PENNY FARE WTF!

Greg,I have pages of proof of NHA rules( at least 6 different important rules) transgressions that have been ignored by our regulators..........there will come a day.
So to answer your question........NO.

Just googled "race horses suspended for inconsistency" and this thread comes out on top ....while you are there try googling the word "askew" and watch what happens to your page :S

Interesting point...........can the authorities continue to ignore the opinions of forumites with cotempt if Google doesn't...........if anybody was googling opinion to get a feel of horseracing they would only get one side...........and mostly an unfavourable one..........perhaps they should consider interacting on that basis alone?

at the risk of getting shot at . kings Castle actually ran an improved race last time out . Pettigrews horse won really easily that day and to be fair the 5th race today was a weak race overall .The favorite was a crazy price in that field imo . I will venture to say that the divine invitation race will produce some good results . just my opinion .

guys i stopped playing jhb,pe kimb racing some time back because anything goes.i knew that a couple of carryovers is in order this week because of the july.it always happens and believe me this wont be the last.granted jhb racing is in the doldrums with no more top trainers like in past years some of the results are just too shocking to be true and yet no trainers are questioned or anything of the sort.its becoming embarrasing and racing has turned into nothing more than a lottery.

Solo I agree with u about King's Castle.If u go back to his formline on Formgrids or Winning Form or Sporting Post u will see he was the only runner to have raced with Slumdog Millionaire at level wts finshd 8.25 l behind @ odds of 100 to 1.
Think 9 wins come out of that run inc GR1 SA Classic R2million.
Surely the fav Al Rashid was too cramped odds ? I mean run 2 races over 2000mts then drop to 1800mts plus last run trvld to KZN.

You must be commended for highlighting this sudden improvmnt of Penny Fare as some good can come of it, taking into account Sporting Post criticism of a runner form the Spies yard that imprvd beyond all xpctations and resulted in more consistency from the stable runners thereafter.

Shame, I find it quite sad that some people still live in lala land and actually think that studying form will actually produce a consistent result.
Wake up.
Go spend some quality time with your lived ones and spend your money on them rather than chase some form phantom.

Geewiz, God has spoken...()

avanza the fact that you believe that studying form is a waste of time is laughable but what is really sad is that you feel one has to choose between spending quality time and money on our loved ones or on racing....the vast majority of us do both...bet with your head not above it and your bitterness will subside....if you cant do that then best you stop racing or you may finish up living in malofa land ....

Apart from being a really nice human being, solo is one of the best form studiers i have ever met. I find it insulting that you choose to have a go at such a lekker oke.

Solo (won't mind me saying) has in the past made huge money punting and will do so again as soon as his staking head is back on. He does all of that from form studying alone and consistently shows a profit on paper, unfortunately like others (me too) his tilt level is set quite low.

He refuses to "listen to graft" and still hits the target more times than many....i suggest a head to head with him.

Avanza (well connected) V Solotrama (purveyer of fine form)

Stooooooop the bus.
I meant no direct insult at Solo. So apologies if offense was taken.just commenting on the subject matter of the thread.
Perhaps my posting born of frustration(past tense), but I do stand by my opinion that form is a frail bench to park your backside. And there should be absolutely NO surprise that we have these 'what the heck' results.
Additionally I did find form study robs me of hours of time that are better spent doing more constructive things that do in fact yield a predictable result.
And I don't think I am alone in my opinions. In fact i can strongly recommend that a lot of punters consider this option, and admit to their addiction that ultimately lightens their wallets.

....horses for courses 3 runs 2 places at the track.....:S and I no form studier....made this an outright bet..... but ran out of ammo
