Only 4/12 blowing their chances? Seems like its been more successful than most years!
Why the pacing fraternity put up with this is beyond me. Clearly screwing over punting revenue potential for the pacers and thus prizemoney.

It certainly was. The winner was tough but how about Prince Of Rock, kept coming 3 wide beaten a nose when $181.80 on the tote

I’m loving this meeting. I would love it if we only had trotters in Oz. If it’s good enough for them in Europe …
Also re The Locomotive. Is it ever a good idea early in a distance race to leave the running line to go three back on the rails. The horse went well though.
Agree re excellent race.
Winners dam won a QLD and Aust Oaks - pacing
I actually thought N Jack made the right move during the race. May have ended up one pair further back than he wanted but you would have expected the running line horses to drop out not the marker line horses to drop out. So many 2600m races first 3 or 4 home are first 3 or 4 on the fence - especially given starting prices of said horses. Drive was great, just didnt turn out as expected.
Agree, nothing wrong with Nathan Jack's driveOriginally Posted by aussiebreno
