Yeah great for raising an issue that others presented to him but what he has said and done since is mostly BS and conspiracy. It just divides and adds nothing at all. Actually it is worse because he and his ilk tend to take others along with them and they become a rabid chorus of disenfranchised all barking up the wrong tree. What has he done since that concerns you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Stipe Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago 1 hour ago, curious said: What has he done since that concerns you? Whiteman aka @Transparency has abused a number of stakeholders on Facebook including trainers, owners, track staff, NZTR to name a few. Everyone that started at the last Riccarton AWT meeting copped a disgraceful serve from him. Such that Tony Pike was moved to reply in defence of his two yr old stakes winner. Whiteman accused Lindsay the owner of being a disgusting mercenary who had no care for the welfare of his horse. The irony of course is that is who bought a half share in Pivotal Ten off him and wined and dined him at the KiwiB trough as he would call it. Further he has made nonsense claims about the AWT tracks and their design further highlighting his ignorance on the subject. Not to mention his baseless in fact tirades against the Hastings track. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what he has said that might upset you and many others, but I was asking what he had done that concerned you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of what he says concerns me but you said "what he has said and done since is mostly BS and conspiracy". I am wondering what he has done that worries you. To me, that has only been constructive and shown initiative to remedy some problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your part of the problem, can you not see the ones complaining about poly tracks are making it hard for others?

curious Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Why am I part of the problem? As far as I can see others do make their own decisions. I've won several races on it. Freda's just won another one. What's wrong with that in your mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been a good day of racing for mine, yes some don’t handle it as well, but that’s part of racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I raced on it a fortnight ago and tried to buy one just this week specifically to race on it. I sent my first horse in 20 years to the SI as soon as I was confident the then new Riccarton one was OK to train and race on. I think if there is a problem, it's in your head. The only problem I have with them is the shocking and dangerous state they have been allowed to get into due to a severe lack of timely and appropriate maintenance.
