  1. It's all about a $4.5 mill slot race in 2025. Sorry, I'm underwhelmed.
  2. Very important skill to have especially around the coast circuit.
  3. Can I just say big ups to her. Just goes about her job day after day week in week out no fuss no bother no banner headlines. Gets the job done and 3 wins today an excellent reward for a very good rider.
  4. This is a Group 1 race and supposedly our shop window to the world. Simply not good enough and unprofessional. it just reinforces what many around the world think of racing in this country.
  5. Seriously, I cannot believe they are racing there today. Do you think the last one home in the first will crack 3 minutes?
  6. Probably weather related. It's been hosing down in CHC and cannot imagine it's any better out at Rangiora.
  7. Really. Why bother posting.
  8. Ha too funny. Race 9 Santa Anita today. The joy or otherwise of small pools and short priced starters vs the rest. It only paid 8's fixed odds.

    These are my thoughts exactly when I referred earlier in this thread to AKL today being a shadow of days gone by..

    Could be an ideal time to close the place down. Harness racing at this venue is a shadow of days gone by and I don’t see it improving any time soon.

    Gooooooone . Should they have started?
  14. Hi Leggy. Just need your considered opinion. There are a number of people on Facebook in particular (it was a Love Racing post) saying that the track was not the issue at Reefton but rather the horse that won the race slipped because it was running with a hind shoe missing. The horse was fractious and they couldn't get it back on. I've been shot down because I said it was track safety as per the Stewards Report. Thoughts?
  15. Just come out and say it. You are referring to Ben Hope. What he is doing is allowed within the rules. Nothing special here particularly this time of the year with so many meetings within a short timeframe.
  16. Go to ODT or NZ Herald on-line. That is all that is publicly known for now.
  17. Go online to ODT or NZ Herald. What is on there is all that is public for now.
  18. I fear you may be correct. News reports say two people with moderate injuries. There are 7 horses on the truck. At this stage no reports as to the extent of injuries to them.
  19. I know the industry has to carry on and is, but how tough is that on all concerned to have to go back to Ashburton so soon after the tragedy. Thinking of you all today.
  20. An absolute tragedy. RIP Megan. Condolences to her family and friends.
  21. The topic is, what questions should be asked? I have one. Have the Chairman and the CEO offered their resignations? If so why have they not been accepted?
  22. Heard the same thing myself. A big fat go and get stuffed from me. This club treat the public with contempt and it will now bite them in the bum. Cry your crocodile tears somewhere else Tim Mills. I thought you might have at least offered your resignation by now.
  23. Which would suggest the whole damn thing needs to be ripped up and start again. But as you say where are the $$ going to come from for that. It doesn't seem to matter if it's mid summer or mid winter at Riccarton the clods be they wet or dry fly up. I think the rebuild was around 1997/98. I had not long come to live in Christchurch and went to a CJC meeting out at Rangiora. Rangiora itself is another whole sordid story.
