- Congrats Damien Oliver, what a way to end your stellar career by winning on Munhamek! Saturday’s Gold Rush experience was unforgettable & the scenes other worldly - thoroughbred racing theatre at its ridiculous best. Because seriously, just how ridiculous was it?! 😂🤯🫶🏼
- #IPL - @Bazmccullum speaks to @MClarke23 about his 'Coup Ray' bat & Rebecca Black Trust #KKRvGL @TheGujaratLions
00:00 - This was an absolutely extraordinary podcast to listen to with Amanda Knox & @joerogan… so many things to take from it. Thanks for giving so articulately @amandaknox. #phenomenalHad a 3 hour conversation with @joerogan, who was genuine, thoughtful, compassionate, and humble. We need more such conversations, less judgment, fewer hot takes. Thank you, Joe! open.spotify.com/episode/5N3DTJ…
- Happy to hear that the man who nearly cost human & equine life during r8 at Trentham has been arrested. The vision below is graphic It further highlights the highest danger of said man’s actions given the speed & power horses travel at. “Get offfff, you idiot”, is audible

- For 20+ years my sister Kiri has worked tirelessly as a lawyer for families & children of NZ. Today it was announced that she has accepted a call to the bench. She’s an incredible asset to the NZ Justice system. Our family couldn’t be more proud of her. #manawahine #JudgeTan
- As the article linked discusses, NZ racing & its people are working very hard to keep the sport going in the midst of a pandemic. nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/art… TFC isn't a part of the plan & whilst there are myriad bigger things, it's weird being removed from the fight. My statement
- Congratulations to @Kemeys & the @boysgetpaid group for what they’ve achieved today with their #KarakaMillion punters’ club. The execution of it all was phenomenal (+27%!) and hopefully the benefits to #NZracing will be manifested for generations well beyond today’s numbers.
- Very very sad to learn that Trevor McKee has died. A legend who was a kind-hearted man to all humans and horses he interacted with. Rest in peace TJ. Thank you sir. Thinking of his wife Noeline, son Stephen and all the family at this time.
- A thought for the day. If you’re anti-horse racing & not a full practicing vegan, then your reckons are invalid to me. Happy to have rational discussions with those who practice what they preach, live the values they want others to hold, & don’t just cherry-pick causes.
- One of the funniest no-try stuff ups you will see in rugby! 😂😂 #forwardpass #putitdownman #Titch #face #priceless #London7s
00:00 - Legendary NZ thoroughbred trainer and raconteur Murray Baker has announced his retirement! Training partner Andrew Forsman will take sole control of operations at the start of May. Exciting times for both people. Could Murray sign off with another Oz G1 this Autumn?
- Whilst of course it’s a great opportunity for Jamie Richards to train in HK, his appointment is a breathe of fresh air for the ranks there. It’s hard to imagine Richards not being a star performer & like many, I wish him the best of success. @HKJC_Racing @HutchisHonkers
