Clearly comprehension of your own words isn't your strong suit.  And I quote ..... "So , who is at fault the most, HRNZ for allowing the horse to start or the trainer for failing to work out the horse was ineligible. Given it won should it be disqualified, as i said " its  a shambles" The winner was eligible for the race. This is simply a fact despite your complete misunderstanding of the race eligibility conditions The enquiry is NOT into the winner or any of it's connection. The enquiry IS into the late changes in the race conditions, and the failure for these changes to be properly advertised. As previously stated, your lack of understanding of the rules has lead to your misguided aim. Probably best that you await the outcome of the enquiry to help you join the dots.

What you wont see in the media … That's proper leadership! WHAT TRUMP JUST DID, AND WHY THE WORLD IS SHAKING FROM IT. While the Left obsessed over headlines and gender pronouns, President Donald J. Trump spent the last 7 days doing what real leaders do: saving lives, reasserting America’s power, and getting results. Here’s everything they don’t want you to know: 1. He Stopped a Nuclear War Between India and Pakistan Things got hot in Kashmir. Really hot. Both sides were mobilizing. Nukes were on the table. Trump stepped in. Quietly. Firmly. And brought both sides back from the edge. Pakistan thanked him publicly. India pretended they did it alone — but insiders know who made the calls that saved the world. That’s not diplomacy. That’s deterrence with teeth. 2. He’s Bringing Putin to the Negotiating Table There’s a peace summit being arranged in Turkey. Ukraine’s in. Russia’s sending delegates. Trump says he’ll go himself. Just his presence is enough to move the needle. Putin, for the first time, isn’t slamming the door shut. Biden couldn’t even get a voicemail returned. Trump is reshaping the battlefield by showing up. 3. He Hammered China — Got Them to Blink Trump forced China to the table: • 90-day pause in the tariff war • Immediate cuts to key tariffs • A crackdown on fentanyl exports to the U.S. Let’s be clear: Trump’s the first American president to actually get China to move on fentanyl. Not talk. Not task forces. Action. 4. $600 Billion Saudi Investment Secured In Riyadh, Trump locked down the biggest economic deal in U.S.–Saudi history: • $142 billion arms deal (massive boost to U.S. manufacturing) • Over $600 billion in new investments into American infrastructure, energy, and tech It’s a triple win: jobs, energy independence, and a Middle East that fears us again — not the other way around. 5. $200 Billion Boeing Deal from Qatar Trump helped land a mega-contract between Qatar Airways and Boeing for 210 jets — worth over $200 billion. That deal: • Revives Boeing • Puts Americans back to work • Strengthens our aerospace edge over China And it wouldn’t have happened under a DEI-obsessed, apology-driven administration. 6. He Lifted Sanctions on Syria — With a Hidden Blow to Iran Trump lifted select U.S. sanctions on Syria — but only after securing conditions to: • Expel Iranian-backed militias • Rebuild with Gulf money, not Russian or Iranian influence It’s a strategic strike against Iran’s grip on the region. He didn’t fire a missile. He just cut their legs out from under them with deals and pressure. 7. He Brought the Last American Hostage Home from Gaza While Biden stood back and hoped, Trump made a direct diplomatic push through Egypt and Qatar to get the final American hostage — a 26-year-old aid worker — released from Hamas. And he succeeded. Quietly. No ransom. No deal with terrorists. Just leverage. This wasn’t just a headline. This was a message: You harm an American, you pay. 8. Gas, Groceries, and Eggs — All Cheaper This Week Thanks to Trump’s trade wins and Middle East diplomacy: • National gas average dropped to $3.13 • Grocery prices fell 0.4% — biggest drop in 5 years • Egg prices crashed 12.7% — fastest decline since 1984 This isn’t stimulus checks. This is real economic policy that works. 9. Inflation Is Cooling, Markets Are Up • CPI is holding steady at 2.3% • S&P 500 just passed 5,900 — fully rebounding • Investor confidence is roaring back People are finally catching their breath again. 10. He Just Cracked the Back of Big Pharma Trump signed an executive order that: • Ties drug prices to what countries like Canada and Germany pay • Forces direct-to-consumer pricing • Cuts middlemen out of the equation Drug prices may drop 30–80%. And for once, the courts can’t block it. 11. Doubled Down on School Choice He declared Charter Schools Week and reminded every American parent: Your kid’s future belongs to you — not some woke school board. 12. 150 Executive Orders and Counting In just over 100 days, Trump has: • Dismantled Biden’s DEI infrastructure • Streamlined bloated federal agencies • Relaunched energy independence • Cut off foreign influence in domestic policy This is what rebuilding America looks like — brick by brick, signature by signature. THE BOTTOM LINE: In one week, Trump: • Averted a nuclear war • Brought Putin to the table • Shut down China’s fentanyl pipeline • Crushed grocery and gas prices • Landed $800B+ in foreign investments • Reasserted U.S. dominance in aerospace • Cut Iran’s influence • Freed an American hostage • Lowered drug prices • Protected your kids’ schools • Reignited the economy That’s what real leadership looks like. No teleprompter. No stutters. No apologies. Just America First — again. Writers Credit: Colquitt County Republican Party

My understanding is there will be a legal challenge by GRNZ with a very high profile lawyer who has won some decisions in the past regarding unfair govt legislation based on half truths/lies. There is some backing here for a case but I am unsure how far it will actually go or how strong this argument would hold up in court for the Greyhoud Industry.

Well its May 17th now and I dont see any fat ladies singing. Only person I have seen trying to raise any sort of awareness has been Chloe Watson. GRNZ and The board have completely failed to do anything here and most of the licensed holders seem to have either given up already or think somethings going to change. You are never going to get this ban overturned in court like the board thinks they can, all of the parties agree on this stance and far bigger industries have been outlawed in NZ historically. GRNZ and the LPs needed to get public support behind overturning the ban and quickly but I think the time for that has already passed now unfortunatly.
