Stewart Stable Remarkable

[Messenger]

Stewart and Tonkin took 5 horses to Maryborough today and none of them started longer than $1.55
4 of them were 3yo's taking on older horses
They are too smart for the programmers
The 4 had NR's between 50 - 56
Programmers with the power to tweak the fields could have put most of them in the same race (do they still do that in NSW?)
The trotter was beaten into 2nd, the shortest of their favourites ($1.04) was in the No Race and I do not know what happened there
The other three won easily

IMO , I think those with clouds hanging over their heads, that are still making a stack of money is hard to take for anyone in Harness Racing.
But they are entitled to fight the charges. But why it takes so long to hear is beyond my pay rate!!

They are not fighting the charges, they pleaded guilty. They are fighting the penalty . Most people thought they got off lightly but they want just a fine.
When I say they I mean Tonkin and Stewart as they are a training team. Oh that's right he got no penalty !!!!!
I predict it will string out a few more months then be reduced to a fine !

No offense intended Trish, just wanted to remind people they were guilty.

My mistake Rick.

And also Rick, the best thing we ever did was sell up. Which is sad .
But we would be so angry if we were still in it.

Well now that she won her appeal over not being allowed to transfer horses to Tonkin, if she is suspended it won't mean anything anyway

PP is right in that Stewards cannot afford to lose a Stay decision because once she had a Stay, she can do whatever anybody else can ie transfer horses
What he forgot to mention is Stewards create a massive loophole by not forcing people who are co-trainers to be registered as such

But all they have to say is NO I am the trainer & he is not .
