So sad condolences to the family Sylvia is a lovely lady

I am all for safety and mean no disrespect to anyone horses so slip sometimes and it's not always the track which most are very quick to blame. was the horse vetted post race did it have it shoes checked? For mine or looked uncomfortable and was changing legs frequently which would make anything slip at speed. It's previous race was similar and for mine the horse did not look right is it always the fault of the track?

congratulations team Pittman on an awesome win all the best michael

Since you are able to sit on your keyboard and assainate a mans character and credibility why don't you have the courage to at least use your name. If this is the only thing you can see wrong in new Zealand racing then it is really in trouble I suggest to you a trip to the start stand behind the gates andcsee what goes on or are you so qualified you have no need. There are some qualities a pretender to the job needs like maturity, honesty, integrity.
