And the NZRB is probably not a good acronym for the NZTR Racing Bureau. Or, do we ring entries through to John Allen? rdytdy 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Hello I would like to make an entry for the trials please" "sure - if you open a TAB account and make a bet on the cricket and lose we will refund your bet up to $50" honestly who writes this stuff at HQ?

Leggy 4,076 Report post Posted February 3, 2017 On a positive note, it's nice to see RACE make the effort in the release to acknowledge the support of the FRC in facilitating the return of Awapuni to CD racing. They didn't have to do that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneVoice 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2017 Hopefully they don't have horses working clockwise and anti clockwise at the same time like the jump outs.Oh wait trials start later than jump outs so that shouldn't happen.

Leggy 4,076 Report post Posted February 3, 2017 I heard there were some reservations after the jumpouts but that probably wouldn't have helped if so. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would think that they would let the older and experienced horses trial first rather than green 2yos IMHO rosie one 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
