Why doe the VATC and other Racing Authorities still dictate prizemoney restrictions for entry into the big races.
I suspect that again this question will be asked yet again as we have a potential frontliner called "the secondmortgage" running around trying to gather money to justify a start in the Caulfield Cup. Is this fair or just stupid. Or is to make life easier for the internationals ??

Yo,
Interesting point regarding the international animals.
Do they convert the prizemoney earned by these animals to OZ dollars, because if they do they are at an advantage seeing as our currency is hardly above third world levels(To put it kindly).
It is verging on a national disgrace considering the fiasco with TAUFANS' MELODY and the fact that the protest was dismissed, if it was an Australian hoop he would have got 12 months on the sidelines.
Gotta go, so GARN THE SHARKIES

May God give 'em strength.
Jose'.

HE DID/////

Lets hope that the authorities have learnt their lesson!!!
