ON THE ROCKS
TROTTER
116 LIFETIME STARTS
0 WINS
27 PLACES
10 YEAR OLD BAY GELDING [bit like a famous threader on safooty !]
$8266 PRIZEMONEY

Did run a good 2nd last start beaten 2.3m
Gotta admire Owner trainer John Lee for battling away with this trotter
For a horse with no wins it has a pretty good strike rate for a place all things considering
Usually an on pace runner and battles on OK

Question is will OTR ever win a race ?

[powerwatcher]

You never know, i dont think it will ever win a race.. had its chance numerous times and either gallops or turns it up!!

another horse that comes to mind was ARCO BALENO, once he cracked it for a win after 100+ starts i think he went on to win another 1 or 2 didnt he??

so maybe ON THE ROCKS just needs to win one to get the ball rolling!!

[jackpot jim]

Now 117 starts without winning.

Started $23-60 and lost again
117 IN A ROW
Did anyone see the race , where did it finish ?

Put Mark WebsDERR on it in one of our stands, that will give it a 50m head start. Might have some chance then.

Mal,
who cares about on the rocks???????
I think you have too much time on your hands. Get something more exciting to do with your sparetime like watch grass grow or paint dry rather than worry about horses like this!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mal]

I do care CENTREMAN
SA is about to get Trotters claiming races on
That means we could be afforded the opportunity to claim On The Rocks

There was one scheduled but cancelled due to lack of nominations last week ?

[powerwatcher]

u must have more money than sense to even think about claiming ON THE ROCKS!!!

On The Rocks is for Sale
$3000 will buy him.

[mal]

Unplaced yesterday

$3000 ?
We could buy it if 10000 late Mals in a row win

I dunno if you'd get a good steak off it... would be a bit chewy.
