Brodie Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Not a major, but I notice that Stunin Love in the last race at Oamaru today is down as being a 4 year old e! An e stands for an entire which means he isn’t two stones lighter! They used to always call the male horses over 3 years of age horses if they hadn’t been gelded! Has this now changed or is there something I am not aware of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a major but you would think that they should get rid of one or the other? Suppose it is better to be an entire rather than a rig!

Spatchcock Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 oh god. 'entire' is a universally-accepted term for an ungelded older male horse. Why is this even a thread? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is this even a thread? Why is it a thread? Because the TAB had Stunin Luck down as an ENTIRE!!!!!!!! Why isn’t he registered as a HORSE then if that is the NORM???????? Surely it should be one or the other if they are BOTH THE SAME!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a Horse!!!! hrnz as the governing body handle the registration of horses not the tab so stunin love is registered as a horse as its a non gelded male 4 years plus another term for a 4yo plus male horse is an entire as pointed out a couple of times previously the tab have chosen to use the term entire while hrnz have it down as a horse hopefully this clears things up for you but if not please feel free to ask questions or hurl more abuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether they are a horse or entire seems a straight choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
