Te Rapa is off for Sat, relocated to Te Aroha.

It is time now someones head rolls over this. Rutherford might have to fall on his sword.

Blaming the weather etc etc....nobody's head will roll. this is n.z. racing?

It may have had something to do with John Bell saying...

His hind heels are red-raw from the sand from the track,” Bell said. “There are horses out of that race and out of that race meeting that have had to have vet attention to flush eyes out.”

Disgraceful...NZTR's governance and communication to stakeholders has been woeful on this matter..

All the board to fall on their sword and offer up resignation as well, this is a must, surely.

OTT Bazz...

If every Board in NZ resigned after an operational f up we'd have SFA Boards..

What usually happens here...Kenny offers his head...and the Board refuses...

Must be a bloody big cock involved.

Just hopped onto the WRC website to see who is on the committee and discovered this little gem.... 

 'The racetrack is one of the best in the country and provides an excellent surface all year round.'

Sleep easy guys the WRC has it all under control

Thomass you dip shit, the board can offer up resignation and re-apply & go through the process to see if members have confidence in them.

This isn't a one off situation with the board, been a comedy of issues that need to be tested.

In that case it's up to the members? Special General Meeting. Sack the Board. New Board sack the CEO etc. and start over. Is there the will though?

Imagine how Kenny Browne, Dr Alex McGregor Grant and Jack Winder are feeling upstairs, noting that the 2018 McGregor Grant Steeples went from Ellerslie to Te Rapa then Trentham and the Pakuranga Hunt Cup has so far gone from Ellerslie, to Te Rapa and is currently at Te Aroha. and they'll be smoking more cones to relieve their nerves in about a fortnight's time.........Where will the 2018 Great Northern Steeples be run ?

Well it's obviously rooted. Might need two years even if I get the tractor up there by Sunday.

They have clearly accepted your offer

Meeting News

Transfer of September Meetings in Northern Region

 

Following on from the Pakuranga Hunt meeting moving to Te Aroha, the Auckland RC Premier Meeting on 9 September will now also be staged at that venue. This has necessitated the cancellation of the Te Aroha meeting on Sunday 2 September. NZTR will work with the Northern Programming Committee to add a race(s) where necessary during this period.  

 In order that maintenance work can be carried out on the Te Rapa track two industry days later in September have also had venue changes:

 Wednesday September 19: This meeting will now be conducted by the Waipa RC at Te Awamutu

Wednesday September 26: This meeting will now be conducted by the Matamata RC at Matamata

 Any minor distance changes required will be notified in the coming days.

Surely Marty Burns gave Bernie the wink wink nudge about Julius's trainer John Bell giving it to the industry?

His much loved horse and stable hero had to endure "red raw heels" post race...smack bang in the middle of the track...where the deepest sand blasting was taking place...

...and other horses having Vets called to flush their eyes out...

Animal welfare comes before Board egos doesn't it?
