    • So the 150+ year paramount objective of the Club is over ridden with no consideration to those members who developed the assets to pursue their chosen sport of racing. I think you are deliberating obfuscating the point to suit an ill advised agenda.  Racing AND the people of Westland could have benefited by the Club investing in Kumara which is officially in the District of Westland.   You also ignore the clause immediately above the one you quote: In the event of the Club being wound-up or put into liquidation in accordance with (a) above, the property and surplus assets of the Club after payment of the Club's liabilities and the expenses of the winding-up must be disposed of in accordance with section 27 of the Racing Act, for racing, public, charitable, or other purposes in the manner that the Club, with the approval of NZTR, determines.  
    • I think you miss the point. Once members resolved to not continue to pursue the object of racing at Hokitika, dispose of surplus assets, and dissolve the club, the original objectives were no longer. The constitution still said that in the event of dissolution the club would seek NZTR approval to dispose of surplus assets "for the benefit of the people of Westland", NOT for the benefit of racing.
    • Mrs. John Magnier, Derrick Smith, and Michael B. Tabor's Plutarch (Into Mischief) has been ruled out of consideration for the GI Kentucky Derby, according to an updated Road to the Kentucky Derby leaderboard sent by Churchill Downs Wednesday. Trainer Bob Baffert confirmed to Daily Racing Form the colt emerged from his win in the GIII Robert B. Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita Feb. 7 with body soreness and will remain in light training. Plutarch, a son of 2015 champion 3-year-old filly and 2017 $6-million Keeneland-topping mare Stellar Wind (Curlin), has not been off the board in six starts, including in the GI American Pharoah Stakes and the GIII Del Mar Juvenile Turf Stakes at two.

    • For a Green Bay Packers fan like Paul Farr, it was hard to watch his team squander an 18-point lead and lose to the Chicago Bears in the NFL playoffs. A month later, on the frozen tundra of Aqueduct Racetrack, he suffered another heartbreaking loss.View the full article
    • English football icon Harry Redknapp said that his late grandmother, the inspiration for his love of horse racing, “wouldn’t believe” he had a horse that is “running in the [Cheltenham] Gold Cup”. Redknapp owns The Jukebox Man, who is vying to be the favourite for the race that is regarded as the blue riband of jumps racing and the climax to the Cheltenham Festival on March 13. “It would be a dream wouldn’t it,” Redknapp said of winning it. “I love my racing. Football, obviously, has been my...View the full article
