First the welfare officer (who did nothing in her tenure), than gavin whiterod, now the second ceo in under a year (and played a role in where we are at now at board level) leaving. Geez way to go. They put the industry in a bad position with the lack of action in regards to the live baiting scandal than jump ship when its coming to a head. Absolutley disgraceful imo. https://www.grnz.co.nz/News.aspx?NewsID=3164

Why is Pelosi begging for a new special counsel? What is Pelosi’s net worth? How was this obtained given salary as career official? Why is Pelosi’s memory going? Could it protect against prosecution? How so? What if John M’s surgery was fake? Why would this occur? What could this prevent potentially? What is the Mayo Clinic? Who sits on the BOD there?

Sadly, a subject that is of interest to only a small minority. I wonder if the SI trainers and owners ever complain about the incompetence inherent in SI Racing. Take today at Wingatui for instance. 20 balloted horses and probably another 15-20 eliminated. Not a single balloted horse got a start. Only one horse that was in a field scratched. All the ballots and eliminated horses in rating 65 and maiden races. In contrast, not a single ballot at Trentham. And four open races at Ellerslie and Trentham this weekend with 6, 11, 6 and 7 starters. This is surely a sign that the structure of racing in the South is all wrong. The pattern of feature race-meetings and industry days isn't appropriate to the South. It only works if there is a choice of one of each, each week. Why run only 8 races at Wingatui when there are clearly enough horses to run 10 races? The only 2yo race in the SI this month was a listed race at Riccarton on the 4th. And yet there are dozens of 2yos going around at the trials. Why would anyone race a 2yo in the South? How do trainers organise syndicates to race horses when new "investors" want a quick return and yet there are few opportunities for 2yos. And very few opportunities for 3yos at this time of year, at a time when 3yos are winning maiden races all over and owners would aspire to try their budding champs against their own age group. It is easy for everyone to focus on the waste involved in a $50m computer system, but what about the wasted opportunities through not investing more effort and common sense into running SI Racing. I sadly can't see a committee of "change" experts suddenly turning all of this around. I think more could be achieved by one person with a vision and a passion for the game..

picnic racing in Australia is highly competitive and the standard has risen in recent years. The cup races are run for about $6500. Even city trainers are sending runners to the picnics these days.
-
2nd 3rd and 4th placing stakes are good, equal to winning a regular race here in NZ. If the track is not heavy a good chance of some spoils. Good luck

What trainer doesn't like his horse's chances? "Awww....if he gets a soft run he can......" They're never going to say he hasn't got a show or it's not his kind of race, or pretty soon he's not the trainer any more.

You are deluded and ignorant. I have been telling you for 2 years the biggest event this century is happening and you are so blind. Tell me what u think the declas will show?

Valuable fillies owned by high-flying thoroughbred investor Damion Flower remain catalogued for next week’s Magic Millions Gold Coast National Broodmare Sale despite the prominent racing identity yesterday facing serious drug importation charges in a Sydney court.

The Trainer (based on his comments) seems to like its chances though??
-
How did Flowers say he made his money? Baggage handlers don't get millions so what else did he do? Besides peddle drugs.
-
What a prick. Everyone thinks he’s a hero. Got all these great horses. Own horse complex. Throws his weight around. Big wheel in social circles But it seems all he is is a drug peddler.

Must be your mate 6xes then...you are both deluded idiots whatever....talk a lot like your clown but deliver SFA.....

There are just so many aspects of this site that shows little if any thought or care the NZRB have for the racing punter .... many are major as discussed i.e. lagging, info inconsistency, compatibility issues, App issues, upfront and re-occurring costs associated etc etc... this is before you even get into the upfront build cost and how we have ended up here.... but like a lot of things in life, for me it is also the little things that sometimes count , and when these little things are missing... many and most times the reason these are missing is the supplier simply do not care and or have passion for what they are doing.... which kind of sums up a large reason why we as an industry are in our current position.... One of the little things for me is the info displayed on the race itself when either looking at tab platform of extended form.... 2 very interesting and important aspects for me around a race are its grade.... G1, 2, 3 listed etc and also what purse of the race is...... both these points help me establish seriousness of entrants from top to bottom along with caliber of entrants and just all and all gives me a full picture of the race prior to engaging in form, barrier, ground etc.... but these are deemed unimportant to list.... is this because of the share embarrassment of seeing the grade of race and purse in comparison to our Australian cobbers ... good example ..... 2YO 1400m lsited race for 50K @ Ellerslie, Listed WFO 2800 Flemington 400k... or is it as i said they really just dont care?? Seems Oz tab can easily list... Its the little things, as my punting may be a drip from a tap leaving the TAB as a customer.... a dripping tab still fills a cup and a leaking ship will eventually sink...

Pairs Comp marble draw: 22. Sayer 54. orphanpete I will post a table summarising number allocations to date this evening -
Iraklis, you're letting your freakish levels of exuberance cloud your comprehension. The issue is with the the treatment itself - not anyone using it. There is no hate. There is no wrong doing. There is nothing being alluded to or alleged. The rules permit the treatment ... for now. This treatment is a disaster for the industry. But who can blame the opportunists for jumping on it. What it's doing is driving the wedge between the elite stables and the average stables even wider, which will force more people from the game. Effectively what it's doing is saying to the already struggling owners and trainers that "you need to folk out another grand for this or fall even further off the pace". The question marks over ACS use are obvious to any fair minded person who steps back and takes an unbiased look at the "before and after treatment" performances.
