Brodie Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 I am as confused as I could possibly be! Looking thru the fields for Sunday at Addington, for winners! However I am totally confused by race 2, being the 3rd heat of the Juniors Drivers Champs! The race is McMillan Equine FeedsNZ junior Drivers Heat 3 Mobile Pace!!! What the heck? Firstly it is a trotters race and yet they call it a PACE?? Secondly it says MBL that I have always taken as standing for a Mobile Start! However it says underneath that it is a STAND!!! What is going on here? Can it be confirmed that it is a 2600m standing start race for trotters rather than a mobile start for pacers??????

I always look on the HRNZ official site. and just like race 4 which is a maiden trot with their regular drivers , the mobile is not mentioned , so therefore , is a Standing Start. The mobile start races seem to always have that indicated, in the race description /title on that site. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCMILLAN EQUINE FEEDS NZ JUNIOR DRIVERS (HEAT 3) TROT $9000, 4YO & OLDER, UP TO R50 WITH COND. INV JD, 2600m Here is the race header from the HRNZ site, looks a standing start trot to me. I just went to TAB and i see what you mean. I think it is probably a mistake by the TAB mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodie Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 (edited) I am even more confused bow looking at race 5. Look I appreciate that Bubbles has not won a race in over 80 drives and is competing in the Junior Champs, and his next sin is going to be his first! However to achieve this, I do not believe that they should be giving him 2 horses to drive in the 5th race but do not think it was possible to be able to drive 2 at the same time, unless it was a chariot?

Has been quite an 'Honest' chap until now then. ?? no sins? Might be one of the 7 deadly sins in that case.? 'Envy'? or 'Lust' ?after a win. Gluttony would be best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
