    • I imagine that Hawkes Bay Racing Club members have to be consulted before release to the general public.  No doubt funding is required.
    • What's the hold up? This may or may not be accurate - but I am hearing the report's been completed but just not released. If that is correct - why has it not been released?  Was it never intended for public consumption?  Is it not good news?  Is the release still being worked up by the Corporate Communications Team?  Are the track team trying to complete some remediation work ahead of its release so it can be said some of the issues identified have already been rectified?      Speculation isn't always helpful, I know - but when there's an information vacuum - it does tend to thrive. I suggest some information would be welcomed by the stakeholders in the CD - especially given the first race on it is scheduled for 25 May - less than 2 weeks away now ....    J. 
    • Not sure what you mean by Steward's reports and or inquiries, nothing to do with them, it is the punters who can vent their disapproval of any jockeys ride. I watched Riverton yesterday and I was embarrassed by the quality of the riders, not all but many and I am not selecting the SI out solely, a lot of shockers up North as many will agree with.Any way give it some thought and get back to me.      
    • Yep - same fences - just "propped" to be more upright & therefore higher for the steeples than the hurdles to provide the stiffer test. Could definitely hear the horses more often making contact with the wooden part of the fences once they were configured in steeplechase mode ....   
    • Puts a lot of other things in perspective.  The ripples will spread a long way from this - but it's the family at the centre of it who will be foremost in our thoughts.  Whilst respecting their need to negotiate this tragedy in their space & time & in their own way - we will hope they feel the love & support of all those whose lives they have touched in any way - and indeed the well wishes of strangers too.  Utterly heartbreaking.     Jess
