Imperatriz has been retired , found some issues when vetted prior to going for a spell .
Are you sure? I read Cylinder was retired (horse that beat her in the Newmarket) but can't see Imperatriz being retired anywhere.

What time is is likely to be going through the ring?
Inglis website says 2.15pm (which is 4.15pm NZ time) but if Inglis is like NZB then it will be closer to 4pm (NZ time).

Outstanding news.
Will he be training in partnership with Kevin or starting his own stable on his own?

Outstanding field isn't it. I'm pleasantly surprised with how much wet track form is next to most of the field.
For what it's worth - #8 Detonator Jack for me. Ran on well fresh up and did so in the slightly inferior ground, horses that are able to run through the line first up is a good sign that a horse is in for a good prep as they can handle the speed at the end of the race when it matters most. Loves a wet track, low draw (although that might be a negative at this time of the day). Great record at the mile and with little weight on his back $15 seems a great price for mine and more than happy to explore trifecta's with him. Also like Militarize and think Celestial Legend is the best horse in this field but a huge worry about a wet track for him.

I have noticed from tomorrow that Trackside are going to introduce new graphics. Apparently more presenters on track - I wonder what that means?
Moving to freeview as well.
Thoughts everyone?

Does anyone know what has happened to Johnathan Parkes? He made a brief comeback last year in about April and said he has not felt better with weight etc. Was around for about 8 months and I've noticed since about December he hasn't been riding. Hope everything is alright. He is a class rider with an excellent strike rate and manages to get the best out of the horses with great rides as well.
Please enlighten me if anyone can.

They are now looking at date and program changes , perhaps pushing Trentham back a week ?
And bring Riccarton forward a week as a consequence?

So has there been a day scheduled for the Lowland Stakes and the other 3yo race? Could they add it onto the Tauherenikau meeting on Sunday despite acceptances already been released? Make those 2 races the last 2 on Sunday. Next Wednesday at Otaki seems too late, only 10 days from the Oaks especially when most are coming from the north.

I personally think they should have gone with some smaller trainers that don't get the recognition and credit they massively deserve. Yes all the trainers that they gave them to are good at what they do and there is a reason they are getting regular winners but without all of the smaller stables racing wouldn't be able to survive. Like I still think Chris Wood is a very good trainer - doesn't get the best bred horses but still gets some nice horses that are well turned out and are getting results for him a lot. The likes of Kelso, Danica Guy, Patterson, Didham, Thurlow and many others of examples of trainers that I'd much prefer my horse to go to.

They didn't terminate just didn't renew . But this isn't Evans fault .
He is a decent guy , used to talk to him regularly when he done the Foxton trials , knowledgeable and good humor .
I like his commentary style and yeah he's probably trying too hard but he's walking into big shoes , I think people should cut him some slack and give him some time .
I have been listening to and enjoying Tony's commentaries for decades but everything moves on , and bitching on Evans isn't going to solve anything and not fair on him .
Couldn't agree more, give him a chance, all the best were in his shoes in once.
