It’s been a tough year. This one meant a little more 🖤💚💛

Two bald eagles posted up over the track at sunrise… Nothing like getting your horses fit under direct oversight from the Department of Freedom. 🦅🇺🇸

Hey @DonaldTrump when you finish getting Greenland, can you swing by and pick New Zealand up too?! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

This was pretty cool people! 🤩 I just sat in the back of the race truck to get a birds eye view of the runners and riders with the race starter. Some proper Trotting action in New Zealand.

NZ First Introduces Bill to Ban Public Sales of Fireworks New Zealand First has today introduced a Member’s Bill that will ban the public sale and use of fireworks across New Zealand. The taxpayer should not be spending millions on something that drastically impacts pets, causes the inevitable fires, and causes havoc for our emergency services. Enough is enough. The abuse and misuse of fireworks has far outgrown any of the benefits. This is not about being ‘nanny state’, this is about bringing some common-sense into what is a desperately needed conversation about the future of fireworks in our community. Many major retailers have already stopped selling fireworks long ago, and there have been calls from across the country to put a stop to the sale of fireworks completely. The “Fireworks Prohibition Legislation Bill” will stop the retail sale, manufacture, and importation of fireworks for public use. It will still allow approved public displays to continue. This Bill is a response to what is a hugely predictable and preventable costs for ACC, the huge costs of emergency service call outs, and most importantly stopping the effects reckless use of fireworks has on farm animals and family pets. New Zealand has come to a point where we seriously need to have this conversation and debate.

It was a pleasure to meet the wonderful TOM PREBBLE and have a chat about his future. “I would love to stay a part of the industry that’s for sure, but I’m not home yet and I’m still taking everyday by day.” ❤️ 🙌 We’re raising money for Tom and his future health care below.

@ShaunPhelan3 @TracksideNZ How good was Te Aroha! 🙌🏻

@TracksideNZ Fair call

It was a great day of Gr.1 racing on Saturday, but George Simon thinks there was one ingredient missing. Read his column now: bit.ly/4nki6Ly

What a story it would be if Kelly Myers could win the International Jockeys' Challenge tomorrow night! The New Zealander had retired and only returned to racing in late 2023 #TheSaudiCup

@winstonpeters Hope you are planning on ending dog fighting too for animal welfare

Today I announced plans to end greyhound racing in New Zealand. It was not an easy decision, but it is the right thing to do and is driven by the need to protect the welfare of the dogs. The government is working with animal welfare organisations to ensure the dogs safety is a priority and are re-homed by August 2026.

@TracksideNZ @NiiColeySims @F1 Surprised you reached the pedals @NiiColeySims

@Rizzactor @POTUS Can’t wait for his reply

@POTUS What about Hunter ? Why isn’t he in jail?

Each of us is equal before the law. No one is above it – not even a president. With today’s Supreme Court decision on Presidential immunity, there are now virtually no limits on what a president can do. That is a new, dangerous precedent.
