Visiting Trainers
Does anyone follow the "Visiting Trainers" system mentioned many moons ago in the longshot system by privateer (???) I think. Once again K Sweeney came over here and got 20's about a horse that had won the Adelaide Guineas at it's previous start (a Listed Race).
I assume the "Visiting Trainers" system concentrated on those trainers travelling a long way out of their ground to compete in a higher grade of race than one would normally expect them to. Sydney Metro trainers coming to Melbourne wouldn't be included, but Adelaide, W.A. and Qld form could be included because their racing would be seen as inferior to Melb and Sydney.
Anyone do anything with this type of system?
