    My apologies oh wise one !

    Thought the idea was to stamp out corruption and that Sam was looking to do this. Going to the stewards, now hang on did not two stewards leave for "unknown reasons"

    A Piece of advice always go straight to the top to the person that makes the decisions. If you go to a restaurant and the food is crap what do you do ? Tell the waiter as if he cares that much ! Tell the chef who like most thinks his food is the best and gets "upset" and ignores you. Or tell the owner that the food is "poor" and that you aint coming back and won't recommend the place to your friends.

    Which one of the above is in the best position to fix this !

    Please take note Shawshank.... lol. Aussiebreno speaks the truth! :P

    And in all honesty Shawshank (and this has nothing to do with what has been said on here in regards to Mr Pizzuto) but it is always easier to admit when you have stuffed up if you aren't subject to a pitchfork and torch witchunt that is all too common on internet forums. Whenever someone speaks (rather) nasty about you, it is only natural you want to defend yourself no matter what you have/haven't done. It's human nature... people are more likely to acknowledge mistakes in a diplomatic rather than hostile environment. *shurgs*

    Yeah I agree actually. Trainer's should also ring Mr Nati and inform him of any change of tactics. Race-day officials should also gain Mr Nati's approval before settling on which horses get stabled where on raceday. Track curators should also inform Sam of when the water truck needs re-filling. Drivers should also ask Sam for assistance with whether to use Napi-San or Omo when washing their driver pants. Clerks of the course should also inform Sam when their horse gets shod.
    It isn't Mr Nati's duty to disect each race from a stewarding point of view.

    Just taking the mickey but I would love to see you *Shurgs" Sounds erotic !

    Just like the actress who wants to be a star and have everyone love her and talk about and watch her, then boo hoo shes crying because she has no privacy !

    Lets not forget like actors and sportspeople these guys and girls ( Happy Red ? ) are performing under the public spotlight and criticism and compliments go with the territory !

    Putting forward a good defence is sensible, abusing people never helps !

    Aussiebreno you must repair old clocks because you do a good job of winding me up.

    Sam Nati CEO and the biggest issue is corruption ! he needs to set the rules for stewards to enforce !

    The drive looked bad to me, it will be interesting to see what the stewards think of it.

    Kevin,
    Looking back at that race do you believe that you will have much of a problem with the stewards?

    How'd you know? I was down at the track the other day actually and overheard somebody say "Gee, this bloke broke the clock" I went over looking for some business. Turns out the horse ran a half in 56.*

    *Story may not be true.

    Btw your username is epic. My favourite movie bar none.
