    • The Retired Racehorse Project's Aftercare Industry Month will return in February. The virtual conference is presented by Thoroughbred Education and Research Foundation and will take place throughout the month. Four webinar sessions will feature panelists representing the various branches of the aftercare industry, and will delve into a range of topics that pertain to everyone that works with Thoroughbreds transitioning to careers beyond racing. Virtual attendees may now register for either the entire conference, or individual sessions a la carte. A conference pass for all four sessions is $10 and an individual session pass is $5. All sessions will be recorded and available to attendees within 48 hours of each session. For more information on the panelists, click here. The post RRP Aftercare Conference Returns in February appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

    • Fancy calling the great sport in NZ mediocre. Never before have the horses gone so fast , and races run for money than ever before with MANY great incentives like Slot races and that. The horsepeople some of the most experienced and Respected on the planet.  Alas the Aussies have plundered them past 3 years because of the AMAZING NZ racing put on by the Amazing HRNZ.   No ones perfect Brodster. But one should appreciate the efforts of the people involved in the industry as much as criticise them.  Rules and regulations are in place for a Reason. Stake money is allocated at certain rates for a reason (that is unfortunately beyond your understanding) The ratings system for horses is applied For a reason.  They've been formed over 100 years. The NZ harness community and it's racing and it's participants are World Class already. Some of the greatest horsemen in the world (and horses) are from NewZealand and are that because of the great conditions that were supplied by the clubs and HRNZ to give them that opportunity. Your criticism doesn't improve anything 'Jack shit' to be honest. 😂  Chief doesn't even bother writing to you now. you've killed the sport.  just hangs shit on heaps of kiwis doing their jobs. Not everyone does there job the same as the next person.  SOMETIMES you just have to Accept the Decision that is made by Stipes , or by a driver, or by a bookie , or why they have mile racing (there's the obvious answer to that you just refuse to understand)  or why they have Betting limits (which is actually so obvious, it slaps everyone in the face like a wet fish ) except you old mate. under the rock .lol 😉🍋😁
    • with this rain, and those field sizes! =  v difficult! 
    • You might well be correct. My point is it's really too early to say. I'd prefer to wait and see the WBBR ratings at the end of the season before arriving at any conclusions about the races' quality. Field sizes don't determine that.
