Tc02 testing

Quote this interesting article in the sporting post
" The only two TCO2 ‘second-testers’ at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Friday evening both won, underscoring a theory held in some quarters that it is worth following horses who register close to the margins.The Mark Dixon-trained Master Du Rouvray (6’s to 4-1) and Yadav Singh’s Iron Will (6’s to 4-1) were narrow winners of their respective races. The previous second-tester was the Wendy Whitehead-trained Pretty Kara who won at Hollywoodbets Greyville on Boxing Day! " 

Any thoughts from the clanners ? 

well if that doesnt show why testing was introduced nothing will. higher the level better the run

.....I posted plenty on this matter....and quip a tongue in cheek remark from one of these posts.....maybe trainers should use these tests to determine the fitness of their horses.....lol




 

The headline is deceiving unless there are more than two examples. Anecdotal shit once again like the initial level used to scratch the horses. Nothing ever proven scientifically about the level that was used. 

Also how does a 1 point change in the minimum level make a 90% change in the number of horses being scratched.

Absolute bush mechanics science which has never been explained or anyone held accountable for the multiple incidents or bringing trainers names into disrepute. 

I am not saying that there is nothing untoward happening in horse racing but you have to have a better approach than "my uncles aunty said"......

Sorry Craig, my thoughts, there would be horses worth following that are given a second test.

I would use the form, how the horse looks, I.e. good coat and eye on the day, etc and then the second test info

Some horses naturally have high levels and others it is a sign of fitness and well-being.

Wouldn't use the info as an absolute but certainly if you have a scoring system to have a punt it would be a positive tick 

Maybe a truth drug for the trainers would be a more beneficial system 🤔 🤣

Dave that is very funny 😂😂😂

 

No Dave!lie detector aswell

TC02 testing has been pointless since the " non rogues" started having positives

Amazing how that everyone in JHB were cheating and everywhere else there was more whitewashing than Donald Trump's makeup artist

Suppose all the TCO2 testing will be put on hold for King's Plate day as they wouldn't want to spoil the day for ALL our visitors. PS I haven't read or heard that word 'milkshake" for quite some time now. 

So what has come of the case against Tony Peter?
And all the evidence the NHA had?
And Tony counter suing the NHA?
