Jason Warren's. Not an easy place to raid being down in Mornington I would have thought. If he is found guilty hardly a glowing endorsements of the Perth stewards! IF he is found guilty.

The 'smarties'. Laughable. Rodent the decision to ride her back was purely the jockey's. Categorical. The jockey pre empted this in that morning's paper. The trainer gave no instructions because of the difficulty in having 3 runners in a small fiel…

Congrats Dan Ganderton. Lovely start to the day. Great trial, saluted accordingly and gives the favourite backers some Christmas money.

My opinion is that you guys are all spot on. WA sires generally just don't stack up but there are of course many other variables to finding a fast horse. Mums and Dads are important but they still need to be good types. Plus you can still buy easter…

None although i have had shares in a couple of horses with Aquanita. Punting wise, I like to follow gun stables like Durrant and Miller. I don't bet any where else but in Perth and if you watch just 2 trainers diligently you can eke out a small prof…

As for the data you have 'between your ears' given on another thread you said you lose every Saturday I suggest you should rely less on what's stored 'between your ears'.
-
Strong words rodent. Who wouldn't you give a horse to because they 'play games'. Perhaps a definition of what you mean by 'playing games' might be appropriate given the general negative imputation normally attached to such an expression. The naive a…

Thanks Carey. That cleared a few things up You don't deal in proof and you aren't insinuating anything. I am interested in data, just not yours.
-
I am not privy to nor interested in your data but I would suggest that if you want to insinuate these sorts of things perhaps you should show us all the facts that lead you to these conclusions? Is that reasonable?

It would take an idiot to manipulate race tactics to favour a gelding in a group 3 (albeit Perth) rather than a filly with a very good pedigree. That also suggests a short term approach in burning owners for what? A piddly collect on the punt. The s…

Aussiereds is right. Because of the difficult position of having 3 runners in a 5 horse field, the trainer reportedly left instructions to owners and tactics to jockeys. I think on this occasion Pike out rode the others and Paddy might have made a …

2 year olds can do that Mailman.

Early money with the corporates for Miss Bux. The Miller camp do like to bet early.
-
Sorry rodent. That's what I meant. FRK is a former harness trainer who has stood the test of time training thoroughbreds. I'll leave others to judge whether his results have been 'spectacular' or not.

It would have been interesting if another runner took Miss Bux on for the lead, held her out or sat outside and eyeballed her. After all, this is her first racing campaign, she has never been in traffic and is unproven at 1400. If any of these scena…

Intriguing race. Will be interesting to see if the race is handed to Miss Bux on a platter, like the Placid Ark. Dawdled the first 600, no pressure at all, won with a few more gears in hand to my eye. Can't really see where the pressure will come…

Im still not sure whether Piston is querying whether 1) Paddy had the choice of rides, 2) rode it ( Miss Bux) superb or 3) the stable money was spot on!

Hey PB. out of interest what part of Motivated's post are you querying?

absolutely. Regardless of the romantics of racing and the depths of your pockets It comes down to business sometimes. Numerous Times gelding. Sell.

sell.

Complacency is an issue no doubt. However in this industry and particularly with regard to safety issues immediate feedback is the norm and rightly so. Some issues can't wait for the allocated meeting times each year. When peoples lives are at r…

Correct CC. Been told that senior jockeys were told to 'stop complaining' when they aired their concern regarding that exact section of the track to a Senior member of staff. If this allegation is correct it amounts to serious negligence.

PB knows that the hearing has already occurred and the penalty handed down. 8 months.

Happy to move on Meat Pie. Sale results are all online although agree that sometimes the buyer is not the one who does the leg work. I don't know if there is 'sour grapes' or not although I doubt it. I reckon the horse is a ripper, as I mentioned I…

I don't agree that the horse was disappointing in starts 2 and 3. I am not defending any position because as an unrelated party I don't know and don't care about the circumstances of why the horse left the stable. The facts are however;1. Miller i…

No matter how rich you are I would imagine if you are in the game of racing thoroughbreds its better to buy fast ones. I'm wrapped for Vaughan who gets a nice horse and I'm sure Simon couldn't care less.
-
Pretty sure the 'old' stable got a great result on the punt yesterday also! Clearly the horse is a nice prospect. Must of been a nice type for a State City to fetch $47500 nothwithstanding the achievements of Xaaravid. It is Miller's style to buy on…

Maybe the owners didn't appreciate making a fortune on the punt in Pinjarra!
