Top Racing Journalist Will Be Missed
What a fine gentleman. Had the privilege of meeting him at a dinner held at Vincennes race course in France a few years ago. Lovely person to have spent time with and wonderful stories that he shared. Sad loss to the industry. My sincere condolences to the family. Will be fondly

Richard himself will beat this record are Hollywood prepared to raise the stake that's all it needs
For me Hollywood should be offering 1bar to Brett to win three Julys in a row and an incentive to the trainer who can beat him word has it he has a nag already lined up for next year Brett for me is the trainer of the year keeping in mind the Hollywoodbets Durban July is the bees

One hellava bloke. He came out to SA with Simon Holt in the early days courtesy of the late Jimmy Lithgow. A very serious passionate journo. RIP

Hey Cecil
Im good thanks will give you a shout tomorrow
When Natal dropped to the B division I jumped ship like most it was either Wp with the Duplessis Brothers or the Blue Bulls with Nass I was a great fan of Michael Duplessis he knew no rules or conventional game styles much like Tony
With the way my beloved Hluhluwe has been handled who can blame me
I have a solution to this doping nonsense The owner is actually liable through the authority to act form he or she signs over to the trainer so I say make the owner liable for all bets struck with the tote and any bookmaker and you will quickly see doping dry up can you imagine being liable for say one to two bar in winning bets paid out
Ultimately the owner allows or doesn't allow his or her trainer to bend the rules I've been around too long to know these are the real facts
Go way back in history produce all the positives and then produce evidence of whether the owner stayed or moved yard
I think enough

Hi Richard
Unlike the horses or the human champions, the media awards are based on submitted entries by the individuals themselves.These are not made public.
So for all we know, it is possible that none of the persons mentioned as your picks, even entered.

With respect to the panel, all three Media Awards were just wrong!
Here's how it should've been:
- Media Award (Broadcast) – Alistair Cohen
- Media Award (Print) – David Thiselton
- Media Award (Photographic) – Candiese

All good!. 3 months ago Dave the King wasn't in the frame. I saw him win a race at Hollywoodbets Scottsville beating a moderate field rather easily but from there the boy came alive.
Well done to him and we are going to still see him racing.
I am very pleased for Vicky. She took over from Fiona Ramsden, not an easy thing to do, but has
