    • That's him, nice picture, I think Paul Falvey may have ridden him the odd time,
    • it says exceptional circumstances. if it was a vet certificate supplied it would have said.(don't give them ideas gammalite as they may get one to cover their arse after the fact).LOL. my guess is dalgety has been told by hrnz to put his horse in,even though hrnz would be aware he had no intention to start. in other words,hrnz and dalgety were all part of a plan to ensure the race was run and they would get paid the higher stake. Thats my guess. Thats the way it works if you observe closely enough. And the stipes have green lighted such behavior. Its actually quite serious .But no one will care because of who it involves.
    • Went a good race for 5th in the Rowe Cup last year beating home Oscar Bonavena, Mighty Logan, Not As Promised and Midnight Dash. It has also trotted a half in 55 at Addington so based on that it was a shoe in last night.
    • Sigh, did you get to see the great black and white photos from meetings back in the 1920's...  the curse was packed!! this photo does not quite the grandeur  of the stands!
    • Yes , I think mostly they don't penalise with a vets certificate. Vet only has to put in one or 2 words for a trainer as to why an Accepted runner has scratched. Vets a pretty loyal to their customers. Sometimes a trial needs to be run by said horse if stewards order it, but we have plenty of trials they run like workouts between our races Tuesdays and Thursdays. A shame for the Handicapper trying to put on 2 year old races for you. They need to start now as is near the end of summer. I said to Brodie about the 8 2 year olds that lined up at Pukekohe in 2 heats last Tuesday trials.  so hopefully a race or can put on for them March sometime.   Our Albion 2 year-olds normally go a few weeks at the Tuesday day meetings,  where no one is betting much at all,  and they (the 2 year olds) can scramble around and learn their craft. I see one of these is on Next Tuesday Race 1 Albion for $9000 . a nice 7 horse field of first starters,  which is just right to avoid any tight racing on them.  so less likely to make errors.
