Happy Sunrise Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 Big and interesting (for some) field in the claimer at Forbury on Friday night. Brian Norman is trying to get rid of a few cheaply and some are over the odds. Not sure I would be paying 10 000 for a horse out of a claimer either. From my highly unprofessional eye (not even amateur status) I would buy Real Dash as I think he could do with a change of scenery and is capable of doing a little more....$5000 is not too bad and he has the lowest rating of them all. Not everyone's cup of tea but thoughts on who you would buy? Good on Forbury with attempting to the keep claiming races going too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Hippie was with the AllStars. There were several on that other site that kept saying that he was going to be a champ. I said that he wasn’t and now he is in a claimer. Goes a bit rough at times and if it was going any good you wouldn’t honk it would be in a Forbury claimer and cheap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flagship uberalles Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 I see the mett has a $14000 FFA programmed for Thursday with only 2 nominated, what's going on with our industry at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter is actually a good time for reasonable middle class horses to make a dollar as the AllStars horses are in the paddock and the fields are thin. Nelson wouldn’t have had anything to do with it either! Puzzling really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a shame, even more reason to sell your horse o/s when its at a reasonable rating, can't get a start in winter and runs into all stars the rest of the year.. bingo!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Sunrise Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 And a bit of a new name trainer called Petra Luzumova in race 1. Good to see new names bobbing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see new names bobbing up. Nice to see new trainers, forbury is now a bread and butter track, doesn't get the best quality, but gets well supported, it deserves a few good races during the year with decent stakes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
