my guess is that RWWA have tried to allow as many west bred horses as possible to nominate to try and ensure a full field for the Cupmy initial thought was that Hillview Bondi should be in the field and the two L6 horses in Nomorecheeseplease and Ro…

Jay Jay - not only had Harry not popped off ages ago he was actually still involved with the horses pretty much to the end as he was helping Patrick at GP trackwork up until 6-12 months agoHe was also a midweek GP race meeting about six weeks ago RI…

Jay Jay posted a few months back that P Schrader wasShort changed by those stats on HRA....662 wins over 350 in Perth and considerably more than a million plus in prizemoney. Those stats are "post computer" figures and for anyone of a "mature" age a…

Mick(from memory) ran the pool and from memory put up some or all the money - $3 a swim back then and if Mick wasnt there Wally Mitchell had a key to the gates- didnt suit all horses but Pirates Cove for his owner Chariots improved immensely in a ve…

Not quite sure what you are after here Freo. But Sharach had been around a lot of blocks before lobbing at Taylors. Bernie Cushing and Ben Geerson knocked up winning races with him long before he won the Pacing Cup. Frances used to swim Sharach in …

wagin would have been R penalty but were C penalty when MC was introducedhorses take a HWOE penalty for wins only2yos 25% 3yo 75% so it was always part penalty and there were aways caps on the penalties (see attachment)

for the last 50 years the winners of feature races have received the same penalty as the winners of non feature race winners whether those races were country cups run in the country or metro races run at GP they took either a C or M penalty. I took …

chariots also saidI am reluctant to enter the handicapping debate and must admit that I have made no attempt to study or understand the current system. one thing I think all three of us could agree upon is it would be better if 3yos didn,t get non …

The problem with what you’re arguing against JayJay is that if you cop the whole $ penalty for winning a feature race they’re just not worth winning and almost career ending, running second in those big races when you were taking the full $ for winn…

Not related to this but I was looking up something in the 1977/78 year book and the name Go To It jumped off the page. I remember Colin Brown drove his first ever winner on Go To It at York in 1976 and on September 23 1977, Go To It wins at GP for P…

Yes Col, that's the "Meteor Mile" referred to above, February 15th, 1969....$3,000 for first and $500 for 2nd and 3rd. Dainty's Daughter (4/6) beat Renaud (4/1) and Radiant Oro (2/1)in a world record 1.58.8 for mares on a half mile track. From memor…

from memory(so could be wrong) there was a "three horse match race" that Daintys Daughter won against i think Renaud and another horse that has escaped the memory bank - from memory I backed one and saved on the other betting against daintys daughter

See jack cockell trained a treble at norseman races on Saturday see he has trained winners at 26 different race tracks since 2001, would say he would have trained a winner at nearly every harness track in w.a. over the journey even the ones that h…

Greg Oneill and Terry French (owned Sir David) may/may not have fielded when two or three bookies were down near where the horses go onto the track - could also be wrong era

Charlie Skehan was also Mr Saver but was never betting supervisor. Graeme Bennier may have been the betting supervisor immediately prior to Jack. Mr Saver(always thought it was Mr Sabre) was marching a couple of guys off the course at GP after a …
