Used to bet on Riccarton regularly but have never had a bet on the synthetic. It puts me off just looking at it.

He is always a back marker but still can usually jump with the pack unless he is at $3 or $4 fav then for some reason he is last out by 8L - The horse probably reads the tote -
Geez you can't believe how slow they are at NZTR on the pick up , Cambridge and Riccarton trials on the synthetic tracks both canned due to insufficient entries . Wake up guys , stop programming them and just put on grass track trials for people . Up north they have Rotorua next week then Te Rapa the week after , so owners have to carry the cost of waiting another week to trial their horses . If they just accepted the situation and put Rotorua on tomorrow everyone wins , but no , got their heads stuck in the sand . Wakey , Wakey !!!

I don't think a warning was required for your opinion, there has been a working party, or whatever they called it, working on a plan of change for the current handicapping, rating system and retention of racing stock for many months. I thought that this plan was supposed to be made public last month, however the delay in naming a new CEO may have delayed this as it would be logical to have his/her input before finalizing.

Te Aroha Race Tips R4 TROUVILLE: Won well on soft ground at trials, likely to handle conditions, one to beat. SHOOTING STRIDE: Dam won 8 of 19, fitter after two runs, consider at odds. R6 POETIC JUSTICE: Looks strong here, each-way chance. HE SO FINE: Won on soft ground at trials, worth a bet in this even field. R7 RUA ROCKS: Gets weight off, will be in the finish. PACHECO: Maps well, could win with a good run behind the speed. R8 PIER: Nice trial win to prepare for this race. ARIS ARIS: Suited here, loves 1300m, will be running on. Blowout: GOSPODIN: Better than form suggests, could surprise the favorites. R9 DIOMEDES: Better after fresh run, performs well at this class and distance, consider. ABOVE THE CLOUD: Improved after two runs, each-way chance at odds. THREE NINETY: Finished strong for 5th last run, a roughie. R10 LADY GREY: Fitter than some, looks strong in this lineup. TIME TO WONDER: Showed fight when 3rd at recent trials, if repeats that, can be close today.

If you go to the supermarket once a week and partake of the free fruit for kids and the free samples of fancy cheese while doing your shopping, that's fine. If you go three times a day to ransack the free fruit and cheese while not buying anything, eventually they'll ban you from the store. -

That City Of Troy is much much better than I thought. Very good. Voyage had a lovely track gallop on the course proper with no weight on his back. There is a Group 3 10 furlong race at ascot. Waipiro won it last year. I will go Voyage this year. -

The first day of the Epsom Derby Festival took place on a cold and cloudy afternoon with drizzle in the air. It wasn't really the best conditions for Ladies Day but on the track the turf was officially Good to Soft with most of the heavy showers which afflicted London the previous day staying away. Two Group 1 races starting with the Coronation Cup over the iconic 2400m across the Downs. EMILY UPJOHN, last year's winner, proved a weak favourite as trainer John Gosden, who is very straight with the media, said the filly was a lazy worker and this was a "prep for her summer campaign". The money came for both LUXEMBOURG (4s to 9/4) and HAMISH (7s to 4s). As I often say, there's no point getting older if you don't wiser and giving Ryan Moore a freebie on the front end is asking for trouble. Moore rode a superb race on LUXEMBOURG and didn't have to do too much to hold the running on HAMISH in a race where the money spoke volumes. Let's not forget LUXEMBOURG was 2/1 favourite for the 2022 Derby after running third in the 2000 Guineas and Aidan O'Brien indicated post race 2400m would be the trip for this one with a tilt at the King George at Ascot at the end of July the next target. Could we see him in the Arc - I suspect he might end up in the Breeders Cup Turf. HAMISH ran a blinder - the ground probably wasn't soft enough for this type who plies his trade in Group 3 races where he has an excellent record. The true was however LUXEMBOURG had too much class. The French raider FEED THE FLAME was held up at the back off a steady race and was beaten as soon as the pace lifted - he was six lengths behind HAMISH in third. John Gosden said post-race he thought EMILY UPJOHN had blown up 600m down and the race would bring her on a lot. He also thought the ground was slow enough - she goes next to the Hardwicke at Ascot. They ran the 2400m in 2 minutes 42.12 seconds so nearly seven seconds off Standard - the ground was on the slow side and, unusually for Epsom, thetre was a strong headwind up the straight which can also excuse the modest time. Following the success of LUXEMBOURG, the first Group 1 for Aidan O'Brien in England this season, the money came for YLANG YLANG in the Oaks but she was strongly opposed by EZELIYA, representing legendary trainer Dermot Weld, who last won the Oaks with BLUE WIND in 1981. I don't need to remind anyone on this forum of the legend that is Dermot Weld. The trainer of 1993 Melbourne Cup winner, VINTAGE CROP, he may not get the numbers of the quality of Aidan O'Brien and Ballydoyle but the Aga Khan family has been a supporter for decades and there's no doubt he still knows how to handle the good ones. EZELIYA did this well under Chris Hayes and in truth there weren't many anxious moments. Of the twelve, only six ever really got competitive. Fillies like FOREST FAIRY, SECRET SATIRE, RUBIES ARE RED and the royal runner TREASURE were all well beaten. Hayes always looked happy on EZELIYA and she quickened well 400m down to lead and run down DANCE SEQUENCE on whom William Buick had gone down the inside route when challenging,. Buick's filly didn't look happy on the camber and I imagine connections will want her on a more conventional track like The Curragh or York next time. WAR CHIMES outran her 50/1 odds in third with Lingfield Oaks Trial winner YOU GOT TO ME beaten nine lengths in fourth in front of CAUGHT U LOOKING and favourite YLANG YLANG who was held up out the back by Moore but who failed to pick up much and for me didn't really stay. The winner is by Dubawi (he sired both first and second) out of Eziyra who ran third in both the Irish and Yorkshire Oaks in 2018. Clearly she likes a little bit of juice in the ground but I imagine The Curragh will be the next step - could she be an Arc contender? EZELIYA has certainly put down a marker to the 3-y-o middle distance colts. For Weld, it was a wonderful return to Epsom - as said, he doesn't have the numbers of other yards but at 75 and with 25 classic wins in England, he remains at the top of his profession.
