Did I read that right that Winx was in an 8 horse race where 6 of the entrants were from the Waller stable?

Does this happen often?

Just sounds like borderline race fixing that further denigrates the reputation of the local racing scene.

True and not the first time. Issue is Chris Waller is so dominant in Sydney that he has 70% of the weight for age horses so they have to run in these races.

In saying that though it’s not Waller’s/Winxs fault that other trainers prefer to dodge her with their horses.

Only occasion you could accuse Waller of playing with the field was when he chose NOT to run The Autumn Sun in the Cox Plate last year when people thought he would give her a scare.

Fancy having a box tri and running double with runners all coming 2nd-4th.
The Weir days were better than these...

Has stars of carrum gotten out yet? Going to be a force in the 3yo races this Autumn. Was absolutely bolting all the way up the straight.
