New Zealand Racing Hall of Fame trainer Graeme Rogerson has won the Gr.1 Victoria Derby (2500m) once and three times run second, and hopes to bolster that record on Saturday. With the zest of a teenager, the 75-year-old horseman is showing no signs of slowing down as he attempts to add to his Group One haul of 53. Rogerson’s wife and co-trainer Debbie has an insight into the master trainer’s psyche like no other and she believes that in Sharp ‘N’ Smart, the couple has what it takes to give…

Wiseman and Shiers both notch 400th career win at Darwin
Star NT jockey Sonja Wiseman was one of two jockeys at Darwin last Saturday to bring up their 400th career win. In a remarkable coincidence, both Paul Shiers and Sonja Wiseman rode their 400th winner during the Darwin Turf Club’s meeting at Fannie Bay on Saturday. Shiers, 50, got the ball rolling aboard The Kid in the opening event on the five-race program, while Wiseman, 30, achieved the feat in the very next race with Blueant. The Kid, a three-year-old gelding, was having just his second start in the Top…

The Follow Files: I’m Thunderstruck shows Group 1 class yet again
After 17 races were run and won at Moonee Valley with rain all of Friday night and Saturday morning, the track held up considerably well. Jockeys were cautious of taking their horses to the inside rail, but in the last race of the day we saw Bella Nipotina run straight up the rail to win the Manikato Stakes. Thus, it is fair to say that if your horse was good enough on the day, you could win from anywhere. Moonee Valley – Cox Plate Day Track rating: Heavy 8Rail position:…
Temporary Change to Nomination Schedule
Despite the current racing population being at a level to support 25 meetings per week, it has become a regular occurrence for some meetings to not receive enough nominations by the advertised close time, resulting in nomination close times being extended. This practice often results in uncertainty for participants, trainer confusion relating to roll-over nominations and trainer perceptions of unfairness in the nominating and grading process. As such, GRV are conducting a pilot over a six-week period during which time the advertised nomination close time for all meetings is deemed…
