New Zealand punters will no longer be able to bet on racing and sports through Betfair from July 23. The legislative net which prohibits overseas-based operators taking bets from Kiwi punters came into force this month, enshrining a monopoly for Entain’s TAB NZ and betcha brands. Betfair, which holds a licence in Australia. advised New Zealand customers this week that it will cease offering markets on racing and sports events, but other markets, including political markets, will still be available. “We apologise for any inconvenience caused by the Upcoming Change and poorer user experience,” it said in statement. “Unfortunately, Betfair has to make the Upcoming Change to comply with the Legislative Amendment.” New Zealand is also looking to regulate its online casino market and this week the Online Casino Gambling Bill was introduced to parliament. “The Online Casino Gambling Bill will introduce a regulatory system for online gambling in New Zealand, which will prioritise harm minimisation, consumer protection, and tax collection,” Minister of Internal Affairs, Brooke van Velden, said. Fines of $5 million may be imposed on unregulated operators which target Kiwi customers. -

Breeding and Bloodstock could this happen in nz? By Tim Rowe - July 07, 2025 Breeders who fail to comply with foal ownership declaration (FOD) rules risk having their horses deemed ineligible to race, the national racing regulator has confirmed. Racing Australia is cracking down on delays on foal documentation. (Photo: Bronwen Healy - The Image Is Everything) Racing Australia is pressing ahead with stricter enforcement of the rules related to the 30-day foal declaration obligations placed on breeders. In a media release published on its website, RA reiterated that foals that are not registered within 60 days of birth will be flagged as ineligible to race. Breeders are charged $140 to lodge a FOD and $360 for an overdue declaration of between 30 and 60 days. “FODs that are lodged after 60 days will be accepted and charged the current fee of $140 but the foal will be flagged as not eligible to race. An email will be sent with an option to appeal the ineligibility,” the RA release said. “An Appeal can only be upheld if special or exceptional circumstances are proven and supported by documentation. A fee of $500 will be charged for the appeal which will be heard by an independent third party. “If the appeal is successful, the ineligibility to race will be removed and the appeal fee will be refunded and the late fee of $360 charged.” The Straight reported in May that Thoroughbred Breeders Australia raised concerns about the ramifications of a hardline stance set to be taken by RA over non-compliance with the FOD rules. One in six of the 11,666 foals born in Australia in 2024 did not have their mandatory ownership and location declarations lodged with the Australian Stud Book inside the 30-day deadline. ‘Sole and absolute discretion’ - one in six foals could be banned from racing under RA crackdown RA chief executive Paul Eriksson told this publication in May that unregistered foals born in 2024 spanned the hobby and large-scale commercial breeders. He said 27 per cent of foal declarations were lodged after the deadline in 2023 but a greater proportion of breeders met their obligations under the rules of racing in 2024. “That (figure) dropped last year to 16 per cent, which is a great result but out of that really there's only 5 per cent of the overall foal declarations that are really problematic that we will want to focus on,” Eriksson said at the time. As promised by Eriksson, RA has merged the Australian Stud Book mare return and FOD steps to a single process to make it easier for breeders to meet the deadline. “Racing Australia recognises that ineligibility to register and race your horse in Australia is a serious consequence for owners failing to comply with their lodgement obligations,” the RA release said. “However, enforcement of the rules is paramount to ensuring ongoing improvements in horse welfare and traceability.” In outlining the rules, RA said owners who sell an unregistered horse must disclose to potential purchasers whether there has been compliance with the lodgement obligations. -

NZB Kiwi heroine Damask Rose and Group 1-winning colt Return To Conquer have both joined Te Akau’s Australian stables at Cranbourne ahead of major spring targets. Damask Rose is being set for the ultimate aim of the $10 million Golden Eagle at Rosehill on November 1. She will resume in the Cockram Stakes at Caulfield on August 30 and then target both the Group 1 Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes and the Toorak Handicap before heading to Sydney. “She has settled in really well to out Cranbourne barn, we are really happy with her. She hasn’t missed a beat,” co-trainer Mark Walker told NZ Racing Desk. “She is still lightly raced and she has got a bright future.” Return To Conquer has also crossed the Tasman, with his major spring target also set to take place on November 1. Unbeaten across all four starts in New Zealand to date, including the G1 Sistema Stakes, Return To Conquer is headed towards the Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) at Flemington on Victoria Derby Day. “He is jumping out next Monday and he will be aimed towards the Coolmore Stud Stakes and see if he measures up to the sprinting three-year-olds over here,” Walker said. “He’s an exciting prospect.” Group 1-winning two-year-old filly La Dorada is also set for an Australian spring campaign. “La Dorada is over next week and she will be aimed towards the Thousand Guineas (Gr.1, 1600m) here,” Walker said. “She is just coming for the spring and then she will head back home for the Karaka Millions 3YO and NZB Kiwi.” -

OUR LADY (f, 3, Bolt d'Oro–Summer's Ready, by More Than Ready) made those that swallowed the 3-10 starting price sweat it out to the very finish, but the Canadian-based galloper saved her best for the final 100 yards, racing over the top of her fellow Pennsylvania-bred rivals to remain unbeaten in her three career starts to date in Monday's state-bred restricted Malvern Rose Stakes at Presque Isle Downs. A 6 1/4-length maiden winner at first asking over the Woodbine Tapeta on May 4, the $75,000 Fasig-Tipton February yearling turned $160,000 Fasig-Tipton Midlantic breezer added a May 24 optional claimer by better than four lengths against older rivals as the 1-4 chalk and was facing what appeared to be a step down in class for the Malvern Rose. Off only fairly, Our Lady was taken back to race at the tail of the field behind slow fractions, and Patrick Husbands was in no hurry to make his move around the turn. Electing to chart an inside course as opposed to trying to loop the field, the Barbadian rider finally found daylight for Our Lady about five off the inside at the furlong grounds, and she lengthened her stride nicely to score in a fashion easier than the half-length margin of victory might indicate. Our Lady is the 17th black-type winner for her sire in a race–then run over a two-turn mile–won by Shamrock Rose (First Dude) en route to a victory in the GI Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint in her 3-year-old season in 2018. Sales history: $75,000 Ylg '23 FTKFEB; $160,000 2yo '24 FTMMAY. Lifetime Record: 3-3-0-0. O-JDLP Holdings Inc; B-Blackstone Farm LLC (PA); T-Steven Chircop.
