    Griffin got a reaction from bloke in Te Rapa Race Crowd   
    Surely decent management would have this in place before the biggest raceday of the year, not wait until there is a complaint made.

    Griffin got a reaction from THE TORCH in Darren Weir Case   
    So putting a horse on a treadmill with blinkers on and using a jigger on it is not animal cruelty now, or did it not happen, or have the witnesses been told to shut up? Ban him for life.
    Hayden Haitana got life and all he did was put a bit of paint on a horse.

    What?  A large number of the best in Australia and Asia ARE New Zealand bred.

    Horses won't be complaining about the Hill going, having to run through fetlock deep mud climbing a bloody big hill three times carrying someone who is way too big to be a real jockey.
    Bring on the Strathayr.

    Griffin got a reaction from meomy in Who was that lunatic standing in middle of home straight @ 150m mark at Trentham ?   
    This guy has to be hit hard or we are going to see copy cat cases.
    WRC representatives coming out and saying this guy is going to be banned from our course, it is not enough, he is probably a first time racegoer, and would not care. It would be the equivalent of banning me from going to a Basketball game forever.
    He needs a little bit of the 12 months possible spent inside a prison to scare others off, and not a little bracelet around his leg. They have to push for this.

    There is no way the security could have stopped that guy, he sprinted from a way back and then jumped 3 fences. The only way he could have been stopped would have been with a gun, then you would have ended up with a pile of shit lying on the track. Don't think armed security at the races is an option.

    Griffin got a reaction from dock leaf in Topweight in Wellington Cup   
    Beauden would have been required to carry 2kg more than Good Lord and Castletown on their second Cup wins. From memory Think Big carried 58.5 in his second one. This handicapping system needs correcting, it is destroying good racing. A good horse like Beauden could have been sold overseas, the owners keep it here to race and we can't see horses like him race on big cup days, we should be showcasing the good horses. The amount of horses being required to carry over 59kg in flat races these days is bloody cruel.

    Bring it on. I watched a race from Santa Anita last week and no jockey hit their horse behind the saddle. It is only a matter of time before it comes in. There are a few great hand and heels riders in Aus at the moment.

    Griffin got a reaction from Chris Wood in Cambridge Track   
    Loveracing is the NZTR website. I don't think you would get a better opinion of the Cambridge track than a local Trainer, who from previous posts, does not hold back on letting the industry know if things are not travelling in the right direction.
    Hope you get over your Covid.

    Griffin got a reaction from Baz (NZ) in Lack of cameras!   
    This should come under Integrity.
    Does this open it up to riders doing whatever they want in these areas where there are no cameras?
    Wasn't Blossom Lady a trotter?  This site is for real horse racing.
