    • That is of no use if your sole purpose is protesting the closure of Greyhound Racing. As a board member & if you want a chance on overturning their decision, your complete focus needs to be on fixing this.     2020/2021 Major 2+ 1.9 per 1000.   2021/2022 Major 2+ 2.2 per 1000.   2022/2023 Major 2+ 2.2 per 1000.   2023/2024 Major 2+ 2.1 per 1000.   Current 2024/2025 Major 2+ 4.1 per 1000 (as far as GRNZ has reported on).   GRNZ shouldn't have been devastated by the announcement, they should have expected it.   I started screaming early warnings about the Southland track in August, but GRNZ already knew about it, right?  
    • Anyone off to Trentham today....probably not the best date for this Group 1 race and now the rain / weather turned against too. But as many of our posters seem to support the lower North Island racing and/or South Island racing I hope sopmeone goes.....its $550,000 stake ! Disappointed no South Island horses in any of the 3 x big races ,but in particular the Telegraph wich is unusual. The Stewards in November had a capacity field and several Southern horses have featured previously. Show Gate , Loader ,Fritz , Final Touch ,Enzos Lad [ x 2], Flying View ,Ma Reine...any more ? Blue Blood ? Ahhhh the memories.....  
    • In yesterday's edition of Value Sires for 2025, Chris McGrath profiled the stallions standing between $20,000 and $29,999, awarding the gold medal to Darley's Hard Spun (read more here). Here, we asked the breeders to hand out their top picks for this category. Carrie Brogden Gold: Hard Spun (Danzig x Turkish Tryst, by Turkoman), Darley, $25,000 My top value sire in this bracket is Hard Spun. Even though he doesn't always throw the most commercial physical horses, if you choose your mare wisely, you can get a sales horse that is also a top racehorse which is the holy grail of commercial breeding. Ranked 20th on the General Sires List, his numbers compared to his fee make him the best value of a stallion standing in Kentucky in this range. Silver: Authentic (Into Mischief x Flawless, by Mr. Greeley), Spendthrift Farm, $25,000 My silver medal goes to Authentic. Finishing out seventh on the first-crop sires list and having only broken his maiden in one start himself as a 2-year-old, Authentic is stellar value. His progeny should relish two turns and excel as they mature and the distances get longer. He was well supported all through his first and bubble years at stud. He throws a very stretchy, correct horse and had 24 first crop 2-year-old winners. Bronze: Upstart (Flatter x Party Silks, by Touch Gold), Airdrie Stud, $25,000 With two three figure sized crops in the pipeline this stallion is poised for a big comeback after suffering through his small bubble crops. Already the sire of the physically stunning freshman, Zandon, Upstart throws a big walking, leggy strong horse. If the results from his first-crop replicate with the bigger books and better quality mares, he will become a sire back on fire once they hit the track. John Greathouse, III Gold: Hard Spun (Danzig x Turkish Tryst, by Turkoman), Darley, $25,000 Hard Spun has sired 15 Grade I winners over his career. I don't think there is another stallion available at $25,000 that has done that. He's been consistent year in and year out, getting tough and hard-knocking racehorses. For my money, I think that's the best value you can find at stud. Silver: Girvin (Tale of Ekati x Catch the Moon, by Malibu Moon), Airdrie Stud, $25,000 Girvin is a horse that could really explode over the next couple of years. His quality of mares has gone way up since moving to Kentucky and he's bred over 300 mares the last two years. He's got a Grade I winner in his first crop. There is a lot to like here and great value at $25,000. Bronze: Army Mule (Friesan Fire x Crafty Toast, by Crafty Prospector), Hill 'n' Dale Farm, $20,000 Army Mule is another horse that I think could be very sneaky over the next couple years. He has also bred over 350 mares the last two years, and the quality has increased as well. He's proven he can produce racehorses with a Grade I winner already, and he's capable of getting you a quality sales horse. At $20,000, I think he's incredible value.
