Joe Bloggs Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Perusing the fields for Saturday one is alarmed at the semi-absence of the once mighty Pike stable? Only 3 runners in the Waikato on a huge day and only 1-2 at Taranaki? This time of the year Tony is usually full on........Te Akau have huge numbers, even dwarfing the entries/acceptances Waller perpetrates on SYD racing, in all my life I've never seen a stable dominate numbers like TA.....the maiden 1400 is an example, at least Waller holds up some races in SYD, although a few trainers I know personally dodge Waller as they can't get the jock they want. I can't remember Pike being so low on numbers, surely there is another reason? A behemoth stable like that with so few runners?........Marsh seems light on also, nowhere near the limited offering Tony has produced, is there something going on up there? Massive day of racing Saturday, here and there, will TA train the card? Will the bookies be betting on how many winners Walker will train?...........Heavy track a certainty in Syd, could be bottomless, might just have a bo peep at NZ racing then, God help me, anyone tip me a winner.........?

I know nothing JB, but you may have answered your own question, it's clearly an issue for many though the industry will never concede that to be the case . On a positive note it'll keep Chief Stipe happy 😊 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
