like i say i think they scrapped the law where they gave consideration towards barrier rogues around 18 months ago (in Adelaide and Victoria) I amnot against it as people were taking advantage of it and still do in NSW where so often you see the fav or close enough to it loaded last regardless of the draw because it is a so called "barrier rogue"

Maldivian was just in the wrong place at the wrong time yesterday and that was terrible luck for both horses in the end the only real answer I can see to this is change to that barriers they use in NZ they look far safer than the ones used here maybe I am wrong there to though.
