Top Kimberley trainer receives death threats

Flash Pirates he agree with you !

k

The ethics of some of my colleagues, leaves a lot to be desired in cases like this. Have heard of times where trainers have died or become seriously ill and have had their owners phoned to move the horses from him to them before they have even expressed their condolences or inquired as to the health of the seriously ill person. Disgusting in my book.

So I take it we can now expect Dean Kannemeyer Sean Tarry Joe Ramsden etc to be spending 2 days a week in Durban/Clairwood, Stef was actively involved in the Miller yard since the year dot and she is more than capable but well done to you guys for complying to this ridiculous stipulation, clearly some are looked upon as less equal than others...

many injustices have gone on in kimberly in the last 10 years and each and every time they have been sweeped under the carpet maybe its time we had an external inquiry into these events and let those that have suffered in silence come out with THE TRUTH

Who are the Trainers and Owner involved in This?

Waking up and checking ABC.....and then to read this! What is happening in our country??

It would appear that there are many "under the lap" owners that operate out of Kimberly who feel that they are untouchable and can threaten people and not have to face the wrath of the NHRA...sadly it appears that they are right...

Just heard that there was also a Durban trainer and his wife that recieved death threats and took the case to court but the accused was a no show....

The NHRA should be doing what the FA done in the UK with JT and make their own case and start warning people off at least

Titch you are missing the point....these trainers you list all have licensed assistants at their satelite yards.....and even if a person has worked in a stable for years the experience means nothing to the authorities......I'm sure once Stef gets an assistant trainers license she can be left alone without the trainers having to be in the yard on a bi weekly basis.....

You are no doubt right M but the point i am trying to make is why was this stipulation not put in place from the get go so that everyone would know their commitments, the reason for the objection to the authorities has ulterior motives and does not take into account the fact that Steph is more than capable of running the yard unsupervised, Sham racing has and will continue to be a force in Kim and this is seen as a threat to some who are looking for a way to get them out...it is a shame that the powers that be need to be told/reminded of the rules that they are meant to implement ..

I remember getting told that the Miller yard was feeding half the horses in Kimberley a few months back,short memory these guys have
