It was just that you gave us the day and time so I thought you may have wanted us to turn up and applaud as you entered the auditorium? Car parking is very costly these day so maybe you could have offered a rebate to your big fan...curious?

Why on earth do you feel the need to write a f in novel every time you post? Theres also a rule that forbids touching anyone post race.... ...very simple to put cameras up in the JOCKEY Bogs...and hit the alarm as soon as a deposit is made...Stipes going over camera footage to investigate and weigh the deposit... ...or far easier to make a rule like touching...drumming it into them at App school...It then becomes a habit.... BTW Stipes Murrihy and Bailey were deadset agreeing with these refunds to Punters...of course they'd realise each case would be dealt with on each scenario...

Actually you know Shaun fairly well seeing as his partner is Sammy now Fred? Could you ask him who he was calling that day and how slackly is the rule policed by the Magoos at RIU? Also do they have random checks like they did with Kathy Ohara? I well remember a few years back Bridget Grylls getting on her phone to warn there was drug testing going on at Te Aroha..to her Jockey mate... ...suddenly that mate had tire and puncture problems and couldn't get to the course So you still think it's a basic right to warn others about drug testing?

So FORMPRO are all over this...good on them Neil's going to contact the hopeless RIU...then onto the equally pathetic NZTR... ...then after hearing it's all the TRACK MANAGER's fault.... ..when they had the last piss up at HQ...or was that the previous year?... ...they decided IGNORANCE FOR PUNTERS IS BLISS Anyway...Neil will find its like beating your head against a steel crampon...with the spike bits facing up Theres simply NO WAY the Track Managers will change their minds.... ..because they NEVER want to be embarrassed by their uneven watering UNLESS big Bernard...makes an executive decision...and decrees ALL new GOING STICK readings are revealed.... Just like they did at the Breeders Cup meeting this year WTF knew that TRANSPARENCY is king? Not our Track Manager f'ers that's for sure

Not sure what this means Sandboy... ..but did you not think SUPERA's rank failure deserved a mention in Oatham's pathetic report? Or don't you think either?

All the very best for this... ...but why did you leave the other essential details out..Where...and how much is the Parking?

In case the Whakachungas have caused early onset Alzheimer's Bazz... The TIPPING MASTERCLASS of the Decade...probably the Millenium Last 4 races tipped on here...BEFORE the off 2 Tris a Q and a winner...ALL IN ONE SELECTION 170,000-1 wasn't it? Yep, applied to the Guiness peeps... Merry Xmas Bogan Boy

Twisted bowel? They've pretty much got any feeding regimes for travelling horses sorted...unlucky ...laminitis? Could happen anytime but spring can be a problem...unlucky... Paddock accident? There's a lot of new building going on there and could 'excite' in certain instances...unlucky Waikato Stud have a fairly new treadmill which they get their Studs on...you can't beat that to keep them fit and take any spunk off them...maybe CS have one? Im betting Lindsey and Plumtree are going over the entire sad 'unluckys'

Onya ATA... I'll hold your end up while you're tripping the light fantastic in the dark alleyways of Da Nang at 3 am in the morning... ...remember to take a good all weather poncho to chuck over your head though... ...it can get real wet there... When I went the chick with the Purple hair was very helpful...although she had red hair when I knew her.... Enjoy

Superb in that race...as he was on Red River Rock... Weirdly similar how he gets up on the line...like CJW

Imagine how many strawberries he would have picked per hour.....a real loss to that Industry

Would an early one suit? If only she'd ordered the Vindaloo at Wellsford....not Waihi...she'd have had an emergency defecation situation earlier.... ...does that make sense? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oR9XbucqHwo

You don't think...period Theres no difference to a barrier attendant holding on too long and being a late scratching...which happens more often than a weigh in... As for process...she followed it.... IF there was a rule to re-weigh after toileting....she would have...but there isn't

Nayyyy Freddie....should have got at least a month... ...added on for failing to recognise who pays her bills.... THE PUNTER "I feel really sorry for the connections of the horse at Ruakaka as he was disquali ed and they lost their prize- money because of my mistake, so hopefully I will be able to make that up to them one day,”

What an uplifting story this is..nice piece on Weigh In a few weeks back too... ...and his parents are coming over from Japan for Xmas to watch their boy ride a winner...that's tear jerking ...a non racing strawberry picker to this...if some 'nobody' needed inspiration to make it this is it.. Asano had no association with horses when he left Japan and he spent his first year in Australia in Sydney on an international student visa. “I wanted to learn to speak English and travel overseas,” he said. “I didn’t like living in the city in Sydney so I shifted to Brisbane. I was working on a strawberry farm picking strawberries for a living and the owners had a few horses. They were into western style riding and some showjumping. “I loved the horses and decided I wanted to work with them so I went into Eagle Farm. I worked there for a while doing stable work and when I had to renew my visa I decided to come to New Zealand. “I got a job working for Mr (Gary) Vile and (the late) Cody Singer taught me to ride. Masa Tanaka was a big help to me, too. I rode trackwork with him and was always asking him for advice.” Asana furthered his experience working for Kevin Myers and that led to competing as an amateur rider two years ago before heading south and signing up as an apprentice with Carston.

And this mirrors the RIU's take on measuring Winter tracks... Whanganui gets penetrometered from the rail to the 4.5M mark... ..when they're all racing down the outside rail Thats how stupid they are... Doing the same gormless stuff because they can't think on their feet... ....no wonder Punters have buggered off

Of course not but it's part and parcel of the Industry... Punters don't go to the website to watch horses breakdown obviously.... But Mary is part of the 'Jolly Jolly no negative' narrative of modern day social racing media... ...they're all at it...back slapping ass spanking encouragement and not an ounce of critical analysis allowed... Mary... "Far easier to stand on the side-lines, flinging accusations based on historic experiences than perhaps speak with some of the 34,768 * participants in the thoroughbred industry and gauge the reality. Among that number are the vets, farriers, chiropractors, masseurs, feed merchants, stable staff and others whose every working moment is geared towards ensuring the horses in their care are happy and healthy. Our horses are bred to do what they do, just watch any group of foals in a paddock. They are also able to "tell" us when they don't want to race – witness the brilliant Australian sprinter Chautauqua who retired on his own terms. Rather than blindly swallowing the information provided by an Australian-based protest group, we would welcome those with a genuine interest in thoroughbreds and their welfare to come along to a New Zealand race meeting and witness first-hand how our horses are treated. We have nothing to hide." She forgets to mention the NZ Amatuer rider who said "it's a cheater and needed a good whipping" Or the endless trials Chautauqua went through before the owners reluctantly gave up... Merry hides a lot of things..it's her job... I pointed out to her how Jockey Parkes had whipped his mount 35 times...within the rules...she was oblivious to what was happening... And that's why she chooses to go down the path of accusing some websites of being ignorant.. ...when she's exactly that herself... ...back patting ass slapping Racing Industry employee

....30 in total H 10...great...a shit load of scratchings then....forecast..showers Started racing at 3 PM....ask yourself about the accuracy quotient in that wee scenario for late spring racing?? Sure enough the Jocks come back in and say "it's definitely a S7" F me...Stipes not wanting to look stupid say "na we'll call it a S8 to avoid blushing everywhere... Hey you guys....relly relly easy solution...too f. In obvious for the RIU clowns...still stuck in 1980 Mode... Take 5/6 readings up the straight rail slot a couple of hours before racing and give Punters a real good estimate, after consulting with the Track Manager, who sleeps with his Track and not his partner Its not even rocket science...which should suit the RIU...because they're thick az and don't give a monkeys #wakethefup

So they call themselves the 'INTEGRITY' Unit.. That obviously includes disseminating ACCURATE Track Ratings...i.e. Giving the Track a reading that has 'INTEGRITY' So the Mutts Track Manager rolls up at 6.30 am to do his Pen read

So in fighting back against the animal nutters Merry told us the Thoroughbred Industry "has nothing to hide" So what does she do? Hides a breakdown in the 3 Yo at HQ this week... While all of those with playback options...Sky, Vodafone TV et el...just keep on playing them back... The same goes for falls in Jumps racing... Maryanne Tweetsman...the PC Trackside producer...consults with NZTR to delete any judged 'serious' falls or deaths... While Sky subscribers simply play back the 'censored' tapes FFS...just let it go Maryanne and Merry...this Industry should stand by its racing record...warts and all...

So it's an hilarious headline....but not so funny for Punters ffs The 3rd time in 3 months a Jock weighs in LIGHT and Punters have to needlessly suffer a Huge loss... Punters Beaten up before she'd even legged on let alone left the birdcage or left the stalls! No chance right after Sammy took a 0.6kg relief stop...who the f knew it weighed that much? Im about to take one now to see how much effect the Vindaloo I had for lunch precipitates such a dumping...hold da phone No wonder Gen x...z....y....have buggered off to Sports betting...a Rugby player taking a dump is notifiable...and not penalised...just get on Seriously though...it's about time Racing's antiquated Rules took these situations into account... Sammy admitted to a 4 Hour drive with no pit stops...rushed to the weighin scales..then rushed to get rid of the morning porridge after weighing out...and not weighing in again...out Its dizzying stuff and Punters are reeling 3 months in a row...

Another one of your Gold classes...I bet you waited until he was about to pull them on... "Touch the silks worn by the likes of Frankie Dettori"

'Tis good you got a wee chuckle out of it then... Thatd be a first for over a decade wouldn't it?

Crikey...who doesn't like a good plan? "Improving" even...Weas...you there...Weas?? Come in Weas.. Aalaalune will contest the Gr.3 Lawnmaster Eulogy Stakes (1600m) at Awapuni on Saturday. Photo: Trish Dunell A switch in plans has led Group One performer Aalaalune (NZ) (Reliable Man) to target Saturday’s Gr.3 Lawnmaster Eulogy Stakes (1600m) at Awapuni to open up options at Ellerslie’s Christmas carnival. Trainers Graeme, Debbie and Bailey Rogerson changed tack from their original plan to start Aalaalune in Sunday’s Listed Hynds 3YO Salver (2100m) at Ellerslie after discussions with owners Lou Te Keeti and Val Gates. “We considered the Ellerslie race but sat down with Val and Lou, and we decided that if we went to 2100m now, we couldn’t really drop back in distance,” Graeme Rogerson said. “By going to the Eulogy, it means we can look at the Ladies Mile and the Royal Stakes at Ellerslie after Christmas.” Gr.2 Cal Isuzu Stakes (1600m) contender Contessa Vanessa (outside). Photo: Trish Dunell It’s the same programme the Rogersons set for Contessa Vanessa (NZ) (Bullbars) two years ago, that filly placing in the Eulogy before winning the Gr.2 Ladies Mile (1600m) at Ellerslie on Boxing Day and finishing second in the Gr.2 Royal Stakes (2000m) at Ellerslie six days later. Contessa Vanessa went on to win the Gr.3 Sunline Vase (2100m) at Ellerslie before finishing second in the Gr.1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m) at Trentham, the main goal this season for Reliable Man filly Aalaalune. Already Group One-placed in this year’s Sistema Stakes (1200m) at Ellerslie, Aalaalune finally broke out of maiden company with a scintillating four-length win at Te Rapa last start. “She’s gone to another level since then too,” Rogerson said. “Have a look at her sectionals and what time she can run. Debbie is just so happy with her. She’s a very good horse that’s still learning. She’s still growing into herself. “But she’s got that ability and hopefully we’ll see that shine through on Saturday. She’ll be better as she gets over further (distance) but she’s still sharp enough to race well this weekend. She’ll be very competitive.” Aalaalune heads the TAB market for the Eulogy at $2.80, ahead of Belle Plaisir (NZ) (Proisir) at $4 and Showbeel(NZ) (Savabeel) at $4.20.
