I wonder how many on here have been to Thailand and encountered the same?

Blaming sexual assault on booze is a cop out.... 99.9% of people don't commit sexual assault when intoxicated.

Actually aec, it didn't just 'happen'. He caused it so is paying the price. He's not a kid. I'm sure a lot of us have over-indulged in booze on several occasions yet never stooped to that level and can't blame it on the booze. Sad, yes, but im not impressed. Just mho.

so sad this could happen to someone so talented stand tall matty and i sincerly hope things work out for you because we can not afford to loose such a talent in this industry

What one has to consider to keep a balanced approach - if the bloke had been a girl, what would we think then?

I dont think there is any winners here ...its just another jockey gone from the ranks and hell thats the last thing racing needs right now.

Yes everyone has been the victim of the 12 o'clock princess...and I hope matt can get himself sorted and come back stronger the industry can not afford to keep losing good talented people.
 

We have all made mistakes (particularly drinking 😕)this maybe a big deal today was commonplace, i woke on the couch one night to find my friends sister ( the ugly of the three) on top of me naked at 3 in the morning while her boyfriend was asleep in the next room 😳I never made a song and dance about it ,now they have kids and still together 20 years later and life goes on ...not a good look for sure but we learn from our mistakes and others,  it shouldnt be career defining and the 'Victim' could of handled things ( 🙄 )differently. Harden up

Agree. No winners here...Matt or the victim.

Let's not hang the young man
He has made a mistake, fronted up and will serve his punishment 
Concern for him and his mental health.
Respect to his victim.

Fallen a long way since he was so rude to Trudi in the jockeys' room.
She must be having a quiet smile.

I’m very disappointed to see me go, as you clearly all are….however might I say, as I leave the stage, that this is a fun comp…..I clearly don’t have the required skill set to pick losers ad-infinitum….….but I’ve done my best to be a loser, like Chris Thomson…..and I’m looking forward to the next iteration of this LGL …bring on.the spring 

His Lord, the original millennial, was allegedly still living with his mummy and stepdad at 30, 
brewing booze, 
considered himself gods gift to the world, 
but could only manage 13 followers. 
What a loser 🥴

Geez 100 1 that's really desperate perhaps its time to come out of your bunker and check out the real world . FAKE everything , well I have a relatively small immediate family spread from the south to northland  and only my wife and myself have escaped the virus so far , that's a pretty high strike rate , I also have been a regular at 3 medical centres /hospitals in the last couple of years soaking up those big pharma products (keep paying those taxes) and if you ask any nurse what the numbers are they don't mince words, WE ARE under real pressure and have to almost run every where  ,  it's understandable why some have a special dislike for those who don't have the spine to get vaccinated . 100 1 save your self and get off those conspiracy web sites they are damaging your mental well being , the worlds not such a bad place .

Brain washing  really , if you want to see a classic example of a brain washed  person just look in the mirror , no doubt you spend all day on conspiracy sites and then pop up with perverted views on many issues , hardly surprising . NOW vaccines, I have had 3 ,they are not the complete answer and if covid takes off again I  will have 4 because after 12 BILLION DOSES world wide they are safe . From my extended family all have had covid 2 weren't vaccinated the other 9 were the recovery time for the unvaccinated was triple that of the vaccinated , FACT . NOW China , they are persisting with lock downs Why ?? , Answer they are preparing for the next big one , this was stated by a Chinese government official now get your conspiracy mentality around that .
AND finally get over this we have moved on , the world has moved on the vaccine debate has ended for most .

You seem to be a victim of  propaganda 100 1 your self , lets examine reality you seem to hate big pharma , yes they are noted for their ability to make money but they also invest their money to develop  remedy's for life saving treatments  so to  the vaccine , we all know they are not long term savers but have saved our health system from collapse and the main criticism , the vaccines didn't get properly trailed , that was 2+ plus years ago , since then   As of 26 May 2022, 11.81 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered worldwide and people aren't dying in the streets which means these numbers make covid vaccines  the most trailed vaccine ever . Now big pharma , when you have any life threatening issue it's big pharma that might save your life that's a reality , suck it up get real , no big pharma life expectancy will fall . Big pharms has saved my life TWICE  yes it costs but when you look at government wastage it's small change .

I addressed Hedleys video , it's just stirring and I explained reality , the bottom line is if you blindly believe some social media you will have a perverted view of many issues , reality is the vaccines aren't the ultimate cure but they have guided us for the time being through dangerous times .. Governments were facing tough decisions , do nothing and hundreds of millions may die or vaccinate with what we had and perhaps avoid catastrophe , politicians were in a difficult spot so the only credible arse saving  option was to vaccinate , I'm still here after 3 shots and I don't know anyone who has departed because of vaccinations .

Apparently we have a warehouse full of antiviral drugs (unfortunately too much of the shite one and only a little of the best) and they hardly mentioned it and worse, at the most severe time with deaths climbing for the last few weeks, it appears unless you know someone or your doc is smart enough, you are NOT going to get it. 
Wait what, we have all those deaths AND we have a lifesaving (and we talking abt a killing machine) drug (Paxlovid 80% kill rate,) and only some people are allowed them  !!!!!!!
I suggest to you, that starting tomorrow, if all of the Paxlovid antivirals were dished out to ANY person suffering from the virus, this bullshite would be OVER. 
To do what this government has done, is abhorrent and the fact they know this drug can and could have saved multiple lives, BUT they refuse to distribute this drug to all, is evil.  🤬
So if any member of your family falls ill to this flu, then INSIST on a dose of Paxlovid for them, not the other crap, and I mean insist !
This continuous, meaningless BULLSHITE abt vaccines, when they have had a anti viral ready to go, is criminal.  Remember all the b/s when the vaccines didn't work, they just said yeah but you don't get as sick 🤣, obviously don't understand the vaccine principle. And don't forget how if people don't vax, then there will be ENORMOUS strain on the health system.  Well guess what, you dish out those anti virals (not the shit one 20% kill rate, but some clown thought it was a good deal 🤔) and this is done.   I can't even consider losing a family member because of a idiotic, no ... criminal government decision.
 
*:  Paxlovid cannot be taken by people with certain medical afflictions (chiefly bc of mixing certain pills), but a 5 day course will kill the virus. And I would recommend you insist your doctor gets  on board.   Also the drug works best as early as possible after exposure.
 
Fuck the NZ government but also every other motherfucker in parliament, because they ALL knew.     

The master is about to speak
Flemington R1 # 2 Giga Kick, and I’m playing a JOKER please 
Flemington R2 # 10 Oceana Blue 
Thanks for the comp, and good luck to all the losers 
 

It should. These guys are Jockey Managers who get them rides on horses they presumably think can win.
When they do, and have not been mentioned, some might question the ethics involved.

52 entries.  The following are the selections sorted by meeting/race.
Had a few things on this morning so might have mis-recorded some picks or missed some picks or joker selections.  Will do a bit of a check a bit later but let me know if you see any problems with what I've recorded - thanks.
I won't be posting race-by-race updates - this one is a marathon not a sprint, but will post the odd update from time-to-time.  Easy enough to follow from the picks below if you're keen.   First update - Deploy took 3 lives in the first at Ruakaka and The Cossack took 2 lives in the 2nd at Hastings.
