Why would Nat Rasmusson think her horse would be able to get the lead off $1.10 favourite? Answer = PLANNED. Does that not also mean team driving? Race fixing maybe?

Expand  

course it was planned, you can plan to trail someone you know ??? how does that make it race fixing.?

Remember the running of a race has Nothing to do with a horses odds. !!! 

Since when has Trailing the leader been such a bad position in the running??? used to be the death seat was where not to be if you wanted to be in the finish (unless you are pure Steel or Gammalite lol)

(one poster did describe the turn for home at Alex park not ideal as compared to Addington which is interesting? bigger track though?)

Why didn't he stay behind Callies Delight then? If Amazing Dream was the better stayer, why didnt he park out BW? 

Expand  

Because Mark is a great Judge in a race. How do you think he gets such Amazing results.

I would trail the good horse BEYOND WORDS in a heartbeat as you get a cosy trip , Taken right into the race, every possible chance to win, horse gets a breather in the run, Would be planning my victory celebration !!

but BW was too good up the straight unfortunately. (ok for me as took $20 Quinella) 

Amazing Dream has had some wide tough runs lately?? surely deserved a nice cosy trail for a change? lol

Glad someone is enjoying the races instead of grizzling about cheating and think they know better than Mark himself , how to drive his own horses .hehe  I wish he drove Ashley Locaz so I could of got my Quinella ? lol

Yes watching today was great viewing. Isn't he adorable the little pocket rocket.

Hope you enjoyed your champers.

Then you'd criticise Natalie for not contesting the lead.  Did you expect them to cut each other's throats?  Amazing Dream had the run of the race and on the night wasn't good enough.....just!

You haven't offered much of an alternative scenario to the way the race was run.  Do you have evidence of a criminal offence?

Expand  

I have.pure and simple for all retards and stewards there is no way on any planter beyond words can get the lead none.so why hand up when your the better horse and Mr blue juice said Better stayer.so marks comments to stewards are flawed.

How good was the finish in the 3y-o fillies race. Chief nearly took the chocs with his secret santa, missed by a nose. If I was watching that live, I would of been doing a vocal warm up for my song. But no, it was not to be.

Kudos to the winner.

And I felt Darling Me was given her chance.

Expand  

Let's face it Darling Me's future is in the breeding paddock. She's is royallly-bred and anyone would love to own her as a breeding mare. She'll win her share but I don't think she will race much past three before she is bred from. The other filly is better than her, certainly tougher. Darling Me may be better over 1600m? Jewels will suit her.

In the quote you have used there Hunter, it says quote from Gammalite, " I would trail the good horse BEYOND WORDS in a heartbeat". 

Nothing about handing lead to any old mug . lol YOU made that up for some reason , bit of a good sport?

Yes she is, very tough win. Stripes report says tire had deflated too during the running. Yeah maybe re Darling Me 1600m.

 If I was the owner of Amazing Dream (which I'm not and I'm no expert either and have not driven either) but from an owners point of view, I think I would feel disappointed at placing 2nd by a head. If my horse was in the lead, and that advantage was given away. Amazing Dream beat the boys in Derby including the favourite for this years NZ Cup. 

But anyway we all have our own thoughts, views, perceptions and opinions.

I thought you did really well. Based on our fun game rules only with Head Stripe Galah you would of got 5 winners out of the 9. 1st equal with Forbs.

Me and Grammalite maybe needing to upt our game if we seek redemption to improve our UDR, esp so me. I think my selection came last, (I hope Shes No Lady is ok), so I finished at the very bottom of our just for fun table scoreboard.

I get your point mate and I agree this does not look good. But I don't think there was any race fixing by Purdon. I think he made a couple of bad blunders which happened because he is not really familiar with either horses. Beyond Words is driven by others not Mark and Amazing Dream usually handled by Natalie. I think Purdon underestimated Beyond Words and payed the price for his complacency. Natalie Rasmussen... they keep going for her in the straight, she is not often beaten in a close finish. Mark does not have this gift.
