I've got to say that like the Australian Cricket Team (with convicted , penalised cheats, some now back BTW) these large groups/organisations are unfortunately going to have Bad Eggs amongst them , who do something wrong. You have to Weed them out. ..... A good thing if like Te Akau in the news , that something is exposed.!!! IMO shows they are trying to do Weeding. The good "DOCTOR" at Essendon a fine example as well. But collapse the whole organisation ??? nah. You have to 'weed out" the bad eggs , pay a fine or penalty, and keep on leading your field. e.g Waller Empire not gunna collapse because 'Moron" staff member gave a horse Ice. (2016 event)
-
The disqualified lists are Long and Extensive too. So you will be OUT if Charges serious enough. Yeah that WEIR thing was truly awful for the racing Industry. BOWMAN seemed protected on the track, near killed a jockey (did kill the horse) at Rosehill in winter. Got 6 weeks. I'd i've given him 2 years , ...... little bit protected perhaps. Everyone looking for an Edge, Waller got off, after investigations, so many horses ! , so much can go 'Wrong" seems impossible he could keep 'Tabs' on it all.
-
Well that's an easy answer, you have Te Akau , AllStars, Waller Inc, Weir, Godolphin Huge racing groups, outstanding results, Horses everywhere, Lots of staff , entertainment for everyone. !! BUT WAIT , they can fail , IF the Charge is serious enough . Goodbye Mr WEIR. PLENTY of small things go on and are dealt with in these organisations .SURELY no-one wants them to fail ?? Just investigate and sort it out like they did with Wallers, Purdons , etc (small players can appeal decisions too)
-
Yes a feed company took the rap for the 4 x 2013 WALLER positives. The 'Ice" guy ? I don't know , that's pretty funny heheh 'horse on Ice ' lol...... Morphine is an S8 Restricted Drug, must be kept on a register under lock and key. very hard (impossible) to get without a Doctor involvement.
-
Yes , this time of year last year ALLIGATOR BLOOD had a positive in the Magic millions Guineas . (that race is on tomorrow BTW , go Isotope for the QLDers !! to beat invading forces) Alligator Blood 'Got-at' apparently ?? How you would wonder. But seems to of lost dash now on different 'feed'.
-
What level of substance >>>> leading to what results to advantage ? So true Chief Contaminated feed, ? very easy to see that happening with all the scientists involved (esp BIG stables) Accidental contamination from staff (that take stuff themselves) ? very possible too. as some posters said. WALLER also had a positive in a horse for Methamphetememe Ice in 2016 . stoned Staff member dropped some of his personal use stuff in the feed. ? wow !!! good staff are EVERYTHING to a good stable... lol.
-
In 2013 Leading SydneyTrainer CHRIS WALLER had 4 (four) horses disqualified (2 were winners) from a 'contaminated' batch of feed. The 4 horses tested positive to IBUPROFEN , a non steroidal anti-inflammatory. Chris and a Dr Biffin and a feed company were developing a 'feed mix' to stop horses ' tieing up' apparently. Very lucky to escape sanction/ Disqualification IMO, as this is surely 'Trial and Error' feeding and the Error occurred. Other trainers wouldn't / mighten'd of been so 'Lucky?' that didn't have WINX in the barn.

-
Oh yes that is MAJESTIC MAN that is (hopefully) going to Victoria to WIN the Great Southern Star. One of the richest trots prizemoney in Australasia. Your Cambridge man J Dickie won it with' Speeding Spur' not that long ago. Stent won for NZ also.

CAMBRIDGE Round 3. Thursday night
Gammalite replied to Gammalite's topic in Harness Punting Selections
Cambridge Day is on Karrots, Davis, Roman, Ritchie, Gammalite and Brodie all in so Far. CHIEF please Chuck some tips in (as like myself you are into thoroughbreds so I'm a chance of beating your score ...lol ....the rest are kicking my butt so far lol, I need a confidence boost !!!) Karrots if possible , can you Post the 'Experts" tips. that you did the other 2 weeks of Cambridge ? There are NO EXPERTS in OZ hahaha. so can't see them tips here. Any BOAY posters can post tips and become an expert overnight !! com'on Galah give it a go.? -
Trojan horse ? I guess that means Full of bad guys? who want to plunder and kill that which is not theirs ? Better to keep them out then. JJFlash is just a flash in the pan (like all of us) , but does know some harness racing stuff though , why people want to get personal is a mystery ,but he does post elsewhere , does see the greatness of the Allstars efforts over the years. (a good thing) . BUT did attack Chief with shit, .... Fair enough Karrots >>>>> Goodbye JJ in that case.

Well done to Phil and Bev Williamson today , and son ? Brad 3rd for the trifecta in Race 4 at Southland today. ($124 in Qld too !) Icons of the sport in NZ , and they are going so well with Globe's horse Majestic Man too. Today ''Funky Monkey ', Bred and raced by the family Matriarch Bev herself !! got the chocolates . Well done Bev !!!!!!!!!! and congrats NZ on yet another fine harness racing family. Who says trotting is doomed ? with people like that. Good to goooo......
-
The girl driving on MAGIC SIGN would know for Sure and certain. Get someone to ask her. Often in a race the horse behind you is hitting your helmet hard, Sometimes had knees in the back and PLENTY of slobber and snot down the back of your colours from behind by the trailing horse !! part of the Fun !!! Check out race 3 at Albion Park yesterday. winning 79 year old driver , got 3 week suspension , talk about HITTING a WHEEL, could of killed poor Donohue . STEWARD GAMMALITE would of banned Stariha for life.
-
Well the way that horse propped when it galloped and wiped out the field (4 runners anyway) He is lucky to get away with a trial request, and not be barred. Was pretty dangerous.
-
hahaha yeah Trump tweets were great for a chuckle , like BOAY !! (poss less Forbury input which is not very funny) perhaps you should kiss and make-up with 'JJ Flash' and 'Happy Sunrise' (who distanced into an 'Unhappy Sunset' it seems lol) and they can 'chuckle on ' and we learn something new. lol.....and create interesting debate. Afterall , according to Forburyretarddriver , Brodie is a Spastic who can't read . I personally don't believe that for a second. .. Fake News possibly??? lol...
-
hahahehe yes quite a Cult following, like Phar Lap, also in trouble when going to Mexico.
-
Well the Don is $2.30 on Sportsbet in the first at Northern Southland coming up soon. The young horse proving to be Much More Popular than his namesake !!!! Will he show the same ability to conquer the world ? or lose the plot ?
-
Definitely stupid punters to back any non winners IMO. No Driver tells the stewards They hit a Wheel. Thats just saying you're guilty and risking penalty to yourself. Sometimes you're not even sure if you touched the wheel or not if wrestling with horse like Hurrell was. i.e could be 'light' brushing/ contact. Enough to scare your horse on occasion. The young lass who was driving MAGIC SIGN in front of Spitfire could tell them , but if not asked No Need to say anything , she did nothing wrong.
-
Brodie, you're sure worried about your old mate Spitfire. Your observation is actually poor of the moment he galloped. Blossom, Chief and myself (in detail) explained it earlier in this thread for you, when you asked what made it gallop. Don't forget, As the pace quickens a horses legs stretch 'further in front' of his head and body , than at a slower speed. Spitfires legs were in line with the inside wheel in front of him. I agree with Chief in that, this is a driving error, probably more than Spitfires fault.
-
That Ashburton trot had a row 5 wide of gallopers 300m out !! was very funny ! was like Ellerslie. Pete Mcmullen ( You don't have to debate with FORBURY about a Top driver there) just won now at Albion, easily on the horse he got the Suspension on , KINGOFTHESTARS . Stupid Punter Gammalite had settled for the $160 earlier and didn't follow on for the $4.50 divi here. talk about having winners shoved under your nose and missing out. blah... have a great evening !!
-
Well the winner there doesn't agree Brodie, Nor do people who like big odds (80-1 winner today) Nor does Gammalite, But I am used to it , as mostly Albion is 1 mile racing. Trainers wouldn't agree either. You can race a horse week to week with mile racing. Some of those 2400m races today at Ashburton would leave runners 'Flat" to say the least and performing poorly next time. Today I picked 1 out for a bet . BoomChuckaLucka with Pete McMullen back from the most crooked 3 week suspension I've ever seen in my life. KNEW he would be angry , first drive back. Straight to the front 1.55 mile , easy as you like R4 just a little while ago. $100 win , thank you very much Pete. !! lol
