with thanks

then, who has Hegemony over those said administrators? ps, remind me about the backgrounds of those you mention? isn't the brightest of them there because of the choosing of????

sigh, meaning?

comes across as rather nasty! bitter, gutless as well?

I watch a lot of MLB, the home team plays 81 home games, like the NFl, the use the most up-to-date digital cameras etc, now there are so many brilliant slow motion shots, often Action is instantly replayed back! Real Up Close!!!! I Know how a modern younger watching person is going to REACT!!! when they start to see a pattern of Wimp riding up close! A recent jumps race so said that sort of thing! It has happen in our lounge via the 55", young one jumps up and starts yelling Why are the Beating that Horse! all that v's, the older punter who is so more interest in seeing their horse fighting out the finish! just now asking Mrs: No to wimping, (why) the modern pro animal position. (Then, wow) But they should be able to do that Swissing you see the good riders doing!!! (showing them the wimp but not making Any contact!)

as the different acc at our house.... ps. I have some amusing stories about you know the odds, be them' and bonus's out there.. I think for 17 spent 134 in bonus and All when on a team that went all the way.. pps. I acc, now, Never gets offers!

as when "tickets are selling well" ok, what number are you going to allow on course? capped at? perhaps following up with "an, any truth that a 'tight5' had been behind the increase in tickets sales and plan a nice little earner scalping them! sigh, as ever, I live in hope! for a track that works! and that we get the privilege of actually then getting Proper Actual Footage of the Horses pre and post race! Gee, Imagine that! Prelims shot from a proper angel! riders assisting, Actual Professioonal coverage for the Punter! that sort of thing?

I live in hope... and willing to pray for the needed result!

There is also video footage posted, after time, of the race, which can offer insights into problems that happen with a race. Loveracing sight is friendly for some stuff!

This is a 'Indu$try', where the Winner with the most Wins, rather paradoxically perhaps, also is the greatest lo$er..

the praxis of 'core periphery model'.. Chch is for the South, but is also in the periphery to the primary core.. which of course is on the periphery of the likes of Mlb and Syd and into Asia,, CD is interesting, its seems as if things are spread around, no place quite being the core, all those district off course very becoming to the Waikato/Cambride/Mattamata core

it says races 1/4 here... https://www.tab.co.nz/promotions

you are welcome to bet on that sort of track...

wow... in a good year that would be for the year... mostly larger bets...

In some ways true, but in another it might be actually easy to get a win or place horse, I recon so! especially in the black type races as there is not the deep in the fields that there would be! I seem to be different than most when it comes to having a bet! give me a small field any day! a decent track would be nice as well! But gee, where @TAB For Everis 100% correct! make sure you are having some fun along the way! Respectfully said Knowing of the hard work being put in by so many in producing each horse on a race day! Extra hard if you are distant from the bright lights of the Metro tracks!

Speaking as a photographer! Trentham is the Best Track by a long way to work at because the sun comes from over ones shoulders and on a bright sunny day! Hence more 'important historical' shots have been taken there! Thankful for being able to be on course for some many of those races back 80/90's. Speaking as punter, all these changes etc stand for shit if we don't have a decent track to let the races play out on!

when people aren't taking shots at him (wow), others are saying this...

How did you get involved in the industry: Racing is bred into me. Family lore records a racing passion from the earliest days with one of our forebears, Hector McDonald, marrying a niece and befriending an elderly Chief Te Rauparaha reportedly accompanying him to the Otaki Maori Races. Dad was President of the Wellington Racing Club, Mum’s Dad Jack MacDonald held racing and punting such a priority that the red bound ‘Form Record’ substituted the prayer book for an hour’s study at mass (Incidentally his best horse HOT DROP was trained by Percy Burgess, grandfather of NZTR’s Mary). Other family members on the MacDonald side were administrators with the Ashhurst-Pohangina and Manawatu Racing Clubs. My Godfather Felix Campbell is father of Group 1 winning trainer Patrick and raced numerous horses with Dad. St Patrick’s College Silverstream may not see it as its greatest role but it has produced a plethora of racing men. Caned (amongst other punishments) for escaping the grounds to attend Trentham and, possibly not the best advertisement for respect for schooling, leaving a bursary exam to listen to dad’s horse Tarlton win and score a record collect on the communal schoolboy TAB account did nothing to dissuade the racing interest. Leaving school to work at what was then the New Zealand Racing Conference and on to the Canterbury Jockey Club. The Conference Wellington days involved a wonderful group of people whose only weekend ambition was to get in the car on Friday night or Saturday morning and head to the nearest racemeeting. Great race days of comradery, punting and the odd ale or two followed by obligatory after-matches at the local pubs created so many lifelong friendships cemented by a common love of horses and racing. If there was ever any doubt that reinforced racing as the only working life for me. Having to be on-course to watch BALMERINO, the GREY WAY/COPPER BELT clashes, THUN and OWHATA CHIEF vie for hurdle supremacy, LA MER, amongst so many others and to have to take your treble or jackpot was just great fun. That continued when moving to Canterbury and meeting many more outstanding people and friends, travelling to new racecourses and parts of the country and seeing so many more memorable horses. What are your favourite aspects of your role: Racing is just so much more than a job. It is about being involved and contributing to the tapestry of a wonderful sport. Playing a role in running a racecourse and race meetings which enable horses and people to add to that tapestry and create history is hugely satisfying. The range of emotions that you see in the birdcage before and after even the smallest of races is something I doubt you get in many jobs. I take pride in Riccarton Park Racecourse. As a custodian of a 165-year-old sports ground there is a need to ensure that whilst respecting the past it is improved and enhanced for the next 165. What advice would you give to someone wanting to get involved in racing: Don’t think you can please everyone. The very nature of racing sees the 100/1 shot beat the odds on at times. As such there will be extreme views at each end of the spectrum on any and almost all issues. If you can look yourself in the mirror and confidently say you have done your best and made the right decision for, and in the best interests of, the majority you won’t go far wrong.

one mate went to both, and said lots is being promised! will share more when I get to have a proper conversation with him!

it might be, all of the above! or none or the above, or some of the above! though, I think everything is rather in a state if fizzz, who does know what is actually happening? for what its worth! 'our house' has two accounts.. both make a profit! one gets offer$ the other doesn't! lol! guess which acc is in my name!

just another struggle kiwi place struggling to live in modern capitalism...

There perhaps is a need to go old school and do what often happen, the head stipe and another, could be the commentator as in Peter Kelly's day, they walk out onto the track by the winning post and kick the ground, mumble a bit and out came that days guesstimate.

out with the old, in with the modern race track fence... Very Nice, easy for a Adult to lean on and to watch the action infolding,,, very plasticky! also, out goes the birdcage hedge to reveal... by chance I had a interesting chat with people from the Riverton Club who are having to look at putting in something similar

he would be getting fatten up a bit if he lived in one of our paddocks! house motto for any quests: You Will Leave Heavier!

ouch.. 'mrs' No interest is paying to be on course... happy to be on course, for free.. and she actually much prefers days when there is no one on course, as Wingatui on sunday

it would make interesting reading, how many Marketers the different Clubs have gone through this century! Otago rc seems to go through them very quickly!
