Woops true! Same cut of the jib though! PS: First post was about poor fields at NP and why have two days two days apart. Anyway we all digress on BOAY!

As I said in reply in other thread Nelson will be a different kettle of fish. All Weather Track and fresh influx of Canterbury horses.

Actually I'd go as far as to say that a couple on the current NZRB/RITA/TAB NZ Board are damn right dodgy.

That's what I was eluding to!

Nelson will be different. Fresh influx of Canterbury horses and a roomy All Weather Track.

Are Harness recording this as rehoming?

What does "(hack)" mean in this context?

I think it was allowed in the 70's and early 80's.

Fill ya boots!

Let it go Mehe. It is a waste of energy and is obviously giving you ulcers. Don't you have anything better to post about? For example something on the Topic of this thread? Why don't you start a new one about this and I'll move these off topic posts there?

Mehe you are wasting your Anarchy time.

Why is that a problem? The Chief Stipe is the only person who has the power to approve membership, moderate and ban. Those privileges are used rarely and judiciously as the majority of BOAY'ERS will attest.

Incorrect. Read them you wrote them.

Incorrect.

Correct.

Seriously how many of our horses are even up to that class?

Do we actually need "these big feature days"? Or should it be "can we afford these big feature days"? Reefton doesn't dislike these big feature days what he dislikes is subsidising them. Given the comparative difference in assets between Ellerslie and Reefton and the difference in industry assistance over the years why can't Ellerslie support itself? Instead of relying on cross subsidisation from other parts of the industry? Nero fiddles while Rome burns - that's what springs to mind when I see a big feature day at Ellerslie. Meanwhile the lesser amongst us are being taxed more to fund Nero and his entourage. What's more our assets are in the process of being grabbed to keep funding the largesse rather than addressing the fundamental problems. Two $1 million races (Karaka Millions) may sound great but why does the industry need to fund half? Why not double the cost of the sweepstake entry instead of sucking money from elsewhere? Why do we need two tier's of stakes? If you halved our top Grp race stakes would the fields be any less in quality? Well you might say if they weren't that then more horses would go to Australia to race. I doubt it as the majority of our Grp horses aren't good enough to compete at Grp level in OZ.

Ulterior motive would be that he is missing his enforced sojourn from racecourses (banned) and wants back in. During my Channel X days Molloy was quite close with George. Formed some camaraderie during the sordid McAnulty affair. In terms of measuring the performance of the Board I would have to say it is up there with the best at being bad. They are essentially the same bunch that have driven the industry to its knees.

FFS I've explained to you and others why there are multiple usernames. For example Wandering Eyes is an account that auto scours the internet scraping news stories for the benefit of BOAY members. Suddenly you have a beef with something - god knows what it really was and then spit the dummy and start demanding stuff. Well quite frankly all I care about is providing a service and trying to keep it within the bounds of civility and sanity while trying to keep an eye on moderating any number of people who from time to time seem to lose the plot. Which leads to me losing the plot. I don't answer to you or any other poster. I'm the Owner Trainer Drive of this site. In many respects it is reflective of the racing industry.

Also a saline water walker as well. Did you use a penetrometer to select the right going relative to your desired work out?

Will be interesting to see the nominations for Wairarapa the next day!
