. The Mandalorian had 42 starts for Brent Weaver and to be fair was a very poor performing horse and showed very little ability, hardly worth having in work! The Stipes asked the question yesterday wishy washy and accepted that it was due to a change of training routine, that enabled this poor performer to winning first up in short time from a previous trainer. Yes we know a change if trainer can improve a horse, but why not kindly explain to the betting public what this so called change of training routine is? Just a cop out answer that needs a proper answer! Either Michael House is an absolute genius or Brent Weaver is a hopeless trainer!! The betting public need to be better informed of how a horse goes from useless to a winner in short time, as we have a Racing Integrity Unit don’t we? -
