    • Ciaron Maher is new trainer at Leilani Lodge at Royal Randwick www.racenet.com.au Ciaron Maher, the nation's premier trainer, has been given the keys of famous Leilani Lodge at Royal Randwick. The Australian Turf Club board had a phone hook-up early on Thursday morning as some directors were overseas and determined Maher's application for the High Street stable complex had been successful. It is understood the board decided on Maher over the Gai Waterhouse-Adrian Bott training partnership. Maher is the nation's reigning premier trainer and with 279 wins on all tracks so far in the 2024-25 season, he is on track to retain the title.   He will also win another Melbourne trainers premiership as his 98 wins so far this season has him well clear of Team Hayes on 64 wins. Maher has also trained the winners of 10 Group 1 races including The Everest (Bella Nipotina) and Caulfield Cup (Duke De Sessa) this season to be second only to Chris Waller (19 wins) for most Group 1 wins. With stable earnings of $57.2 million already this season, Maher has set a new national prizemoney record – with still more than a month of the season remaining. Maher's growing presence in Sydney racing has some suggesting he could one day challenge Waller's premiership dominance. • J-Mac gets on the board at Royal Ascot Leilani Lodge has been with the Cummings family for five decades until Anthony Cummings was forced to vacate the stables when his trainer's licence was revoked by Racing NSW in early March after his business went into liquidation. Anthony's father, the legendary Bart Cummings, first moved into Leilani Lodge at Randwick in the early 1980s and won a Sydney trainers' premiership from those stables in 1989-90. An original Hall of Fame inductee, Bart Cummings prepared some of his greatest champions out of Leilani Lodge including Saintly, So You Think, Beau Zam, Shaftesbury Avenue, Sky Chase, Campaign King, Dane Ripper and many others.
    • Tabcorp and NSW government’s delicate dance as Gill hunts the trifecta By Bren O'Brien - June 19, 2025 When NSW treasurer Daniel Mookhey delivers his third state budget on Tuesday, there is unlikely to be any mention of a rise in Point of Consumption Tax (POCT) or the ongoing review of Tabcorp’s deal in the state. Tabcorp chief executive Gillon McLachlan is pushing for a NSW reform deal to be integrated into his broader goal broader goal of creating a national tote pool. (Photo: The Image is Everything - Bronwen Healy & Darren Tindale Photography) This time last year, speculation was rife that Mookhey would look to lift the NSW POCT rate from 15 to 20 per cent, much to the chagrin of racing administrators, wagering executives and professional punters. However, a week out from the 2024 budget, the treasurer announced a review into Tabcorp’s licensing agreements in NSW after receiving a proposal from the wagering giant to create what it calls a ‘level playing field’ – although its rivals beg to differ. Put simply, it wanted a similar deal to what it had achieved in Victoria and Queensland and was willing to pay a considerable fee – said to be around $700 million  - to buy out of its current exclusivity deal which runs until 2033.

    • Take this image for example what does it prove?  Nothing.  However in the context of the Topic it was posted under it infers a lot.  That's misinformation.  Of course you can't see where the other Jockey was whipping their horse because there is no vision of it even for the Stewards.  A rule that can't be accurately enforced.
    • On BOAY these posters would be warned (as they should be under @Comic Dog rules) for stating things out of context and without proof.  However I guess the quest for traffic out weighs principles.  Of course BUCKY hasn't got the spine to state who he is referring to but just tells a story full of inferences.   @Comic Dog if you are following your own rules then where is the "proof" that there are rules for some and not others?
