    • Coppins and Fredericks.  A healthy collect for all who bought a piece of the investment.
    • The Racing Integrity Board (RIB) plays a vital role in safeguarding fairness and public confidence in New Zealand’s racing industry and we’re offering a unique opportunity to begin your career in racing integrity through our trainee steward positions. Stipendiary Stewards are at the heart of racing integrity — overseeing race days and ensuring every race is run safely, fairly and in line with the Rules of Racing. It’s a dynamic, hands-on role where every day brings something different. The position covers responsibilities across both thoroughbred and harness racing, with a particular focus on one code based on preference and experience. What you’ll do Be an active member of the stewarding team at race meetings across the region. Review and analyse races to ensure they are conducted fairly and in compliance with the Rules of Racing. Support wagering integrity processes through collaboration with betting analysts, including the assessment of race form and the analysis of race performance. Conduct inquiries and support decision-making where rules are breached or concerns arise. Engage with trainers, riders and officials to ensure racing is conducted safely and in line with regulatory requirements. Complete a range of non-race day work including stable, venue and track inspections and oversee trials, workouts and jump-outs. Undertake routine welfare checks, working alongside veterinarians and trainers to help ensure high standards of animal welfare are maintained. Assist with the delivery of our prohibited substance management program, including supporting the sampling process and assisting investigations as required. Who You Are You’re confident, fair-minded and able to make good decisions under pressure. You value integrity, animal welfare and fair competition. You have an interest in racing and ideally an interest in horse husbandry and/or wagering. You’re keen to learn and build your skills as you grow in the role. You work well in a team and communicate clearly with a wide range of people. You stay calm in challenging situations and can manage conflict professionally. You’re analytical, curious and able to interpret information objectively. You’re adaptable and comfortable working varied hours when required. You’ll benefit from full training and close mentoring from experienced Stewards, helping you build the capabilities needed for a successful career in racing integrity.  Location The role will be based in the Waikato / Auckland region. This is a permanent fulltime role (40 hours per week). You will work to a roster, which will include evenings and weekends, based on when races are scheduled. Who we are The Racing Integrity Board (RIB) is a statutory body established under section 42 of the Racing Industry Act 2020, with a clear mandate to uphold integrity, animal welfare and professionalism across New Zealand’s racing industry. Our purpose — safe racing, fair racing and public confidence — guides our work across an industry that generates nearly 14,000 full-time equivalent jobs and contributes about $1.9 billion to New Zealand’s GDP annually. Why Join Us This is your opportunity to be part of the team that protects one of New Zealand’s most iconic and widely-supported sports — a sport deeply embedded in our culture. You’ll gain unique insight into racing operations and develop specialist skills that place you at the heart of racing. As a Stipendiary Steward, you’ll build strong capabilities in regulation, analysis and decision-making while playing a direct role in maintaining the integrity and reputation of New Zealand racing. This role offers far more than day-to-day duties — it’s a career grounded in purpose, continuous learning and challenge. The RIB provides a clear pathway for progression, ongoing development and the chance to make a meaningful difference to the sport and its participants. You’ll be part of a values-driven organisation committed to ensuring New Zealand racing is conducted safely, fairly, and with integrity.

    • I think your attitude show you've neve been on a club committee.
    • Geez Colin Wightman aka @Transparency is looking for you!  He has a deal on Tiny Homes!
    • I've met Des a few times and I liked his radio show and knowledge of racing.  Must go to the same hairdresser and suit tailor as Winston Peters and Roger James.   However I was surprised to learn when reviewing the WRC accounts over the years (checking how much they spent on maintenance) that Des was pulling a fairly decent fee for his promotional services.
