Race 2 fav drifts from odds on to 15/10 and runs nowhere
Race 3 fave drifts rns 4th which does nothing for most bets
Race 4 small field both hotties here got rolled. most MDK horses open way to short. had never Run in CPT new jock new dist. should never have been odds on
Race 5 the worst price horse wins the race.
Race 6 Fav beaten by the money horse no complaints
Race 7 good result even though tote fave was no use. withdraw the starting stall licence for the number 8.

According to the trainer that told me

Farriers on Duty at all tracks part of their jobs are to check all shoes

According to the trainer that told me

Sometimes there's a disconnect between what should happen and what actually does happen

Message from a farrier

Tell him to tell his trainer to put grippers or steel plates on when carded to run in aluminuim shoes and see what happens

a) AFDEEK (AUS) (B Fayd’Herbe) cast the left fore shoe on the way to the start, which the farrier was unable to replace. In consultation with the Veterinary Surgeon and Assistant Trainer M de Kock, the right fore shoe was removed, the gelding was examined by the Veterinary Surgeon, declared fit to race and it raced unshod in front, causing a delay.

....all this conspiracy theory talk....from the pocket....procedure was followed....and horse got beat
.....that's racing....I hardly ever banker....but had this as a P6 banker....I live with it....another day
...horse has talent....should have won....circumstances beyond control..... it did not..... :huh:
