Maybe Bernards salary for his last month or two is 'performance based'? hence the 'investigation'.........WAFJ........now if Foxton was an alternative all would be honkey dory, fuck all breakdowns, great surface and popular with the industry, the brains trust at the Taj are complicit in the 'road to ruin' mentality, no foresight, no intuition, no business acumen, the answers there, they just don't want to see it.......and that's a huge problem, not for them.....but for the industry.

During the past month trainers here in BNE/GC who are members of the TA have been asked for input on the Eagle Farm debacle and to vote on several motions. The TA have been very active in canvassing the BRC and RQ. There was a meeting at EF last week involving management and trainers, there will be further consultation before a final decision is made as to what happens, at the moment it's going to be remedial works [wont work] and if it fails a massive close down and a super fix.....[we live in hope] but at least the trainers are having a major say......if it goes to custard no one will nominate, the BRC will be the loser, and the owners........the Government will have to intervene eventually, NZ is a vastly different animal.

Ah, we have our share of abandonments here too Doomed, mid meeting also, BUT, the torrential rain we get here in QLD especially can leave so much surface water on the track it's deemed dangerous by the jocks, mainly......it doesn't happen en masse though but the Trentham scenario happens much too often, horses slipping? The suits will pass the parcel, no accountability, until there is the third world stigma still sticks.......unfortunately.

Nah can't race tomorrow, Bernards playing bowls.......or pocket billiards....

Touche!

Ever since he set foot in the country it's been a disaster, he leaves with his bank account loaded and the industry rooted.....don't let the door slam you on the arse Bernard, on second thoughts..........

WTF? How incompetent can you be? one race and it's all over rover, all those poor buggers that have travelled their horses hundreds of kilometres, hundreds of dollars, just unforgivable, did anyone think to gallop on the track at 6-30am? or has there been a torrential downpour?..........it goes from joke to choke, where's the midget Aussie, nah it's all the committee's fault ain't it?

You go boy! If the All Blacks had of had the mongrel in em you're showing they might have gone better on the Northern tour!!!! It's going to take heaps of mongrel to beat the woke joke tho, we can but try.

With you in spirit......good luck, I do hope the stormtroopers have loaded up with rubber bullets and not done an Alec Baldwin or they'll be trouble.

Happy meal?

His family have been allowed into QLD.......

Well, they're both thick....that's a given.

I think you're right, and wrong.......where you're wrong is, Ardern and Bloomfield aren't capable of organising a scam, they're clueless, dumb as, thick as two short planks, kangaroo's loose in the top paddock, sandwich short of a picnic, lift doesn't go to the top floor....and so on and so on........so who's pulling their strings, now thats the worry Brodie.....who?

They have just found Chris's body!!! God bless the little bloke, we send our love to Chris's family.

It's a sunny day here on the coast and there are still lots of people searching the waters and beaches north of Surfers for Chris. The sun might be out but it's not a fine day........the young fella is missed and missing, we live in hope, but fear the worst..........his family of course are not allowed into QLD, the support from the racing community is amazing, lets all say a prayer for Chris........

Agree, and what of the struggling trainer waiting in the dark for a 'competent' track rider? This just goes from bad to worse.

I'll bet quite a few horses will sleep easy in their beds tonight knowing Sam Wynne is contemplating bowing out.

Bugger.

Not innuendo, horse doping is as old as the hills, our next door neighbour was doing it 50 years ago, Ginner Hart, your probably far to young to remember, but here in Oz Richard Laming was stupid enough to get caught, maybe the policing by NZTR/RIU is so good anyone contemplating such is too damn scared???? NZ leads the racing world with transparency and integrity and pre race testing is so thorough and constant that it's not worth the risk, plus of course the huge prize money on offer, ......... The 'red hots' might be a different scenario, and you could email Archie and ask him why he's targeted Woodend.......he might be an insomniac that sits up til all hours thinking up stories, he seems to be more switched on to the trotters, is he being fed porkies by disenchanted standardbred folk? It's worth an ask.

Kaiser Wilhelm, Hitler, Richard Nixon and a few more proved that if you shout loud enough fools will follow. Millions died because of those fools, idiots and criminals, in the case of those I named coercion by stealth was their mantra, millions enlisted through national loyalty and millions though fear of being ostracised, then of course came conscription. So many Governments are now using the same mantra re Covid19, all the Premiers in Oz and Comrade Ardern in NZ, now with boosters needed and soon mandatory, the 'new' variant will bring and is bringing the suggestion the current vaccines wont protect the already double vaxed, so the Pharma's must be rubbing their hands with glee.

The Border Feds are probably overworked and over tired, you should know only 20% of contraband is ever detected, and as for the racing Feds, inept? you're being too kind, and if you doubt the veracity of EPO then Lance went to all that trouble for nought, oh and a bloke called Richard Laming thought it might do something eh?, a good lawyer named Tim McHenry got Robert Smerdon off an EPO or he'd have been a cooked goose, EPO is a turd used by turds, it's a killer, the red blood cell count goes through the roof, heart attacks, and one day [I Hope] it all hit's the fan and a lot of turds go to gaol. One day I'll tell you how it moves good horses to another level, promise, not quite yet though......

You are naive Chief, and I'm being polite, you just wouldn't know. You've spent too much time with the small bloke who specialises in sartorial fuck ups. EPO has been imported for yonks, you're just not close enough to know, and it does things to horses that it did to Lance.........and it kills, when cruel fuck wits try to make their horses run through brick walls....... You get a lot right, and I'm not saying Archie is 100% with the Woodend job, but where there's smoke there's fire, Ray Paulick proved that.

We should ask Lance. How the hell did he get away with it for so long? And we never did learn what was in the package that David Hayes received from the USA that was wrongfully delivered to him.........and of course we had the scandal at HRNSW all those years back when the Gleeson's were disqualified for life along with the swabbing steward and the senior steward who was tipping them off what horses were to be swabbed ,,,,,,and when........it's a long piece of string Curious, and IMO it's a synthetic now, so the metabolites will be vastly different to the early version.

Ah, he lived in NZ and married a Kiwi as well, but the locals have forgiven him.......

Dunno Chief, I do know Brenden has not been sued by the people he's outed before, and if you've been named you'd sue wouldn't you? I would, he's named some big fish here, and I'll give him his dues, he is not before the courts as far as I know and he's the only journalist with the balls to name names and chase them....there's so many sycophants posing as journos with no regard to the truth, only protecting their mates......there too!
