Brodie Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago (edited) Addington race 4 Friday night, 2000 metre stand for $18,000 just shows how the current rating system is stupid! When a 14 win horse is programmed to race a non winner then it is high time HRNZ reconsiders the current rating system! Buffy Northstains has won 14 races and starts off the front and yet HRNZ have allowed a 9 start all unplaced maidenSenior Constable Liz, to start off the unruly?? There are also several 9 race winners also included in the field with the maiden to race against! Seriously what benefit is it for the industry to allow this maiden who is not competitive in a maiden race to be able to race at headquarters when it has no chance on earth of being g near the money?? Maidens should never be allowed to race against race winners and high time HRNZ changes the rules cos this is just a blatant farce!!!!

Can't be too bad the way they're rated mate. as 9 of the 16 horses in that race (10 horses if you count the scratching ) have a WIN in their last 3 races starts. and old Rachmaninov won 5 starts ago. so that's a good grading and winning ratio. But do agree that is A super Tough task for a maiden taking on so many race winning trotters like that , for sure. Musn't be anything around that a three year old trotting filly can start in ? . should head to Manawatu maybe ? 😁💰 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would the owner think this is right and it is only going to get in the way of the others that have a chance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol even more absurd is they opened the maiden at 61s showing the bookies have no idea when setting prices. Already out to 201 which is more its true opening price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
