    • If he HAD crossed the line, he would have been close to being found guilty wouldn't he. Same thing.
    • UNWRITTEN RULE (c, 3, Justify–Jewish Guilt, by Curlin) was one of the few first-timers in the field in this rained-off sprint debut. Prominent throughout from just off the leader, the 5-2 second choice kept things tight into the turn through an opening quarter in :22.44. Moving between rivals with just over a quarter-mile left to run, Unwritten Rule burst clear of Troubleonthegreen (World of Trouble) to win by two lengths. Glen Hill purchased Jewish Guilt for $425,000 as a yearling from Keeneland September 2019. That mare, a winning daughter of Curlin, has since produced a 2-year-old Olympiad filly and a filly by Girvin this year. She's due to Army Mule this term. 8th-Tampa Bay Downs, $34,300, Msw, 2-5, 3yo, 5f (off turf), :58.13, gd, 2 lengths.Sales History: $575,000 RNA Ylg '24 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $18,240. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV. O/B-Glen Hill Farm (KY); T-Thomas F. Proctor.

    • I think this statement is pretty close to the mark.  If you read social media you could very quickly come to the conclusion that the industry is close to self-destructing.  What % does social media represent, don't know but you would have to say very small.  A large percentage you would hope are getting on with racing horses for money that has never been higher in NZ, sustainable or not. Social media also tends to attract a bitter type with an axe to grind, who can let off steam anonymously.  Probably makes them feel better. Wightman defends his continued personal attacks on the FB group by saying, he has huge support because the numbers there have grown from 4.000 to 7,000. I guess the counter to this, and a phenomenon that Pete Lane alerted me to, is that misery loves company.  Seems to be the way across all social media, people flock to someone having a go If you look closely at that site, it is a small number of people, many of whom have radical views anyway, making a lot of noise. NZTR will never engage social media, anyone who thinks that is deluded  
    • Why are you continuing to make excuses for violence in the workplace? Even that disgusting 'sport' cage fighting have DQ's for deliberate fouls Maybe Silly Billy could get involved in that...after all they allow a full reverse Nelson combined with a frontal knee to the head which more than likely will result in your taxes going to his care when demintia sets in at 40...well done
    • they did cut the stakes paid out for the placegetters at addington. thats a common sense approach by hrnz as far as that race goes. they need to have some policy for all racing in nz as they have to start limiting the financial loss they must be generating by running those small field races And of course it should be applied not just to sothern racing,but to northern racing as well. Like they have a 5 horse race at auckland this week and they still seem to be paying out the full stake.It should be the same for them as well you would think.
