Gold Circle Numbering by draw. Load of Bullcrap. boycott july day

i see RS and MrH have commented on the July thread.

But it is totally ridiculous.

firstly should never have changed.
Secondly very frustrating the Phumelela still have the normal and correct method. have to keep reminding myself when looking at the fields.


please change it back correct method

I largely avoid KZN racing due to the unnecessary changing of the horse numbering...they said, at the time, that it had something (I stand corrected) to do with overseas customers (especially US)...
Simple question they need to ask...where do I get most of my money from? If local, then do what local customers prefer...if US, then do what US customers want...

has this new way made any new inroads ???? and if so to whose beneficial

why fix something that was working all along...were are the bright sparks that went on this change and what was the reasons?????.


THE JULY a yearly spectacle is a real joke this year with these new draw formats with this view....im sure Gold Circle TV will post on YOUTUBE soon ..how wonderful the atmosphere is etc....all b**** a total screw up.

the punters like us are the fools as changes like this should have a had public's view as well...

oh well...our command council is not the only disaster....

UK racing is still a pleasure to watch.....Roll on Goodwood Festival ...York Ebor and Ascot Champions Day...

It's like taking a book with 20 pages and tearing them out and throwing them on the floor - Sure you can still read the book but you have to spend time sorting the pages and you could well make errors when you have been used to reading a book in a logical manner (in my case over 40 years) - Sometimes its better just to pick up the pages and throw the book away - After watching all the mistakes made by Racing operators for 20 years it amazes me that punters(including owners ) are not consulted - Well done to all concerned and pat yourselves on the back for innovation - If { when?) Racing does eventually become an also ran perhaps someone like Elon Musk will employ you because your ideas are so far above the simple punter's logic...

I agree what a silly idea I would say some one was lazy and dint want to do another draw for the stall number and just decide that the one draw can suit every one. This is how they do it in Dubai now they force us to do the same.

I heard that Elon's also after the one who came up with the TIME BOMB and Futsal bets. All coupled on the tote with the incredible mind that thought up the draw concept.

Puts me off KZN racing too

Its rather like the barrier trials, only the idiots that introduced them that have anything positive to say about them. Oh and the people working for GC.

As for the weekend previews its another load of crap..


years gone by they will go race by race etc ..now its so messed up

why interfere with working material ...if youll are board, call it day hand over the reigns give it insightful people..


GG Gaming with Neil , Sheldon and gang do proper reviews on You tube i never miss them.


sad state of SA racing

I think the UK format for Gr1 WFA’s is much worse. They card in alphabetical order, how’s that for political correctness? Vomit.

Really messed things up. For what reason?
No.1 is generally the top weight, so why make the change.
Been racing for 50 years. Can't see the sense of it.:woohoo: :woohoo: Crazy

I do not like it. Absolute rubbish imho. My own betting rand spend has been decimated, because if this.

However, I am not a youngster and the new/younger Punters may prefer it. Not sure....

Let's hope that turnovers increase.
