  1. 4 horses sold to the SI last year out of R2R. It's time every single race in the country was moved to Ellerslie.
  2. None of this nonsense is necessary or as necessary as fixing the calendar & programming.
  3. “It was so uplifting and rewarding to have conversations with visitors and see them leave with an insight into the dedicated care our thoroughbreds receive, - Corporate Fluff!!!
  4. The week coincides with our friends across the Tasman. We really should just get an Australian governing body to run our sport.
  5. “Trust is built through experience and when an industry isn’t open people believe it has something to hide. No such thing as a lack of openness, more than likely a lack of interest is more appropriate.
  6. "local country stable" NZTR Circus been trying to get rid of this type of stable
  7. Yawn!! Stables at studs been doing it for years without giving it a branding.
  8. An easy target for the industry.
  9. Very doubtful he does, I see in his latest update he is out meeting stakeholders (kissing babies, shaking hands) he won't be listening to any of the grass roots stakeholders concerns nor will he be allowed to. Unfortunately it will be the same crowd who have us in the state of demise he will be following.
  10. Ridden more winners than Sweeney, not that means much. I prefer listening to her than Innes, each to their own.
  11. Correct on both fronts.
  12. I also thought the track played well, certainly better than the way tracks have been playing in all those abandonments.
  13. It's the little things !
  14. Can understand sprint distances but a 2100m race for a 2yo?
  15. and over 2100m in this case. The level of incompetence that comes out of NZTR is incredible!
  16. A race at Egmont on Friday. I thought 2yos were only allowed to max race 1600m ? How would one get a 2yo ready for such an event? Have I missed 2yo stating races? MDN 2YO&UP 2100m - $18,500
  17. Better utilization of existing facilities.
  18. I choose none , they should all keep going ,if the club folded the industry could utilize them. Why do you persist in wanting tracks closed?
  19. What were the costs to run these tracks? No one could ever give me an answer. The real reason was to sell them up ,absolutely cost the industry nothing or next to nothing to operate.
  20. Levin & I believe Stratford hold jumpouts, both those condemned by the establishment?
  21. Been saying it for years ,NZ industry in such a state every single track is needed. The Messara Report was/is a scam! Top it all off Peter's wants to sell up the clubs that aren't in the club. The industry will never learn.
  22. The issue here is , he is ill advised anf/or doesn't know what he is talking about. I believe a combination of both, which bodes very poorly for the future of the industry.
  23. Racing nepotism more than rife in NZ, of course ARC will win now they are racing again. They hardly have any comparison.
