    • Both the runners were well in the market there in that Manawatu race. Any idea on the amount BET that was placed on the winner to get everyone's Hackles Up ?? as far as the drive goes, any pre race discussion about who is leading is fine by me, even if recorded. Is good to know who is gunna press on and who isn't rather than guessing . If Blair had decided pre-race he was gunna hand up to that other horse is perfectly normal . people get driving instructions ALL the TIME from trainers too. (Allstars are absolute marvels at it over the years. 100% impressive )  Blair didn't seem to reduce his horses chances at all, (and neither did old mate Leonard Cain in that Queensland example up above) Plenty of Horses win getting a mid-race breather behind the leader.  Blair tried it with DON'T STop Dreaming in the NZ Cup recently. Should of just left the Aussie parked Out in my opinion as he (DSD)  could of won it then?  . Did my 50 bucks on DSD cold lol. 🤣 
    • Neil Grimstone the common denominator.
    • This verdict doesn't seem to take into account the tapped conversations prior to the race.
    • That's not entirely correct and at best is speculation. However those recordings could have been used in a criminal court but the Judge ruled that the evidence wasn't sufficient to prove guilt. So the question is why should an Agency such as the RIU(RIB) have a lesser threshold?  The RIB can't have it both ways where they remove someone's license because of a conviction in a higher court. "We didn't get you in the High Court but we'll get you in our lesser court using the evidence that won't get a conviction in the higher court!" Remember Teina Pora?
    • from over the ditch, a decline in betting. "That points to a trend of wagering companies reducing marketing spend, including free bets and other inducements, and becoming more focused on individual customer profitability. The challenge with that approach is that it has a compounding impact on turnover. As bookie margins increase, returns to punters drop and they become less likely to re-invest. There are implications for this, not only in terms of race fields revenue, but POCT as well." https://thestraight.com.au/a-78-million-hole-wagering-slump-and-funding-changes-smash-pras-bottom-lines/?ref=straight-up-newsletter
