    Ash you had better start waxing lyrical about the trotters - there are so many trots races nowadays I might need you to convert me.
    Three last night at Melton and three tonight at Ballarat!

    Talk about a experience that makesyou reassess your participation in the industry.

    Had a horse shatter a leg @ Newcastle that had to be euthenised.

    Does not happen very often in harness racing but hard to take.

    Sorry Kev, i'm a few days late on your request!
    Last weekend old news now but today nicely showed how those "useless trotters" can make you a dollar if u watch, but really watch whats goin on!
    Race 1 Qld today.
    Winner pays $81 on Supertab, Exacta $671 Tri $547 and First 4 actually a disappointing $2732.
    Watch the replay of her first start last week. SFF gave the leader about 40-50m headstart, didn't make up too much ground beaten by that horse by about 35odd metres. That horse No Bones About It doesn't mind galloping at start, last week went away well did well beaten by far better horse. This week Amelia Pond would b better for 1 race in SS experience, fitness and as you do with trotters hope that lucks on your side.
    Today No Bones loses the odd 50 at the start, Amelia leads and IMPORTANTLY as she did last week, trots, doesn't gallop, only has to beat the 50m back marker Last Sunrise who has done a lot of work...
    Bingo, its time for 3 trotters races at Menangle.
    Race 1 not much happening fourth horse puts me out of first 4.
    race 2 As you master Kevin have showed recently, odds on pops go down about 50% of the time, great first 4, great Tri
    race 3 3rd horse puts me out
    Horsham trot another odds on with a 50% chance? nope about 10-25% chance i reckon, good ability but mental case will either win or near last with better chance of last than first, finishes 144m from winner. First 4 $3200.
    However didn't have 1 freakin dollar on anything!
    Got pumped at work today didn't see any races until replays on iPhone about 4pm! Have gone thru 2 boxes of tissues so far...
    Without a word of a lie could very well have been a 40k plus day.
    Some days things all just go as you hoped/planned, of course many other days they don't. And these are the days of our lives!!! lol.

    Ash I am not sure if I am becoming interested in the trotters or whether your writing is just too good to stop reading.

    Clinton is actually older than Gary Jnr. and has held a licence for many years. Hardly inexperienced.
