Demerit, Thank you everyone for all the wishes during the past couple of weeks, it has been truly overwhelming for everyone at Taunton Vale and at Hamlin Bay Thoroughbreds. 'DEMERIT' is now back at home on the long road to recovery and we look forwa…
-
Thanks again everyone for the thoughts. 'Demerit' remains at Murdoch in a sling and will remain unchanged for the next 14 days. This period is absolutely crucial and he is a long way from being home. Fingers and toes crossed he digs in deep for the …

Thanks guys, we really owe it all to the brilliant staff at Murdoch and for a big fella who is going to be missing out on all the fun this season 'Demerit's calm natured self has really made it easier for the team down there.
-
Good afternoon all, Just to update you all,'Demerit' is still at Murdoch and it has been due to his laid back and well mannered nature he has done remarkably well in recovery and whilst not out of the woods yet, every hour that goes by he is slowly…
-
Thanks guys, your thoughts are all very much appreciated.

Good evening everyone. I can confirm that this morning Demerit was involved in an incident at Taunton Vale Stud that has left him fighting for his life. At this stage I won't be leaving too many details other than the fantastic team at Murdoch are …
-
Funny enough, I actually heard it whilst I was in Melb. Either way, if he was so much as in the running for the job he must be doing something right. I am not even going to bother talking about his theory around the path that was planned for our 2yr…
-
Just to clarify, it was Darley who approached him about the job and he said 'no' as he has some very loyal owners here in Perth. Having a few horses with Simon I have to say he is very professional and personally we have seen great results from him …
-
@RIO i feel your frustration with everything that is going on... Or lack there of and I also agree that if people weren't there they probably shouldn't comment. Wez is a great guy and at the end of the day he is working with what he's got, he isn't …

@ColourfulRD dont get me wrong, I am a little surprised they didn't atleast have a crack at a protest. Was probably a better chance than some of the stupid ones that get fired in Perth that's for sure.
-
@ColourfulRD i know where you are coming from but to be fair she was well and truly running away from them without being pushed. Can only imagine what would've happened had it been in town.
-
I have had s good look myself and will be going over. I have had a chat to a few people at Darley and they have good things to say about a few of them. Obviously won't be world beaters but some good wins in them for sure.
-
@Super Snoop hahaha gotcha I actually wasn't blaming him for my lacklustre day. I was just pointing out how bloody ordinary he has been of late. Maybe he needs a holiday? Seems to have worked for a few of them. Jockeys and horses both need a freshen…
-
@RIO i know they own a share of him but I believe he stands at Swettenham Stud. There is no mention of him shuttling here or coming here at all. It's a little misleading I think.
-
@Super Snoop what do you mean by that?? I was just merely venting and wondering if anyone else is seeing the form slump. I admitted that I may have put down a few hard earned but I was genuinely baffled when I looked at his stats for feb/march(to da…
-
I like to think I am fairly unbiased when it comes to jockeys but I cannot help but have a little vent regarding a Mr W.Pike. There is out of form and then there is out of form. I know he can be the difference between winning and losing but from wha…
-
@RIO developing a plan... The anticipation is killing me. I am sure their ideas have all been good and with the best intentions but the execution has been a little lack lustre thus far

Race 3 J.Noske wins for S. Edwards aboard Pure Kemistry

@paraletic thats because we all know who to ask. I think the bigger guys were left out because well let's be honest, that gimic stuff is not why we race nor is it of a whole lot of interest. For new people to the industry and those who have ever onl…
-
@Dale that is great and it's great when people can go home and take none back. I find it hard to see how some stay in the game. Having had a look at it all up with a service fee of about $6G it works out to be close to 25G to get to the sale ring. I…
-
Falcon are you referring to the Lonhro's? He was champion sure for a while so he must've done something right along the way. I've started to notice more and more that trainers here in Perth particularly will stick to one certain stallion and contin…
-
@Legless @Damien Wyer i have heard a fair few say that Lonhros are typically small as babies and start to fill out a little later? This years bunch are substantially bigger than last. I remember last year when 'Puteri Jewel' went through was sold an…
-
@britbrat I think that is a bit harsh, he actually has done a lot for the club.
-
Can't believe this... Well actually I can. Eddie has done a lot for the industry here and always had its best interest at heart. Having dealt with him a fair bit of late as he prepared yearlings for us, he was fantatic and did absolutely everything …
-
Possibly one of the most annoying things ever. Those wins are worth more than the blood, sweat and tears... not to mention $$$ that are put in and when suddenly you can't get your pics it's actually kind of sad as all pics he took have been removed …
-
I spoke to Coxy and few of the other people at the Magic Millions event on Saturday and it's about value adding and from what I can tell trying to bring in new people who are there for some fun and are not really the bigger owners, so the people who…
-
Having spoken with the Racing Analysts at Sportingbet this morning they have said they couldn't do a market until barrier draw tomorrow. I know some will think that is soft but how could you really draw a form line in this crop? 14 starters 8 indivi…
-
Rio, I would assume they consulted some of the owners who are on the PR Committee ?? Possibly the wrong end of the spectrum as they are also breeders and big owners but again I am only guessing. I would've thought an open forum where people could pu…
-
Are they going to copy the Racing Victoria model? That works and when you have a horse racing they actually are very good with free entry and a room that has food and 'several' free drinks at the city tracks. Be interesting. Also appears they haven'…
