They get the same for those as premer and iconic days elsewhere.

Why should they pay that back? They get the same subsidies as available to the rest of the industry If there's a problem, it's the basis for that which is unrelated to performance, especially wagering revenue performance.

I note - Children are at almost zero risk of death from covid-19 and so the risk-benefit in this group is severely questionable

As an owner, the fact that I am not allowed on course at Tauherenikau but am at Hastings would probably be a big factor in that decision as well.

That's right. Anyone can race there and the extra funds come from ATR's and the 2 clubs' own revenue activities.

What is Raceform?

Just noticed a couple of trotting races in between the Korean fare. Geraldine. Track looked awesome. Didn't that used to be a good and pretty popular galloping venue? Maybe could also be recommissioned to take the pressure of Riccarton?

I was going to say that if you wanted a hypothetical great kiwi mare match race, then that would have to be it. Showgate - Sunlne @ 1 mile. I'd be fair scratching my head trying to price a market for that.

Are you joking? Calling that proposition a match race?

And in Australia for whomever claimed rates had sky-rocketed. Despite early modelling at the outset of the pandemic predicting a steep rise in suicides, fortunately these latest ABS figures show that the number has decreased. In fact, the data shows suicide rates are the lowest they've been since 2016. This aligns with what we're seeing in many countries around the world, reversing a climbing trend prior to COVID-19. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-10-01/abs-data-suicide-rates-still-high-despite-2020-covid-drop/100504214

Still no Awapuni on Sportsbet

Karen and John training at Riccarton now?

`Where did you see that? Or, do you mean in the UK when they reopened?

In the year to 30 June 2021, 607 people died by suspected suicide, compared to 628 the year before – a decrease of 21 deaths, and a drop in the suspected suicide rate from 11.8 deaths per 100,000 to 11.6. https://coronialservices.justice.govt.nz/assets/Uploads/Chief-Coroner-releases-annual-suicide-statistics-launches-new-web-tool-with-Ministry-of-Health2.pdf

Hmmm... that's odd. Might have got confused when they took the original meeting down. Up on Topsport and Laddies though. There on 365 too but no prices yet which is usual for them.

Any schooling fences left at Riccarton? Or did they disappear with the AWT build?

Or you could take a punt, go to the races and follow them round assuming you won't get swabbed if you don't win.

Appears to be in season springs to mind.

He gives Diane full credit in here: https://loveracing.nz/News/34534/MissTycoonRosesetsspecialmarkforPitman.aspx

Was handy on the flat too from memory. Couple of Parliamentarys back in the day when that was a great race. Think BJ rode him in most if not all of his wins.

I think you mean the Racing Integrity Board. I would think the stipes would be an option to address and monitor it.

Still getting the same 502 error on this page. https://whenracingwins.nz/stepping-workplace-bullying https://whenracingwins.nz.master-7rqtwti-3pt3l7ajckbw2.au.platformsh.site/get-help-report

Yeahh no biggie but as you said, it should have been tested and the documents proof-read before going live. More of a worry is this: When you fill in the fields below, all your information stays confidential - and one of our expert advisors will get in touch Confidential to whom or what? How will it be stored? How do I access it? This is health information and needs to be managed in compliance with the HIP Code 2020. And, who are these "experts"? I'm not sure that NZTR has the same idea about what expertise is as I do. Are they health professionals bound by a code of ethics? I'm not sure I'd be very comfortable sending that sort of private information winging its way into the ether to some unknown destination for perusal by some unknown person/s. Would you?

It seems a logical decision to me. It also means the horse will not lose rating points.
