IF IT'S ON, IT'S STILL NOT ON.

Yes this was a regular TV ad some thirty years ago recommending a certain course of action, prior to another course of action. Ask around.

I like the twist we have on it here, and I want to apply it to the Gold Coast Million for Babies.

Will the meeting be held?

The rail will be out 1.5 metres from the 1000 metres to the 400 metres, and then out a half-metre for the remainder of the course.

Let's have a look at this.

Sixteen runners. More than half have NEVER seen a track like this.

They've never seen this track either.

The pros and cons as a trainer or owner?

1. Your horse breaks down.

2. Your horse never recovers from the run.

3. One horse takes fright, and there's an almighty problem.

or...

1. You and yours pick up a quarter of a million, and this is (history tells us) the only chance you'll probably EVER get with this horse to see that kind of money.

That's the dilemma for the connections.

For us, THERE IS NO DILEMMA.

Whether or not they race, no serious punter should bet.

It's common sense.

So, even if it IS on, it's NOT on...
