Brodie Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Does anyone have an answer for why Vesnina is so short today? Opened at $4.60into $3.60! Hes it is now trained by John Dun at the beach, but so short? Never shown anything on race day and is a maiden against race winners, event hough they are not much. Drawn the second row behind a horse that hasnt got great gate speed, and Vesnina always goes rough! Just wondering? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the galah Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Seems always too short on the fixed odds given its form. If they had it at realistic odds in previous starts they could have made a bit of money,but the bookies never seem to want to take any risks. Looks like a grass tracker to me who needs covered up for one run. Actually carried a flat tyre down the straight in its last start,and does look like it can win one shortly,but even though its not an over strong field,i'm with you brodie and wonder why they have rated it so short. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodie Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 There you go thats why it was so short lol. Paced like a drunken crab most of the race as if it had the pins still in. Weak field but a win is a win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the falt tyre it had that day did slow it up a bit. It got the perfect run,following the favorite and only having to make a short sprint.Still it was a good effort to win out of its grade. Just watched square dealer win.Jesse alford does a good job with his horses,and the horse gets well driven. Its horse that i used to watch down south when in the c barron stable,but it was one of those horses that they kept on the ur for some reason and never seemed to get a decent trip. Just shows you how some horses form can be turned around if they have confidence in the driver. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karrots Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) And I will just pop this here as its worthy of a quick mention. Great to see trainers step up, and a couple more noms added for the North Jnr Driver series race Camb, so all 9 North juniors will get a chance to drive 😀 Edited November 30, 2020 by Karrots missed putting series in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karrots Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) Oh and when I first come on here, not too long ago, HTP was the first and only 1 to say something sweet and wish me luck with my horsie horsie, which made me feel welcome. Hence the favouritism, or perceived favouritism. Anyway won't explain myself anymore. But that hopefully answers your question 🙂 Back to the subject at hand 🙂 Edited November 30, 2020 by Karrots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is? that's right happy .I do not have anytime for Riu as I think is should be policed by the 3 codes of racing separately in harness racing it should be run by hrnz like it was in the past. jmo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally can not see Vesnina going on with it unless it can learn to pace correctly or its career is over shortly. Wont get a weaker race than it was in yesterday and was definitely driven well as could possibly be! Terry Chmiels horse is not overly gifted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
