You can't help yourself @Huey .  I know this will wind you up hence I'm posting it.  I see Mark Walker (Te Akau) received an Award from Southside Racing (Cranbourne and Pakenham) for the "Best Strike Rate Trainer" for the last season!  Plus the South Island Trainers championship!

 

Fantastic for him , he throughly deserves it if he won it.

If you think the black type racing is New Zealand is weak then I guess you haven't tried to win some!

LOL I must say that this comment has me uncontrollably laughing as it contradicts where you and others went with this thread.  So are you saying the trick to racing success is "to buy expensive yearlings and place them well"?

2 & 3yo racing in NZ is mostly dominated by expensive Aus breed stock , if it isn't why are they pay such huge sums of money for them? So they can win at Waipuk?

It isn't actually but you must attend the Colin Wightman school of facts - called The College of Hunches and Anecdotes!

As you said in an earlier post if you buy well bred yearlings you are more likely to have black type success.

Why don't you take up a new hobby like macrame.  You're actually worse than @nomates and @Joe Bloggs except they have had more success in racing than you have.

Hear me now - racing doesn't need you.  Although now that Freddie Tibbles has gone I'm sure you could make a great Clerk of the Course!!!

Freddie Tibbles the ole Kumara icon, certainly a blast from the past, must have lived to a ripe old age.

Haha nothing like some facts to put you in your place @Chief Stipe!

Racing does need me @Chief Stipe it needs my paintbrush and it needs you on a club committee , sharing your insurmountable knowledge coupled with your lack of experience and exit stage left attitude when things get tough.

Be a "doer" not a "sayer" @Chief Stipe a "doer" not a "sayer"!!

50/50 when half the sires don't stand in this country , maybe I'm wrong and youre not ready for a club committe role just yet ... I still believe though.
