Happy Sunrise Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Only 5 races programmed at Addington on the resumption which is good as I won't lose too much money. Invercargill has 4 on the Saturday and then Cambridge has 9! Trials next Thursday. Won't be too long before it is back to 'normal' ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trotsfan Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 if you look below in the fine print at addington it said it is a 10 race programme races 2,3 & 4 will have nominations to run more than one race so you will have more than 5 races to lose your money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Sunrise Posted May 24, 2020 Author Share Posted May 24, 2020 So we might be getting 2 meetings this week. One on Thursday and one on Friday since the trials have had such big numbers. I hope they do or it is going to be a big barn winning fest. Every man and his dog will be pouring over the trial coverage finding a winner lol. I also think it is going to feel a bit weird and off putting seeing racing again, but then I will see on odds and 6 horses paying under 2 dollars a place in a 9 horse field and I will quickly realise things are just like like they used to be... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Can anyone please confirm that the Woodend trainers were able to train on the beach during the lockdown ? Dunn, Todd etc....keen to know how fit they'll be and from a betting perspective do we avoid the small trainer that didn't have a private track to work the horses on for 6 weeks.

John Dunn was on the news training the horses on the beach so I would suspect those horses would be fit. 2 hours ago, Dougie said: from a betting perspective do we avoid the small trainer that didn't have a private track to work the horses on for 6 weeks. You would think the horses who have trialed would be a better bet than those unseen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hard to be critical in these times but how on earth do a wealthy NZ Mett run races for $7,500 but good old Invercargill $10,000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowornever Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Actually the average is actually higher for Addington should read 21 races not 22. Addington 21 Races for $173000 in stakes.

I have a few bills I need to pay and your selections usually give a pretty good account of themselves, and at value too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
