Thomass

oh just in case for the Knewmarkets of this world 2023 was 2 years ago, rules ok? Maybe RIB are using AI to generate this b/s?? And the TAB are paying RIB for this kind of b/s 'reporting'

She was THREE lengths off the lead at the 800M Punter's had the ABSOLUTE right to expect Grylls to kick up behind the leader to be handy on the turn... off a slow pace Pulling back would've made it even more impossible from 4/5 lengths behind the leader on the turn

So apart from having ZERO transparency wrt to investigating incompetent 'judges', out of aligned 'judge's' cameras and Sth island 'investigation' into an incompetent judge's placings They cant even do the basics "– 18 January 2023 – 4 days – Low level – 2 March 2023 – Otago – 5 days – Low level – Listed Race – 2 June 2023 – Otago 4 days – Low level – 27 July 2023 – Levin 5 days – Low level – Listed Race Mitigating factors to consider were Ms Hemi’s good record, despite this being her 4th breach in 12 months, the last of which was in July 2023, 4-5 months prior, 263 rides ago and her frank admission of the breach. A combined discount of 1 day is applied." How much do these blokes/blokess's receive to FAIL basic proffreading?? (SP!!!!) Then counting to 5 not 4!!

A TOTAL waste of industry funds As Lance O'Sullivan used to say " With higher weighted horses, I tried to keep them handy as big weights tended to anchor them down with the resultant lack of acceleration" #whathesaid

So SINHAMAN finally gets the win so corruptly taken from him and owner supremmo Archer Opened at 9's and creamed them at 5.5 over the longer distance with the BOff after over racing last time Ran a 0.8L in a G1 on the same course as a 3 yo When the incompetent 'judge' took the win and gave it to Wodger's horse...started 15's An absolute travesty STILL unresolved

Not only a farcical race but farcically run as well! So NZTR/ATR got together and 'arranged' this farce apparently If O needed the race so badly just arrange a trial/hard hit out just like the soft az racel it turned out to be Australian Stewards would've been all over this 'Gryllsy, why didn't you kick up at the 800M when you were 3 lengths directly behind the leader on a very soft pace FFS" Gryllsy 'I was told to just give her an easy un for a next up effort...after all I'm not going to f up the 'set up' in case I get the drag for the REAL race coming up" If NZTR/ATR can waste 65K precious prize money like this they deserve everything that's going to come to them when this largesse is over

I said STOTTY's NOT a fan of the suits and their deafness

The Mobil Man exactly the same in the 1st Fine and 5 days...4th needs to get 3rd place money off the winner

Stotty not a big fan of the suits and their deafness Like other talented riders who have come to New Zealand, Stott is well acquainted with racing’s judiciary system here, admitting he is not a fan of the way some of our rules are enforced. “Rules are rules and they are different in each country and I realise you have to abide by them. “But I think here not a lot of emphasis is placed on what the jockeys actually say in the room.” Stott copped that on Saturday when what looked like a minor careless riding charge when racing clear in the Telegraph cost him $4000 and a seven-day suspension. “I didn’t think it was worth that,” he says matter-of-factly. While that means he will miss a Trentham return trip on Saturday, he can ride at the Wellington Cup meeting the week after and, more importantly, the far more lucrative Karaka Millions on January 25." The owners (agin the rules) should sub him the 4k...especially as the 'new rule ok' should be costing them 50K!!

So we all know the economy has tanked under this atrocious Knat Gumment, thanks for nothing Nichola, don't come back But seriously, what did the connections of ORCHESTORAL do to convince HQ to run 3 horses against her? Couldn't Craig Baker get off his chuff and talk a few R 75's into running as well and stump up the cost to run for free plus a few bangers chucked in?? Anything other than a 4 horse PATHETIC field A pony scurry would've been far more entertaining...even a side saddle contest with Victorian era ladies, corsets attached for authenticity?? Just give Wodger the money now and avoid any more embarrassment

yes should've posted the vid nasty...thanks for that Note a head behind at the time forced back to 3/4L then came again to be a nose behind 2nd Just dock GRAIL SEEKER owners 50K ASAP

I'm sure I read it somewhere and if correct it's unfathomable isn't it? A multi national conglomerate noted for it's dodgy behaviour funding an 'Integrity' Unit You don't think Dean Shannon gave Dr. Eliot's Board a ring and said "we'll scratch your back (funding) and you can scratch ours thanks very much" Nek minute TAB announces the RIB have told us 'no more no deductions.. ...It's a serious integrity concern" Oh yea of course it is....hahahahaha

So confirmation from NAVAGATOR's jockey that he thought it cost the connections 50K Imagine being an owner, observing the interference, and being told 'that's racing" and losing 50k through a jockey's interference is ok At least give them the 4k fine Mr Goodwin maintained that Mr Stott should have straightened sooner than he did. He also said that NAVIGATOR ran third, and Mr Elliot had told Stewards he believed have would have run 2nd, if GRAIL SEEKER hadn’t moved in on him.

It certainly wouldn't be 95% of the more serious 'investors' ?? Australian markets are far more sophisticated than ours and it's hard to imagine a a horse defying that sort of drift these days. Circumstances like sweating up, birdcage accidents requiring a vet check at the start and, as previously mentioned, going back from a wide draw as opposed to it's normal pattern of on pace can have these sort of impacts on the market Recently Guerin remarked "you can no longer trust a drift on the NZ market" Didn't hear the entire reason but I think I heard algorithm's mentioned Would you still bet the 'value' drift if it was showing signs of behaving differently to normal i.e sweating up, change to it's normal racing pattern et el that you hadn't factored in before finding value?

"Like Thomass"?? lol It's the way you phrased it apart from anything else Now the 'bloods' are normal and trainers "just know it's going to run well"?? Like any horse in a race with 'normal' bloods...but your "injected" horse has that something a bit better?? As i say give me a blinkered up horse who a top trainer like Larny has trialled with rather than a previously sick horse 'injected' up

Too true, you win by default The other places were full of psycho...phantic thom ass lickers where I refused to be used the 'chief wallah' even reads personal/private messages there How rude is that?

Missed this missive Of course it was a general throw away line albeit with a great deal of substance The 'Dan O'Sullivan' of NZ ratings based form analysis Steph Hunt often talks about 'profiles' Part of his recent analysis was the 'profile' of 3 yo form and where it stands against inferior opposition, namely R 65's and lower That's the basis of 'form analysis' and also life Bart Cummings...you may have heard of him "I keep my horses in the weakest of company and myself in the best of company. It's the best recipe for success that I know."

Often a horse will shorten when it comes to the attention of punters that connections are serious about "going forward" this start A few months back Sweenz told trackside that "Berg told me it was his intention to lead with blinkers on today" This info is required to be notified in Australia but only those watching Trackside were privy it duly went to the front and bolted in

'The Centaur' has mentioned "injections" before The inference being it's full of fong He goes on to say "the trainer KNOWS it will perform better" really? After a virus Maybe it's trained the house down...just like Blinker applications as per Lance O'Sullivan saying his recent black type winner "trained the house down with blinkers on" Give me that any day over a horse in recovery mode

No, not how to fong them up to the eye balls Or lasix them up so they pee non stop for an hour "an old trainer Bob Baffert said if you put Blinkers on also add the shadow roll and vice versa so i took the tip and it looks as if it worked" Home SKIPPERS CANYON rolled going faster at the post than any time before the race An absolute shallocking of the feeble mid week opposition Derby aspirations?? maybe, but one thing's for sure all the Baffert wannabes will be out in force now It could be some trainers certain 'jen na sais quoi' if they want a touch of class added, not to mention a turbo jet up the back end

I've read about this 'injection' before What's in it and why is it performance enhancing given that veterinary science says it's not? Does the injectee know more about science and are they anti vax/anti fluoride?

Why did you delete my post re Sport's Psychologists for jockeys?

Certainly cost NAVIGATOR 2nd when carelessly allowing GRAIL SEEKER to drift in at the 100M Stott released of 4k from his @15k payday Under the previous rule would have been relegated behind NAVIGATOR with the undeserving SACRED SATONO winning...clearly ridiculous Fining Stott doesn't help the connections of NAVIGATOR though...losing 50K by a nose after dropping 3/4L back when checked then coming again If relegations are allowed when interfering one on one then surely this type of situation requires the connections of the interferee to compensate the horse interfered with? Dock GS's connections 50K obviously Taken to it's logical conclusion, look after the punters and promote NAVIGATOR to 2nd as well It's exactly the same as stewards assessing a one on one relegation

Post LADIES MAN winning, what did he mean when he said "if i could get my life sorted off track I may have got more G1's" Did something happen?? It begs the question, do modern day apprentice schools employ sport's psychologists to ensure young impressionable youth, often struggling with weight issues among other things, have the tools to cope? Billy Pinn mentioned the use a while ago and he appears to have sorted things somewhat Davy Ellis's guidance would surely have included professional use of such?

Never said I was I'm talking about Lichter obviously THE only independent racing media in NZ The rest are ALL in the pocket of the Commies at ENTAIN All editorial content manipulated and controlled by ENTAIN's politburo led by the ex on line Porn King Dean Shannon Now craving a' respectable' career of controlled 'gambling' where he can never lose after banning winners What a f'in disgrace
