Bob certainly won't help the in a rush drive, whether or not it's P or individual trainers that are responsible for these shocking conditions, it's another serious blow to the image of racing.
At a time when we are trying to attract high flyers with new money into the game and the exposure of the bottom of the ladder must make it uncomfortable for all in racing

How do box owners and the media know this ? For instance David Thiselton, can you say he did not know the grooms situation.If he didnt he should give up being one.Active owners know everything.

Yes

The fact that the situation did not arise overnight should answer all your questions

Look I don't know how my domestic worker lives but what I do know is I pay her R30 an hour (she only works one morning a week for me) How does a trainer pay R300 a week to a groom and still sleep at night? That, if true, is disgusting and exploitative.

Yes

So are you talking about yourself also ?

What makes us or them different from you ?

This box owner and website have written about it

What's your point ? Do you actually have a point ?

MR H

How do the trainers that strike deals pay staff ?

Sorry but if trainers can't afford to pay grooms more there is something mum and dad about the game.

Wages are a cost , that cost should be passed onto owners , if we can't afford to pay more we shouldn't own horses
