    The better 3yo's continue to pillage the lower C class races. There were 3 that they could target in Vic today and they won them all.

    I think the term ' pillage ' is a little bit harsh Kev. Once a 3 year old has won 2 races there is very little programmed for them in their age group. They are classed as 3C2 C0. Open 3 year old races are almost non existent and the majority of C0 races are programmed as 4 year old and older. It is extremely difficult to find a suitable race for these 3 year olds who have ONLY won 2 races! The Vicbred Sires series heats are imminent and good luck to those that have found a lead up race . Most of our horses have been spelling for that reason and I would rather be at the races because that's why I' m a passionate owner , breeder and horse lover .
    The Emma Stewart stable has 22 horses trialling at Melton on Tuesday , many returning from spells.
    Also , the fields for Swan Hill on Wednesday were released today. There are 6 races on the program offering very good prizemoney ; 4 races at $7K , 1 race at $5K and 1 at $10,000K. Two races have 7 starters , two have 6 , and 2 have 5. A total of 36 starters ! The punters are HRV 's priorities but how can this meeting return a satisfactory result? . Maybe a review of the tiered system , handicapping and programming are urgently required.
