I thought COTT ran great yesterday

I completely agree with you. COTT doesn't like Greyville and I don't think Tellina is good enough.

Give their spot to Futura

What's the fuss about?

14/06/2014 13:08:42 468452 HORSE RACING TURFFONTEIN Race 7 KILLUA CASTLE Fixed Win 14.29 - Result

On a serious note, a closer look at the horse's form over 1800m (look closely to whom it ran too and the finishing distances) and it had to be a runner, nothing sinister.

Couple of points:

Firstly, yes everybody is entitled to their opinion - however I question if an accusation disguised as a comment has its place on this forum; why would Tim mislead the public - imo he gave his opinion as he saw it (and I agree with Tommy, he was never bullish on Tellina); horses being what they are did their own thing on the day - has happened many times before and will again in the future.

Secondly, I don't believe that the result of the Jubilee will have any meaningful effect on the July field; both Tellina and Cherry are sitting comfortably on the log and I don't believe either will be jeopardized by their runs yesterday; the only one that could benefit from the result is Halve the Deficit - beating Cherry comfortably on handicap terms (added to his creditable run in the 1900 when a shorthead behind another definite July runner Punta Arenas) he certainly now deserves his spot in the July - must surely get preference instead of a 'potentially very good' horse like Futura - who has beaten (albeit impressively) some run-of-the-mill handicappers in the 1900 'consolation' and then got beat in a handicap by Serissa :

Was not very hard to find Lillua Castke yesterday , if you liked Tellina Killua Castke had the beating on him on a couple of earlier runs

Well said Frodo

Tough game. Why post or comment when u on a hiding to nothing?
Craig, dont try training, you dont understand it and wont make it.
Royal P, as Striker has said for many years, no matter how well he rides, the best that he or any other jock can ever be, is the second best jock in the World, because the best jock in the World is sitting in the grandstand! Now, I see, the same applies to Woodie, as a Trainer. And here I am, dreaming of one day just achieving 10% of what Woodie has achieved...
Not only must Woodie now plan on from yesterday, he must also liaise with his Owners and team, to get the job done. But, no, he must stop all of this, to answer your stupid and clearly vindictive complaint in disguise as an "open letter".
Rather he engages with Mullets.....

@louisg I agree training must be extremely difficult and I don't agree with everyones criticism when your runners have an off day wasn't my point I was trying to make

This was my jackpot yesterday
8
2,4,5,8,9
4,5,8,9
1,2,4,9,10,11,12
Played R70 =50%
I actually was a DOOS as Featherfoot jumped out of the page, and not once
I went for the 5/10 Banker
I never considered TELLINA , COTT or HTD

Well i lost, so who do I blame? WOODRUFF or his SON?:S

NEIGHHH!!!!:X
Only myself:(

Hey, hey J I had nothing to do with your selections !
RP this is maybe one of the worst examples to choose/ or have a go at, but I understand your frustrations.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion Madji and mine was that Tellina was perhaps not going too try and win that race with 62kg's.....

And you are calling ME an arm

That's funny
