mikeynz Posted February 1 Posted February 1 2 nominations, then..........13 noms for 3 pacing races at Auckland, Wairio rating 50 to 70, how many ? But then also Sunday Horarata 46 to 70, programming all over the place, anything over rating 55 struggling.......strangely fields for Cambridge Wednesday generally good, I seriously wonder if going to Alexandra Park just don't appeal to many, prefer Cambridge.

Not that bad, not one nomination for the 2year old male pace for $17k! HRNZ really need to pull their head out of the sand and stop denying the actual reality of what is happening? If they dont then things are going to get very dire! We need A spokesman for HRNZ to start conversing with the public as to how they think they can continue when the cash is all gooooone! Quote

And the reality is, the money they race for ain't bad but why Cambridge Wednesday, Auckland Friday, ? Quote
mikeynz Posted February 2 Author Posted February 2 (edited) Every race or many races you see a wide band in the ratings just to get starters, rating 41s racing rating 50s, then FFAlls rating 62, racing rating 80s 90s or whatever, it's a mess. The old system while not perfect you know where you stood. Edited February 2 by mikeynz 1 Quote

They definitely need another brainstorming system and debate about the way things are tracking! Quote
mikeynz Posted February 2 Author Posted February 2 Amberley must have done some begging, 7 in the Cup rating 60 but 2 under that.........Wairio noms as expected, none in the 2yo fills race, 6 in the main pace, Horarata cup 18 noms rating 49+ still believe any race with 6 or less starters penalty free.

mikeynz Posted Thursday at 09:14 PM Author Posted Thursday at 09:14 PM Manawatu have 7 noms for 2 races for non winners, be interesting to see how they manage that but non winners should have the most numbers but not the case, Southland no better sometimes too. Quote
mikeynz Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago (edited) Looking at noms for Motukarara and Gore, it just keep emphasizing the fact that owners/trainers enjoy grass track racing. Hawera and Taupo weren't too bad either earlier on. Edited 2 hours ago by mikeynz 1 Quote
