But does it not seem that the owners and trainers are not wanting to race their horses early and therefore affecting the racing viability of their horses later on? The days of the Gordon Middleton and Des Grice bringing out these early 2 year olds is not happening! The industry financially just can not be operating the way they currently are! Whether the industry survives or flourishes does not really affect me at all! However I am deeply concerned for the harness industry and the good people that rely in it for a living! Any comments that I make that can be perceived as negative is solely for the concern for what is going on currently. Speaking up probably will not make a scrap of difference to what happens when Entain pulls the plug but at least I will have a clear conscience. I personally do not believe that the decision makers really have the best interests of harness racing at heart for the longevity of racing!! -

It's frustrating, I agree. But you can't expect people to buy into yearlings if they are not going to have guaranteed races a year later. I don't know what the answer is.... -

Every Club did that I had to own a horse to get to the trough. -
Correct the handicapping system is just not fair nowadays with such a gap between the ratings especially from the mobile. Is it really fair to have a maiden winner running against a horse that has won 15 races? not sure why the system has not been changed to something better like no. Of wins or stakemoney won or a bit of both? Often there is a rating difference of up to 20 points so needs amending surely?
