'You have no idea who is in the Syndicate. You will also probably find that in the Syndicate Agreement/Contract that Mr Ellis and or Te Akau representatives have the say on racing and training matters. ' I do not need to know who is in the syndicate to know who pays !Do you dispute this? Clearly you have not perused the Syndication agreement and are...GUESSING....it is an irrelevant consideration anyway.

what about the bristling barman....he could throw his hood...in the ring.

Ahem...the people who are in the syndicate PAY the Bills. Mr Ellis may well be a Director ,but this appears to be a case where the committee are cardboard cutouts ,captive to a 'don't you know who I am'...moment.. as you appear to be.

Grasping at straws there CS!Bred the horse ,not the Synd manager!!Unless the manager and/or the jockey are deaf/mutes its hard to make a case for him being involved...at all.

Not an inspiring one,especially in a democratic ...country.

They should have a show on trackside....like 'Who will be America's next top....model'....could be a ratings...winner.

So the committee arrived at a decision WITHOUT being able to assess all relevant evidence.Very good.?

Wonderful jockey.A real talent.

Thomas said the stipes decision was the correct one =the opposite position of most.??

nothing to see here...move on..it's all just another...conspiracy theory...where is Nicky Hager???

'This topic was started by a lunatic espousing unfounded conspiracy theories' -bit harsh on All the Aces....aren't you??

so has this been expunged.?..'The Information indicated that the Protest had been instigated by Mr P Richards on behalf of the connections of BORDEAUX LE ROUGE. However, Mr Ellis the Principal of Te Akau Racing told the Committee that he did not wish to pursue the protest. At this juncture Mr Oatham advised the Committee that the Stipendiary Stewards would be the Informant and proceeded on that basis. '

the stewards report is crystal clear-protest initiated by TA trainer J.Richards,over ruled by TA boss David Ellis,stipes substituted as informant.Protest upheld,=nearly everyone wins a...prize.

No consistency in applying the 'rules'. ' Sakhee's Soldier has rounded off a spectacular Auckland Cup carnival for trainers Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman by winning the New Zealand Stakes. The much-improved four-year-old beat hot favourite Rising Romance by a nose, and then held onto it after a protest by Rising Romance's connections. Jockey Opie Bosson said Sakhee's Soldier pushed Rising Romance three or four horse lengths wide near the home turn, which given the nose margin was enough to cost his horse the race. But the stewards ruled that the interference was minimal and that Rising Romance had her chance to get past the winner in the final 350m but wasn't able to.

what was this 'specific purpose'? Earl Hagaman donated 100k to the Natz because he...'liked them'...believe it...or not!

yes Thomas ,try and ignore any past indescretions that are unfavourable to Natz supporters. The Natz catchphrase of 'Labour did it...too' is not in vogue now. As Ardern has said the proper process is being followed and it is not her job to make judgement on how other parties conduct their affairs. She had to remind oilslick Soimen that she refrained from comment on JLR's allegations.

Taking a line through Felaars form in Oz would have to agree.

Troy is a handy hoop.Even as an apprentice he showed some X factor.

well the story as it stands ,doesn't mention the pride they must have in having the fastest cows in Matamata...either.?

future looks pretty good to...me!

Almost a fairytale...without a wicked...witch or demons.

former top Sydney jockey Kevin Langby on riding winners...'put your horse in the first 1/2 dozen,angle for a clear run in the straight and go for your life.'

be afraid..very ..afraid..

just imagine Thomas if he took his tongue tie...off!?

yes the CC was a good guide this year!?
