Games like Friday nights, Alcatraz playing, the longer it goes many get on the bandwagon, many change channels, like it or not. Before Sunday racing many clubs raced Friday, or moved to Monday when All Black's played, reason being racing was on a hiding to nothing, that's kind of sorted itself with Sunday Racing, night Rugby, don't underestimate the drawing power some sporting events like Friday draw, and as many bets are only placed in the last 15 minutes, so if people switch off you see the result, if that's not the case then a 60000 mares race at Addington pales into insignifacance as opposed to a country cup race at Oamaru on a Sunday afternoon, it's just the way it is. -
Page 2 of 2 A Club must submit fully completed Race Meeting Track Information Sheets to NZTR ahead of each meeting as per the times outlined at the bottom of that document. A Club must ensure that the Racecourse Manager or their delegate has inspected the track in person both 48 hours and 24 hours before the start of the race meetings and again by 6.45am on race morning. A Club is encouraged to arrange track gallops on the course 48 hours prior to the race meeting. A Club must arrange for a track gallop on the course on the morning of the race meeting to reconfirm the declared track rating, unless this is not practical -
They don't gallop in front of the stipes. It's before track conditions are confirmed. Can't say I've ever seen it not done or that someone cant tell me who rode them so I can get an opinion. but it might be difficult at the likes of Trentham.

Does the protocol mention the Stipes must be in attendance? They delegate other tasks such as issuing barrier certificates. A jockey riding a gallop can relay his/her thoughts to anyone. If that jockey thinks there's a problem the Stipe is on the end of a phone. Not sticking up for either side as I'm not sure of the exact wording of that protocol. I don't think excuses should be made for not galloping prior to the races. Even tracks that don't have horses trained on site should source some for the exercise, like Tauherenikau does. -

Why are you sure they must have galloped? In the last 18 months I've been on two courses raceday from sparrow fart time and haven't seen any gallops. The Stipes didn't pitch up until an hour before race 1.
