@JordanWardle5@CraigNelsy@markbouris@DHughesy Thanks for your reply. I was renewable focused installing solar panels, I did the sums and it’s not cost effective. I’m sure if the sums were done on a solar farms they’d be in the negatives. Solar panel efficiency tapers of quickly and they need to be replaced. Nuclear and coal
@RoblRacing Been going on for a few years now. Plenty of horses missing runs and having to race out of their class on unsuitable tracks from wide barrier draws just to have a run, then the ratings drop again making it more difficult to get a run. So sound, fit healthy horses retire.
@chaplin_nigel@blake_shinn Then that would create a clutter down the bottom of the ratings where 45 horses are nominated for a BM65 and only 14 can run.
@DufficyRon@Austbloodstock It would be easier to drop the prize money to $2.5m and have no fees. I brought this up 10 years ago and got told nobody would race for that money
@blake_shinn@DanBeasley111 I’m glad you’ve brought this discussion up. I can’t speak for the whole country but in Queensland the pool of horses rated below 60 is huge. Once you get to 50 it’s nearly impossible to gain a run in the preferred race. To gain a run they start in a BM70 or a poly track
@hvasstan@ghall27@SENGiddyUp She’s a horse on the way up. No need to dig the slipper into the previous trainer. At least he wasn’t greedy and gave her every chance moving her to Melbourne. The addition of blinkers and sitting off the pace has probably made a difference. I’ve had horses with both trainers.
@Matt__Welsh_ First start, she was green, still didn’t know what she was doing. She won her next 3 and ran 2nd to Autumn boy while she had no favours being caught 3 wide in the run. Moody/Coleman have just got a good horse on the way up. P.s I’ve had horses with both trainers.
@Quinny_1 A lot of credit has to be given to Kris Hansen. Perfectly educated and his foresight to move her to Moody/Coleman when her talent was unearthed 👏
@sszinglehead@Peter_Fitz If you think it’s funny, I don’t know what sort of sick person you are. Too many people are struggling out there and the government couldn’t care less. Time to have a good look at yourself.
@AdamHSport@TheCreekAlbion It’s a pity the grandstand is missing from the 50m to the winning post. Don’t think there’s any track in the world like it and we have the best pacer in the world.
