record keeping by racing authorities has supposedly been improved. i think thats true,but also think it could be classified as a bit of cosmetic changes as well. so nz racing authorities have tried,and now they give the impression of better traceablity. the harness horses they seem to classify as deregistered these days,dead or still registered.. what happens to the follow up record keeping after they have been notified as deregistered,i'm not sure. looking at ours ,we still have horses shown as deregistered grazing in paddocks. the mares are still shown as being current.the ones that have died are shown as dead.i suppose thats because we have notified them each year . so record keeping is reliant on the owners replying properly to hrnz request for information.. Micro chipping was introduced fo harness foals bred about 4 years ago and i think is also applicable from this year to any thorougbred foals bred. personally i'm not a fan of micro chipping. big racing stables may have micro chip readers,but people who are the ones who care for the horses after finsihing racing are unlikely to. So it makes it harder for them. is their a requirement that pet food places in the future notify racing authorities of the identication of the horses they process. Because if its only a optional,then that wouldn't create a proper picture. the micro chipping itself was sold to people as being a method for easier traceability,but you only have to look to the USA ,where you saw horse animal welfare groups lobbied hard against it, as they quite rightly said it made it more difficult for people to identify harness horses at horse sales where the pet food operators active.Some well known harness breeders over there actually do both freeze branding and micro chipping ,just so their ex racehorses could be identified more easily after finishing their racing. the whole topic is very complex. -

That is what it was officially rated at. A Heavy 10. Initially you said 34 and change now 35 and shrapnel. They couldn't break 1:12.5 for 1200m and the last over 1600m was 1:42! Hardly a good track - closer to a Heavy 10 than Good! Via Sistena ran 1:26 which is 24 lengths slower than Fangirl did on a G4 at Randwick when winning the Apollo. Although Autumn Glow's win over 1100m was phenomenal. -

I went looking at what Ron Dufficy had to say about the ride, if anything. I found this on Racenet, It was a bit of a horror show for Ceolwolf from the start. He was a little bit slow away and settled much further back than expected, and then shoved right out wide in a place NOT to be on the turn. His effort was ENORMOUS considering the circumstances. On that, i will rest my case. Thank you, Linesmen and Ball Boys. -

Most races Sat they were able to run 35 and shrapnel last 600, even the 2000m horses, that's not a H10......NO...... Gamma is correct, Waller is NOT the Messiah, and his say has no more sway than the 'other' trainers.
