    Funny thing about random barrier draws is that it doesn't seem that random at times!!.You see horses that seem to get just dream draws for 4 or 5 starts in a row while usually your horse just cant draw a barrier...and when you finally do..the horse isn't going as good as it was!!! pheeww!!...tough game.

    Yep, happened exactly that way with one of mine. Outside front, inside the back with a tortoise in front. Frustrating as hell, but what do you do?

    Especially tough in an even field, Just need to grin and bare it and hope for luck in the run.

    [QUOTE=The Escape Club;45605]Random barrier draws, they don't deserve anything other than where they've drawn.
    Definitely luck of the draw as you can attest to Rob with your bloke, I had a similar thing with my bloke drawing pretty crook a few times and throw in the shenanigans that were going on at Mildura when he was there and it was extra tough, The TV was nearly launched off the balcony a few times lol.

    Could imagine some of you blokes at a roulette table or 2up. Its been tails 3 times in a row it deserves to be heads.

    Correct, random is random.

    I am not sure Greg Sugars will be driving Don't Hold Back in the Derby final as I think that win is going to earn him a holiday. As much as I dislike the sprint lane (and wish there was an alternative), it is strange that Ballarat does not have to have one

    Here comes the West Aussie, Big win by Sprinter Rod, Gary Elson has a very serous horse on his hands there.

    The draw didn't matter too much for Sprinter? Cant believe how under rated he seems with the punters last night.

    Maybe they read too much into Ideal Tyson's failure?
