    • It was a Soft 7 yesterday. I imagine they will be irrigating again in the next day or 2, or it will be concrete. Last summer they typically took it back to a H8 at the beginning of the week. Right way to do it imo.
    • Sorry to shatter you delusion but I'm not upset.  It is actually amusing reading the crap you write albeit now becoming repetitive. The gaps were always going to come.  They always do over 3200m and it is easier to push past a tiring horse.  Contrary to what some amateur punters think, such as yourself, a Jockey on a tiring horse will often move over for one full of running.  Of course the difference is it was 3200m NOT a sprint.  Also tiring horses will drift off the rail. Jamie rode the perfect patient race especially when you read the real hard luck stories from the other Jockey's where their charges clipped heels, didn't settle, got caught 3 wide etc.   Also another factor was when Land Legend surged to the lead and upper the tempo at the halfway point which made some gaps in the field and made a staying test. Jamie being the cool calm experienced Jockey she is didn't panic.  She got the horse to settle beautifully, took the shortest route home and pushed the go button at the right time. I wouldn't struggle but quite frankly educating you would do a disservice to the NZ Racing industry as they need your regular valuable monetary contribution.
    • 67 noms for Manawatu, 31 at a rough guess from Michael House, only 3 trained in the Northern region, no matter which way you look at it it's going to be a full House at Manawatu lol.

    • Entain files Defence to AUSTRAC proceedings Entain Australia (Entain Group Pty Ltd) today filed its Defence in response to AUSTRAC’s amended statement of claim in the Federal Court of Australia.https://bitofayarn.com Entain acknowledges there were certain deficiencies in its previous anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CTF) compliance program (Program) during the period December 2018 and August 2024. https://bitofayarn.com At the same time, Entain disputes a number of the allegations and interpretations made by AUSTRAC.  Entain also notes that over the last two years, it has undertaken a substantial transformation of its approach to compliance and strengthened its Program with: •    A tenfold increase in AML/CTF staffing; •    Tens of millions of dollars invested in new systems and technology; •    Closure of higher risk channels – including all cash payment channels, which previously accounted for less than 2% of deposits;  •    Closure of all 17 customer accounts in question – prior to legal proceedings, some as far back as 2020; •    New governance, controls, processes and oversight of risks; and,  •    A new leadership team committed to a compliance-first culture.https://bitofayarn.com Entain has fully cooperated with AUSTRAC and continues to engage constructively and in good faith. Andrew Vouris, CEO of Entain Australia & New Zealand, said: https://bitofayarn.com “We sincerely regret that our old program didn’t meet expectations. We followed expert advice at the time but, looking back, we recognise the old program missed the mark.  "We’ve acknowledged our shortcomings, taken responsibility, and spent the last two years learning from them and fixing them.  "Entain has fundamentally transformed its approach to compliance and now operates a market-leading program, underpinned by a compliance-first culture – to Win, But not at all costs.” Media Contacts:  Australia – Trenton Akers Trenton.Akers@entaingroup.com.au   +61 422 828 895 New Zealand – Matt Smith  matt.smith@entaingroup.co.nz   +64 27 228 5423 Entain plc (and Sodali & Co)   media@entaingroup.com entain@sodali.com    +44 (0) 20 7250 1446 27 October 2025
