Tokyo Tycoon another "bargain" buy Karaka Million winner by Te Akau just like On the Bubbles and what a thrill for the large group of owners. At the other end of the scale Espionage which i think was their top priced purchase at Karaka 2020 is still trying to win one. They seem to have a much better record with these reasonably priced horses.

WRC are their own worst enemy. I actually dont begrudge the Country clubs that have a gate charge but allow BYO booze and food but to charge $50 General admission on Cup Day and then probably $10 for a warm beer and the same for a cold pie is taking the piss.
-
Agree with lots of that but one of the main problem we have is that the Captain you mention of the Titanic has only ever driven little runabouts in the past and the waters are obviously way too deep and rough for him.
-
its 100% correct and the arrogant RIB have a lot to answer for.
-
doesnt read like he is leaving NZ ..yet. https://www.racingnews.co.nz/forsman-to-operate-victorian-stable/?fbclid=IwAR2duXJHoi9iOYBbHI3R8gi4wak7XF_rzFINc4ylu7VuA_bFl1GinRSuz9Y

Bit rough on Craig when the horses arent going good enough. MIscreant was especially terrible, well backed from a big stable under a ride the whole way but a bad last.

And on NZ Racing News Facebook today "Legendry" trainer Colin Jillings.

Has the RIB really changed? Paul Harris charged with Animal Cruelty
Peanut replied to Chief Stipe's topic in Galloping Chat
With a strike rate of 151 Harris should be charged with cruelty to owners. -
Agree Huey, The Love Racing "marketing" team should be sacked if thats the best they can come up with.
-
Yet when it comes to advertising the new appointment of new Board members this year the MC has the arrogance to say they are unlikely to make any changes at this time. If you want to talk about conflicts of interest look no further than the Chair of the MC especially when it relates to RACE and Awapuni.
-
I see Walkers strike rate has crept up over 6 - not bad but still a long way off tearaway leader Paul Harris on 127.
-
Not only are most runners from North Island stables the quality of both the CJC track and the club management are clearly not up to Group one standard. P.S South Island trained horses good enough to start would get all travel expenses paid.
-
Did he appoint himself for life? fall on your sword mate your use by date was last century.
-
And thats what will turn out the lights on NZ Racing. Not DCE ceasing business and going to lie on the beach at Waikiki.
-
agree. compare their NZ records and Richard's strike rate has always been under 6 usually under 5 and i bet Walker comes nowhere near his average stake money or group and listed winners this season.
-
And yet these two jockeys currently sit 7th and 8th on the premiership. What a sad indictment on the overall quality of riders when in days gone by the top ten would all be household names. This new boy Warren Kennedy looks to have the goods and hopefully Matt Cameron is back soon as at present the rider ranks have as much depth as a puddle.
-
Possibly because he is a record-breaking trainer who thinks he abides by a different set of rules. (His current strike rate of 106 is surely a world record?). How can retiring trainer Steve Tyler seriously say this ? All horses are now being trained by Paul Harris Racing, I am keeping a share in my whole team because I believe they will all improve by committed riders and Paul’s horsemanship.
-
Probably because there is better money on offer in the "novelty" races?
-
Dominique Dowding. Disaster.
-
100 % agree. Rodley comes across as a genuinely decent chap who knows his stuff. Why would he say no when they asked him to go to randwick and cover the Everest? They would have just sent someone else less deserved like some of the gravy train self serving junket chasing fkwits that have worked for the TAB in the past.

A son of champion mare Seachange ran about 300m last at the trials today.

And even less impressed when they read this self-indulgent crap on his website. Bet there were quite a few people in racing chasing money who he locked his "open-door" on. Dickhead. Don Ha is the CEO of RE/MAX New Zealand, and Director of RE/MAX Revolution and RE/MAX Projects. He is considered a world-leading real estate agent and influencer. RE/MAX is the globe’s largest and most successful real estate brand. He is also a Sales Trainer, Wealth Mentor and Founder of RE/MAX Revolution. During his tenure with RE/MAX Revolution he made the office number one in New Zealand for the franchise group and his special ‘Don Ha Project Marketing’ team was ranked number two in RE/MAX Global for value of sales in US dollars and number one by volume of sales for 2019. He was also inducted into the International RE/MAX Hall of Fame at a lavish event in Las Vegas in early 2020. Don is one of New Zealand’s leading property sales gurus with an amazing rags-to-riches story behind him beginning in war-torn Vietnam, whereas a young boy, he escaped war with his family and finally arrived in New Zealand as a refugee. He has personally sold over a billion dollars of real estate and brings abundant experience to every deal. He has mentored hundreds of investors to build wealth through property. One of his biggest achievements is designing and marketing the $80million plus Sunline Estate, the largest single level housing development in South Auckland. Although he is a very successful businessman, he has a level of compassion seldom seen and a genuine desire to mentor and change people’s lives as he forges ahead with making the RE/MAX brand a household name in New Zealand. He leads by example, and this has created a high level of trust and loyalty with his clients and his team who draw inspiration and motivation from his success. He has a complete open-door policy and makes time for anyone or any organisation to meet with him.

Yes poor old Ha Don with his $2m Zabeel x Sunline. At least he got some value from the brand - hope he used it to pay his training bills. One of his biggest achievements is designing and marketing the $80million plus Sunline Estate, the largest single level housing development in South Auckland.

Great leveller this game and strength in numbers isn't always the case. Imperatriz doesn't look like the same horse and maybe that first up win flattened her. La Crique is a freak.

Its going to be a long drive home.
