Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Remember the Canary? Andrew Fitzgerald? The dodgy unregistered Kiwi syndicator we have been telling about for a couple of years now who has been selling shares in horses that he doesn’t even own, and sometimes selling them twice. Queen of Swords is one of them. The Off N Racing Syndications Exposed – Part 2 – […]
Remember where all the NZ mares and colts are being exported to? Mongolia. To become trek horses they say. Funny that. https://peterprofit.com/?s=china Here are the list of owners who have sold NZ horses in this month’s consignment to China. It’s time to name them. Things that stay in the shadows always remain dark and hidden. […]
The exodus of fertile NZ mares to China continues. After our pointed questions about the exports a few weeks back, this time the Chinese buyers have thrown a few colts in. I won’t tell you what they do with horse’s testicles in China. Take a guess. Notice that the male sales are all young. So […]

She was as guilty as sin, […]

Arsenic is not regarded as performance enhancing, but its presence at levels above the threshold is regarded as likely to be injurious to the health and welfare of a horse. That’s what the Adjudicative Committee of the New Zealand Racing Integrity Board said last week in the case of the Stewards v Ian Jamieson. What […]
New Zealand trainer Graeme Telfer’s stables were raided by Stewards employed by the Racing Integrity Board. They discovered in his possession a galvanised steel pipe with a portion of barbed wire coiled around a section of the pipe and secured by electrical tape, with a short leather strap attached to the opposite end. It was […]
