The money in NSW would lure most owners but not all obviously.
I still wonder if Vic does not improve with money how many would want to go to Menangle or could is another thing.
I figured that Grimson would be the go-to in NSW (but Tim Butt is not on good terms with them)
while Stewart is it in Vic despite her FFA horses seeming to dwindle of late.
There are of course a couple of other very highly regarded stables in both states

Remember the push for more even fields and favourites over $2 to improve turnover
Last night Emma had $1.25, $1.35, $1.33, $1.12, $1.05 favourites at Melton AND none of these were races for juveniles (which she tends to dominate)
at Menangle she had $1.12, $1.95, $2, $1.65
Nine favourites not ideal for turnover = sadly she is bad for racing. Maybe it is no coincidence that the demise of Victorian harness racing coincides with her domination

Wonder how she would go in NSW full time?
Emma Stewart.
Age
43
Career
3333 Wins
Group 1
136 Wins
Prizemoney
$51,583,350
Career Win %
35%
Season Win %
46%
Remarkable stats.
And I imagine that winning % does not allow for her having multi runners in so many (juvenile) races and of course she can only have one winner eg if she wins the NSW Derby it will only equate to 16.5% winning percentage as she has 6 runners

That's good then if that is the case , and no disrespect to Emma Stewart , but then other trainers can get a chance of some of the potential top yearlings purchased .
I can assure you’ve got some other really nice babies not far off racing with Emma (Stewart) and Clayton (Tonkin). It’s really exciting.
But maybe , it does not read that way . Good luck to them , they are the buyers with the money .
