Shoosh Bob, even I know not to say that in the trotting thread

From a punting perspective, there's far too many Trotting races on these cards.

And from your perspective why is that Bob? Dont they have a lot of squaregaiters in the USA where you spend/spent a lot of time???

4 weeks ago Sydney-siders were all up in arms about the Coolamons trotters day having smallish fields. The change in day didn't help Coolamon, but those within a stones throw of Bondi still offered up their opinion that the meeting should move to Menangle.

We've got a 9 horse Gp 1 (4 Vics 1 Kiwi), a 6 horse FFA and then only 2 trainers plus 3 Victorians pretty much making up a G3. What are these peoples thoughts on this?

A whole two 3yo boys from NSW in the Derby this week.

Although credit where credit is due, a 12 horse Gp3 this week. And only 7 of them are ODS. Maybe the travel or state of the track wouldn't be such an issue if you knew your horse would get around the whole way!

Put on trotters race for other classes and they would have got fields , I guess

Surprising not more Vics in the Derby and any 5 of the 7 could win.
The Bulli Trotters Cup very competitive should be a great race over the 3009m

They do mate but not saturation and 4 of 9/10 races Trotting is just too many.

I think there's just nothing that we can do here about trotting?

The Win pool for the Race 4 trot at Horsham today held only $7,618
Being a handicap it was of course a Stand but no wonder the punters had little confidence in betting - 9 of the 13 starters were ODS
Not silly, the punters made one of the other 4 runners fav but they picked the wrong one
