MONTE FOR GDP SATURDAY NIGHT

[The reigning Ben.C]

I'm aware of that. But telling me to get off (or in your words OF) the thread is a bit rough.
They ride trackwork and races in the carriage so i'm sure they're not accustommed to riding them under the pressure of race conditions sitting on their back. Tell me i'm wrong there.

your wrong, all the riders trialled in races before the field selection and in addition to that most of the riders rode last year.

was telling you to get off as you were making a statement based on no facts or knowledge, rather than aking a question!

[dodgingandweaving]

Sounds like there's an element of danger involved? Instead of being in the sulky, they're taken out of their comfort zone and are jockeys for a race, something they wouldn't be accustommed to? I wonder how the riders feel about this?

how many question marks do you see there? I see 3.
Can't read, nor spell?

mate its the wording in the sentence which warrant it as a statement or a question.

its like me saying. wow, its rained today?

[dodgingandweaving]

Your right, i put those question marks in for comedy value.

I was asking the question, because as you have pointed out - I don't know a whole lot about what goes on at the Trots, all i see is them going around every now and then on the big screen.

when i was involved in the industry it was common practice to break yearlings in to be ridden as well as the sulky no driver will ride if they dont no how. i hope this clears it up, lets all get on with backing winners

QUESTION

Would the lighter weighted feMALe jockeys have an advantage over some of the heavier MALe jockeys in this race ???

QUESTION

i think so that's why i ask should weights be declared for the race

[mal]

bayman, no one is suggesting that its not a bad novelty event and even a spectacle,
BUT its an ABSOLUTE JOKE that its held as a leg of all the Multi's across the country

Whatever browny points the new chief has accumulated were just flushed down the scheitzen with this non sensical decision. The industry needs people punting and this is not an event the serious punters let alone the Multi punters are interested in.

Mickey Crime spoke the chief in person on Tues, Not sure he is completely to blame. Vic are doin some of the SA admin work. The chief didn't realise what had happened until it was pointed out to time by a few people.
Micky C is like you mal, said there is No way he will be investing like he usually does on Quads and trebs. Without Mal and Micky C investing like usual there is guarentee to be a huge difference in the pool sizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The info spot on Centreman
It was an oversight to have this race as race 5
There is an apology made thru the media this morning from within the SATC

G didja get on ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Mals Monte gets up
$3-70 + $1-80

[centreman]

Very interesting to see on unitab there was $200 less in treble pool BUT $1000 more in the Quaddie pool compared to last week with the monte the 2nd last leg in both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And on Supertab $11600 compared to last weeks $12400.
So did the monte being a leg make any difference?
When so many people said they won't take them cos of the monte!!!!!
Any comment from the leading multi players?

[G]

Although I stand by all of my comments about the programming of the "Monte", I have to admit I still took Quaddies.
I think it was more out of habit and hoping to stay alive so that I didnt have to bet on the rest of the crap program
-Very thankful to receive the REAL late MAL's from the man in person at Footy Park today

[centreman]

I've been told micky crime didn't spend the same amount he normally would on smash qads and trebs!!!!!!! Meeting wasn't worth it!!!!!!

[G]

Ive been hearing a fair bit of that lately, but his brother was very keen and eager to seek out the late MAL's at 1/2 time today and was under strict instructions to keep it to himself
