What's with local syndicate organisers??

I contacted a few (wont name them) in Perth and never heard anything back from them. Left messages etc and nothing.

Ended up buying into a nice Ad Valorem - Giver Her Wings filly... in Victoria! Damian White from Damian White Bloodstock was very helpful and a pleasure to deal with.

    I've only dealt with two and found them both to be great. And I was in Saudi when I sought them out!

    I have also dealt with two locally and both fell over themselves to get in contact with me and make sure I was making an informed decision.

    Oh sure.... Some of you will remember me, Skids, Collingwood, from the old PTT days.

    Belhus STILL haven't got back to me, left a message on his mobile, their office answering machine AND sent an enquiry through the website. Couple of the others have sent " will send you some details" sort of messages but that's it.

    Mick Leo on the Gold Coast was also helpful.

    Response from WA syndicates was poor... just stating a fact raconteur.

    Belhus were excellent with me, sent me many lengthy emails, PDF's and video links. Perhaps it's your attitude, or your face.

    Also time of year - January is end of the selling year.
    Next crop (new stock) only a few weeks away.
    No excuse for not at least making contact though.

    Hi Skids67,

    I hope you are not talking about me - Bruce Saxild OZ Racing. I did receive a call recently and the message came through with a lot of interference. I called the number I thought I had heard and left a message but I didn't receive a call back.

    If it was me, accept my apologies, and good luck with your horse.

    Cheers,
    Bruce

    Hey Bruce,

    No OZ racing wasn't one I called. It's all good, I reckon I was meant to get in on this one.;)

    Should be done at the breakers by the end of the week... Pimenton is her name.

    Thanks for the PM para.

    That is a relief Skids67.

    I was sweating on your reply as I wanted to keep Diva's and The Falcon's reputation of being good judges of character in place - although, it may be misplaced backing me.
