Just my point Freda, you have stated so many issues in your last post that you feel strongly about, but trainers are just cruising along, waiting for a miracle. I have NO synpathy for trainers in nz, if they cant work together and stage some sort of fightback, they should not grizzle.
As for owners getting upset if trainers striked, i doubt that very much. If it could help owners in the future, i am sure they would not mind planned strike, christ they have enough race meetings call off each year, why not have another, that will get media attention.
