Happy Sunrise Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Dexter should be up for NZ Sportsperson of the Year, and win it. In this Covid year, how could he not be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karrots Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Great Forbury for highlighting this and yes Happy what a fantastic idea. Someone should put his name forward for it, based on his achievements. On a side note, taking a look thru exported and then stable changes and I see approx recently 9 horses transferred out from 1 stable. Go to that persons name and it says not currently licensed. Maybe I have missed something and retirement had previously been announced. No opinion nor speculation from me. Just noting public made info.

Karrots Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Oh and since I am pointing out public made info, for those that don't know, saw in news the other day that the Horse Ambulance that was stolen was recovered in 1 piece. Yay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The All Stars take a break from training and it is big news yet when Dalgety and Kerr disappear and go licensed there is nothing on any news avenue at all. It can only lead me to guess it is not a positive that is happened. All those big social media identities are deathly silent about it too. Will the Box Seat cover it? Not on your nelly. HRNZ? Never. Offnracing website still has him down a listed trainer on its website though he is no linger a trainer. Harness is a joke sometimes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was in line to pick up a few from All Stars as well from what I'm told as is Regan Todd. Lost his Open Driver licence too, you hate to speculate but he and Matt A were a great combination.... i was thinking maybe he was moving to AUS but if so his licence's would remain until the end of the season. This is more fishy than a 'K' road brothel. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's from one of his owners who was advised the horses had been transferred to Paul. I'm hearing some have been sent elsewhere. As always innocent until proven guilty. May be absolutely nothing in it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Sunrise Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 2 hours ago, JJ Flash said: saying he is giving up for personal reasons Worthy of some form of public announcement, especially the sudden nature of it? I suppose 'personal' means private but just so odd considering the ability / strike rate of his team and he was on the up with so many good horses. He would have been one to have taken advantage of the All Stars situation but not to be obviously. Dalgety, now Kerr, maybe the game needs to do better supporting these trainers.

Happy Sunrise Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 The horse was transformed once it went to Kerr's after showing little with the original trainer. Now it is back Would you back it on Friday night? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougie Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I may be wrong but I thought Paul Kerr trained at West Melton? Has he moved to Ohoka to take over the barn? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karrots Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Just thought I'd jump in here quickly and say sorry to Forbury for side-tracking completely off his topic of Dexter. Oopsey daisy - apologies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many of those who promote harness racing are hypocrites when it comes to giving followers of the sport news that may shed a negative light on anything or anyone. They know silence only leads to speculation, yet they are silent anyway. Who knows,maybe the riu is keeping the sport honest.That theory is just as good as any. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rush in to break news when it suits but if it is their mate or not convenient they go silent. They talk about attracting people to the game but the shit that goes on largely uncontested in harness racing is a complete turn off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The news is stable closed under somewhat of a cloud and potential investigations may occur 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
