Never Gonna Happen...

but it's high time racing seriously contemplated having an August break in S.A.

Our tracks aren't coping and would get a chance to recover.

The fields are extremely moderate and don't produce form results.

Trainers and jocks take a holiday and horses are patently running unfit on return runs.

Horses in CT are being run from draws that trainers would otherwise never run from and are just dropped out to last under 'soft' rides.THe NHRA seems to find this acceptable!

Punters would return refreshed and chomping at the bit to have a go.

The operators are so intent on catering to reaching turnover targets and pandering to co-mingling partners that they are not doing what is best for either the wonderful animals that are the lifeblood of the game,nor the punters who fund the game.

It's a sad state of affairs.

That's what happens when you shut down tracks , obviously those who where responsible for selling did not think wisely and did not take what your post says into consideration. Money, money, money that's what it all about and fuck the rest.
