What a great run from Belardo Boy on Saturday under 62.5kg.
Why does a top weight like that carry over 60kg in an Open Handicap, shouldn't he just be carrying 60kg? Or is the horse catering for those entering Open Handicaps who aren't in that grade?
These TA misdemeanors pass by barely without a comment these days.

Some mind blowing prices for this sale, I thought the Harry Angel horse looked amazing.
Most pleasing to see 3 horses in the top 10 by NZ based sires also.
A good initiative, but misplaced . It would be better spread amongst the mid to low tier horses through several different that keep the turnover turning over here.
I can't see this keeping G1 horses here.
They don't believe in the benefits of spreading, they have always been solely focused on but a few.
Heres hoping they do get that $350k race right for the SI trainers.
Better than the Country Cups race that was supposed to be for the smaller stables and has been attacked by bigger stables 2nd liners.
