  1. Giraffe comes to mind to too for some reason
  2. Wow Jan,Debbie,Gina,you guys still look awesome,I remember sitting in the Ascot Park Jockeys Room as a just 15 yr old,listening to you all,I rode in the hurdle race that day for Mr Hillis,it was my 2nd raceday ride ever, I'm pretty sure it was a Hens night coming up for......
  3. Sewage ponds next door!!!
  4. More "Kates" in the industry need to be listened to,rather than those clipboard holder/University scholars,....,the idea of Universal Turf/Track management ideas that apply to EVERY soil structure in every Racing Club in NZ......
  5. I used to have abit of hope/belief in your comments CHIEF STIPE,until your last comment about Kate,she is the only one who has ridden amongst us&against us,in my view Kate does a better job of unpaid training the apprentices as well, plus she is the only one willing to speak on camera......why do you not respect her knowledge&experience?
  6. Absolutely..............NZTR should ask itself why is Riverton a huge success..............
  7. So why are NZ Flat jockeys not allowed to ride with spurs?
  8. Ok,lets back track a few years,like back to FIRM,EASY,SOFT,HEAVY days,what is the general opinion on Trentham the other day,if we had to rate it using only those old school terms?
  9. Easier for a Steward to abandon the day,than deal with any H&S stuff, bet they get paid the same dollars for a short day as what they would for a full days racing.
  10. Any updates/pictures on the new grass that they sowed at the beginning of Autumn?
  11. I hope she bounces back with a win,,,,,,cos if she doesnt!!!!!
  12. These tv producers..love
  13. Please share this to,,,,,everywhere
  14. Riverton should be the outright winner ,if Waverley isn't in the mix. Can anyone name any other Club that HASN'T had major money spent on it,but continues to have an awesome raceday surface plus an awesome crowd? Their Easter 3 Day Meeting was a highlight of my childhood.
  15. Waverley should have been in the mix.
  16. Stella Splendida is the Zoustar Hey Bro Mo'Unga is the Savabeel Shanwah is the Too Darn Hot
  17. Do they(the jockeys) get compensated for abandonments-travel,lost riding fees etc
  18. Look after the grass roots guys , many of us don't have the horsepower to target major meetings anymore, so stakes spread across the board would be more beneficial to helping us survive, after all, we are the trainers &track riders that have propped up &supported the overseas market for a very long time,
