Does anyone know why the owners of these two gallopers took Spacecraft to Moody and Plain Lucky to Hayes??

Got them the wrong way round Money. Spacecraft has gone to the Hayes stable. Actually seen Spacecraft and Extra Zero work at Seymour Sunday week ago, and it seemed Spacecraft had Extra Zero measure fairly easily. It will be interesting too see what he does for Hayes.

Cant see why you would take a horse off Price for Hayes??? Are they blaming him for Spacecraft not measuring up in Autumn?? Sorry owners but the horse is not up to that standard. He was perfectly placed by Price to win a few races in a row but he beat nothing (Magical Pearl, Playwright etc). As a 3yo that form around Hanks, Spacecraft, Saint Encosta, etc didnt stand up.
Geez Price just can't get a good horse can he?

I think Hayes will def be back in business now he has the stable set up effectively. I am not saying he will be back on top but back in business that's for certain. Mick Price is not the issue with Spacecraft more the horse. A change is as good as a holiday..

if a horse cant win with mick price it will not win anywhere...... you only have to look at spacecraft to see it will not measure up to the top liners.... its a small lanky framed horse it was a amazing effort by mick price to get to win so many races.... now they might as well chuck the horse in the bin i will be very surprised if hayes got spacecraft to win a race.... most horses might find something when they change stables...... its a bit like a bloke who runs late to work every day and gets the sack he starts his new job and turns up on time every day for the first 2 months..... but after the first 2 months go's back to his old ways of turning up to work late.... some horses can find something when they change stables but they will always go back to there old ways.... and from price to hayes is not a good change....
