It's not difficult. Yes, it's partly a handicapping issue, but as I and many others have stated numerous times, the main issue is programming (including trials as you have noted elsewhere). Another year has gone by and there has again been no visible effort by NZTR to address this for the new season.

No. I think he is saying the current foal crop size is optimal for that isn't he?

Still often necessary down here. Can't get rating points at jumpouts.

Looks like no one got the beans?

33 noms for Riccarton trials tomorrow I see. Just over 100 at Avondale.

Sold it for 100 bucks and gave the council 250k cash as well.

Yes, I thought it'd be handy for things like that and interviewing jocks, checking gear and brands, making sure no medications were being administered in the stable area etc. Handy for trainers to notify stipes of stuff they have to as well.

And even when they do they are a long way from HD. RV can do it straight away, so punters and other partcipants can be informed. https://www.racing.com/videos/stewards-vision

Oh. I see. I thought it meant he was only remotely interested.

Kelly you mean, I think. Or do you also have Kylie on your mind?

Is this a new thing? Stewards: J Oatham (Chair), N Goodwin, K Jillings (Trainee), M Davidson (remote)

Nothing wrong with them. Did you nominate any?

You'd think they could have offered slightly better stakes for the jumping races they moved to Waverley.

Yes. Was actually Freda's but I inherited him!

Rode her first ever winner for us 2 years ago just before moving to Mark's. A real dedicated star and no doubt Shelley Houston has been a great mentor. Definitely well deserves to be here if not win it.

Probably because 150+ trialists will generate a lot more revenue than an industry race day.

At least they are now living at an appropriate address.

Well I appreciate it's across all 3 codes, so the fact that not too many names ring a bell for me is not surprising.

How much time and money did they just spend on the Te Aroha track. Now it needs deep drainage work to make it suitable for winter racing? What a f&^K up.

Who What is he doing then?

Overseas? Do you mean from the NI to the SI?

Maybe the programming is causing there to be less and less available horses as opportunities for them become more and more limited and owners give up?

Looks like they are now having to move northern meetings to the CD because all the tracks up there are either stuffed or overused. Probably need to think about trialling your 3yo at Foxton?
