It appeared that this Committee suggested by Winston was going to be formed to help sort out all racing in NZ, both thoroughbreds and harness! has it ever been formed and anything discussed or just another load of baloney? Racing in NZ is well past the crossroads and is heading into demise bigtime unless they can have people actually do something about it! Personally speaking doesn’t really effect me there’s nothing more certain than a very reduced level of horse racing in NZ once the guaranteed funds from Entain are gone! Just reality but I believe we have a very short period to perform and not squander or it is over! Hopefully Brodie is incorrect but it does not appear to be pretty. -

The number of horses eligible for December’s Harness 5000 meeting at Ashburton continues to soar. Every week the Harness 5000 Progress Tracker is updated to show the number of horses who have reached the qualifying threshold for the meeting. Last week the figure was 117. The week before that it was 83. Now it is at 136. The “168” on the tracker signifies all 12 races having full 14-horse fields. It is however anticipated that around 350 horses will be in the mix come December, though this figure could fluctuate. The Harness 5000 is for trotters and pacers whose sire stood for an advertised retail service fee of $5,000 or less in the breeding season of conception and to be eligible horses must compete in at least five race day starts between July 3 – December 9,2025. On December 21 there will be $60,000 finals in each of the 12 categories. All will be 1700 metre mobiles. So far the biggest categories are for the 5YO and older Entires and Geldings. There are currently 31 pacers and 30 trotters. To see the Harness 5000 leaderboard click here View the full article -

By Adam Hamilton If former star mare Cyclone Kate was human, she would be one heck of a proud mum watching on. Her latest progeny Cyclone Rebel, a colt by Bettor’s Delight, made quite a splash winning his first start at staggeringly big odds at Alexandra Park last Friday week. He steps up quickly again to try and overcome an awful draw (gate 12) and win again in a heat of the Sires’ Stake series at the same track this week. Almost 5400 kilometres away and in a different country, Cyclone Rebel’s older half-brother Cyclone Jordy returns to racing in the $35,000 Battle of Bunbury on Saturday night. The nuggety three-year-old is chasing his 11th successive win, the past nine of those since being bought by clients of champion trainer Gary Hall Sr for a reported $400,000 and joining his stable. Cyclone Jordy had five starts in NZ for three wins and a second before crossing the ditch. Hall Sr doesn’t hide his excitement. “He’s special,” he said. “He’s the equal of any of the best three-year-olds I’ve trained … Alta Christiano, The Falcon Strike and Chicago Bull, none were better than him. “It hasn’t been easy getting races for him with our ratings system. “If the three-year-old races don’t stand-up, and they rarely do when people see him nominated, he’d have to race against free-for-allers because he’s won 10 in a row. I refuse to do that.” Cyclone Jordy will dominate betting again from gate two at Bunbury. The $200,000 Group 1 WA Derby on October 31 is Cyclone Jordy’s most immediate feature target. Beyond Bunbury, there is a WA Derby Prelude slated for Gloucester Park on October 3. In other stable news, 2023 Auckland Cup winner Better Eclipse has joined the growing team of Hall Sr’s son, Gary Jnr. They train from the same property. Better Eclipse won three Group 1 races, including the Chariots Of Fire and Sunshine Sprint, in a phenomenal stint with trainer Jess Tubbs and her late husband, Greg Sugars. He also finished second to Leap To Fame in the 2023 Brisbane Inter Dominion final. Tubbs confirmed he left her stable last month. “It was sad to see him go, he’s been a real favourite, but I’m just glad he’s gone to a good stable and will be well looked after,” she said. Better Eclipse will be set for the $450,000 Group 1 WA Pacing Cup in December. Interestingly, Hall Jr is the regular driver of nominal WA Cup favourite Mister Smartee, who won the huge Nullarbor/Fremantle Cup double in April/May. He returned a spell with a fourth to Magnificent Storm in the free-for-all after sitting outside the leader and winner last Friday night. “I was pleased with the run,” Hall Sr said. “He needed it and Magnificent Storm was race fit and always going to dictate and run along.” Hall has opted to back-up Mister Smartee quickly this week where he will start from outside the front row (gate eight) in an easier free-for-all over 2130m. His most fascinating rival is one-time glamour pacer Captain Ravishing, who has changed ownership and is first-up for the Lindsay Harper stable from gate three. View the full article
