Can someone explain why Tallyho Twinkletoe is not nominated for Jumper of the year?
He won the Australian Grand National hurdles and steeples as well as a jumps race at Wanganui in the last racing year.
I understood the rule was they had to be either trained by a NZ trainer If they went to aussie or have been stabled and have a race in NZ for an NZ trainer for them to qualify. Which he has done.
And before someone posts he was under Patrick Payne’s name in Aussie.... it was ok when Sea King shared the Jumper of the year award to have the same training set up.
Me thinks someone at NZTR has not done their homework.
