Hi all,

I am not overly familiar with racing in regional NSW & I haven't really got the time to do too much detailed research into this subject so I will make a general comment.
I for one will never begrudge any trainer for working hard & getting huge results but obviously this does cause some problems for the sport in certain areas.
But I am of the opinion that careful programming can go along way to helping this sort of situation.So maybe this is an area that can be looked at instead of throwing daggers at trainers..
Yes I know most big stables have their "second stringers" but in general,smart programming/conditions can help...this also overflows to trainers placing their horses a bit smarter.
As a hobby trainer,who works a full time job,with a small team of giveaways I have to do this..granted some areas have alot more options than others..
Tough situation in the Hunter by the looks,agreed.
