It was a direct question, not general “constructive” information. You have asked many direct questions on this forum before Chief

Do you have shares in Te Akau horse Chief?

And for the record Chief, my source is the one and only Jamie Richards....via trackside interview.

Chief........maybe you need to get your facts straight instead of policing everyone else.........I have no axe to grind with Te Akau....you couldn't be further from the truth. I make a comment about the latest headlines and you turn that on me......start adding some constructive debate on here instead personal attacks on posters.....which you seem to do when it suits yourself and pull others up when it doesn’t suit you

Mare was know to have “issues”.......easier to run with “issues” with a bit of morphine in the system.

Couldn’t agree with you more Nomates.....burn the old calendar and start again. Imagine the shit fight between clubs across the country over new days/dates, but its these tougher decisions that need sorted ASAP.

Based on community attendance.........you seem to be big on ‘community’ when it suits your argument.

Yet Kumara is one of the most popular race meetings in the country...

No Reefton .......WRC could still have everything and merged or maybe raced at another course.....but no..... “dimwit”decisions were made.

Yep Hoki community fully supporting Kumara races (which by they way is great to see). So is it the Hoki community or certain individuals in the Westland Racing club that have their noses out of joint. Community has carried on enjoying racing ....17 miles up the road. So did NZTR make the right decision?

We will agree to disagree Curious......Westland made their bed, now they can lie in it.

I wonder how many people from the Hokitika community went to the Kumara races yesterday?

No i dont agree. Your like a broken record reefton ........ we need country racing and city racing. Comparing to the actions Westland took v’s how city clubs are operated and their rate of returns are two seperate matters. The fact of the matter is Westland gave the finger to the INDUSTRY and gave everything away, instead of thinking how they can retain their balance sheet and use those funds for the betterment of West Coast racing.

So your telling me a strong balance sheet for the future is not needed? They could have sold the land, added the proceeds to their bank account, kept their existing cash instead of giving that away and had a even stronger cash position for the future of the club. But no........

Maybe they should get the land and money back before they sit back down at the big boys table

Wow........They give the finger to the Industry and now they want the Industry to support them......this isn’t the 1st of April.

Track issues today at Kumara. How does that happen on a Dead 6

We are 24hrs out from the 1st at Kumara and Oceans Away is going to have a busy day.....Race 6 (Daniel Bothamley loaded to ride)....Race 7 (Kavish loaded to ride). Why is this even allowed? TAB fixed odds are out.....where does this leave punters.... no odds out yet on Oceans Away winning the double on the day

Yep too early .....which plays right into one stables hands. This years race is shaping up to be one of the worst fields for years.

1/2 second faster than the Railway

Maybe he should stick to the Egyptian sands

A couple dollars may have gone into their managed fund.....which is approx $50mil.

Enjoy the racing today at Ellerslie.....or are you that anty any city course you dont even want to watch on TV either?

So ridiculous it’s borderline funny

Strapper gets a small % of winnings like the jock & Trainer
