    Just this minute, it has been moved to Avondale!! That is awful news. Worst place to go racing in NZ!

    Is it that last meet there or something? I thought it was being torn down!

    RITA were weak and have given them a license for this season.

    *Next season. Subject to a review of racing in the region, much like Forbury Park.

            @Smudge good run from your girl from that gate.

            Happy with both the runs of our girls. Massive improvement will be gained.

            If you get into a thoroughbred filly as a yearling, nominate it for Pearl series. We came 5th and got the 10k bonus where the winner of the race got 2/3s of that.

            Not a normal situation to be fair but good for the syndicate.

              Yep very pleased with NYN fresh. Judging by the Stridemaster sectionals she ran the fastest last 800m and last 400. She will only get better from that.

                Looks as though I received duff gen. It was a one off at Riccarton where they paid for first filly/mare home.

                  Mates of mine won $30k (+ $5k each for the trainer and breeder) when their filly ran 6th in Cup Week in 2013, thanks to the Pearl Series. Only two other paid up Pearl horses in that race and they finished behind my friends' horse.

                    after this weekend i am sorely tempted to give up the punt. Bet on races both days. A couple of same game AFL multis. And all i have to show for it are a couple of money backs.

                    Just a debacle

                      You need to increase your bet size to win it all back...…

                      Got a horse for you one Wednesday, just for that opportunity 🙂

                        @Smudge and @Hooroo i would love to hear your thoughts on Bowman's actions in the 1st at Rosehill that caused that fall?

                        From my admittedly very layman perspective, it was a fucking terrible piece of riding that has resulted in a serious injury to a jockey, and the death of a very promising horse. IMO he should get a huge suspension for that.

                          Was talking about that yesterday at golf.

                          Do you ban on the action or the severity of the result? In my mind you have to take in a lot of the outcome into the punishment. Could have killed jockey but that is same for any poor riding that is deemed reckless.

                          The death of the horse is the kicker for me (regardless if it was a promising horse or not) Someone just had upwards of $100,000 dollars burnt because of a reckless Jockey and worse is that poor horse should not be dead.

                          So in my mind he has months and months off! He won't get that though.

                          When is the hearing?

                          EDIT: and I also think "Harm to the industry" has to be added to the suspension.

                            the hearing is on-going because they want to talk to Adkins. Won't know the outcome until the weekend at the least.

                            I've never seen a move like it. He turns at 45 degrees and just throws his horse in front of the others. It is even worse because there was an opening to head inside he ignored.

                            He's 100% in the wrong, and it will take some weasel words for NSW Racing to let him off because he is a star jockey.

                              @Smudge and @Hooroo i would love to hear your thoughts on Bowman's actions in the 1st at Rosehill that caused that fall?

                              From my admittedly very layman perspective, it was a fucking terrible piece of riding that has resulted in a serious injury to a jockey, and the death of a very promising horse. IMO he should get a huge suspension for that.

                              Was talking about that yesterday at golf.

                              Do you ban on the action or the severity of the result? In my mind you have to take in a lot of the outcome into the punishment. Could have killed jockey but that is same for any poor riding that is deemed reckless.

                              The death of the horse is the kicker for me (regardless if it was a promising horse or not) Someone just had upwards of $100,000 dollars burnt because of a reckless Jockey and worse is that poor horse should not be dead.

                              So in my mind he has months and months off! He won't get that though.

                              When is the hearing?

                              EDIT: and I also think "Harm to the industry" has to be added to the suspension.

                              the hearing is on-going because they want to talk to Adkins. Won't know the outcome until the weekend at the least.

                              I've never seen a move like it. He turns at 45 degrees and just throws his horse in front of the others. It is even worse because there was an opening to head inside he ignored.

                              He's 100% in the wrong, and it will take some weasel words for NSW Racing to let him off because he is a star jockey.

                              Any rumours on likely ban length??

                              Do you know what date The Havarovian last ran? Trying to find him to throw onto my TAB tracker

                                  on teh ban length, i have heard nothing. just read forums and such where the range goes from "2 years!" to "not his fault, all the horse, let him ride"

                                    Jesus. Give him months.

                                    That really takes me back in time; I could just imagine Mr. Lawson barreling into the Stipes' room with an ashen look on his face. Those types of incidents were fucking horrible and made for very long days (my uni part time job was on camera crew and playback for the Stipes).

                                      In his early evidence before the hearing was adjourned, Bowman tried to claim his actions were forced by the horse in front of him. But when you see the yawning gap towards the rail, it's a weak argument. The sharpness of the angle was the worst thing - gave those horses outside him absolutely no chance to adjust:

                                      *“I endeavoured to make a run to the outside of Glyn Schofield (Mr Colourful), which I had every right to and, in doing so, I was going to have to move Andrew slightly but I felt that I was able to do so,” Bowman reportedly told stewards.

                                      “There was a shift by the horse in front of me (Mr Colourful) and I was committed to the move that I made.

                                      “I felt at the time I made the call to go to the outside of Glyn I could do so without causing any interference to Andrew.”*

                                      I suspect he'll get 3 months. Back just in time for the spring carnival. Depends on whether it's careless, reckless or dangerous riding on the "charge sheet".

                                        It was Farken horrific to watch. I even had money on hot n hazy which wasn’t going too well then that happened....nasty stuff

                                        And the Harrovian...gee that need to try take that thing to town again for a decent race at the city tracks rather than bloody cairns etc.

                                        Anyone see Bryan race in the weekend? In Toowoomba now, after a short stint in Perth and just about everywhere else in Aussie. It really has raced just about everywhere in Aus. Will prob turn up down in tassie next

                                          I thought The Harrovian had shifted to South Australia to race at Morphetville? @mariner4life can confirm
