    • they are the questions gamma never really addresses. and this thread,like most in which we comment,are based around specific incidents or decision making. the subject of this topic,the becker incident i truly believe deserved a long suspension for c hacket and a reprimand for n delany. you can only judge on what happened and in this case i believe hacket showed a total disregard for the safety of the horses and drivers to her inside. . the horse fell over for a reason. You can't just ignore that and say,oh,they drive a lot of winners so no harm done. if i owned becker,i would be ropeable,more so at the stipes for their inaction,than the actual drivers concerned.drivers make mistakes,no one has an intent to knock anyone over,but when they do,they need to be held accountable.Incidents like that can sometimes be career ending for the horse. The stipes would have had the head on and i would guarantee it would have been even more blatantly obvious. I have been saying,for some time in posts on here,that there is an obvious lack of oversight and guidance by the stipes,as regards some of the junior drivers in the north island and that it will lead to driving that shouldn't happen occurring. so gamma,obviously when i see my predictions coming true,i'm going to point it out.  
    • Riverton Jan 1 2025, 9 races.........Jan 1 2026, 8 races....makes a difference. Total figures and average per race figures, need to be factored in, those total figures will be for everything.
    • Soz editing hopeless This load of old cobblers from Kelly as well though "Ms Myers submitted that, in the context of this being her first charge under the flank‑whip provision, there was no practical distinction between delivering one strike or four strikes to the flank, as she was unaware that her whip was making contact with that part of the horse. She argued that her lack of awareness meant the number of strikes should not be viewed as an aggravating factor on this occasion." Seriously, how long has she been riding horses?  And the RIB swallowed this garbage FFS!!
