Sccoby-Doo .....all I'm saying is that they were 'common practice' years ago in the 70''s .....in fact jockeys used to carry those 'hand held' ones all the time and hit their mount on the neck with them turning for home and then throw them over the running rail on pulling up in the back straight. I remember on a country track in Perth (maybe Northam or York) the caretaker was mowing the grass down the back straight and he thought he had run over some land mines hahaha .....all the discarded jiggers got caught up in the mower blades and made a hell of a noise haha😂😂. Another time over there a jockey friend of mine told me to GET ON a horse he was riding as he was carrying a jigger and when he walked into his stall the starter said to him 'Excuse me Mr XXX ......could you please unload your horse' and he thought... 'Oh No ....Iv'e been sprung' ......but he was in the wrong stall hahaha! .....so he re-loaded .....gave it a buzz turning in and won by 3 lengths.....corrupt? YES .....breaking the rules? YES ....but in Darren Weir's case the 'Buzz up' was purely to wake the odd 'non trier' up....and as you saw it made next to no difference at all.....so all that was needed was a fine. FF .......just stating the facts.   -

When listening to Trackside in the car particularly if you have surround sound system, after a race they have this weird like thunder noise. I wondered what the f was wrong with my car before I realised what was happening, it still gives me a bit of a fright. Not sure why they do it lols

They would also have had to contract for that turf to have been grown here using the recommended grass types for Auckland's climate etc. and then harvest and lay it. However, that would have put them months further ahead in readying the track, especially with the delays that occurred because the grass would have been growing away in the mean time. I don't think the direct seeding itself was the problem but something obviously went wrong with the process to cause the matting to develop in the root zone. Only thing I can think of is too much too shallow irrigation. They also clearly raced on it way too soon under the circumstances. I just hope they don't try and do that again if they can fix it.

So why seed it instead of the tried and true way they knew worked. -

So you think it's OK to use a jigger on a defenceless animal, and that if they are not trying they deserve it??? For me what he did is totally wrong if you are that desperate to win, then there is something wrong with you...I for one would never give him a horse but thats just my opinion, I think more of the horse than just being a means to an end. -

What else could he have done, don't think I've seen a more unconvincing cabinet minister as Melissa Lee ever and that's saying something, Nathan Guy as racing minister springs to mind too.
