barryb Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 I imagine hes rather busy trying to mop up the floods from the track to keep the meeting going ahead.

Rain starting to ease, will just be a bog of a track with a huge % of horses bo chance at the hop. Look at Melbourne on their cup day, huge downfall yet improved in a couple of races. Why, well they have drainage!! Riccarton had their chance to put drainage all around the track, but just did a half arsed piss poor job. Should have just laid a million tampons around the track 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee Bazz... Started a 10.... Oatham gets on and tells us it's on the cuthp of S 9 Seriously...where do these boys at NZTR and RIU get off by hiding the Pen. Reading on the morning of the race? Has nobody heard that information = punting confidence?

Reading actually was..on the CUSP...at 7.30! Edited November 12, 2018 by Thomass 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freda Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Ffs.. the pen. reading would have been anyone's guess until races were run. As it turned out, the track coped remarkably well and came back quickly. Didn't hear of any horses disadvantaged apart from some on the inner.

TIME FOR CHANGE Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Must have got a phone call from a leading stable and told to water the track. As 10mils applied this afternoon.

Reefton Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) 16 minutes ago, TIME FOR CHANGE said: Must have got a phone call from a leading stable and told to water the track. As 10mils applied this afternoon. WHY WHY WHY What is wring with a Good 3 track. Exactly! Someone has done a Lee Freedman on them and threatened to scratch if they didn't water the track. It had copious amounts of rain on it Friday and they are irrigating today?????? Incidentally a couple of months back I got stuck in about them watering the track and got a fair bit of rubbishing on here for saying that that day the times indicated it was worse than the published dead 4. Now on Saturdays heavy 10 come slow 9 come slow 8 they were only running a second or so slower (and comparable times in the 1200m race). Pretty hard to believe that on two tracks fully 4-6 points different they was that little difference in times posted? One might be forced to conclude that there is an element of unreliability in their pentrometer readings? We at Reefton have an excuse cos we are amateurs but according to the Prophet Winston these boys are the bees knees.

Science? bollocks... My understanding is they try to gallop a couple of horses on the morning and get the opinion of riders as well Especially at a major meeting... If that was the case...and Oatham told a few that were watching at 11 am That it was "on the cusp of 9" Surely Punters should know that from 7.30 ...when the Stewards set the reading?

Freda Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 (edited) Te Akau galloped a couple in the morning and Paul Richards told me that it was 'certainly not heavy '. I must admit to being surprised, but Paul would know far better than most. Edited November 12, 2018 by Freda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
