    • Both looking to make a mark on the competitive Kentucky circuit, trainer Joe Roberts and apprentice jockey Amanda Poston team up in the Claiming Crown with Empire's Best and Shotshell.View the full article
    • Entain coming on board looked like a reprieve to me.  We went along to the presentations and listened to the enthusiasm which gave a glimmer of hope amongst what seemed a fantasy.  Then a number at the top fell or were pushed from the perch. Even if we all wagered another $100 per week I don't know how we'd increase turnover to the required level. There have been so many new people employed surely someone has a different formula for success, other than selling assets.
    • You said - To be fair they havent shown the Melbourne Cup live for decades! That's a load of old cobblers. On every year. I don't have a tv but went to a pensioners house this year and we watched it on their old Sony.
    • Waipukurau is back on Sunday and I'd imagine it will be a huge oncourse event as a one off on a good day to attract the public.  The trick is to replicate that at every meeting for the club. Who knows what a good oncourse experience might produce, owners, workers etc. NZTR should never underestimate the community event.  The carnivals at the metropolitan venues are all well and good but, not the be all and end all of NZ Racing, despite what those who are knighted might tell us.
    • Edited Press Release Hall of Fame trainer Mark Casse returned to Oaklawn Park last season, winning nine races–a single-season personal best in Hot Springs–led by GI Arkansas Derby hero Sandman (Tapit). Casse could make an even bigger impact during the coming split meets because several of his most prominent horses will ship for Oaklawn's 64-day season that begins Dec. 12. The trainer, who received 25 stalls, already has horses on the grounds. “They'll come in stages,” Casse said from his Florida base on Thursday. “But we're going to bring our big guns there.” His top talent includes Sandman, GISW Nitrogen (Medaglia d'Oro), MGISW La Cara (Street Sense) and unbeaten Kentucky Derby prospect & 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard', Ewing (Knicks Go). Casse said that the four horses are now at his training center in Ocala. Sandman was turned out after his last start in late August. The son of Tapit resumed training about three weeks ago and looking at the schedule Casse said his ultimate goal would be the GII Oaklawn Handicap Apr. 18. As for Nitrogen, the accomplished filly could make her 4-year-old debut in the GII Azeri Stakes Mar. 7 then be ready for the GI Apple Blossom Handicap Apr. 11. La Cara, who netted a pair of Grade I races this year, will point to the GIII Bayakoa Stakes Feb. 7. Ewing was scheduled to make his two-turn debut in the GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity Stakes at Keeneland Oct. 4, but was scratched. “He had a minor injury,” Casse said. “We've taken care of that. We gave him some and he's just starting back.” Ewing's road to the Arkansas Derby Mar. 28 might begin with a January sprint. Casse's Oaklawn division is again being overseen by assistant Caden Arthur.
