15 commentsToday we have seen the only remaining truly independent racing industry publication "hang the bridle on the wall." The Informant has ceased to publish.
Why?
In my opinion the blame lies firmly at the feet of the NZRB. Over the next few days BOAY will be asking some very pertinent questions to those in charge.
For example:
How much is the NZRB funded Best Bets costing the industry? Does it make a profit? What is its circulation? 800? Or more? Does the Best Bets pay for its form feeds? Was The Informant given the same deal?
How much does the industry fund the NZ Racing Desk for its banal follow the corporate line journalism?
Why were the "manager's at the door" when Dennis Ryan was talking to Peter Early?
Where are the NZ TAB turnover figures?
The Informant may be gone for the moment but the industry must continue to ask the hard questions.

How about those fields for Sunday at Motukarara. Dive in Brodie there will be value everywhere. Can not see them pricing those fields accurately at all. -
Matt Ballesty's fault because he does not have any turf knowledge and is only interested in shutting down racing outside of Auckland/Waikato -

Firstly they load in two halves. 90 seconds would relate to any troublesome horse. Some may walk straight in within 5 seconds for example. -

They look great and will be a valuable asset. All the best to whoever runs the Rangiora jumpouts. These are a much needed training tool for Canterbury trainers, especially now that each horse is allotted just 90 seconds to load on raceday. -

A tomo is the rumour. But I guess it will be NZTR's fault and the usual sad sacks will bang on about it. The plus is the horse wasn't injured. -
Meatlug stumbling far left. Possibly a small sinkhole?
