Is there a place for Standing Start races if we are looking to maximize market share

[Richard prior]

Great reply William, Yes the decision to scrap the standing starts is definitely driven by the all mighty punting dollar but the problem is as a few people have touched on, We will see more short priced favourites and that's not good IMHO, I personally think it's a very poor decision by HRV and at the very least, They should have left the standing start Cup's as they were and experimented with the other races being all mobile and then compare the pools between the 2 different types of races.

Not seeing many Stands nowadays even though their demise is not scheduled until September 1
R5 at Maryborough today attracted a good Win pool even if the Tri and F4 were a bit down
