    The horse we cannot mention has been disappointing in his last couple of runs Kev, Not saying that he can beat Follow the Stars but I think he is capable of a little better than his last couple of efforts.

    Kevin, All very good points you raise. As I have said many times our industry is one that keeps trying to sell a secret. In the defence of our administrators we have had numerous major issues over many years that have required massive dollars to address over recent times. You can only has it a guess as to what HRNSW has had to spent in areas supporting things like Race Feilds - Corporate Bookmakers - Green Lights - Cobalt. It is still ongoing fighting to deliver the best corporate covenance and integrity. One can only imagine what Day & McDowell for instance, is costing the Industry with Legal arguments. What I know is HRNSW is waiting and praying for Taxastion funding from our State Govenment, if and when this comes they will be addressing all areas of Marketing of our sport like never before.Also average stakes increases are also well on the cards especially at the grass roots level. So hopefully The State Govenment acts sooner than later on what was said would happen. Given dollars to work with I feel the people we have in charge will do what needs to be done over a sustained period of time.So let us do our bit by giving positive vibes once we see they are following through by implementing the changes needed.

    All the best,

    He has been a bit Rich. I guess that was only his 10th start but I thought he may have had a touch of brilliance, maybe he doesn't or may he cannot sustain it further than a mile at this stage.

    ps Some good times run at Kilmore tonight considering how blustery it was and the fact that the apparent temp never felt warmer than 3°

    3yo Burnaholeinmypocket - WONT, check out this C0 win in 1.54.5 by 20m from the death. The 2nd horse, 3yo Jodis Choice was nevertheless a brilliant run first up for 4½mths coming from last

    having a bit of a tongue wag at the stable the other day and the subject of missing big name horses came up.....we know that the "blaster" is doing stud duties whilst recovering from injury and that the mighty kwin could be on the come back ,and then a few other names that suddenly went missing,namely,restrepo,guaranteed,border control,ginger bliss and a few others also....anybody out there know whats happening with any of these horses ,also i would`nt mind thinking that LJ is looking over the fence at old "trigger" and thinking will i or won`t i.

    I believe Restrepo is going to stand at Stud this year.
