Interestingly it's a Soft 5 this morning. I thought they said they were only declaring Good 4 tracks. -
16. The Adjudicative Committee is aware that the Respondent is awaiting sentence on an assault charge in the District Court. The Adjudicative Committee records that it has had no regard to that matter in its consideration of sentence on this charge of misconduct brought by the Racing Integrity Board. 17. This Decision has been amended from that originally released. It is acknowledged that certain findings were made without the benefit of hearing from Mr Iremonger regarding the reason for the assault. Following the issue of the original Decision, the Adjudicative Committee has become aware that certain matters raised by the Respondent are not accepted by Mr Iremonger. Given this conflict, the Adjudicative Committee makes no factual findings as to the cause of the assault. 18. The Adjudicative Committee has decided that, notwithstanding, there will be no change in the penalty originally imposed – that is to say, a fine of $900. CONCLUSION – PENALTY Public Trainer and Open Driver, Matt Purvis, is fined the sum of $900. COSTS There is no order as to costs. Anyone know how court case turned out? -
International riding great Brent Thomson back riding trackwork for the Ciaron Maher camp at the age of 66 Former champion jockey Brent Thomson has been riding work at Ciaron Maher's Fingal property after a 24-year sabbatical.Image: New Zealand Bloodstock-Twitter Giving up the drink and German machinery have helped a riding legend back into the saddle at the age of 66. Former star international jockey Brent Thomson has been riding work for top trainer Ciaron Maher for the last few weeks after spending 24 years without riding a horse. Thomson said he once had no ambition to again ride a horse after retiring following a brilliant career in New Zealand, Australia and across the globe. But he said giving up alcohol had changed his worldview while a fitness regime improved his physical condition, convincing Thomson he could ride work. "I haven't had a drink for 17 months and don't intend to again," Thomson said. "In that 17 months, your thought process changes quite drastically and it opens certain avenues to other areas of life. The basics of riding again is sobriety. "I do a thing called Kieser Training. It's a German fitness program and it's all based on machines. "I've done that for some time and I started that because of older injuries. It's all about strength and all about the core without banging on about it too much." Thomson regained the riding bug after riding one of Maher's horses at a Melbourne beach in the spring. The four-time Cox Plate-winning rider said he increased his efforts, including securing a Racing Victoria trackwork rider's licence, once his busiest period of the year passed. Thomson said he now rides multiple horses when he is at Fingal but will ride work at the hectic Cranbourne Training Centre in the coming weeks. Brent Thomson after winning the 1979 Cox Plate on Dulcify. "The most I've done at Fingal in a morning is four," Thomson said. "I've done three but they have three or four work riders there. At the moment, I'm just riding nice, quiet horses and it's been most enjoyable. I did all the right protocols with Racing Victoria in terms of riding out. "That means I can ride out at Cranbourne and in maybe a week or two weeks, I might be riding slow work on the track. "I'll get up to a stage where I'm riding the odd one in a gallop as well. What is quite nice, because Cranbourne is such a big hub with all the jocks there, it creates a bit of banter." Thomson has been happy to engage in social media jokes about him returning to race riding in recent weeks. However, he ruled out any comeback to race riding, preferring to hop on horses in early mornings for pleasure. "Some people thought I was making a comeback - but I'm not," Thomson said. "It's one thing riding for pleasure but another to do all that (race riding) again. "The ultimate goal is just to get to a nice fitness level." Thomson's other goal might be to take a few more bucks off his opponents on the golf course with the extra fitness. "I believe it (riding) has helped the golf game as well. My form is pretty good at the moment," Thomson joked. Punters.Com

Yes, there's a lot of team driving from that stable. I don't bet if they have multiple runners because you can't beat them. Telfers the same. Joke mate!! -

MATAMATA R4, BRIDAL TRAIN opened at $4.00 and then moved steadily to $3.20 on the 18th. Stepping up to 1600 for the first time, there's support suggesting she will handle it well. R4, LATRELLE was the first to move in the market when it opened. She placed 2nd up last time and is dropping a bit in class from a strong Auckland race. MATAMATA GOLD CION SELECTIONS n R2, IRISH MISS was a $280,000 purchase and it's her first time racing. She hasn't shown much in her four trials so far, but her breeding suggests she could be promising if she lives up to her dam's side of the family. Keep an eye on her development. In R6, HULA BEAT has been performing consistently despite poor draws in her last four starts. With a better draw this time, she has a good chance to win here. The Marsh stable is in strong form, so she's definitely one to watch. AUCKLAND TROTS R3 MEANT TO BE, open 17th at $2.80, continues to take support through Thursday dropping into $2.50. R3 SHARP IMAGE, the only other in this race to take early support, opened $18.00, now into $13.00 R7 PARAMOUNT KIWI, looks well place here, opened $4.50 and continues to get support now $2.20 ASHBURTON TROTS R3 ARI ON SAFARI, $4.80 opening Thursday, Friday morning $3.30. R8 JUDGEMENT DAY, opened $13.00 and before the bookmarker could get back from t=making a coffee, started to take support, now into %5.50 Good Luck. -

Now now stop twisting things you know I was talking about pre race day track gallops and the Ellerslie trials , the fact is you intimated jockeys weren't capable of thinking for themselves and weren't able to judge the state of a track hence the term crash test dummies . -

FInally, time to review Grand National day at Aintree and a dry night and a warm and dry afternoon left the ground on the Mildmay course Good to Soft. Three championship races alongside the feature handicap starting with the Mersey Hurdle over 4000m for the intermediate novices. The morning scratching of CALDWELL POTTER left BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD a warm favourite against the second and third from the Gallagher, JIMMY DU SEUIL and ILE ATLANTIQUE who had no answers to BALLYBURN at Prestbury Park. An impressive performance by the mare BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD who looks destined for much greater things on this evidence. Trainer Gordon Elliott has always held her in high regard and her defeat by GOLDEN ROSE at Cheltenham was a real blow. Over this trip and on this better ground, she looked much more at ease and fences look on the cards next year - it's been a while since we've had a really good staying mare among the chasers but this one could put that right. ILE ATLANTIQUE ran far too keen through the first circuit and was beaten two out and it was the outsider STAFFORDSHIRE KNOT who made it a 1-2 for Elliott and Gigginstown Stud with even bigger outside BUGUISE SEAGULL outrunning his 50/1 odds in third. The staying hurdlers had their turn in the Liverpool Hurdle over 4850m and this looked an open race. FLOORING PORTER, second in the stayers at Cheltenham, went off favourite while there was support for the Irish challengers HIDDENVALLEY LAKE and BUDDY ONE in a race perhaps a notch below the usual quality. I've been a fan of STRONG LEADER for a while - he ran a fine race in the Cleeve at Cheltenham and it's quite clear connections were waiting for this race and also for better ground and the ground dried enough for him to show his best. He was always travelling well, indeed a little too well down the far side on the second circuit and Sean Bowen had to take a pull but he was able to pick up HIDDENVALLEY LAKE and BUDDY ONE approaching the last and won with authority. Although a 10-y-o, MONKFISH doesn't have many miles on the clock and continued his revival here - back in 2021 he was one of the top novice chasers and there's another big race in him on this evidence. FLOORING PORTER did his usual front running effort but I thought he went quick enough and he was well beaten two out and put in a disappointing effort. CRAMBO jumped poorly and I just wonder if he prefers to go right handed. After the theatricals of the big race, we still had a final championship race - the Maghull Novices Chase over 3200m and to be honest I thought FOUND A FIFTY was a certainty and had placed a big bet (for me) at 5/2 ante post and it's always good to see the on-course punters agreeing as he went off 11/8 favourite - doesn't make him a winner though. As you can imagine, I died a thousand deaths up the run in but credit to Jack Kennedy who had ridden the second in the National an hour earlier. I thought FOUND A FIFTY was a certainty and up to the second last I was confident but MASTER CHEWY who had fallen two out in the Arkle when arguably heading for third place put in a much better effort and outjumped FOUND A FIFTY at the last. On another day, he'd have prevailed but Kennedy and the winner were the epitome of courage and tenacity and rallied to snatch the spoils. LIBBERTY HUNTER ran on into third but was beaten 11 lengths. The winner might go ever further next year but MASTER CHEWY looks a real 3200m type. Never mind, it was a good run and cleared a decent profit on the meeting where I think I offered six of the eleven championship race winners so well done to me. The Trainers' Championship looks like it will go right to the wire - thanks to winning the National and other big races, Willie Mullins has poached a £40k lead on Dan Skelton and Paul Nicholls despite only having won 19 races in the UK. - the table is ranking, trainer name, winners, placed horses, number of runners and total win and place prize money. 1 W. P. Mullins 19 64 124 £2,874,693 2 Dan Skelton 113 360 733 £2,834,894 3 Paul Nicholls 123 239 513 £2,756,253 There's still the Scottish Grand National meeting at Ayr this weekend and the Finale at Sandown on Saturday week. -
