this is the biggest disgrace in racing. Imagine taking a horae from a bad barrier or a backmarker to the races and its got zero chance from before they even race. Owners foot the bill because these incompetents set up leaders tracks constantly. Its a blight on our racing. apart from all the other blights
Happens too often these days.
Scone had large fields and 2/3 of them might as well have not bothered turning up.
Next day Sale was the same rubbish.
The price problem is there is zero penalty or accountability for serving up biased tracks.
It seems it an oh well kind of attitude from the clubs and the ruling bodies.
Trainers seem to be the only ones who'll actually give them a blast every now and then.

I understand the frustration from a racing purest point of view because we all want a fair race and the best horse to win on the day.
But as a punter how do you feel about it? Do you find it makes it easier to back a winner? I certainly find it easier to pick them under those conditions (not that I had much of a bet over the recent weekends).

Context is important.
The year they had an on pace bias at Flemington for the carnival was a disgrace because you expect in big fields on a big track horses will be able to make ground.
If you are crying about them not making up ground in small fields around Caulfield, Moonee Valley, Mornington, Canterbury Launceston etc then the problem is really with you.

Any track that constantly has a bias needs shutting down and redesigned.

I take advantage of if if i can but its not about the punt. Why on earth would you buy a horse, spend huge fees every year to keep it then go to the races only to see you have wasted your money because the track managers cannot do their jobs properly.
Rails bias is also dangerous. not enough room for where the jockeys want to be.
lol rubbish. May as well just have every track be a straight course then. On speed is always going to be advantaged no matter where you run
So you just provided the solution then to get rid of the bullshit bias.
That's how Greyhound racing can improve as well. Make racing safer at the same time as getting rid of the bias.
Look forward to your next plan once you hear about flat vs grandstand track biases
How about do better at preparing even surfaces instead of the goat tracks too many are racing on.
Those Singapore horses a shite. Keep coming up unders in markets. Happy to be into a race if one of those horses is taking up a lot of matrket percentage

Bakeel won it's first 3 starts in Adelaide. The $2.50 in it's first race, a 0-68, was a spoil.
The rating it was given didn't seem to match with it's ability. Subsequently he went around at $1.30 and $1.35 the next two starts he won.
Helped that Nunes now rides here and used to ride it back in Singapore.
Not sure why people all around the world haven’t thought of that
Warwick Farm R3 today
Mansiere heads up to NSW , gets its wet track and the BOOL form has held up - $5 is good price

Adelaide is by far the worst metro racing in Aus. one outlier in a myriad of examples.
with you here. Loves the slop, draws with options, fitter for the first up run and the kid on top has great balance. Took some 6.5 yesterday and will probably butter up again. A great 1X3 play to me
The fact we have only 1 metro track is a blight on the industry
Don't get me started on the closure of Victoria Park, it still gets my blood boiling
Ticks all the boxes
yep, worst thi9ng they ever did. Was it Vic Park or Cheltenham that had a straight track? Was Vic Park, yeah?
Vic Park
The heritage grandstand was falling apart and facilities outdated
Would have been better to nurse it through 2 more years and pumped the $$ from the sale of Cheltenham into it
Prime location , great track , played fair just like Flemington
