    I will let you in on a little secret Wayne - the main reason why horses get beat is that they are not good enough on the day which includes having a draw that they cannot overcome

    PS you sure are reading a lot into Petroff's get the lead drive lol

    I wasn't sure you understood why most horses get beat as you don't seem convinced that drivers are nearly always trying their best.

    Races 1 and 2 at Wagga tonight. Who is the worst? Tony Peacock as a trainer or Mark Pitt as a driver. If they are not laying their horses they should be.

    Last race at Ballarat tonight
    Inquiry Adjourned
    Jason Lee could be in a heap of trouble for his drive on 2nd Fav Narra Operative
    1x2 approaching bell with only the Fav behind him in a field of 7
    He dropped down to be 3 pegs at a track with no sprint lane
    You won't be surprised to hear he was HU Held Up
    HU could also mean Hung out to dry, if he was told Narra was to be INoperative tonight - NOT good enough

    Not the best drive you will see but not really a surprise either.
    I've always thought Jason Lee is a great example (and not the only one by any means) who is OK when his drive is leader, behind leader or outside leader. But when back in the field and he has to make decisions during the race is found sadly lacking.
