Chief, not surprising that thread was pulled down from elsewhere, he probably got the call from the doctor to take it down! Main reason I think this site will really go forward, as posts are not altered or deleted here. Good one,

Fair enough Basil, I suppose the way he said it upset a few, including myself. So many small stables/ hobby trainers around the country, battle around with their horses, most are never going to be much, but they all have one thing in common. They love their horses, maybe not the harness game at the moment, but love the horses. Getting up in cold mornings, to feed and work a horse that’s never paid a div, knowing that when they finally finish with the horse, it will end up in the next paddock with 20 others, eating carrots. Compare that to leading stables, these are mainly the ones in the headlines, sometimes for all the wrong reasons, horse not competitor, will be shipped on quickly, who knows where. So many country tracks would close with small trainers, and I love country racing. One reason I like to see level playing field, which it never will. So good luck to all you battlers at Blenheim today ?

100% agree with you. That’s what I stated earlier, trainers use when the moneys up, don’t when not. Gives the punter no confidence at all.

Thought Weasel has valid point. Everyone has different ways on how they select horses to bet on. Surely this info is just as important as gear changes, which we are informed of.

Other site took down above post, which is nothing unusual, as anything owner disagreed with was deleted quickly. Not sure why, it is on social media, so nothing secret. A guy called Lee seems to know a lot about it. He had stated 20-30 gallops & harness trainers are involved in process. As I’ve said before, if everything is all above board, why not name those using it? Then everyone can see results for themselves, might be more trainers interested, might be less interested, who knows.

Yes. BOAY honours list. Oldwhiteman for his arsehole post, and maybe add Ashoka, for the longest post with nothing on it ?

Thought same. Unreal run really, after that performance it should have been unbeatable after

So, it’s confirmed by picture, Oldwhiteman is Scoobs ?

What a tosser

Sorry, it is open class trot. Very good field, forgot that Princess Armbro raced against top field

Horse was Princess Armbro. How’s this for an intermediate trot field

Nill

Went nill

Get on Prom Queen,!!

I’m really warming to Prom Queen, I’m gonna offload

I agree that trainers go thru good and bad patches, but when they struggle to win at Forbury or the likes, it’s a little concerning.

Max Millar also trained up there. Had good trotter Westham, also had others, just can’t remember names

Here’s a couple at Randwick which I’ll be backing, R1-1 R2-8.

A guy Fox trained a horse called Dutchy in the 80s. Didnt get to open class, but won 7 or 8 I think.

Agree, Honest toilers, don’t think I have seen any of these names on the naughty list at hrnz!

May look strange you running between peoples legs at local supermarket trying to work out sex.

You need to get under the horse and look up, some good tell tale signs of girlie or boy ?

All seems bizarre to me.

Well said. Yep, it seems a few questions need to be answered on this.

Everyone did Pretty well with their picks
