Generally, a trotter cannot go as fast as a pacer, look at Mr Zion - Group 1 winner as a pacer & trotter, his trotting times were slower than when he was a pacer!......Maori's Idol's performances when you take this into perspective, are therefore even greater!.....when he can beat the best pacers in the land at the time, as a trotter!

    I take you point, let's get this thread back on track! One thing that has come out, is that where stables have multiple runners in the same races, their strike rate get knocked around big time!

    Emma's strike rate is still holding up at around 50% winners to starters
    It was 19 from 41 according to HRA's chronicles 3 days ago and I know she has had a couple of winners since then (but not sure how many starters)

    I'm glad you know how to count backwards! Should have been a bit higher, if Gavin had forced the issue on Guaranteed!
