    Menangle Review

    Just as Melton Metro meetings are always going to evoke discussion and now have a thread so too should Menangle. Let's start it off today as NSW have so much money they can run Metro meetings on Tuesday afternoons!

    Where did you get the Metro meeting from Kev the $15,000 races were heats of the Breeder's Challenge and the 2yo trotters was special race final for the 2yo trotter's.

    Metro stakes by Vic standards got me excited Greg. If we had a meeting like that down here there would be no Metro meeting (maybe a couple of Metro races surrounded by country class)

    Just caught up on all yesterday's action. Although it's nothing of real importance, I couldn't help but feel that every race I watched had a Panella driven leader. Went thru and double checked.....sure enough, 6 drives, 5 leads and 1 death seat. Reminded me of the times in years gone by when u could almost guarantee that Kerryn would have one of her fathers outside of the lead if not in front. One things for sure, u pretty much know what u r going to get for your money.

    IMO
    best performances- Aspiring Artist, Chariot King, Ive Gottalife, On Thunder Road.
    best drive- Panella R5
    head scratcher- T McCarthy R1
    Cheers

    Brent, you inspired me to venture over the border in replay land and I can see why you nominated R5 for Lauren's drive

    Not sure how Brave Wiggy was drive of the night? Monarkmac was far superior. The joke of Change of Tactics raised it's ugly head again. Suave Stuey Lombo further back. Can the stewards say no you can't chop and change your tactics every week so you manipulate the race?

    You're spot on here Jack...
    He's a go forward horse and he's rock hard race fit!!!
    So they take he horse back to last and not give him a hope in hell of winning???
    I wonder of those tactics would be different if the horses were owned in different interests???
    Surely they have to give every horse in that race the best possible chance...

    You got me to watch the Monakmac replay Jack (nowhere near the usual quality you expect on Trots TV either) and I still disagree. Monakmac just got lucky - Brave Wiggy driven to put a space in them was winning tactics

    I think it might be a 'Lauren' thing with Jack
