However, not all recent developments have been positive. I was genuinely dismayed and saddened to read that the Graded Stakes' Committee has downgraded the Thorndon Mile from Group 1 to Group 2 status. I do believe that such decisions risk causing enormous harm to our racing industry. In Australia, for example, the equivalent committee has not met for eight years, ensuring no changes to its black-type programme. Yet here in New Zealand, we are 'doing the right thing' working with the Asian Pattern group and we are thus witnessing the downgrading of races like the Levin Classic – a race whose honour roll includes champions such as Imperatriz (winner), On the Bubbles (second), and I Wish I Win (third) – the latter now widely acclaimed as one of the greatest milers in Australia over the past two seasons. My plea to NZTR is simple: please reconsider this course. If we continue to diminish the status of our premier races, we risk undermining the very foundation of our industry. We cannot afford to weaken our black-type races if we hope to sustain a vibrant and internationally respected racing scene. -
Being of course held at Te Rapa. Most of the fields look reasonable. I note 8 acceptors from the CD and 1 from the South Island, but no horses from the Hawkes Bay itself. Why is that? it is their race meeting I did a quick check Hastings to Hamilton is 300km or 4 hrs, almost identical to the distance and time to Wellington.

Science is pretty much absolute Gamma (LB), and that which isn't is always under review by the scientific community. You can pretty much guarantee, if you jump off the Sky Tower, what your velocity will be when you hit the concrete, based on the conversion of potential into kinetic energy, and why every organ and bone in your body will be obliterated as that energy is dissipated as you go from that velocity to zero in the space of a milli second. Sorry, about as morbid as some of Becks Nairn's dissection pics

Steven B has talked about for any such work to be taken seriously, it needs to be peer reviewed. This is not just the scientific voracity of the work itself but the author This may involve such things as Who funds the authors' work. What motives the author may have for producing the work What other work has the author published What links does the author have to other people and organisations
