I am J Kah's biggest fan. But I have to say that all her questionable behaviour/decisions have happened since B Melham came into her life.Could very well be coincidental, but just sayin'.
Your incredibly lucky then IMHO. He's had a lot of trainers and all the ones i know were pleased to see him depart.
Suggest you go to his FB page to get an idea of what occupies his mind
I looked up the TB Chat site he mentions in the report and nothing appeared as its actually called RacingTB Chat for those that are interested
Thats why I say it needs independent inspection and reporting, who is to say that the person doing the reporting did not just simply kick the top layer away to reveal the base...to strengthen his argument...we need to keep an open mind as sometimes things are not as they are portrayed.
Maher stable have a few chances today at Newcastle.
R4 Dollars - big run when unfancied first up, scratched yesterday. On at $10/3 but has been backed.
R7 Berkshire Shadow - nice run fresh up $7/2. Stablemate Chorlton Lane always a chance $6/2.
Thanks for the clarification but I fail to see how power harrowing will magically raise the areas that are 0-100mms up to 140mms. I doubt it was 140mms anywhere a couple of weeks ago. Where does the extra material come from?
So, just to be clear, the track is allowed to get rock hard, without barely any" top" as the informant found it last Sunday, before it is deemed necessary to restore a "top" of 140-150mm. Surely for both training and racing safety it should NEVER be allowed to reach that level of compaction. JMO as a long-term lay agronomist/farmer.
The Ellerslie one is apart from the patented ReFlex mesh which is a plastic element that provides structure to the growing medium.
Each of the Track solutions that Strathayr install with regard to the growing medium vary I.e. are customised for local conditions and or customer specific requests.
The Ellerslie top growing medium is pure sand. It is different to Moonee Valley for example.
The Strathayr system has a number of parts but the growing medium is varied.
Seems silly to me because:
1) Who sees the drivers chatting when there is minimal lead up coverage?
2) Surely good camaraderie between drivers is positive both in looks and for our industry?
3) It's out in the open in front of everybody.
