I can't recall me saying anywhere that the dog can win at a TAB meeting. I have said that she is not good enough yet to race at a TAB meeting.
If you go back to page 15 I do state that in a post.
So again. I race the dog at a non-tab meeting because she is not good enough yet for a TAB meeting.
At the moment she is racing at a distance of 279mtrs. There is no TAB meeting where they run that distance. Do I put her in a distance to qualify for a TAB nomination and probably ruin her for life or do I slowly build her up to that distance and hopefully get the times required to possibly win a TAB meeting. She's got a long way to go to get there and she may never get there. If she doesn't I can't say I didn't try. But I'm not going to ruin her for the sake of more dollars. I'll be happy if she wins tomorrow, but there is no garrentee on that. There are 7 other dog trainers hoping for that glory too.
A maiden race is the hardest race of them all.
I'll say it once more. She is just an ordinary dog.
