  1. You could take an all up?
  2. What rule is that? They are required to be ridden in front of the stand though the stipes can exempt that from memory.
  3. Are they there to bury the dead, or maybe test if they can get the drainage water to run below the water table level?
  4. How else would they get them? Illegally? I did check some out a couple of weeks ago for a possible bet but there was no pricing and the races came up as abandoned before they were run.
  5. I take it you mean the breeding industry?
  6. Don't know what in the rules allows for that. It's based on riding days isn't it?
  7. Sorry but I can't be bothered corresponding with them any more.
  8. Yep. Same photo showing SYB in front.
  9. The noseband to the eyes has nothing to do with it. The other horse's nostril is over the line when PI's is just on it.
  10. Looked pretty clear to me.
  11. Yes. It's a photo of the finish. Not the actual photo finish photo so you can't tell anything from that.
  12. I know but where is the line?
  13. I don't see the line in that photo?
  14. to me it seems a bit like Burger King contracting out their pricing to McDonalds
  15. Isn't that part of the problem. The system generated odds are being generated by competitors for the same punter losses? Fail to see how that can work.
  16. Why don't they do that? This is when they could get away with putting up a 128% market. No competition at all.
  17. Not a great excuse when fields were out last Thursday.
  18. Went to have a bet at Otaki on Monday. No prices. They miss out again.
  19. A bowl? Sounds like a bucket and I don't think the govt will fill it up again.
  20. Was having a few bets at Gulftream this morning. Thought I'd check their prices and give them a shot. Got this: RACE ABANDONED - NO NZ BETTING Makes me think they must really want it and a few more grand of turnover goes off shore.
  21. What might be worse is it could be both Freda and that wouldn't surprise me. I'm not going to turn trackside on for the first time in a decade to try and capture it, but if anyone has it and can send it to me or post it here, I'll follow it up. As CS suggests, if they are referring to net revenue, that's at least a billion $s of turnover going off shore on NZ racing isn't it that they are claiming?
  22. You think their claims are meant to be not taken literally by the general public? They are a mile away from anything recently published by Treasury, the DIA or any peer reviewed publications. Maybe they have more recent authoratative data to support their claims but I think they are required to reference that.
