Where's Mango??

[JJ Flash 2,549]

Drove a few months ago on the grass circuit but now apparently no longer licensed as either Driver or Trainer. Anyone know why or has he seen the light that NI Harness is  a joke and not worth being involved in?

For a guy that purports to have his "ear to the ground" in all things harness racing, this is a rather pathetic attempt at baiting someone else to come out and say what you clearly don't have the balls to say!

If he's retired, good on him. Mangos has been in the game a lifetime so time for a change. Make way for younger folk!

 You clearly know more about this than the rest of us. I simply asked a question as to why he's chucked the game in.

Care to share what you know about the topic or are you just being a tosser

A certain someone has been found guilty of multiple charges in the Court of law and has probably chucked his licsence in before RUI catch up with him.....

[Ned Kelly 156]

Unfortunately he has been up before the courts, very unpleasant situation 

[Iraklis 2,297]

Surely not to do with the improper drivin re Ms Chilcott? I thought that had been dealt with.....or, summit new?

I got told on Saturday night at Menangle that B Mangos has thrown in his license due to repeated poor treatment from the stewards regarding the whip rule in NZ

[Ned Kelly 156]

A very serious criminal offence, nothing to do with his driving but involving a former employee

All shall be revealed in good time. There's no rush, it's been many years in the making to get to this point.

Sorry not taking your bait. If you want to tell the story, go ahead and do so.

He did go down in my estimation after the Chilcott incident.  That was a very bad look. 

[YouNeverGiveMeYourMoney 28]

All the Australian industry knows so it is hard to believe that you guys do not.  Ned has probably said enough

Yep, heard about this the day after the fact. I was shocked but thought it must have been delt with. Obviously not..

[Ned Kelly 156]

Unfortunately it only gets worse with two other trainers one fairly high profile who gets a lot of support from hrnz  facing even more disgusting criminal charges. As an earlier poster stated its disgraceful that Australian participants know more about what’s going on in the industry here than us. Although these scumbags are responsible for their own actions hrnz have done nothing to address this group of degenerates

Thanks for answering my initial question. It obviously explains his absence from the track

[Iraklis 2,297]

Geez I dunno, how the hell can Oz participants know more bout what's goin in NZ Harness? and if HRNZ are not keepin on top of stuff why has no one called HRNZ out about it? it's bizzare....

Just after the horses crossed the finishing line he deliberately forced Chilcott into the outside fence.  Apparently annoyed that in the run home she didn’t shift ground to let his horse out of a pocket 

[eljay 1,784]

Best left & forgotten until everything settled.     Still to be "finalised"     No good done by circulating inaccurate or incomplete rumours 

[Iraklis 2,297]

Well said Eljay mate, if media ain't all over it there must be a reason why....

Yes Mango was found guilty ....and is allegedly to be sentenced in the next week or two.

He has handed his licence in and his life will take a different path in the future.

It's such a shame when people do something completely out of character and have to pay the price..... especially a good bloke like Mango.

As a horseman, he had few peers and he will be sorely missed out of the training and driving ranks.

FF.

Is there any update here wondering where he has been lately?

[Friend Family 374]

He has shifted back to ChCh Debs......his Mum lives down there and he is working for Scotty Wallace they tell me.

Hope one day he returns to training and driving as he is a big loss to the game.

FF....A good man Mango....and everyone makes mistakes in life.

[Friend Family 374]

WPH .... why don't you actually SAY somthing rather than get Emoji's to deliver your 'under-arm' deliveries.

If you have an opinion please voice it ....if you don't then go to McDonalds and chew on a cheese burger.

FF ....Wishing people would stop hiding in the woods.
