Gin and Swanic was strong in the market but pulled it's head off. They are horses not machines

Does anybody think we will ever see a race like Takeover Target vs Apache Cat again if we leave the Masters as is?

I like the 1 week concept to try get the general public to embrace racing like Melbourne do with the Spring carnival. It's hard enough to get them into racing for more than 1 or 2 days a year let alone 2 weeks. For us diehards you could run it over …

Agree prize money needs to increase if the better horses are to be enticed. Think bonuses for winning or even placing in multiple races like Railway, KT and Cox to encourage raiders to stay for multiple runs rather than a hit and run. Could do th…

Hasn't copied across well across from Word but hopefully my post still reads well and makes sense

Why does the inside horse have a shadow and not the outside horse? Can't believe this has got so much airtime. There is a margin to the inside horse on the official photo. Who gives a toss what it looks like on the TV

Also had a look at Southwell UK but they weren't racing.

Syrely a smart rider will suffice for entry so why not just throw the doors open to everybody

Lazy 50k for 3rd

Unless it's been edited the facebook post from Perth Racing makes no reference to the footy on Sunday. It says catch the train, show your train ticket and get free entry.

Yes was just dreaming with that thought - he's $13 for the 3200m Sydney Cup one week before... that race has prizemoney of around $2million. Enough said. Did you get on riders? It was a good thing after your call for it to target the WA Cup

If they did have a match race just between those four i wonder what the odds would be of them finishing 1 to 4 for the third time in a row ? b-( So long as none of them fell it's guaranteed as they are the only 4 runners

J Brown doing a good job of embarrassing himself on twitter. Not the first time, won't be the last

Don't think pushing it out later in Jan is a good idea. The quality of the field seems to get worse every year and this will only make it harder to get a quality field. Will look a Bunbury / Pinjarra cup if they go that way.What about resurrecting B…

Looked like a very slowly run race. Cappo was no better than 4 deep without cover yet was still able to run 2nd.

Where are the WA Autumn feature markets? These are usually up by now.

Horse pretty much has to lead to win. No serious attempt to lead then just restrains and restrains and restrains until the horse is near the rear. Forget about the locked wheels. It chances were gone before that. Runs a distant last

Not sure I've ever seen a reinsman try as hard to make sure his horse absolutely no chance than Kyle Harper on Bettors Fire

Something worth pondering why does Worwood and the McGrath/Kelly/Replacement role even exist still.How many race clubs have a role that Kelly had? I'll guess none and that these guys are normally employed by the media outlet that broadcast the races…

He was terrible, did anybody at Perth Racing listen to his voice recorded before giving him the gig.Worwood is no good either but I assume he is only filling in again until a replacement is sought.
