All he needed to say they all have chances and blah blah in race blah is probably the best of ours.

No point in embracing social media if your not willing to be transparent, especially in Flamingo with all it`s problems

Pirates ,we actually don't want different things ,our differences are that I don't believe every disseminated word in racing is necessarily accurate, so I would like a little regulated monitoring to up the percentages!!!!

I know this has been debated at length but I would rather have "no comment" rather than the standard blah blah blah.
What we need is the NHA to monitor and enforce the Consistency and "run on merit" rules and we will be good.
Too much of the blah blah blah is exactly that !!!!...........................lol

Maybe my 40 years in the game has made me cynical(mind you,no maybe about it...lol)but anybody who feels guided by a comment such as "horse is doing well at home and we are hoping for a good run" , is either naïve or very new to the game! :woohoo:

then I must be both as all I want to know is the wellbeing of the horse as the rest I can work out myself
