  1. If you move then you can't hear the DJ, even I know that!
  2. That of course depends on the course and where you sit.
  3. and a club with that level of enthusiasm and racing IQ is allowed to hold the NZ triple crown.
  4. Great point, its what I find most fascinating about the young hip PR & marketers in the racing game, they are going to attract new racegoers to the races for everything but the races themselves!
  5. So basically they could go to a decent pub TAB for same experience.
  6. I have been thinking the same thing, can't understand how he gets a pass mark when the likes of Sweeney & Rodley are continuously dragged through the mud and they at least have some experience and knowledge.
  7. Make breeders & Syndicators rich that is it right there!
  8. Clown show in no position to close all of those. M Report has done next to nothing positive for the NZracing scene.
  9. If they really had motivation to save jumps racing they would have setup one of the unused venues as a focal point for the sport, somewhere that could have given the sport an identity and a home as such. I think the sport has lost all its identity with the changes that have happened over the past few years and it looks like it is put wherever they can fit it. Most of those venues being good winter spots it would have made sense. However you won't get any innovation, thinking outside the box or empathy from any of the lot running the sport so that was never going to happen.
  10. It's working , but you have to give it time.
  11. I'll certainly be watching Hastings, but if you can send me some tips I'll tune in.
  12. You can't put a price on all those expensive yearlings being sold!
  13. Maybe time for another Ruakaka meeting CS, perhaps an extra meeting at Ruakaka , keep racing fans on the edges on their seats!
  14. Incredible how common sense they are across the ditch.
  15. No point in doing so. CS would just make something up about the moon & grass on the day making the horse a kaimanawa pony. You have to let him work out things for himself, self discovery can be very illuminating!
  16. Give the kid 6 months with a month off for good behaviour at "CS Ruakaka Satellite racing venue!"
  17. That's about 10% of how a bloodstock market works, go to the sales and find out. You still haven't found out about the pony race yet , very poor form CS.
  18. Silliest thing you've written in a while CS , bought a few at auction before have you.
  19. If its slow and you paid big $$ for it , it was over valued . Don't get me started on the BS of Bloodstock auctions.
  20. Why would they , they don't want you at their party spoiling the celebrations. They want your idols filling half the field and Go racing & whoever else is silly enough to pay stupid $$ for hyped up bloodstock at the sales there , I'm not sure why this hasn't become apparent to most in the industry.
  21. They have no interest in grass roots ,if you're grass roots get what you can out of it over the next few years , after that you will be gone. As CS has pointed out it isn't sustainable, but they don't care they have very little interest or empathy for the industry.
  22. So true , as far as NZTR are concerned racing in NZ didn't start till today with the Taupo races.
  23. Also not to be taken seriously at all, absolutely clueless and makes CS look cooperative.
  24. and moved to a track they can't get right after spending millions on it. I've said it before the industry is run by clowns, but also the end goals is to only have a few tracks left.
