These fellas certainly have had a very poor season by previous standards.  Punters still seem to have faith going by tote prices..   I wonder when they will come back into the form to justify punters loyalty?

 Its interesting to compare boths udr compared with previous seasons.

Just shows you what a huge effect Dexter Dunn had on the winners total for Cran.

Cran not the training force he once was. Despite Nathan Purdon's breeding and his 2016 G1 Albion Park win on Ohoka Punter, I don't rate him as a driver at all. He's improved over the last couple of years but there was light years of space for him to do so. If you keep putting average drivers on good animals, all of them will improve.

Hello Everyone,

First time poster from Australia. I think you guys are being a bit harsh on Cran Dalgety. If you look at the quality horses he has sold recently to America and Australia it is very difficult to stay competitive all the time. 

Unlike the AS he is in a rebuilding stage and I took a share in a horse called Alta Endeavour, he ran second in a workout today. I must say from day one, Cran has been first class in communicating with regards to the horses progress.

Harness racing is a business and I am sure Cran will be back with plenty of winners real soon!!

Cheers

Fair to say that Nathan Purdon's go in life will be training,which i think he's stated before.A shame that Cran's team isn't what it once was...but i guess most trainers go thru that...tho losing Dexter hasn't helped.

purdon /payne combo was a real winning combo but look at Paynes as a trainer is a shocker why is this ??? or is there being more time spent at the Hornby mens working club than with the horses

I don't the know the reason why G. Payne's a shocker of a trainer compared to M. Purdon. But his lack of success is not unusual and often happens when the junior partner splits from the main man.

Another example is the Butt/Anderson team. The team was a success but since the split Mr Timothy Butt has kept on training winners while Mr Anderson would be lucky to train a winner a season. Why is this?

I live in Blenheim so have no idea how much time Payne spends at the Hornby pub. Sadly, if what you say is true, it would not be a surprise because a liking for the ale has ruined many a good man/woman. 

Can other forum members more knowledgeable than I remember other successful training partnerships where when they have split one of the trainers has faded into oblivion while the other continues to thrive. It is weird I agree Hunterthepunter.

Believer? Not sure what you are on about FU... have you had a few ales????

I thought Hunterthepunter made a good point and it is an interesting one. The likes of Anderson and Payne served apprenticeships under two master horse trainers, Mr Timothy Butt and Mr Mark Purdon, a chance few get. What did they do while they were in partnership with these masters as they appear to have learned nothing.... did they just make the tea, clean (or lick) the bosses boots, jog horses and clean the tack? 

I am sure my good friend Brodie doesn't have an answer on this subject either.

Prudent good trainers like Cran are selling the just below top flight and the odd top flight horse as they , like I , cannot see the point in having your good horses beaten up every week by Allstars for 3 -4 th place cheque’s .

A good $$$$$ from Aussie or USA is far better than running around NZ !

So UDR and wins skewed by sales of good horses who cannot beat the blue and star machine .

Is it ? 

I'm in awe of your comedic genius. 

I can't fire anything back about your penis as I have no idea what it looks like and have no interest. That would require a very strange individual or a raging gaylord. Which one are you? Perhaps both?
