  1. Wanting punters to have a safe and enjoyable time whilst wagering is anti - racing ... you've well and truly lost the plot @Chief Stipe!
  2. Why on earth would Levin bother upgrading their facilities to be ignored and misused by the governing body in this country? The latest attempt at their assets is a prime example of this. NZTR have made such a hash of the so called venue plans they have clubs unwilling to invest in the future due to this very scenario and look where that has got them, they are beyond hopeless - not to mention as the article says NZTR won't even listen or have a conversation about it.
  3. Probably wasn't a Grand Tour event @Wingman ? Those events really provide atmosphere ,sparkle and non stop vibes! ... ask @Chief Stipe
  4. Massively overpriced
  5. Why does any of this matter? its most likely Levin RC would like to race on their own home track but have been done the dirty on by NZTR . How much do Otaki pay to have their G1 at Ellerslie?
  6. Its not hard to impress you @Chief Stipe
  7. Sorry but we are nearing the point of waiting for it to cave in on itself. Rest assured ...I'll always have my paintbrush .
  8. This is what everyone should realise - “We're trying to work with them, but there's just no working with them,” said Hawkins, calling it “scary” that land could be "forcibly" confiscated in 2025. There is absolutely no working with them, their incompetence is only bettered by their arrogance.
  9. Several of us have our paint brushes at the ready , we await your call!
  10. Let's hope some of the effected clubs and it'll be more than just Levin can get together to mobilse against this outright theft!
  11. You've clearly never ever been anywhere near a racing club committee.
  12. Financial Statements are unlikely to tell the full story. I'd venture to say it was your homework @Freda did.
  13. I would say outside of those clubs who are in the racing mafia family most of it is dependent upon what enthusiasm still exisits there and NZTR playing fair with them , the later very unlikely.
  14. Agree on both.
  15. Perhaps at the beginning but certainly not in the past few years, some quality winners of the race Redzel, KYR, Nature Strip. In fact you could argue there hasn't been a poor winner of the race with Yes Yes Yes not really getting the chance to go on with it as stud beckoned , all the other winners good horses.
  16. No it shouldn't , but the quality of the field consistently indicates that it should.
  17. Prove it then, no stats. I just said there are no dogs on this planet with 4 legs , doesn't mean its a true statement.
  18. No you ignore stats, youre a very silly man @Chief Stipe
  19. Apparently you know all these you've read all the clubs financials , so you tell us?
  20. You're clueless @Chief Stipe are you suggesting the success of these sires is due to a breeders demand for an outcross?
  21. Your beloved 2yo racing is a prime example. Of the 2025 racing season 9 of 17 stakes races were won by Aus Sires. 2024 10 of the 17. Thats only a snapshot. Pretty clear to see the influence the Aus breed is having here.
  22. Don't beat about the bush , provide details.
  23. Who said the paint brush was unused ? I can't afford a new one. I'm right here and ready for when a "sayer" becomes a "doer" you just say the word.
  24. Name them, you're the one making assertions .
