Raconteur Stakes

What a shocking lack of class for a listed race!! 3 x maidens, 1 x class1, 3 x class2, 1 x class3 and 1 x open class? (2 wins)!!

Not much of a betting racing either! :rolleyes:

Yeah, apart from a couple of races, the meet looks more like a mid-weeker! :(

Trying not to be too negative Modem but I can see only 1 race that's anything like a 'weekend' race!?

Beat me to the punch sportzfan ;)

Just had a look at Mondays meeting, better than Saturdays but still lacking.

I think you'll find similar other states this time of year, not just WA ;)

Just take for example the poor quality fields at Canterbury tonight! I got to the stage of just backing the roughies for a bit of an interest... nil return until the last 2 then managed No Name For A Lady ($19.10 & $3.50) and Ghaliah ($8.80 place) and Kadazan in the last $132.00 & $24.30 :eek: The interesting thing was that the last winner's best performance (based on my ratings) was over same course & distance back on 10 Aug 05 against much stronger class, so would have been a value bet under normal circumstances! :lol:
