race one looked nearly as bad, as those name guys were all in a race to see which one could do it the worst.

i had 2 beers..and i didn't enjoy them with water dripping everywhere. they have the good idea of buying tickets for drinks..saves a heap of time at the bar with no money changing hands....PR take note for busy days.
i bought 3 and gave the last one away...tells the story, eh?

I'd be happy with the doubling of prize money if I owned him. 14 runs to earn 60k, 1 run to double it.
keep him in the staying races as long as he is earning and pick off as many country cup runs you can...or retire him if not up to the mark, cos he will never get enough runs to bring it down into the 70's again!!!

he went from 74 to 72 to 70, and if you watch those races then you would realise just how BAD wa handicapping is.
and that is not even accounting for the fact he was on the up as far as condition goes.
the cup was a 90+ so the reality is that he only got 2 points for winning???
i thought he would probably go to 94, but whatever.
according to cris it was a 90+ and going by the weight of those not ooth then that is what it was.
if you are meaning the cris conditons(METRO - HCP (-2) 90+), then the -2 there, just means the race was scaled 2kg stronger than your normal open hcp which is according to them an 86+
so in this case it was an 86+ plus 2kg*2 = 86+4 = 90
it is easy to check rio
all you need to do is check the weights and corresponding ratings of those above the minimum
for instance.......
lords ransom weight=59 rating=100
take the weight(59) away from the limit(54) =-5kg and multiply it by 2 to get rating points =-10 + 100 =90
pretty obvious why people get confused though.

You've had a fair bit of fun out of Hibernian Bomber and it may not be over yet.
I see that Noske was fined for using the whip 2 times more than allowed before the 100m mark. Now I am not saying by any stretch that that this was the reason why Destroy won. But it begs the question to me, is a fine significant enough and is there grounds to protest if you think the rules haven't been adhered to? What if Reprisals connections said to the stewards before correct weight, hang on, i think he used the whip ïllegally"in that race. Would anything be done about it, or is this just petty?
a protest for excessive use of the whip is a very frightening prospect...the race is, say, lost then the connections of "the winner" then sue the jock....we don't even want to think about it.
if it happens, let it happen over east and let them ponder over it....God knows what "the blind mice" would do. 8-X
