Highly legal...Brianless however is on a highway to hell.... Once the rainbow is painted on the gawd awful thick black HQ car park..with zero rose bushes within coohee.. The rainbows are going to be heading out to Dusty Church to do some tit for tatting.. ..hell hath no fury like a rainbow scorned

C'mon team...where's the pothativity?? HQ finally gets an Easter Saturday back.... Riverton has outstanding 'investment' ops... Just PM moi for your Riverton winners Who could ask for more??

Could be an EPIC idea this... Seen Ellerslie's brand new FUGLIEST BLACK TARSEAL carpark??...right in sight of the finish line in what used to be an incredible HQ vista?? Get Chloe and her painters out...RAINBOW it.... ...that gets the Destiny maniacs involved...Bishop Brainless in his designer white overalls nicely complimenting his spray on tan and face filler INSTANT publicity for a struggling racing media!! #callthecops

Yes it is..BUT I'm heavily believing there is no inspection process in place (especially after over the shoulder use ) for either welts or the use of the edge of the flap... ...in 20 years of the RIB there's NEVER been an inspection let alone a charge for welts And then there's HK...a cesspit of misery for some horses. Their whip abuse includes allowing the 'pull through' method from one side to the other as evidenced in the HK Derby 3rd placegetter, feet high up to get as much power as possble...and the stinging contact into the flank below the saddle cloth

This is hilariously hypocritical claptrap... Peters WANTS to control the narrative in the media ffs.. For you ignorant old fools...this DNA b/s started with a very minor member of the Maori Party who suggested Maori had "superior sporting DNA"...which is probably true when combined with Polynesians to be fair...just like a Kenyan athlete or African Americans with recognised fast twitch muscle fibres... Nutbar Waititi seized on this ...dropped the "SPORTING'...inserted it on his website...then taken down after the party realised what a bunch of shit it was... Peters in his drunken stupor ..went off his script... inserted "Nazis" at the last minute to attract World attention...which it did

It was a screen shot straight off the replay.. The Adjudicative Committee "The Wellington Steeplechase is a Prestige Jumping Race, and a pinnacle of the jumping calendar. It was observed that Mr Fannin employed the whip in a manner that exceeded shoulder height. Such a technique amplifies the force applied and is considered an unacceptable manner of whip use. In an Industry that places great emphasis on horse welfare, actions like these cannot be condoned. Penalties for whip use violations must serve as both a deterrent and a clear message that such behavior will not be tolerated. The Adjudicative Committee firmly believes that any penalties imposed, should emphasise the significance of protecting horse welfare and promoting responsible conduct." In this race the Veterinary was attending to a horse who was euthanised... I would've thought though that Stewards have the experience to adjudge 'welts' and/or take a photo without having the vet tell them "it hurt" The RIB wouldn't answer the question "are horses routinely inspected after jockeys are guilty of 'over the shoulder' strikes"

Peters spoke to the Herald "Asked whether it was appropriate to draw a comparison to the Holocaust, he said the Holocaust had stemmed from similar thinking and attacked the media for not calling out Waititi’s comments last year." So he did... Comparing the fucking Nazi's blonde hair blue eyed shangri f in la..to a minor Political party in NZ who misguidedly thought Maori DNA was superior..."on the sporting" field... ...is typical of Peter's mindless, thoughtless rhetoric designed to divide and rule Affirmative action in our Housing policy of the 60-80's spectacularly lifted another race out of abject poverty... WTF is wrong with destroying generational poverty caused by European banks denying Maori home loans before the 1960's?

Campbell was a very strong whip rider...just ask Warwick Robinson...recently retired stipe...he knew how to

And then Jockeys 'accidently on purpose' use the edge of the flap...making serious progress through the skin and into the muscle... ...this time Mike McNab...the entire straight he used the edge in this instance Rule "jockeys must NOT use the edge of the flap"

Please stop this incessant trolling As I said I'm too dumb and technically too thick to have the 'smarts' enough to do a Kate.. In factit appears one gets into deep shit if one does.. plus I despise deep fake and deep shit...ok dipshit?

I'm technically illiterate so #yeana It was on Weigh In and moi simply screen shot it... Here's another massive whip violation in last years Wellington Steeples...with WELTS...courtesy of Shaun Fannin.. Fined only for 'over the shoulder' I asked the RIB "do you routinely look for welts after observing hard over the shoulder strikes"? Answer #yeana In fact in this instance they said "the vet was too busy to look" I asked "are the stipes without cameras and cant decide for themselves if a welt is a welt"? FFS...look and weep

You maybe right? The British Racing Assoc. relented on their backhand only rule where this action enabled more strikes to the flank/ribs... Also women jockeys have shorter arms on average...watch Lisa Allpress..a classic flank striker... Craig Grylls is another ... However...what the RIB and NZTR are turning a blind eye to is the constant flicking the flank after a strike... Sam Spratt has perfected it so well under the new rules that her strike rate has improved markedly...ask Stephen Hunt

You're right about ONE thing...Winnie IS true to himself for HIMSELF A political slut hanging his dags on sound bite politics... But he got 'Chumbawunda'd' over his latest bite... "Chumbawamba wrote the song Tubthumping as a song of hope and positivity, so it seems entirely odd that the 'I get knocked down...' refrain is being used by New Zealand's Deputy Prime Minister Winston Peters as he barks his divisive, small-minded, bigoted policies during his recent speeches. I'd recommend reading Michael King's 'The Penguin History of NZ' Let's face facts about World history while were talking history though Heard of 'Generational poverty'? A good NZ example starts with the Flu epidemic of 1918/19 where Maori lived in squalor, mainly in Central Auckland, and suffered 7 times as many deaths as non Maori...such bad choices from them...they had the same chances as Europeans didn't they? Up to the 50's significantly less was invested in Maori housing initiatives than others...Europeans having superior DNA were treated much better...and fair enough.. From the 60's-80's Maori were granted access to mainstream state housing with 'TAILORED SCHEMES'...shock horror...special schemes?? So unfair on Europeans...who were previously 'special needs' Suddenly Maori home ownership sky rocketed..Nth Auckland 60%, Auckland 59% West Auckland 69% Thanks to Maori home loans that were 86% funded by the State...Banks didn't want to know Maori in those days..Maori were finally getting an even break.. Then the shit hit the fan from the 90's when National started selling off State homes...Maori home ownership nose dived by 36%...and private landlords dominated..resulting in insecurity of tenure Of course with this came the National Party telling it's loyal following "it's about personal responsibility"... where private enterprise flooded Sth Auckland with the cheapest liquor in NZ, open slather pokie dens on every corner and the highest proportion of fast food outlets per capita in NZ... Back to square one... So please read up on ACTUAL history rather than listening to Poo's bigoted sound bites in future...he's playing you like the fools you are... But he's a smoker and he'll be dead soon...just like yesterday in question time sleeping away

So two winning whip CHEATERS at Trentham...Sam Weatherley in the last..got five days Tegan Newman...$1200 fine... Both 60% over before the 100m mark...enabling progress when others were obeying the rules ok? Remember...whip v non whip analysis in Britain showed whipped horses run faster...who knew? And then there's the unnecessary and cruel practise of FLANK whipping...NZTR signed up to banning it...then reneged A constant abuser of flank whipping among many others..Joe Doyle pictured on Saturday Note the contact of the non padded polymer digging into the highly sensitive skin in that area

Listen up wigman...I've been here since it's inception and I'm staying...so last in fucks off When the MFR is a dead set certified nutbar...IT IS a racing matter...ok? In effect the thoroughbred industry is tarred by his behaviour and his private conversations at race meetings... He's a racist, sexist pig of epic proportions...I wonder if he repeated his racist joke yesterday to the Chinese Minister? "2 wongs don't make a white" #yeana Put hypocrite alongside as well

This is what the article now says on NZTR's website We decided to run Prince Alby yesterday instead of running over 1800m at Riccarton (this Saturday). The way the track has been up there is like concrete, Lightning Jack has taken almost six months to get over running there in the Coupland’s Mile (Gr.3, 1600m),” he said. This is what Kelvin said to Jess de Lautour before the 'big wigs' at Riccarton Park went nuts to NZTR "The pen. should be done INDEPENDENTLY up there...it's always a 5 reading...when in reality its a 2/3...it's a DISGRACE" Good on ya Kel..salt of the earth farmer type who doesn't hold back... Poor Jess was only telling us what Kel. said....good journo...but didn't tow the party line.. Naughty jess

One's judged by the company one keeps... The racing industry has to put up with having a freaken lunatic at the helm it seems.. Comparing ANY coalition Government of NZ with Nazi Germany and the holocaust is a fucking disgrace and whichever racing club 'invites' this psycopath to it's next meeting should be pilloried...but let's face it... ..some in the racing industry believe Trump is the saviour of the World...they live amongst us

Mmm, Peta...got beat up...

of course you aint lived until you've sung with Daryll...and 20 plus shots

My Favourite Horse racing song of all time...yours? Go...

Big Davo's stable are MASSIVE users of BO's!! The more gear the better is their modus..open your eyes

i see what you did there...OPEE?? Alors...have a look at this RIB hanging judgement on Jake Basher Bayliss...and tell me he didn't deserve to be DQ'd n consideration of the evidence, this breach is, in the opinion of the Adjudicative Committee, assessed as being at the extremely high end. Very few Riders, if any, have shown disregard for the Rule as was demonstrated by Mr Bayliss on this occasion. He submitted that he misjudged the 200 metre mark for the 100 metre mark. That is not plausible nor is it credible. The films clearly show that not only did he strike his mount 10 times, mainly between the 200 and 100 metre marks, but some of the strikes were also particularly forceful. Further, from the 100 metres he continued to strike his mount several times to the finish, which he is entitled to do. Mr Bayliss is, or should be aware, of the 100 metre marker, because it is clearly identified on the rail by red paint to the finish. Mr Bayliss was close to the running rail for the entire run up the straight. In addition, he had earlier, in race six, breached the same Whip Rule, for which he received a $500 fine, this should have ‘put him on notice’. Also, his previous three breaches of the Rule occurred on the same racetrack.

How to win the hearts and minds of new entrants to the industry ..calling the STARS of the show CHEATS yea that'll work Imagine breeding a new generation of thoroughbreds who want to be there...racing each other without being flank whipped 19 times by James Basher McDonald?

You're right...and no more so in Black type That's why NZTR thought they'd defeat whip cheats by making it mandatory to fine 50% of their fee Why not take the lot from them when the likes of Opee blatantly cheats to obtain G 1 BT for breeders? Who knows if major breeding establishments have made contact with jockeys and offered them life time breeding rights if they happen to cheat and get up on the line? FYI France galop introduced a 4 strike rule...and DQ at 9 strikes...while keeping the punting side of things... When Jake Basher Bayless came over last summer and proceeded to IGNORE the whip rule in the Auckland Cup..10 instead of 5...just beaten a snoz...he should've been DQ'd and breeders stripped of their BT rights
