    No it won't
    Surgery the only thing that will fix it but that comes with a side order of complications,a big bill and no guarantee it will work. Unless it's a champion pull the pin

    Kingshill got a reaction from Black Kirrama in Whyte Handicap   
    Once one of the great winter handicaps - this years edition headed by a 10yo mare on a 83 Rating - the rest Rating 74 and below. 
    To save former winning connections from turning in their graves, isn't it about time this race name was retired? 
    I'm sure the $40k could be better spent in the spring on a MAAT/special conditions race? 
    Ideas anyone?

    Kingshill reacted to nomates in Weigh In   
    Stunned that they have let him back on air , he is so good he shows up how poor the other presenters are , intelligent concise and articulate commentary on NZ racing , and not scared to throw pointed barbs when he sees things not being done correctly , more power to him . Needs to be offered a very large contract to come back on board on a regular basis and drag the rest up to a higher level .

    With the abandonments, reduced money for next season is anyone really surprised local trainers are spending less, owners are not bottemless pits

    Kingshill got a reaction from Dopey in Book 2   
    Agree..... Apart from some standout lots making 6 figures, many being passed or sold at below production cost. 
    Glad I held my Ace High filly back from the sales...... Rather spend the money on a couple of training preps to find out if she's any good.

    Sweynesse - I'm surprised by the high prices he has achieved so far in this sale...... As his results had slowed up since the initial crop hit the tracks, until recently when Lucky Sweynesse has chipped in with his Hong Kong results.
    Hopefully Sweynesse can start kicking goals again as a stallion for his owners and the NZ industry.

    Glen Boss sums it up in the link below....... Open the gates..... Most racedays should be free entry..... Punters will spend the money anyway.

    Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia did just that..... Remember AWT being installed around 2009 and a few years later it was put back to turf....... Relatives that used to live there said it was controversial at the time...... Someone here may know more of the story 🏇

    Kingshill reacted to Double P in Photo Finish Finality   
    The photo finish shows at the end of the video above and it's certainly very close but I'd still argue that if their equipment is accurate enough to drop back half a frame either Canheroc would reach the line first (given the outside horse was closing) or they'd both break the line together and it'd be a deadheat.
    The Club should show the frame when Ess vee Are reaches the line.

    Kingshill got a reaction from Aaron Bidlake in Should we be worried about Awapuni again   
    The key words being USED TO
    In my forties and the only one interested in the GG's amongst my original group of friends from my teenage/Twenties years. 
    Combination of no family involvement in the racing game/ flat out paying a mortgage/too many options now in regards to sports and hobbies and the fact that they can rock up and buy a lotto ticket and dream of a big win...... 
    We have lost probably two generations of punters/owners /breeders...... Hard to reverse the numbers 🤔
