What A Shambles

Recommended Posts

Will the affected owners of scratched runners get compensation/refund in regards to nomination/acceptance fees, transport, staff costs etc? Surely someone has to cough up? Not to mention the "opportunity lost".... Some horses would have been set for this race months ago:rcf-sad-4:

Yes, I did the same. Thought it would be quite interesting to see the stewards report, but unfortunately HB is included instead of Auck. Auckland's would be much more interesting.

Simply beggars belief and they want us to take NZ racing seriously - they don't get much right 

Fcken unblievable

I’d say the standard $250 abandonment fee had 4/5 the last couple years

I was in a TAB in Melbourne couple years back  ,a  few Aussie lads were watching . It was Awapuni next up  I think . Meeting was canned maybe 10 mins out from race . The words one said was " fxxking New Zealand Racing " and laughed . The rest just pissed themselves laughing . No doubt if they were in there today they would have had a right old jolly at today .

Shame as last week was superb racing there .
