            By Harry Newshound · Posted 2 minutes ago

            NZTR winter stakes announcement

            By scooby3051 · Posted 54 minutes ago

            But they dont fit the agenda. Nah we can do this racing thing with less tracks, just use them more and when they are stuffed and Riccarton cant handle a meeting put up the stakes and force everyone to use the Poly. They got no other options so the owners and trainers will have to fall into line.

            By scooby3051 · Posted 57 minutes ago

            And sadly the board is full of members of the Old boys club...Self interest first,,,racing interests second. I think the corporate mentality is so entrenched now nobody has the guts to say hey are you sure this is right for fear of getting shown the door from the gravy train.

            Collective half-wits, don't you mean?   Surely the CEO, although the public face of NZTR,  must carry out the decisions/policy of the Board?

            Oamaru and Timaru both; generally superior winter footing is offered at those two under-utilised venues and support would help the southern region greatly.

            Improving Weather Forecast Ahead of Preakness Weekend

            Thanks for the kind words, my friend. It's a busy time up here as we approach the Derby and Oaks (the latter just three weeks away) and there's not much time to breathe before Royal Ascot.

            At the next Asian Racing Conference Matt Ballsey will be salivating about these stake increases. Will be totally silent about multiple race winners competing for a derisory $17,000. Maidens at fourth or fifth tier meetings in Victoria or NSW race for double that amount.

            So true PS they are a class above the rest . I bet Craig couldn't believe his luck getting that run through and what a run by Choc's . Great result that everyone was hoping to see

            Chestnut foals

            By Peter R S · Posted 9 hours ago

            When we sent Mauna Kea to the ready to run sale, the word around was that Mr Wolf disliked the chestnuts, and as he was the biggest buyer at that time they wouldn’t sell well. He didn’t sell, but that was a great result. That’s him in my profile picture, 8 wins including a Group3, and a real buzz in our lives. As someone else said in this thread, it’s all bullshit. There’s plenty of other physical attributes to judge a 2yo on, but colour doesn’t determine their likely success on the racetrack. Thank you Boris for all the fun.

            By Pure Steel · Posted 10 hours ago

            he's pretty brave the choc's . A lovely horse. but the death seat outside Marketplace is just a bridge to far. on several occasions now. those 2  horses tonight seemed way too good for Telfer's Colt. MP and the Choc's Would be the NZ Derby Quinella late in year if the Aussies don't turn up. they have the Velocity to have a crack at too Cup week for some Big Bucks.
