    If we are seeking to raise our profile, I cannot help but feel having the Vic Cup tonight is a terrible clash with everything that is happening in the gallops today

    There is no footy on Kev and no cricket either,the working week is over and the "Everest is in Sydney so they wont get a bigger opportunity to showcase the cup. The Guineas day is huge and they cant be expected to compete with that. The only other day is Sunday at say a twilight meeting. At the lovely risk of having the site fence sitters jump all over me, this is not the strongest field going around for the showpiece of Victorian harness racing, you have Lenny , then lennny, then you have Lenny. If he does get beat so be it, but he is the only star in this field by a long way. There are a couple of up and comers and a few that have won group 3 races worth $18k each.

    The prizemoney doesn't jump out at you when you compare it to other events inc the gallops. From afar IMO it needs a big lift before they can start increasing customer satisfaction and turnover. There wont be any rain either so I hope it is a big success.

    The racing is good at Melton at the minute, the MO's are very competitive and good times are being run and there always seems to be an up and coming star competing.The betting is good as well.

    Emma Stewart had 2 first starters at Horsham today win at $1.04 - this would never ever have happened in the gallops world

    She had a third winner for the day in one of those ridiculous 1200m races

    Another three long odds-on winners for the Stewart stable at Bendigo tonight ($1.30, $1.10, $1.30). It would not surprise me if their average winning price in career/country class races is $1.50 or less. When they are the leading stable, it raises the question - are they bad for the industry (Controversial Kev tonight)

    I dont think so Kev, the horses are obviously very good especially Konan so the money goes on them. As they move up in grade they drop back to the field. And they weren't international horses either.

    A day meeting at Kilmore today is a bit of a surprise as I thought we had given them the flick.
    With Mildura on tonight, maybe it was thrown in as an extra or maybe with the gallops at Sale not metro, it is seen as an opportunity/experiment
