On the one hand I'd like to see all the horses running but on the other I think trainers should be targetting races and not chucking everything in every race. If the big stables are focussed on Festivals then perhaps the smaller stables can target this type of race rather than the same horse winning everything.
To that extent perhaps it would be worth opening up the conditions for qualification as simpleminds suggests.

here is the list of horses that have qualified
Blindworkx - Thunderspark Dominion - Thunderspark Minister - Leon van Rensburg Marksman - Kevcon Over The Top - Kevcon Airbus - Rich Spectacular - Rich Flight - Rich Stand Clear - Hemz Japanese - Hemz Out Of Africa - Padraig Hogan Understanding - David Robertson
Plus 3 more to come this week
Is this going to be a 5 runner race?
From my reckoning only 5 of the horses nominated can qualify to run

 Week 8 R23 Hurricane Run Long Hurdle (Final) Race
Have all these horses in this race qualified for the final.
Grey Racer Ii
Colour Me
Play Misty
Not one to gripe, but my horse is carrying 12st and if I can knock 3 lightweights out of the picture in a 8 horse race, more chance for me, hahaha.
No worries either way....
Hope mine walked it

This race should be re-run, there is no point having qualifier races if anyone is allowed to run. As l say in my opinion race needs editing and re-run

This is the sort of problem that arises when the person running the series pulls out.
I will look at this race when I get home tonight.

No worries Rich, nice run with Porcelaine, just nipped mine  more sour grapes hahahaha....
No being serious, No need to review or re-run as you said with Ryan departing hard to keep an eye on, and you guys do enough as it is...maybe just a nice drop in the ratings for Covi Santo

Sorry guys my mistake in nominations.
Can we not just disqualify the non qualifiers and promote the others.

Sorry, meant to say that the result is going to show the runners who hadn't qualified as disqualified.
However the disqualified runners are now eligible to run in the final.
