Such a poor poor decision . By the stewards it defies belief? . AHR website is so Embarassed they refuse to put the race back up again. Luckily it was there for an hour last night so I got to see what All the fuss was about. Is almost RIOTessly Funny they won't put up a video where No horse or driver was injured. (The reason they sometimes delete video replays) but a Bloke dropping his leg out of the Footrest ??? 🤣😂. the dastardly rascal. Stupid , stupid is . A Group 3 race video not put up because of the Poor decision by Stewards. One of the weirdest decisions ( and reactions too , to try and keep people in the dark ) completely baffling. -

By Adam Hamilton Auckland and Invercargill Cup winner Republican Party will chase the Group 1 Hunter Cup. Co-trainer Cran Dalgety confirmed the five-year-old would be on a flight to Melbourne on Wednesday for what will likely be a three-race Victorian campaign. Surprisingly, Dalgety said Republican Party would then return home rather than head to Sydney for a tilt at the Miracle Mile. “He’s earned a go at Melbourne. He’s taken that next step from a nice horse to one who will be competitive with the very best,” Dalgety said. “We’d love to have a go at the Ballarat Cup this week given it’s worth $100,000, but we just feel racing three days after he gets there isn’t the best thing for him. “So, we’ll wait the extra week and have our lead-up run in the Casey Classic and go onto the Hunter Cup the week after. “All going well, the Cranbourne Cup is worth $100,000 and it’s the week after (the Hunter Cup).” A winner of his last three races, Republican Party is a pint-sized star and Dalgety believes his stature was the main reason for not staying in Australia for the Miracle Mile. “We just feel, on that big track at the Menangle, the best horse could monster him a bit,” he said. “We’ll go home after Melbourne and set out sights on trying to get him a partner (slot) for the big Cambridge race.” Republican Party will add to the strong Kiwi flavour in the Hunter Cup with Tact McLeod already in Victoria and Don’t Stop Dreaming heading across, too. Tact McLeod, who ran second in last week’s Bendigo Cup, ruined his chance as a $2.10 favourite in last night’s Shepparton Cup when he galloped at the start. He recovered to run fifth. The race was won by NSW raider Kanena Provlima, who ran second in the Cup last year. It was a race of extreme controversy with Captain Hammerhead first across the line, but disqualified because stewards deemed trainer-driver David Moran “hocked” the horse, which is using a foot to contact the hind legs of the horse, in the closing stages. X X X Leap To Fame makes his anxiously awaited return to racing at Albion Park next Saturday night. Trainer-driver Grant Dixon was thrilled with the six-year-old’s sparkling Albion Park trial last Friday and also confirmed Leap To Fame would head to Victoria to defend his Group 1 Hunter Cup title at Melton on February 1. “It was a strong trial and he felt as though he could’ve gone much quicker,” Dixon said. “His heart rate was great after it, which shows his fitness. “With the (Albion Park) run under his belt this week, that might be all his needs to prime him for the Hunter Cup. “The way the travel works, he will be in Melbourne 10 days before the Hunter Cup, so there’s the option to give him a run down there the week before, but it’s in the plans at the moment. “We’ll finalise everything after he races this week.” Leap To Fame, a winner of 44 races and almost $3.25 million, hasn’t raced since a lingering throat infection sidelined him following a Menangle win on October 26. The setback forced him out of three of the sport’s biggest races, the Victoria and NZ Cups, along with a defence of his Inter Dominion crown in NSW last month. “Everything looks like that (setback) is behind him now, but it’s always in the back of your mind something could still be lingering, so this race will be important,” Dixon said. Last year, Leap To Fame won the Hunter Cup, Cranbourne Cup, Newcastle Mile and Miracle Mile in the space of five weeks and as part of a 13-race winning streak. Dixon said a replica program was on the cards again. “If we’re in Melbourne, it just makes sense to stay and do Cranbourne,” he said. “Then, it worked well to go to Newcastle last year to qualify him for the Miracle Mile. “There’s been some talk Newcastle may not be a (Miracle Mile) qualifier this year, but it still seems to be and that’s certainly our preferred pathway.” View the full article -
He has been back for a few weeks as he was here for the West Coast racing as well! Poor marketing by HRNZ? -

Grand Impact led all the way at Wyong on Saturday. Photo: bradleyphotos.com.au Talented Kiwi-bred galloper Grand Impact was back in the winner’s circle after an all-the-way victory at the Wyong standalone meeting on Saturday. Ridden by Winona Costin, Grand Impact had a relatively soft lead and kicked well off the bend to deny Coastwatch by three-quarters of a length, with Strait Acer third. Prepared by Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr, connections of Grand Impact were rewarded for their patience with the now five-year-old, having last saluted in the Group 3 Blue Sapphire Stakes (1200m) in October 2022. Grand Impact looked to be one of Melbourne’s better three-year-olds after he won his first three starts, including the Blue Sapphire prior to finishing 12th in the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes (1200m) behind In Secret. Preparing for a return the following autumn, Grand Impact was continually plagued by soreness and eventually an OCD (osteochondritis dissecans) in a shoulder was identified as the issue, where a lesion of cartilage flakes off. That resulted in Grand Impact having 16 months away from racing before a sub-par preparation last autumn. The decision was made to geld Grand Impact and solid performances have ensued before Saturday’s all-the-way win. “It was never in doubt,” stable representative Tim Suttie said. “She jumped cleanly, stacked them up and kicked on the bend. “Michael Kent said he was in great order so sent him up well. He’s flying.” Grand Impact was given the perfect run by Costin and carried the luxury weight of 52kgs. “He gave such a great kick,” Costin said. “I didn’t get stuck right into him. It was quite soft. “It was great to get a ride for Mick and Michael and a win, it was very important for me.” Horse racing news View the full article
