It's a big sentence. I do feel a bit sorry for him, because apparently he has financial trouble, but it was a really terrible thing to do. I guess they're using him as an example to discourage others from doing anything like it ever again.

O'Marilyn! WOW.

That was the best performance by a 3yo in NZ so far this season, and by a long way.

Very nice from Darci's Dream at Riccarton. She's a lot better than I thought she was!

Pure Champion!

That's not good! Annoying. Hopefully the rest will be put up soon.

I hope so. You know where you click on the results for a specific race and it says overview / dividends / video? Strange how the video part is completely missing!

I did just watch O'Marilyn and WOW. That was a gutsy ride from Sam!

Also watched Darci's Dream and a few others (was going to say Chumana's race but I suppose I should remember it from the winner, Victoryshallbemine, instead of her awesome blaze, huh? ).

Surprised to see Amun Ra running against older horses at Matamata but maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. Hope he does well. I really do hope he ends up being all that!

That is a bit surprising, but when I talked to the trainer last week he said he needed to give the horse another run before the Hawke's Bay Guineas on October 4 - his plans were messed around by the cancellation of the trials last week.

The rest of the replays seem to be there now.
