How does one quantify? Jockey/trainer feedback from knowing the individual . . times . . .dropping the whip and observing the undoubted joy the horse showed when bounding away with gay abandon??

So the adjudicative boffins were OUTRAGED . . . Rarely does a Rider strike their mount so many times in a race. On that basis, the Adjudicative Committee has assessed the 12 strikes as placing Mr Hailey at the high end of culpability. In addition, it is of concern that Mr Hailey breached this Rule at the Auckland Meeting 7 days ago and he does not appear to have learnt any lessons from that breach. Also, his mount, on this occasion, won the race. For these combined factors, there must be an uplift applied to the 5 day suspension starting point. Would Hailey have been so brazen in his cheating if a DQ option was actioned? Ask yourself

Yes, it was tongue firmly in the nasal cavity>>> and that's why you added a laughing emogi😂 confirming such>>> Alor >>> I have seen studies that show @ 10% improvement on average>>> >>> and quelle surprise >>> I add 10% to my investment stake when indulging >>> you?

Onya Kevvy. . . I got on at 10's after HE'S PLATINIUM was surprisingly bet in. . . That's the general thrust of the thread though. . . that Blinkers took over and she was loving galloping for the pure love of it. . . or 'hooning" as Sammy Spratt says

It was concerning their whip rulesfullstopwhich dont allow 'jockeys' to take hands off the reins Take a look at the last Arc and their4 max strikes to see the futurefullstopabsolute class

You were the one who said "it scares the shyte out of a horse"!! Me loves BLINKERS..as you know As an old time stud master said.. "Thomas young ladfullstoptodays babies don't run in mobs muchfullstophence the need for blinkers" What he said

Oh yea...the dots were sort of an infinite clause... Dont strips pull back the highly sensitive nasal cavities and could be considered to "scare the shyte out of" when applied??

It was Blake Shinn on a horse that dead heated...and he was well over the allowance so there couldn't be too much arguing that he had to go.. When Matt Cameron won the G1 on LICKETYSPLIT his attitude in the room was appalling.. When asked about his record he said "it's amazing" What bald faced flippancy when G1 Black Type has it's INTEGRITY obliterated with downright CHEATING #integritynzstyle

Open your kanohi for a change... Obviously your heros at Te Akau dont listen to your nonsense... They throw EVERY bit of gear imaginable on... Blinkers, Visors, TT's...

Ace Lawson-Carroll on BELLA LUCE...goes for the whip at the 300M and promptly drops it... BLINKERS FIRST TIME strategy takes over and it simply bolts to the lead and wins by 3 easing down... A seriously good reason why some horse's love running and winning without being whipped... Take a look at the Amateur races this season ...WITHOUT the whip behind the saddle...and look into the future

So apprentice jockey HAILEY aboard BILLY LINCOLN throws out the rule book and decides winning at all costs will only give him a piddling 7 days off... 12 strikes, if you please, before the 100M when 5's allowed.. The problem NZTR fails to recognise ...is where restrictions are in place... There MUST be repercussions in order to protect the INTEGRITY of a race outcome.. ESPECIALLY Black type races... Matthew Cameron in the G1 Sistema last year...4 consec strikes...a break...then 3 consec. again When ONE's allowed...now that's CHEATING Which Galop France recognised by reducing strikes to 4 overall and DQ's at 9 We need the same ASAP

Thought you said you didn't delete ANYTHING??

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
