TAB, it is good that you are prepared to defend the HRNZ decision msking! However you are defending them with blind faith, as anyone with any semblance of business sense knows that the way things are going, harness racing is a dead duck in the next 10 years! The wasteful spending without any thought to the medium future is just crazy, however we all know that those currently making these decisions will be gone well before that! Seriously why is the Winston committee taking so long to meet, as surely they will be overturning many of the announcements that HRNZ have made or harness is DOOMED! -

Mark Jones comes from a Family who COULD be referred to as Harness Racing Royalty . Plus I seem to remember he was on the Council of Trainers and Drivers of NZ. Maybe the chair or deputy Chair ,so I assume this gave him a fairly direct line to the decision makers who he so directly criticises. I see B Mowbray now heads the Canterbury division so maybe Mark stepped aside tho his photo and name still appears on the website as Vice-chair. And maybe Mark wrote this letter as a private communication and didn't intend it to be so public ...but accidentally on purpose distributed it widely. Cos surely A license holder criticising HRNZ and some employees so publicly will be against the Rules and Regulations of HRNZ ....bringing it and them into disrepute . Maybe he has put his horses in somebody elses name ??????.....to let loose !!! -

The pricing has been terrible for years now. Never been a better time for turning a profit. Hardest part is trying not to to get banned when taking advantage. I need a bigger family group of accounts to use lol. When they get those prices like Moonlight Blood completely wrong on opening they also get a double hit with the attention it gains through the commentators waffling on about it as well as Ben from Betcha etc. If they opened it at its true price of around 5.00 - 6.00 there would have been nowhere near as much bet on it. It may even have gone out in the odds a bit but so many noticed the move they all piled on. -
Quite a risky buy for a yearling? . several million ? cannot understand it. The first Winx foal is still an un-raced 2 year old as yet ? Chicken king-ess Debbie buying it herself for a Humungous $10,000,000 😳 good grief. The Yulong bloke paid $6,000,000 odd for Via Vistina from overseas to bring to Waller. That seems a much more sensible idea.? ? she was winning Group 1's already at Ascot/Newmarket /UK if you've got a bunch of cash like Several Million dollars like those people, SURELY you'll just buy a 'race winning already' horse ? across a few years, I purchased approx 50 horses from NZ to race in Oz , back in the day. 100% of them already racing in NZ . 100% I think , won races for their new Australian owners. You could trial to buy .Excellent stuff. you knew straight away, if they could run or not. Never bought a yearling in my life. Just too risky . I'd say broke in roughly 100-150 yearlings at the stable, and only a small percentage won races. probably only half actually got to the races. there's still a lot of slow horses around. 🤣 -

An apprentice continued his hot form, a veteran handler had a big month and a few prominent jockeys struggled to fire in June. The Post analyses the jockeys and trainers who had a month to remember or one to forget, as well as the most outstanding victory and winning ride. Who’s hot? Fresh from his best month of the campaign with five wins in May, Ellis Wong Chi-wang went to another level in June with eight victories from just 35 rides – operating at a phenomenal strike rate of 22.86 per...View the full article
