Brodie and any other posters that have little on today,Goggle a site called Rumble and search Dr Michael Yeadon and Dr Ryan Cole,in my view it makes compulsory reading regarding covid. The site rumble was created due to You Tube and alot of other sites TAKING DOWN ANY OF THERE OPINIONS.

What i will say on this matter is,I never had a fall at Reefton,but did have several at Rangoria in the 25 years i rode. I rode in a race when Paul Goslin was killed at Greymouth, but this had nothing to do with the track, a horse ahead of him broke down and came back on to him, both the horse and rider did several somersaults ending in a tragic accident. Holitika was a hard track to ride, as it was the only track that went the reverse way and had some tricky start points, I remember one day when the late Ray Hewison ended up on a car bonnet going out of the straight, when the horse he was riding failed to take the turn out of the straight. The old couple who's car it was ,never even moved, must have been real Coasters

Yes i agree,re Kevin Payne,the guy is passionate about racing. I may be wrong but was it Broomhall that gave him the push?

The members of the JCA who made this manifestly incorrect decision, should be SACKED,this is just a wrong decision and clearly shows how incompetent both RIU and JCA are

But they were, so who is at wrong? The punters who did the form under the false readings given by race control

Sorry it was at Ashburton

Have a read to see how far we have reached in decline. I thought Thomas would be all over this.It is about how punters were told incorrectly what the track readings were. Just more crap from this outfit

Join the the dots.S McKee trained Consensus for him and isn't he in laws with SLB2.0

Yes and the last time i spoke to her was a year ago and whist she had improved,she still wasn't allowed a drivers licence, due to ongoing seizures. They shouldn't have raced that day,but the steward in charge that day,i believe was S Ching. who retired from that role,but he wasn't lost to the industry,he become a member of the JCA. If you read the report,from memory it says"if NZTR continue race at Rangoria and any person injured or killed in a race incident,due to the track,manslaughter would be the charge.

Are you fu##in serious?I should send an email and ask for the amount of successful convictions he has had during his tenure.The upside is the RIU/JCA must come to the realisation that gravy train,has run out of gravy.

I just cannot believe the RIU need 92 people to make it function and maintain the Integrity of Racing and if you look at their staff employees, they have 2 more Stewards TBA,seriously? As anyone heard of Basil Payn{betting analyst} or any reports he has done for the RIU,His employment must cease forthwith,that will be a start to prune this overladen wage tree. Why do we need M Goober as the Head of the RIU,we have the head of Integrity, the head of Thoroughbred Stewards,the head of Harness Stewards,just make one of these the overall Head. I truly hope the submissions before the Government now, have a submission lodged to disband this top heavy organisation and start again,as it is abundantly clear it cannot operate in it"s current form with the crisis we face at the moment. I do feel for the head of RITA,as in my view if he can turn the Racing Industry around,he should run the country,but with no pokie funding in the short term,how can this organisation continue?.

It doesn't appear to be the case,as Karen Zimmerman just got made redundant from Tiley Racing,

I have a 2yo pacer in work with a NI trainer{ not fair to name him} as he doesn't do the job. Can anyone tell me what a blacksmith charges to shoe a Harness horse once a month. The reason i asked as we are charged a few cents under $190,now i have had many gallopers and the dearest account was $160,both include GST. There may be a reason,but they both have 4 legs and i would say Harness would be easier to shoe than a Throughbred. Thanks in advance

This is another case of how incompetent the RIU is. I have spoken to several riders and they say it is completely untrue that riders didn't call out, which is what Goober said they didn't call out. To my way of thinking punters were screwed again when horses weren't removed and vet checked , as the hole field charged the gates when the starter called our Watch The Gates then recoiled backwards and then he hit the button again. Would we have this wet ticket approach into this incident, if Innes had been badly injured and Work Safe had been called in.? If people don't remember how badly a horse can be hurt when they hit the gates,cast your mine back to a similar incident when One Baker Street did exactly this also at this course.Her injuries included total blindness,multiple head injuries and days later she was put down,so not to unload the field and push the button a split second later is beyond belief . I tuned into Pete Earlys show and when Goober was asked a question on the incident,What came out of mouth just showed me his lack of leadership in his role as the Head of the RIU

Now that Ken Rutherford has gone and Butch Castles is steering the ship it will not be rudderless.The worse CEO on record,fact. An aside issue, i listened to Michael Dore today on Trackside radio and he was asked if he had made any recommendations about the upgrade of the new betting platform,he answered that he made 3 and all 3 were ignored,just shows that a guy with years of experience on the in and outs of the TAB was given the one finger salute.

Wrong,the reason the margin was a head was the fact the Little D was doing her best to keep the horse going straight. No doubt Taroni did move out when looking at the big screen but that was within 20m of the finish line and the 2nd had been hard ridden prior to this and was not taking any ground off the winner. The main rule to adhere to here is ,would have the 2nd horse beaten the winner,I say no and that is why in my opinion this was the wrong decision.

Dead right,i have calls from Australia,saying this could not happen,but it did and only morons like Thomass who will not give as a clue as to his expertise on matters regarding interference/relegation's on racing matters,continues to come up with the same result that Ray Charles would agree with,but he does does have an excuse,but Thomass must have the same impairment.

Farcical decision would have to be an under statement,just highlights how bad NZ Racing has become,simply embarrassing.

He suffered a stress fracture to his pelvis,

Grey Way for me,51 wins and 13 different riders to have won on him

To put of balance in to this.I was at the races yesterday and overheard the discussion between the parties.I noticed the horse was vetted pre and post race with no issues,i had a good look at the horse and in my option the horse looked in great condition and looked like a happy horse after the race.I spoke to the trainer and i can tell you he has genuine love for his horse and went on to say the last thing he would want would be for something to go wrong with him on raceday,he further added,even though the horse is a natural at jumping,he couldn't allow himself to be entered for a jumping race in case he fell in a race.He added that he just wanted to finish on his terms not officialdom terms,so he has accepted the decision and i can tell you this horse will be given the retirement he deserves and will be an asset for the young horses he will help educate.

Gobber is a total F###wit,ask him about the construction of the Addington stables,then ask why he was gone after 6 months in Australia? TOTAL EMBARRASSMENT,TO THE industry

Kick in the head by a horse

Can Peter ask M Goober on Wednesday if J Oatham is now based in Christchurch? I have been informed that he is and the reason is to be with his daughter, who has recently given birth. This is very noble, but who is paying for his Airfares and associated cost to be based in Christchurch when he does the majority of his work in the Northern area. If the RIU is covering this cost, i believe that if he chooses to be based in Christchurch,then he should be covering his own costs. Thanks in advance

What this means is that Nigel can go both the Police and the RIU for costs,which will include loss of earnings,damage to his reputation and legal costs.
