  1. if it wasn't for the fact that you're a total shithead...I'd have given you a love heart and invited you over I have shocking before/after piks of just how pathetic this years 'guide' into the right hole was c/f last year To expect midgets, going at a fast clip with a gap dead set ahead of them rather than a sharp left, is like expecting a MAGA dickhead to cotton the f on
  2. There's this "Snapshots of TV Replays alledgedly depicting breaches of the whip rules will be allowed only at BOAY's administrator's discretion. The minimum threshold for publication is the picture must be accompanied by details of the date, race meeting, race number and horse number/name. This is to avoid manipulation of snapshots to support the posters argument (crusade?) which has occurred previously on BOAY. If you don't follow this process then a 3 step process of moderation will begin. Note BOAY has the loosest membership and moderation policy in NZ Racing e.g. you are not banned here because your opinion is different to the owners....thanks" This Chief is utter BULLSHIT I want to share before/after piks of the Trentham Steeplechase 'safety set up' from last year to this years bollocks YOU yes YOU, didn't have the grace to even allow moi me to get to FIRST base...it was STRAIGHT to "3 step process" time...like an old girlfriend said "first you must start at the bottom and work your way up the steps"... do what she said thanks
  3. Take my personal restrictions off and treat me like the others or I'm gonnnnne
  4. Take the restrictions off that you've imposed on me and I'll tell you! FFS, I can't even dislike your posts anymore let alone submit welt piks for your perusal before you allow them...which you won't It's a blatant disregard for the freedom of free speech
  5. Oh yea of course...this happened AGAIN as well "The inside camera was not correctly aligned throughout today’s race meeting. The result of all races was judged off the outside camera which is located on a permanent mount inside the Judge’s box. Stewards concerns regarding the inside camera not being properly aligned were raised with Club officials." WTF?? The same thing that's occurred 3/4 times in the last few months including Boxing Day when a Black Type race finishlynx was flashed up to show the inside camera mis-aligned?? An episode of M Mouse wouldn't be this madcap
  6. Can confirm I had a windaloo that night after indeed backing Joshua....felt bad afterwards for not only John Galvin getting beaten by cheating but also the bidet that couldn't keep up
  7. So this is the MIDDLEKHAN/ MUSCOVADO fiasco where BP was interviewing Johnny Bell, who was then dragged away mid interview to be replaced by poor old Ray Gavin for the 'winning interview'? And Sammy McNab didn't to do his first interview fresh off the horse? Don't tell me Mr. Craig's STILL involved after the DEBACLE last year at the same venue?? FFS https://loveracing.nz/RaceInfo/53391/7/Race-Detail.aspx How could anyone with 20/20 vision, their own faculties, and the 'extra' safe guards that ATR said "we have in place" now for this judge... NOT GET IT RIGHT??
  8. We had a discussion about this previously i think when I posted on another site under Integrity101 My understanding was Daniel took the raw data literally and made the point small time differences (where the study may have used " not significantly" in a different context) can translate into winning margins...1/2L = @ 0.1sec et el Just an aside ,when the RIB are invited by Stewards to increase fines/days suspension for winning they clearly have no idea about Dan's thinking...in the recent instance of Satherely cheating while winning...RIB's Gavin Jones said more or less 'a $50 increase in fine when winning then but we dont believe the nose victory had anything to do with the extra strike' In fact ex Head of Auckland CIB Gav got it wrong, claimed his claim of 1 extra strike was a typo when it was 2...changed the report after I alerted them but didn't increase the extra $50 or show the fact the margin was 0.1 L...of course 2 extra strikes won the race as evidenced by the sectionals
  9. Daniel O'Sullivan's his name https://betsmart.racing/ Dont be lazy...whip him an email yourself...but dont leave any welts
  10. BIG HEART on that one The only way to post more nasty piks like JKB's was attaching PAST attachments which is what i did But no doubt he'll be working on taking that away as well #megalomaniac
  11. So Neil Davis has given up "Just a note that using the PDF formlines for analysing the form is a waste of time. There are so many errors in them, that I was going to note them but it was taking too much time, especially the jumping races." totally agree...noticed one on Saturday that was 3 wide without cover at its last start... Entain's take "Trailed" They spend so much money on extra talking heads on Trackside then letting the basics go like this is stupidity and ultimately false economy
  12. Oh golly! Missed that missive... Wondered why my ability to post attachments has been TAKEN away altogether and also my want to like certain posts! BIG GROWLY FACE on Chief Stipe...it's like he's an Ayatollah or something
  13. Do whips improve performance? "The received wisdom is that whipping a horse makes it more likely to win. However, a landmark study published in 2011 showed increased whipping does not significantly affect a horse’s speed at the finishing line. This reflects the reality that, as they finish a race, most horses are losing speed because they are fatigued. The comparison study mentioned above also found no difference in finishing times between whipping-free and conventional races." As before, the doyen of race analysis in Australia Dan O'Sullivan analysed this "significantly" and showed that very small margins in time can translate to far bigger margins in distance than imagined I agreed with his expert finding that indeed "using the whip increases the chance of running faster"
  14. I suspect John Oatham is behind the "ignore this rule" command Afterall he said the 'notification to change race tactics' was too difficult here even though it works in Australia He's too exhausted travelling the whole country from venue to venue to know where the hell reality is pointed One of THE greatest wastes of spending in RIB's tight budget
  15. I showed stipes this one of Shaun Fannin leaving welt marks in the Wellington Steeples...the head of RIB at the time said "the vet was too busy with other things at the time" like this one of JKB
