The track was repaired in time for the Tuesday day meeting last week
A rather unfortunate incident when a somebody/somebodies pranged the track up
Did the instigators get apprehended ?????
MANGLE PARK
----------------
In recent posts a couple of people brought up an issue of the track surface.
One post suggested a track bias or problem
I have asked a few people in the game and boy did I get a drilling
There is a thought that the track was undulating in certain areas and has affected some races.
About 6 months ago I posted the track surface was changed to a clay surface
and that we should be wary of any form changes etc
Well from what people have told me the clay surface is perhaps causing problems of a greater concern.
STAMENKOVIC has had a few dogs with hock and or other injuries
HOCKLEY has had about 6 dogs with hock and or other related injuries
JOVANOVIC would not trial his dogs one night due to a suspect track
They are 3 of the best trainers around, all not happy with the track[they would know]
There might be more trainers who knows.
There is talk of too many injuries on the first turn at headquarters causing this .
I find it purely coincidental at this stage despite a large degree of ardamancy from a few trainers.
Trainers v admin is miles apart on several issues , perhaps its exagerated ?????????????
Also why do the hounds in the USA get between 100-200 runs in thier careers
In Australia about 30-80 per average ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
different track surfaces ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Can anyone shed some light on this one ?

TAB HOLDINGS

TAB lady informs me that holdings on the hounds has gone up in the last few months
Thats good news for the GRSA and will give them some extra $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
MT79 suggests an increase in race prizemonies is well and truly on the cards.
Thats great for the industry and a pat on the back for the admin if thats the case.
