Bookielover you’re correct the demise of the Bookmaker / Bookies ring is to the detriment of the Excitement of the Sport .for the non participant. The Excitement the Theatre of it all nothing gets me going more than a story of a Plunge it’s Addicti…

Jay Jay if he didn’t do what he did . Victoria Racing would do NSW what RWAA will do to Harness in WA if the proposed changes aren’t maximised to achieve best outcomes for all industry members. Divisive Yes but seems to achieve best outcomes for tho…

There is always resistance to change that’s Human Natue I’ll be the first to admit . In Jay Jays defence would a independent review from Peter V Landry’s be the worst $1 million that the WATA could spend? Because if this were to go wrong Mamma Mia!

I think that irregardless of track location or size as a industry we need to discuss what we want .Do we require the on course experience ( is it truely viable economically ) or for reasons of economics are we going to become a Gaming / TV experien…

How Sad that years of Mismanagement & Poor Asset / Product initiative we find ourselves in this situation of being cornered into selling in order to guarantee the short term future of Harness in W.A . The question I pose is the Fundamentals wh…

Don’t be fooled about not being able to build on reclaimed land or land that doesn’t have a stable base that is what piling is for example all high rise buildings in the CBD / Burswood Building’s / The Stadium across the Road . Lend lease have vast …

Jay Jay that night was electric ! In my view the pinnacle of the Halcyon Days then again as a 7 year old The Moscow Circus at the Entertainment Centre was awesome. One name struck me that I hadn’t heard in 42 Years but I recalled it in your post Ul…

Don’t know if it’s my perception but Ronald Scott’s legs just prior to final bend resembled The Road Runner . Very impressive performance.

Jay Jay Heats are definitely a winner IMO When there were heats for all the Classics & Cups previously was it a matter of high stakes racing compared to the common income of the time ? The reason I ask is if this was so would it correlate to h…

Is this not a forum if a individual expresses there concerns or opinions it’s there point of view correct or incorrect in another individuals opinion . I don’t know KTQ or have any affiliation with the Stable but to launch into KTQ is to the point…

Best you know Chariots as you made a profession from Race Analytics. But all the other Horses behind the front 2 had there chance .Perhaps you could inform me / us the number of times a horse coming 3 Pegs @ G.P wins a race . I can’t offer up any h…

From my own Personal Experience Pinjarra has always been a good Track for Hot Favouites getting beat . Remember many years ago a write up in the West about Shattering Class he was low flying at that stage I believe the article was possibly setting a…

Freo you are in all likelihood correct but the instructions could’ve been your on a 100/1 pop Barrier 7 no one gives you a chance sit outside Bond Runner that leads give the leader hell while enabling C.B the sit this didn’t occur . I have no doubt…

One has to give credit where Credit is Due upon reflection Callan drove for luck but considering tractability issues with the horse at G.P he achieved in gaining W.W the most advantageous run minimising any issues for the horse . I suspect he’s ol…

STG the M.Storm team would know better than anyone in regards to horses condition in the last 3 Runs wouldn’t be surprised if horse is flat I suspect . But the experience in racing FFA will do him good as bullying the opposition as in prior campaign…

This race has the potential to really highlight how good WA Pacing can really be on our small track which I love. Barrier Draw has enabled a myriad of possibilities . Pace of the Race will be red hot I believe attacks will be becoming from the 1600…

Thanks for letting us know Rocket . Apologies to R.Bell & connections I forgot to include Shockwave. What a quartet of Stars!

If Harness had a rating system like Thoroughbreds which current WA Pacer would have the highest rating that is racing this Friday Night on current seasons form?
-
I’d say the step up to FFA for Magnificent Storm has shown he’s not quite Lazarus but give him credit his first 2 preps in Perth were outstanding some of those performances in the Breeze spectacular. This prep maybe the making of him I don’t think h…

Jay Jay as a point of interest has there ever been a Charter / KPI given by RWWA indicating to clubs what they require/ want in order for those clubs to be sustainable ? Apart from stating the obvious you will require a shitload of money!

Bob is his own man Self Made I believe.? Bobs been breeding very good horses for a extended period of time with excellent Group 1 wins both in WA and Australia wide. Has been recognised internationally as well . You have to hand it to him a very ca…

Firehouse would have to be on that list surely it’s the state of affairs at the TAB

I totally agree that both cups should be stand alone on their own merit. Unfortunately the last 2-3 years Both Cups have been Lame Excuses for Crowd Numbers. It’s Sad to see the Codes 2 biggest races have crowds only slightly bigger than a normal Fr…

And see this is racing’s biggest problem It lends itself to these type of stories every decade. It’ll never change
-
Jay Jay I don’t know how it corresponds to traditional date/s and how it would affect both the horse & the trainers programme for his / her steed . But I think the date has been continuously changed over the last decade ? Having a big crowd is…

What I can’t comprehend is that this thief does his time minimal in my opinion meanwhile , 1- Child Welfare Agencies have a reduced budget.Families exposed to greater hardship. 2- The Racing industry is Tarnished wallowing in Quicksand to a predete…

But the question is how can a thief be left to his own devices for so long ? Gross incompetence in Accountability of Monies by WA Government. Questions of Accountability to arise also in the Racing Industry in regards to Real Estate Deals / Transac…

One can’t deny it 800m tracks forcing the issue in the high grade races . G.P Inters H.P Inters probably the most entertaining as a spectacle.
-
Don’t ask me why but NSW of late seems to lack Energy / Enthusiasm in regards to last couple of Inters held there . Gives a feeling of manufactured interest .

Unfortunately the Country is looked in a different manner by City Centric Administration & Managemt extremely sad but it’s the truth . JAY JAY totally different subject but does Wagin have its own Agricultural Show ? and could at least one of t…
