The WHIP FARCE continues..a THRASHING Apprentice
Thomass replied to Thomass's topic in Galloping Chat
I'm sure being in a good stable he'd have learnt his lesson...Maybe peeling onions ...White line fever can get the best of them though...Trudy being the standout in the G 2... So the RIU need to take this on the chin and get the damn rules changed...in a number of ways 7 real days is not "suspensions must be meaningful" for this shocker.. what a crock... Thats why Godber said last week..." no nothing out of the ordinary this week Dezzy" ffs...he was embarrassed and tried to sweep it under the carpet -
Gee I was wrong again Bazza... They were winning 4M plus...off the rails... Who would have thunk with the rail being out so far out as well?? All of that sand down by the rail must have been like quick sand...not quick at all what a dichotomy If only they'd taken readings across the width, jocks would have known before the meeting...to get off the damn slow rail... ...oops, Punters would have known it wasn't a leaders bias on the rail more importantly All that new sand slitting created weird inconsistencies...

Globally, pokies rate higher than anything... ...but that doesn't make it right.... The Thoroughbred horse deserves the very best opportunity to display the sport in the best possible light to encourage widespread growth... ...pre and post race interviews...review shows....social media et el Not off to the next Dipton Dog race ASAP and "just get on patho punter" -

Yep... You'd also think "grossly unacceptable...punishing force" would draw more than a 7 real day suspension as well wouldn't you? I would have thought a calendar month rather than the ridiculous 'national days' b/s would have been the minimum... ...and a month spent at the petting Zoo...being kind to animals -
Actually I've been far too mellow in the old age.. When Bittar came on board I asked him if he was running a secret society when the previous NZTR had refused to provide info on even the most basic gear... winkers...on a G 2 winner...he felt that was an unfair statement nek Minute gear all over the place reported... Its inconceivable they provide a reading...to 4.5M... ...when they start the meeting running down the 6M and further strip... Nothing kills betting more than a lack of confidence in the 'official' information.. ..which was patently wrong... btw...do you go to bed reciting the 'revenue' song...hasn't your brain got tired of being a wanker by now?

Ahhhh...there's a fear bit of difference to 'dirt' and a heap of sand dropped on...higglety piggelty...and Sea King getting sand kicked in his face...dripping out of his seasoned battle hardened nostrils and eyes....

And sure enough it's made Media headlines https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/racing/104569349/apprentice-kiwi-jockey-kavish-chowdhoory-banned-for-excessive-whip-use -
Yea well let's hope you tell Big Red what was said... You'd think he'd be somewhat chastened after NP's meeting...hauled in front of Stipes and told to take cover..then gave up riding and out for 2 weeks suspension... Somerville must have been wrong about the "bashing" or needs a "hard ride" in S's words Dropped the whip when it needed a "bash" Obviously enjoyed the lack of a "bash"

So Shorn Treweak gets the big "valuable track information coming up next" from Tan on Saturday morning... Shorn seemed as confused as a blind dog caught in headlights "oh yea definitely different this meeting from the last...outside...that's where...and probably all over the track actually...yea across the width" ffs...nek minute they're winning on the rail...just like last meeting Just give us the entire width pen. Readings Shorn... ...and let Punters decide... ..after all it's their judgement and their MONEY FFS
-
Too true...it'd make one turn religious having to wait sooooo long for Justice ...and plain embarrassing for Godber to tell us the case "should be heard by late April" 6 weeks ago...ffs The disconnect between the JCA and RIU is hopeless...

If the princess wore a top like to the boudoir that she'd be on the exchange list quick smart... ...just as well she wears black lace 24/7... Tell me girls...what's It like having to smooch your man with that disgusting fungus hair on the moosh? ...poor Cammos misses have to navigate through that mass of bush...and last night's KFC special meal leftovers
-
Absolutely forgiving... The trouble is this stable has a history of talking their Apps up big time... That attitude seeps into the psyche and results in "he told me to give it a hiding" Lets hope Big Red's been informed of what Pinn told Trackside... ...at least he admitted to dropping the whip
-
Outstanding effort... ..but he had a pretty good grounding to be fair... The old mans knowledge would have been imprinted in the wee fella from the cradle...

New NZTR award recognises long service...yea na
Thomass replied to Thomass's topic in Galloping Chat
Settle boys and girls... The first award should go to the long suffering Kiwi punter...who keep stakeholders racing for ribbons... Theyre now being treated as 24/7 Patho Punters too.. ...wall to wall stuff and never a post race Thoroughbred interview to be seen... ..let alone a review show...which the other two dreadful codes are still receiving... WTF is that about? -
Now that's what you call a PRODUCTION!! The Yanks show biz nous gave this race what it needed...to present the Sport in the best possible light A Kiwi production would have been off to the next Dipton dog race soon after crossing the line...and a recorded interview 1/2 an hour later... How good is the brand new Triple Crown Trophy though?? And God played a massive part to...there was so much sucking up to God those God fearing peeps will all be going to paradise for sure..

Well mumbles 'Billy' didn't show a whole lot of humble and/or media savvy after winning on Somervill's neddy "Mr. Somerville .told me to give it a hiding" Yea Na..Big Red needs to give 'Billy' a real boot up the ass for that b/s talk.. While Somerville may have told him his horse needs a strong tide...I very much doubt whether he would have said "hiding" Pops was shocked...and ended the interview quick smart... They get media training at App school now... ..this interview should be played at all App. Schools come Monday... ...on what not to say on live telly..even if he was told to give it a "hiding" Its a bad look...especially coming from an App. Who needs a boot up the ass quick smart...
-
What a damn pitty you didn't leave it up to Baffert to decide if his neddy was OTT curious... ...I hope you didn't get "layed all day"...by now you'll be wanting a good rub over and a wee soak in the tub?
-
I Quoted the 'experts' Bazza... ..don't recall the rail being so far out at 15M...Youd know more about the bias out there by the old chippy stand Im picking between the 12 and 15 is where the shit load of sand was downloaded and left to nature... So taking a wild stab...as all Punters will be without the width readings... Itll have a leaders bias on the rail....best
-
Seriously curious you have no idea about punting here...only maidens last time you told us... Punters use this information for their various 'niches'... Some will find stuff uselful...others not Knowledege is power...the NZ punter is treated like a lonely mushroom...and it ain't magic Just heard the 'experts' on The Fart Call.. "Well Jason, is it going to be a leaders Track at 15M...or will it favour sweepers so far out...where's the best ground going to be?" ffs... If we're going down your root...you wouldn't waste time on publishing gear changes But we know you have absolutely no idea about the performance quotient of Blinkers...others do
-
Great idea...long service of 20 years or more and the reward is....wait for it.... A f in PLAQUE...I've got Plaque on the teeth...and I'm trying to get the Princess to lick the sheet off... ....haven't these AMATUERS got any idea about finding a SPONSOR ffs?? Even a f in Hundy..or a meal out at some sheet overpriced Viaduct cess pit?? Not even a bottle of piss to get plastered... Seriously...it's once a month not every week!! ..clueless http://www.nzracing.co.nz/News/24782/Service-award-launched.aspx

This is very basic stuff that Arstralian Punters get handed to them on a platter... ...our tracks are far worserer...worserer than a bog at the Bognor Regious track.. Change of tactics notes, exact pen. Readings, Vet operations... ...Any f'er who thinks Punters didn't need Wanganuis rail pen. Readings eats Monkfish
-
Yep anythings better than nothin! The Track Manager has to write 30 down anyway...easy to screenshot that and post it...Punters can do whatever they like with it...why hide it? Straight is the most important...at the moment every 100M theyre taken up the straight...just do that across the width It matters what barrier is drawn when the rails off...no doubt about that...or when the rail shows a better pen. Reading...on a leaders bias track especially

And a very good piece scribed by FORMPRO on this matter...but it's not the first case...far from it...Trudi's Group 2 effort in February a shining example of course... Was this the first case where the winner should have been relegated after getting a definite advantage with a blatant overuse of the whip? In race three at Avondale on Monday, Ego Princess was hit hard 28 times with the whip from the 300m to the 100m mark and two strides were taken without being whipped! The horse, Ego Princess, responded well and was able to pass three other horses around her where the riders had adhered to the rule of five strides or less with the whip and five without till the 100 metre mark. The second horse connections could have protested that the winner had clearly received an unfair advantage, but the rules as they are now, say that you can’t protest on those grounds. The rider, Kavish Chowdhoory, was given 12 days for blatantly breaking the rule. Is it time that connections can protest on the grounds that the other horse received an unfair advantage? This was just a $10,000 slog in the bog maiden, but it is going to happen in a Group race sooner rather than later. The perception will be that the winning connections and punters will have received an unfair advantage just like any other unfair advantage like drugs or interference. So why not a whip advantage? -
So we're told Wiremu...the new 'gun' on the block, is called 'Billy' by his boss and wants to be called such on the telly...which Sweenz did non stop yesterday.. Theres something very concerning about putting young Apps. on a pedestal like this boy has been.. Sharrock did this with Mick Walker and to be fair it went to his head...big time... It also happened with J Mack...and his bubble burst as well when he thought he was invincible.. He admitted as much when he said he'd been in a racing bubble and was too immature to handle the high pressure.. Pinn has been flying in the adrenalin fix as well by the looks...caught grinning like a Cheshire Cat behind the camera after getting beaten on an odds on Favorite recently...confidently predicted he's " gunna be the man"... ...but yesterday was hauled in before the Stewards and spoken to adivisedly, with Sharrock and the Riding master alongside, for getting too competitive and not taking cover... ...in the same race he gave up...pinged for failing to ride his mount out...now gone for 2 weeks Big Red should stop putting him on a pedestal this week then...avoid calling him 'Billy'...give him extra boxes to muck out and a good old boot up the ass...just like the old days He'll thank Big Red in 10 years time for it...when he gets offered a 10K bet by a Sydney punter.. ..he'll be saying "thanks but no thanks"

It appears you have all of the answers And what happened when NZRB invited you to help solve the puzzle?? You couldn't be pissed going to a meeting...niller Just let Messara have his turn...he'll know by now just how much the Racing Industry contributes and we'll go from there...
