 Is it true that the tab bookmakers have offered to pay all training fees,to ensure these horses remain in training? 

Will the bookmakers  have betting on whether any of these horses will manage to trot a race without galloping.

The wife reckons I need commited after backing one of those today,she's probably right.

Don’t know how One Over The Stars is allows to break week after week and not be stood down to trial, like most things I suppose it’s whether you are on the good list or the naughty list, the punter seems to be the last thing taken into account.

I see they both got a warning. Whoop de doo.

I don't know who the stipes are kidding, but the pattern for One over the skye is breaks-no warning, next start breaks-warning,next start breaks-no warning,next start breaks-warning.

There's that many One overs  breaking nearly every time that it is confusing. One over da stars is the one who the stipes give the most preferential treatment of the Hope trained horses. I went back 10 starts and  the stipes have done the warning, then no warning 4 different  times in 8 of the 10 starts..

Other trainers must surely look at that, and the similar treatment given to the Ben Waldron One over horse,and must ask themselves why those stables get such preferential treatment?.

One over da sky in at Timaru tomorrow. The only certainty tomorrow is this horse galloping. Even blair orange driving cant work miracles.  Amazingly the bookies have it only paying $5.  What drongo's.

If it doesn’t get stood down today then something is corrupt, broke twice at the start, again near the finish, needs to be stood down till it can prove it can actually trot.

One over da skye continues to gallop with no warnings.  Driver r.may reported the mare panicked when surrounded by other runners. Well it was actually only one horse  outside it and it again caused interference to those following it. 

Unbelievably the horse was 2/3 in the betting. 

I wonder if they will retire this "one" soon, or will it continue to cause interference?.

It was one over da stars that they retired at Timaru. That many one's that gallop its confusing,. The one consistent is how lenient the stipes treat them.

Another "one" trotter,another false start.  That horse had galloped in the score up in its last 4 races, today it made it 5 times.  

And yet the stipes had allowed it to stay in the draw. 

Still another "one" to come today. I wonder how many gallops for it, i'm guessing 2 or 3.

If they don't have a 'lightbulb' moment at the time then the stipes do nothing.

They really are lazy sometimes.

Well it had to happen didn't it.

The useless one over the skye who broke at addington 2 days ago,and again was not stood down, does the same thing today,interfering badly with Trick Star who I stood to get a very good collect off had  it won

I've no doubt having to avoid a horse galloping all over the place in front of it cost it victory.

How many times does this horse have to interfere with others before it is stood down. 

How was a horse with such a shocking record ever made favorite is another mystery.

I will ask it again,why do the stipes allow this,when will they do their job?e

$4. It is almost a pyramid scheme of sorts. TAB opens it up short and the sheep come in flocks to back it.

Because it goes out favourite each time it starts?

Dealing with persistent breakers may not be listed on their job description?

Yet another warning.

To me there is  something dishonest  going on here.

They talk about race fixing, yet they turn a blind eye,week,after week,after week etc ,to the same horses with the same connections.

They are making a mockery of any enforcement they do in relation to other horses manners. How can they possibly send others to trial before racing when the horses that are the worst offenders get preferential treatment.

I've got to admit I have come to appreciate the efforts of one over da skye..

  Sent to the north island and starts favorite tonight. Same result, Gallops again,but she sure does help the odds of others in the field.
