Yeah, I sympathise with you for that fiasco and let's hope it is resolved soon.
However, in the race in question there must be doubts about the ride. Yet, I am sure that when this horse runs again, one of the "expert media analysts," (isn't that an oxymoron), will say that hackneyed phrase: "forget it's last run".
I am starting a campaign today:
We will not accept the phrase: "forget the run....", from here on, any commentator using this hackneyed phrase should donate $10 to a children's charity as a penalty for lack of originality.
Anyone agree that this excuse is overused and should be deleted from any media commentary?

Cheers.

I live in Sydney and we are not allowed either --- unless we shell out big bikkies --- or go to the local TAB!

Question

Merriguy,

Surely you can access TVN's service for $12 per year?
Check their website.

SR6 3:40p.m.EDST:

Funny that, the well fancied runner breaks though the barrier prior to the start and then runs down the track, traversing it's way through "traffic" and running unplaced.
When will the powers that be realise that public confidence/turnover will diminish if these events are constantly being tolerated?

I'd have been more concerned with the ride on Malcolm there that was a bit fishy certainly wasn't the most conviction in the ride and still almost got there thankfully he didn't as my money was on Mindreader but it looked asthough Malcolm should have won.

Yeah, Raw Instinct,

That horse was ridden by an apprentice, maybe he has a lot more to learn.

Cheers.

Could I encourage other forum contributors to express their views regarding what they perceive to be bad or ill judged rides by some of our supposed top jockeys.
These characters may be having a "bad" day but it could cost we punters several $k. When are these individuals going to realise that they live in the real world and their "mistakes" may cost battling punters many thousands of dollars?

Cheers

Xanadu I agree it was ridden by an apprentice but I just felt the ride lacked alot of power and want to win and it isn't like the guy is new to the game he does ride alot in town.
