    Six of the ten winners belong to two trainers waiting on positive swab outcomes.

    This has been biting me for a long time,i use to be a member of PR and Waroa and a share in some horses, but as i dont go often now i pulled the pin,to start PR of whaat you pay and the times i go all i was doing was funding the socialtes upstairs i use to walk passed there and see the ones in there,they had never had a horse in there life or dug into there wallet to have a bet,now to the ownership part they have there upstairs for owners all yu get i one drink voucher wow use to get something to eat no wonder they now say they make money,and you see ones up there who have never had a horse in there life,they wouldnt know the back of a horse to the front of a horse,PR you have known trainers media for years you walk past them you say hi they dont acknoledge you,its but then there are some trainers or thyere family at least say hi but there are some who are so snobby and stuck up.thats why we all now quite often go to the trots on a friday  night now,quite enjoyabe an relaxing.

    Well placed sources say the WA Derby was the worst attended in decades. As I don't live in WA anymore, can someone tell me if Perth Racing still charge an entry fee?  

    The on air quote "going through tough times" is not worthy of a high priced legal defence that is tactically being drawn out to lessen the offence.

    Terrible crowd, boring atmosphere. Know it has been said many times but prices for everything way over the top.

    I had a look at fields they where shocking,
    Derby was a disaster with a 9 horse field,what happend,other years been a capacity field Bob use to have 3-4 in it,that doesn't surprise with the attendance,yes would gave been $35 entry fee,Quokka and Karrakatta this weekend be interesting,and they won't admit to it being a poor attendance.

    Unlikely to have been $35 when you can get tickets to the Quokka for $30

    I saw tickets for $30, but may have had conditions on those tickets, like you cant go within 200m of the winning post  :))

    I think they are using a flawed strategy. Money is a bit tight for a lot of folks and this is putting Racing out of the hands of a lot.
