Yep.

Mitch has probably got the best out of the horse first up.

Arcano has never been much over anything but the shorter distances as most wins over 2000m or so.

Wasnt surprised that he didn’t go that well today as he is an old horse that has never really beaten anything, has been well enough placed and you would think he would be finished now, if Mitch can’t get anymore out of him down here.

Still prob competitive at Palmy in a weak race

Last time it raced you said it improved heaps with new trainer? So it improved by 100%, wins then goes backwards 100% to where it was initially??? Bizarre

It did improve heaps with the new trainer Mitchell Kerr, and that wouldn’t have been hard to do bearing in mind the previous trainer Newmarket.

You will notice many horses that are going to new young trainers at the moment are going very well fresh up and they go off.

Not going to name the trainers but pretty obvious from results.

When Arcano won over 1980m at Addington first up you couldn’t have liked it on the way it had been going, but with a young progressive trainer and the money on, it wasn’t that surprising.

Was Arcano good enough to race in Canterbury with the previous trainer at this time, No.

As I have said Arcano has never really been much cop over anything but a shorter distance.

Yes, well Arcarno, what can you say. 2.01.1 mile rate in the slush last start and bolts in, leads today wet track, gone 600m from home???

Would be interesting to see how the stable can explain it? Hope stipes ask the question

Haven't seen a form turnaround like that since Tiger Woods got busted by his Mrs.

I took a trifecta and this thing let me down. Badly. 

Now I know how mothers feel when they say to their children;

"I am not angry. Just Disappointed."

Racing Sunday at Oamaru, Anderson still driving but under horse movements the mare is with Mitch Kerr.... wonder why.

Best 3 of her opposition are all on the unruly, so if she starts as per usual going to be an interesting chase.

yes but stipes did not pick up on it

What?

So, surely the stable is duty bound to inform the stable if Arcano had.

Otherwise, it makes a mockery of the reporting system.

Inform the stipes, not stable, obviously.

Well where did that sprint come from?.  30 starts for previous trainer and had never shown a sprint. Theres some marvelous stuff happennning on the beaches Woodend way. Might go and run down that way myself and see if I can regain my former bounce.

Well done to the Kerr/Anderson team.

Fair enough if you call a 31.7 second quarter a sprint. I prefer think it was a grinding finish from a horse who had done the least work of the first four home.

The horse had been a maiden for 30 starts and probable been in the trail more times than Ive had breakfasts and NEVER ran past a horse before. Always battled or plugged or stopped. So now a C1 and shows a sprint to pass the four horses infront of it at the turn. I would call that a big turnaround on its racing history and well done to the team to get it to find a sprint albeit a slow one when required.

Would not have won a race while it was with Maria Peritton.

Never really showed anything while it was with her, and it just shows how much different trainers  can improve a horse.

There are many horses in Canterbury that could be improved dramatically with a change of trainer.

Gavin Smith will be wishing he never left the beach, his horses are awful since he moved to Rangiora stables.

He was known for getting unsound horses and the beach environment suited then, not so now.
