Neil WilsonGUEST
Look, I think – There are probably two key parts to that for me.
Neil WilsonGUEST
As you know, we worked very closely with Racing Victoria five years ago on putting in place new standards for horses that are entering the Lexus Melbourne Cup and other races, but certainly the Lexus Melbourne Cup was the primary focus given the incidents we'd been having from a welfare point of view and they were very serious and very important to us first and foremost to to be projecting the horses and jockeys during racing and the Melbourne Cup.
Neil WilsonGUEST
It was interesting at the time, I remember getting calls most nights after we announced those from overseas owners and trainers and how ridiculous they were and how extreme they were and they'll never bring a horse again.
Neil WilsonGUEST
So we had a pretty tight sort of period there where there wasn't people coming from the international shores as they were pre-COVID because that also timing-wise around the same time that we put those restrictions in.
KingsHOST
The Donny would be a good one.
RichHOST
And hopefully they can – Racing Victoria can keep building it up.
RichHOST
So hopefully all those bookies turn up again next year because they got stripped.
RichHOST
By my records, they did.
RichHOST
Horse racing is going really, really well.
RichHOST
Of course, we've always got challenges, but we're in a great spot.
RichHOST
Bravo to the VRC, to Racing Victoria as well.
RichHOST
Marvellous to see.
John RothfieldHOST
There's a school going in there, and Melbourne were hoping to be part of it.
John RothfieldHOST
But depending on who you talk to, and I've spoken to people both at Melbourne and both at the Melbourne Racing Club and both at Racing Victoria and also at Racing Victoria, and the parties have been a long way apart for most of the last 12 to 18 months.
John RothfieldHOST
So it looks like that's dead in the water.
John RothfieldHOST
So where are they going next, Kevin? What about your joint? You've got a big backyard out there at...

GregHOST
So still going.
GregHOST
Yeah, well done to both jockey organisation, you know, AJC and the Victorian Racing once again do a great job.
GregHOST
And yeah, it's the one day, isn't it, today where everyone becomes a racing expert.
GrayHOST
Absolutely.
Adam PeacockHOST
Why does all of Nick Ryan's runners get pulled out, but only one wallahorse gets scratched when it was caught getting treated? None of Nick's were treated, the Ipswich Bulldog.
Adam PeacockHOST
Bulldog, Nick Ryan, the trainer here at Flemington, and I'm only going off what the Racing Victoria stewards have released by way of public statement.
Adam PeacockHOST
Nick Ryan was caught with an EPO in his glove box.
Adam PeacockHOST
Syringes in the glove box.
Damian BarrettHOST
contemplate it.
Damian BarrettHOST
Jason on X, do you have any insight as to why Racing Victoria declined to invite slash pay the racing blogger to cover this year's sprint carnival? I do.
Damian BarrettHOST
Sorry, no insight.
Damian BarrettHOST
It was an opinion.
Damian BarrettHOST
And I've never seen someone consume so many, quote, unbelievable steaks that he did last year when he was here.
Damian BarrettHOST
He had 58 unbelievable steaks.
Damian BarrettHOST
This is on Racing Victoria, which W's just passed me.
Damian BarrettHOST
He raced ATV to showcase a spring carnival, spring racing carnival to global audiences.
Ethan BrownSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And I woke up one morning and thought, jeez, I need to get back riding again.
ElijahHOST
Earlier, top trainer Chris Waller was fined $50,000 by Racing Victoria following the late scratching of his horse of Asterix prior to the Melbourne Cup.
ElijahHOST
Stewards found one of Waller's stable hands had administered the medication Penetrine to the runner's forelegs without permission.
ElijahHOST
Chief Steward Rob Montgomery explains the scratching.
John StanleyHOST
Is there? Well, no, there's not.
John StanleyHOST
There's Racing NSW and there's Racing Victoria, and they've been at each other's throats for a few years because of Peter Volandis, who's been elevating the Sydney races as opposition to the Melbourne races.
John StanleyHOST
So he's now gone to rugby league, so maybe there can be some resolution.
Rob McKnightGUEST
But he did his job.
