  1. If that restriction had been in place when I was younger I would have missed seeing some really good horses! Royal Cadenza Heidseick Fury's Order Watallan Princess Mellay Also some good horses in supporting races like the mighty Show Gate and Grey Way!
  2. Is this actually legal? R18 POLICY (NZ CUP DAY ONLY): Please note that an R18 policy applies on NZ Cup Day. This includes Trainers staff. An exception applies to Owners who may wish to bring their children to the races and Trainers who have people aged less than 18 working for them on the day. It is necessary to pre-register the fact that you will have minors with you on NZ Cup Day. The necessary wristband, which MUST be worn on the day, can then be provided. Details required are name/age/gender/guardian or Trainer/guardian cell phone/member (or car park reference if applicable).

  4. My apologies you are BOTH equally wrong unless you can provide proof. However based on literally hundreds of research papers that I have read it is a very high probability that they had comorbidities such as hypertension, very high BMI etc.
  5. Because it is 1Mb file with no file extension! FFS I do have some responsibility to BOAY members to prevent them downloading a dodgy file that you can't actually open!
  6. You don't know Mehe. You haven't provided any proof that they didn't.
  7. No he didn't say they had he said they ALL had underlying conditions.
  8. Correct. Those that have died have died because their hearts and or lungs have given up. Covid-19 may have precipitated the cause but isn't the cause.
  9. No but you only post to have a go at Brodie. Now what I object to in this instance has nothing to do with Brodie but the fact that you are stating as fact something that you have no idea about. Nor can you provide proof of what you have said. Now your misinformation may be the flavour of the month but that doesn't mean it's true!
  10. Rule Number(s): 869(3)(b)Following the running of Race 9, an Information was filed by Stipendiary Steward Mr P Williams, against Junior Driver Miss S O’Reilly, alleging that “S O’Reilly (Spanna) drove carelessly passing the 150 metres when shifting outwards checking CHAMPAGNEANDWINE.” Miss O’Reilly confirmed that she understood ...

  11. Rule Number(s): Rule 642(1)Following the running of Race No 5, the Powersafe Electrical 1200 metres, an Information was filed Instigating a Protest pursuant to Rule 642(1).

  12. Rule Number(s): 638(1)(d)This charge arises from the running of Race 5, the Powersafe Electrical 1200 metres, Senior Stipendiary Steward, Mr Williamson filed an Information pursuant to Rule 638(1)(d) alleging the rider of LOOKSEASY (Mr Danis), allowed his mount to shift out from the 300 metres when not sufficiently clear of ...

  13. Mehe - they may have been working but "healthy" is a subjective term. You have no idea about pre-existing health conditions, medication they may have been on (e.g. hypertension medication), family history and so on and so on. People don't die of Covid-19 they die from an underlying condition. For example my mother died in her late 50's - she got a bad case of the flu and 18 months later her heart gave out. Did she die of the flu? Or did she die of coronary heart disease? Given her family history of coronary problems and the fact that she was a prolific smoker most of her loss I'd say she didn't die of the flu.
  14. Forget it Mehe. I've quickly re-read about 5 articles and none of them talk about their overall health.
  15. It's not actually the title said it was from the NZ Herald! What is the title of the article?
  16. I've deleted that attachment Mehe because it is a file that has not extension and is large. Who would know where it came from. Try again but post a link.
  17. You post it. You must have it at your finger tips since you are so sure of it.
  18. I've split the Covid-19 debate into another Topic hoping that this Topic on the NZ Trotting Cup stays on subject. I also think that the Christchurch Covid-19 situation and possible impact on Cup week should be debated.
  19. The SAFE person prattling on about it on the news now blames the whip! I say don't budge an inch otherwise enjoy a future eating sprouts, drinking green tea (no milk), no international travel and gazing at the moon praying for the climate to change.
  20. How do YOU know? I think you'll find Dr Mehe you are wrong.
  21. Surprisingly only 12 fatalities in 20 years yet they can have 40 horses in the field.
  22. Geez if only Verry Elleegant had been a bit closer and got a run earlier. She flew home! Fastest last 600m sectional. Definitely got the two miles.
  23. Has anyone else noticed that there doesn't seem to be any Trackside presenters on course at Ellerslie today? It appears that they are operating from the studio at Te Rapa. Is it really cost cutting or convenient for those Waikato people? Have you noticed that anyone interviewed at Ellerslie is holding the microphone and has a headset on? I.e. there is only a cameraman from Trackside?
  24. He's on fire today! Third winner at Wingatui! Perhaps he should be tested?
  25. I've narrowed it down to 5 and have left the favourite out AND my favourite horse VE. I just don't get why all the money is rushing into Tiger Moth. Coming from an Irish winter surely he must be feeling the 30 degrees in Melbourne today!
