Having become his sire's first group 1 winner in the Southern Hemisphere, and second globally, when landing Randwick's Champagne Stakes (G1) in April, the Godolphin homebred Broadsiding took his form to even further heights June 15.View the full article -

Not sure Rev, I think he was just getting in too a nice doze and out of a half open eye her approach seemed threatening and startled him. The perfume theory could well be right though 🙂 Interesting about Ardee One and Swannys, certainly popular in their day - my school one was blue and black check which was outnumbered by the amount of red and black check options. A red and black Swanndri must surely have been highly offensive to the mare... -

Dynamite ....$5,500 per month is extortion! I had a horse with Mark Purdon a few years back and when he put his training fee's up to $92.00 per day I went white! (not that I was black before that 🤣) .....but even though he was the best of the best I still thought $92.00 per day was way over the top......but looking back he was worth it. I know its 2024 but horses don't win $5,500 per month unless they are open class..... and don't start me on Vet fee's ....they charge whatever they want.....even milage!! Its just getting way too expensive to race a horse unless you chop it up. -

Bill Autridge, Bob's dad and Steven and Toby's grand father always told me as a kid to beware the dozing, sleeping horse. Bill had the Black Smith cauldren of hot shoeing and anvils in Matamata. He shod thoroughbreds and giant Draft horses. As a kid about 1955 I used to watch him . He taught us all to be cautious around dozing horses.Some could doze off andrespond to smells. Like a perfume. And foals who have a lethal kick . Years later Bill's advice probably saved my body many injuries. My brother trained a mare called Ardee One. She reacted negatively to Red colours and swandrys.Put her ears back and stretched the tie ups at Cambridge to any male wearing a swanny! He also had another Group One mare, Fleur de Lune who loved my wife's perfume.Chrystel Noir. Fleur was a gem but near her peak fitness could be very colty .Caution was needed . After her Foxbridge Plate win and Railway Victory she loved being soothed with that Chrystel Noir fumes. Maybe the Kings Horse reacted the way he did because the lady in the video had a cheap perfume ?? Thought s?? . -
A mate of mine said the comments were generated by a data entry company most of whom are non racing people.

No music here apart from the sweet sound of the Bike. Bruce Anstey, one of our greats and somewhat of an unsung hero (possibly due to his nature) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Anstey -
Deep Sooth this sounds like a very unfortunate situation that ends badly for both parties…. A friend of a friend in Christchurch has a share in a horse that raced today , trained by the leading stable in NZ, and they had to give the senior training parter a share in the horse as the monthly bill, including vet bills, were well in excess of $5500 per month….

Bang go and the Beauview Topaz has a length on the field and travelling. Yes it didn't show much fight but highlights again how weak the starter is when the field are not on the same level. Donkey Donnelly has learnt well off his teacher Mr RIGHTTTTTTTTTT While I am on the moan Alan Clark put a professional driver on and your horse will win a race or two (George Eliot for example) - your respect on the track is nil - you will never be given the lead doesn't matter how much you want it.

Yes, you are right Mike each to their own, my mother liked the Seekers as well as Jim Reeves and other old ladies' music. But not liking AC/ DC you need to make sure that you do not express your opinion on them if you ever visit The Tron or Mullet Hutt.

Yes, in the end you're dead right. In this case "being right" has cost him a long time owner that had varying sized interests in about 6 other horses in the stable as well, and the word is he isn't the only owner affected heading for the front gate when the lease in question ends next month. Doing the "right thing" will always trump blindly doing what you have the "right to do" in the long run! -
zelda keep your tips to yourself, or just back horses with J McDonald (nz) on board. or dig up another kero tin, n0?

FF….. I do agree as C Hart does it here better than anyone… But certain NZ drivers “jerk” on the reigns…. And you see the horses heads get thrown into the air…. D Dunn and C Dalgety are identical and are extremely kind on the horses and it’s mouth and go with momentum of the horse…

Dynamite....leaning back on the horses bit in the mouth kids it into thinking its going better than it is if that makes sense...... the horse feels stronger if its up on the bit rather than those drivers that throw the reins at it. Dexter Dunn was (and still is) the master at it.....and going way back to Maurice Holmes (one of the greatest of all time) he used to 'knot' the reins for a stronger grip so he could do it.....and boy didn't they respond over the last furlong. -
I attended Menangle last night and witness young gun drivers like J Callahan… I watch NZ races and some drivers , Williams,Dunn , keep pulling back on the horses mouth up the straight and I wonder why……..? You notice the horses head jolt and must stop their momentum….. Hart, Trainor , Callahan , Grima , McCarthy all sit balanced and do not do this on the horses mouth….

Of course you can. Happens every day of the week in the Courts and laboratories around the world.

The grounds for divorce in many celeb splits are simply ‘irreconcilable differences’. In this case I believe there was some suggestion of inappropriate workplace behaviour of a historic nature, but ultra high net worth individuals like Bill Gates are more at risk from people who make those allegations in the hope of a payout.

You can’t prove a negative Gruff, the onus of proof rightly rests with the person making the allegation. He may or may not be a wanker. From his Wikipedia page he doesn’t appear to be in that category, quite the opposite in fact.

https://harnesslink.com/canada/highland-kismet-blows-them-away-in-225000-goodtimes/ Gapped at the gate, 3 wide and blows the doors off some really good 3yo trotters. His driver never asked him to run and said he was under a hols at the finish. Not bad for a horse who had his 1st ever race less than 6 weeks ago. The Hambletonian is coming up in August and there will be of the greatest young trotters ever. TCI won 1.25 million as a 2yo and is 2 for 2 this year when stakes racing started 3 weeks ago. That 1.25m is a record for any 2yo Karl who destroyed TCI in the Breeders Crown is 3 for 3 this year and Yanick Gingras said he is the best horse he has ever driven and that includes pacers. I don't know how true this is but I heard from a friend that They think Karl can and will trot in 1:48. That of course is unheard of. If they all get to the Hambletonian you can get they break 1.50 at The Meadowlands that would be a stakes record time but a 3yo ran 1.49.3 in a supporting race two years back In October they race in Kentucky at The Red Mile and that track is the fastest track in the US. An older trotter went 1.48.3 there like 7 years ago so Karl could probably slaughter than time. When you can beat FFA pacers at home with a 3yo teotter, he must be really special -
Just reached nadir with Henry Winkler " Others better at this stage " Paid $ 2.90 to win. Race before horse that ran 2nd " Hard to have " paid $ 2 place. I note even other print out said horse in the first " Hard to make a case for " Went out favourite and won. Yes, you don't go by the comments but surely you may as well not bother as have this bullshit. It happened few times during the week, writing off horses completely that paid under $ 3. It's crazy !
