    Btw that blog was only linked to and not posted.

    Edit: And I stand by the reason I posted it on bigfooty, (in most cases) owners who take horses from one trainer to another are weak as water.
    Weak as water, how so ?

    I work in finance. If I don't provide a return for my clients equal to at least the average of my peers I'll get a degree of loyalty but if I go back to back (below par) I'm down a few clients and possibly my job. That's the ballgame.

    I agree about the posts being deleted, it's ridiculous. I just served a week's ban because the admin said I "wasn't being nice to another poster" within the thread and my answers!! Bloody stupid.

    Rosati sounds like a lovely bloke - "I'll do an Italian job on you"... Bloody hell, how silly this shit getting!

    The one thing that stands out for me, he's a bad winner as to a large degree he comes across bitter that he's not winning every race his horses enter. Doesn't he realise after this long in the game, you actually lose more than you win?

    Its pathetic that the truth is deleted.....I think Murry said in the deleted post was that The guy that won the Hunter Cup & is racing in the Interdoms is doing so under a cloud of a positive swab & others are still ripping everyone off & that Sam needs to get off his behind & do HIS JOB as harness racing is falling apart, I could not see anything wrong even if he used a few strong words that needed the blanks filled in. Big deal. Its the truth & I can not for the life of me understand why it was deleted. The sport is running negative so own up to that & try & fix it. I just hope SAM reads this forum....he should so he can find out how most people feel. Murry also said that we pay his wage....just another truth !

    I have & still do feel so bad for E.Heath for loosing that good horse excel Stride to Luke, it won 17 races, $340,000 went 1.52 what more does the guy want !!!!!!!!
    And it meet a much better horse in Sushi Sushi a number of times.

    Harness racing is a game of loyalty and mateship first, business second in my books. (I'm not saying people aren't entitled to try and earn money)
    Yin and Yang - good business decision changing trainers (perhaps), poor morals (you may disagree).
    In this scenario it's not like Excel Stride was performing poorly either. At the very least you have to feel sorry for Heath wouldn't you?

    Side points:
    Trainers are more than entitled to train any horse they're offered.
    I'd hate to be Sam Nati - he is expected to be superman.

    You have to feel for the Guys and Girls that lose nice horses to other barns. I'm missing a few years but after searching the horses mentioned in this thread and doing a search or three on the Stride horses, Neil Day lost a bunch.

    Not sure how much I add to the board but you and Triple add a fair bit. Although VVV seems to be lacking race fitness since his spell
