Nothing strange about it MJB.

Th previous trainer obviously had some notion that he was a sprinter, but even my friends, who know nothing about racing styles and the horse himself, could see that he needed at least 1400m.

Plus Sandown and Flemington are perfect courses for him. To be honest the horse should never race under 1400m ever again, but of course, that will not happen.

They are going to target the CS Hayes and Australian Guineas -both at Flemington in the Autumn

Gone to Waller

He is 3 so no.

I was backing this horse in Sydney. I wonder what Ed O‘rourke, his previous trainer, now thinks of the improvement he showed under Weir

Personally I thought his last 3 runs under Weir, the horse improved out of sight o; what he’d previously shown

I'm no expert but I liked this horse from the start - seemed to be a talented but lazy type who dramatically learned to put real effort in under Weir.

Okay is he staying in Melbourne?

The horse is at least four lengths better, the Melbourne way of going, why does old matey Chris need another horse!

Havent the owners heard of Hawkes, Ellerton Zahra, Price, Kennewell or McArdle.

These poor bastards must be wondering what they have to do to grab a good horse!

Big rumour going around that Waller is going to take up residence at Weir’s Ballarat complex.

It’s been in the press for two days.

Waller and Maher will be opening at Ballarat

Mark my words

I’ve heard the same thing.
They were on the phone Wednesday afternoon apparently

Mega stables

Now is the time to look at what is the appropriate size any trainer should be licensed to train?

The bigger the stable the harder it is be fully responsible for every aspect of their business.

Peter Moody looked almost relieved that his juggernaut stables were sold off and he was able to reset his priorities.

Maybe even Weir might welcome the break to reset his priorities!

Sometimes you get too big and are swept up in a wave of invincibility and your morals and ethics just get lost in the tsunami of success.

Look at the way the mega banks seem to have lost their way over recent times.
