Go figure, They have different interpretations for trotters and pacers I would say. I think the stipes have internalised guidelines that they follow, maybe, it is off the cuff. There is clearly no set rule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shad Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I see the report from the gallops at greymouth today one of the apprentice jockeys got a telling off for being 3 wide the trip and not taking cover at any stage, a mate had one in the other week ridden by a senior jockey, 4 wide past the winning post the first time, 3 wide down the side, outside the leader down the back, challenging a known frontrunner, the poor bugger given no show, I said to him could a 4kg claimer done any worse, race was over in very early, what's worse a gutbuster run like that knocks them around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old,horse has got ability we all know that, it it doesn’t want to be racing and that is why it is a continual galloper now. Don should not be in the cart of it either! His other so-called maiden trotter is even worse and should be retired as it will never ever win a race, and is a lunatic!

They used to race that old when I started following Harness in the 60, s. Remember Easton Light as one example. 13 and extremely competitive in the top grade ,and there has been others.

True but Easton Light was an exception. Furthermore, the horse in question did not start its racing career until it was aged, likewise the stablemate who was even older. I agree neither horses or trainer have ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
