We've had a number of syndication company founders on the podcast over recent years, all sharing stories about their childhood passion for racing. James Moss is no different. His interest in the sport was ignited by trips to the track with his father and grandfather. Further motivated by the deeds of champion mare Sunline, James was completely “hooked” by the time he reached early twenties. Family and friends were not surprised when he launched Tricolours Racing and Syndications in 2016. We talk to James about his subsequent journey. He responds to a high compliment afforded him by one of the company's trainers. He talks of a return to equities trading once the company was up and running. James talks of the family who've supported him every step of the way. The syndicator remembers his late father Jack whose love of the Roosters NRL team inspired the company name and racing colours. James remembers early days at the track and his fascination with the mighty Kiwi mare Sunline. He pays tribute to a couple of his favourite jockeys from the era. James agrees the choice of his second favourite horse might raise an eyebrow or two. The forty six year old talks about his career in the field of equities trading. He acknowledges the input of his business partner Paul King and communications and administration assistant Maryanne Sayers. James remembers the purchase of his very first yearling, an Uncle Mo filly for $50,000 at the 2017 Karaka Sales. Trainer John Sargent was there with him. The Tricolours founder summarises the purchase and subsequent deeds of the company's best performers to date. James says he doesn't set out to buy fillies but agrees it probably looks that way. He talks about recent winners Manuscript, The Novelist and The Playwright two geldings and one filly all sired by Written By. James elaborates on the potential of promising two year olds Autumn Blonde and Artistic Venture. He talks about his determination to buy at the right price. Syndication has become a very important component in the burgeoning Australian racing industry. Great to chat with one of its most professional operators.

Larry Cassidy's sheer consistency as a professional jockey has brought him a strong fan base over almost four decades in the saddle. It's now more than four months since Larry rode in a race, and the fans are getting restless.The ace jockey joins us on the podcast to talk about the litany of health issues and injuries he's battled in recent years. He begins by talking about the track fall that left him with a badly broken finger last November. The complications have been endless. Larry takes us back to April of 2023 when he felt a twinge in his back during the running of a race. He battled on for a while but eventually the pain from a bulging disc made surgery inevitable. He was back at the races much sooner than expected. He'd had only twelve rides back when a trackwork accident sent him out again. This time Doctors performed an epidural and ordered another long rest. Larry says he thought he'd used up all of his bad luck when he finally resumed last November. Lady Luck wasn't done with him yet. The jockey was in reminiscent mood as he talked about early life in Wellington NZ. He looks back on the talents of brother Ricky who made a big name for himself as a jumps jockey. Larry talks of his first apprenticeship at Palmerston North and remembers his first ever race ride. Like most jockeys his first win remains etched in his memory. He talks of a transfer to former jockey Bruce Marsh at Woodville. Here his career took off. Larry fondly remembers a trip to Australia with Marsh who campaigned a small team of horses in Brisbane. This is where he rode his first Aussie winner. He recalls being involved in a five horse fall at Randwick during the same trip. The respected jockey looks back on a flying start when he finally settled in Sydney. Brother Jim recommended him for a prized ride. Larry pays tribute to Jim Cassidy. His comments will surprise you. With the Championships upon us it was a good time to talk about Larry's big Easter double in 1997- the Doncaster on Secret Savings and the Sydney Cup on Linesman, He speaks fondly of Linesman and recalls the gelding's huge run in the 1997 Melbourne Cup when battling a foot issue. Larry looks back on many rides in the Melbourne Cup without a win. A third and a fourth were his best results. The jockey clearly remembers a Victoria Derby win on Arena for the Inghams. Larry acknowledges a number of outstanding gallopers he got to ride during his years in Sydney. Obviously he spends extra time on Sunline. He looks back on Darren Beadman's shock retirement in 1997 and his promotion to the number one role at Crown Lodge. He says he was never officially appointed. It just happened. Larry talks of his three jockey's premierships and his relationship with John Hawkes. Cassidy remembers a new association with Gai Waterhouse after the parting of the ways with Crown Lodge. He explains his reasons for electing to make the move to Brisbane in 2009. He talks of a Queensland Derby win not long after relocating. His recollections of his one and only ride on Winx make for good listening. He couldn't believe what he'd just experienced. Larry talks of a nightmare eighteen months with meniscal tearing in both knees. He eventually took his rehabilitation into his own hands. He pays tribute to wife Michelle and children Luke and Jade. Luke is on his way as a Doctor Of Medicine while Jade has aspirations in the arts, but is currently working for the wonderful organisation Guide Dogs Queensland. Larry is taking a realistic view of the future. He'd love to ride again, but hasn't dismissed the possibility of an enforced retirement. It's a laid back chat with an outstanding jockey who's made a million friends along the way.

I first met Tony Lee when I had the honour to be guest commentator at the 1996 Wellington Cup meeting. In preparing to call a couple of races on the big programme, I received every possible courtesy from the NZ ace. Tony went out of his way to help me through a plethora of strange colours and horse names. I tuned in to hear his description of the recent Wellington Cup won by Mary Louise- his broadcasting swan song after four decades of wonderful service to NZ racing. I called Tony a few days after his Trentham send off to record this tribute to a man whose race calls whetted the appetites of generations of racing fans. He recalls the warmth of the farewell afforded him by the racing industry. Tony says his last Wellington Cup was a tricky race to call. He pays tribute to trainer Robbie Paterson and jockey Craig Grylls who bagged a Gr 1 double on the day. The veteran caller outlines the reasons for his surprise retirement. Tony reminisces about the 1996 Wellington Cup meeting when he and I worked together for the first and only time. The 65 year old looks back on childhood days on the family farm at Rongotea near Palmerston North. He says his late brother Craig was the one to introduce him to horse racing. Tony goes back to early days as a sound recordist with a local news crew. He says he loved the buzz of the media world. He talks of his admiration for the late Peter Kelly, New Zealand's favourite race caller of the day. Tony looks back on his race calling debut at the Hutt Park trots. Lee became famous for the passion he generated in his race descriptions. He talks about the development of his style. Tony talks about Castletown's third Wellington Cup win in 1994. The words he used in the closing stages of his call are still repeated by racing fans of all ages. He pays tribute to the remarkable two miler Castletown, one of the country's greatest ever stayers. The ace commentator talks of Xcellent's memorable win in the 2005 Mudgway Stakes, and the call that people still talk about. Horse lover Lee says he fell in love with Starcraft the moment he first saw him in the Hastings parade yard before the 2004 Mudgway Stakes. Tony talks of his affection for the Hastings track and runs through some of the other racecourses in the Central Districts. Regrettably he saw little of northern trained Sunline, but he did get to call her final race in NZ- the 2002 Mudgway Stakes. He says local fans gave her an unforgettable send off. Tony acknowledges the deeds of a handful of other special horses. He talks of the 2012 disagreement with TAB Trackside which saw him walk away from his plum role. Eager to test the water out of NZ he spent two years with the Selangor Turf Club in Malaysia. He enjoyed the experience. Tony recalls the twist of fate that would send him back to his old job. He pays tribute to some of the NZ trainers he's admired over the years. In talking about jockeys he relates a funny story about the day at Otaki when he and trainer Alexander Fieldes put on an exhibition gallop. Tony talks about a business venture outside of racing. He and wife Briar run the Trax Bar and Cafe at Wellington railway station. It's a laid back trip down memory lane with a man who's been a great friend to NZ racing.
Larry Cassidy may not ride again!! The popular Kiwi jockey, who has ridden champion gallopers Sunline, Winx and Lonhro, says remarkably a recent finger injury may stop him from riding again.
This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette Digital News Desk, and I'm here with your update for November 14, 2023.It will be increasingly cloudy and warmer on Tuesday. According to the National Weather Service there will be a high near 67 degrees in the Cedar Rapids area. The low will come in around 43 degrees.Police released the identities of the two pedestrians hit by a car Sunday as they were crossing Memorial Drive SE in Cedar RapidsBonnie Stover was killed Sunday afternoon just outside of her home by a driver police say was drunk and fled the scene. Shawn Stover, her husband of 35 years, was also hit in the roadway and was hospitalized for his injuries.Members of the Stover family told the Gazette that Bonnie Stover worked at Linn Area Credit Union and volunteered at various organizations throughout Cedar Rapids“She does not deserve this. She seriously was like a saint. I've always said that she was like a saint on this earth. She was the nicest person,” said Molly Stover, one of her daughters. Police said the crash was caught on video surveillance and they were able to identify the sport utility vehicle involved. Investigators found it parked about a mile away, at the home of Kyle Kubite, 45, of 2232 Pine Ave. SE.Kubite was arrested on counts of vehicular homicide while intoxicated, leaving the scene of a personal injury accident and leaving the scene of a fatality accident. He remained Monday in the Linn County Jail.Local auto salvage company Sunline has cleaned out its property on Sixth Street SW and moved hundreds of cars onto the Hawkeye Downs parking lot, making way for the old property's sale to Copart, an insurance auto auction.Roger Cassill, owner of both Hawkeye Downs and Sunline, said Monday he sold the old 40-acre Sunline property at 4400 Sixth St. SW to Copart to be one of its major locations in the Midwest. Copart currently has Iowa locations in Des Moines and Davenport. The sale closed Oct. 31, Cassill said, after the process started about a year ago.The rezoning took place as Hawkeye Downs looked to refresh its property and explore new ways to draw residents and visitors to the racetrack. It has received thousands of dollars from the city over the years through hotel-motel tax funds the city reaps from overnight guests — for instance, $35,000 last November.The city also in 2022 awarded the organization $50,000 in federal American Rescue Plan Act funds as part of money given to nonprofits to support recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.Cassill said there are plans going through the architectural stages for the front side of Hawkeye Downs, on the northeast side of the property. There are plans to develop the land with multiple buildings and a new expo center “to dress that up,” he said.
Jerome Hunter joins Big V Racing to discuss the chances of Barb Raider in tonight's Sunline Stakes at The Valley
It's fair to say that Sunline's constant companion Claire Bird became almost as well known as the great mare herself. The petite blonde accompanied Sunline on one trip to Dubai, twice to Hong Kong and nine times to Australia. She endeared herself to racing administrators and to the media at large. When Sunline left the racing scene Claire opted for a future in Australia. She has capably filled several roles in the racing industry and media, and is currently enjoying her time on the Tony Gollan administrative team. She says she quickly put her hand up when the job became available. Claire talks of a work schedule which includes a supervisory role with Gollan's Gold Coast Saturday runners. She acknowledges partner, former successful Kiwi trainer Shane Marr. Claire reviews the interesting jobs she's held since settling in Australia twenty years ago- Her employers include Racing Victoria, TVN television, Nine Network, Gerry Harvey Racing Management, a horse transport company and most recently Tony Gollan Racing. She takes us back to childhood days in Palmerston North and speaks affectionately of her parents and siblings. Claire says she wasn't attracted to normal horse pursuits like pony club or the show ring. She went straight into Malcolm Smith's Awapuni racing stables. She talks of her tuition in riding trackwork. One of her advisers was a jockey who'd made a name for himself in Australia. The horse loving Bird talks of the only job she ever had that didn't involve horses. Claire says her job with the Trevor McKee stable was the result of a chance golf course conversation between her stepfather and McKee's son Steve. She recalls two stabling barns on the McKee property. Sunline was originally housed in the barn reserved for problem horses. When her ability came to light she was quickly moved across the road. Claire formed an attachment to the quirky mare. Claire talks of the great mare's fashionable pedigree and her early career at home. She recalls Sunline's very first trip to Sydney and the impact the filly had on crowds and media. Claire talks of the special wins that still reduce her to tears. She speaks highly of jockey Greg Childs who won 11 Gr 1's on the champion. She recalls the bittersweet experience of Sunline's trip to the United Arab Emirates for the Duty Free Stakes. Immediately after the race she was deeply upset by persistent rumours of Sunline's sale to new owners. Much has been written about Sunline's unpleasant disposition. Claire talks of her experiences with the strong willed thoroughbred. Claire talks of the numerous honours accorded the remarkable Kiwi mare. She looks back on the occasion of Sunline's racetrack swansong in the 2002 Cox Plate. She promised family and friends she would refrain from crying. Claire talks of Sunline's unspectacular stud career, and her battle with laminitis. She recalls the fateful phone call from Steve McKee bringing her the news she'd been dreading. This isn't the first time Claire has been asked to compare her champion with the great Aussie mare Winx. A wonderful trip down memory lane with the lady who knew Sunline better than anyone else.
Understandably Robbie Fradd is going through a tough period of adjustment as he comes to terms with the reality of an enforced retirement. The champion international jockey has been grounded by specialists after recently undergoing major heart bypass surgery. Rob intends to stay in Brisbane where he's been riding for close to nine years. He talks about the shortage of breath and fatigue which warned him of impending trouble. Rob admits to a nicotine addiction throughout his riding career, but says it was largely to keep his mind off food. The former outstanding jockey takes us back to his childhood in Durban, and his non racing family. He talks of a five year stay at the famous South African Jockeys Academy which launched the careers of some world class jockeys. Robbie talks of his apprenticeship to trainer Vaughan Marshall who had a significant impact on his life. He recalls with affection his very first win on Barberton for trainer Jacky Gorton. The retired jockey talks of the importance to racing participants of a race called The Durban July. He was fortunate enough to win it twice, although the first one was by default. Robbie's second win in the great race was on Dynasty, a horse he rates among the best he's ever ridden. He recalls his 1996 success in another famous race the J&B Met in Cape Town. Rob talks of his many trips to Hong Kong and his memorable association with the champion Fairy King Prawn. He talks in particular of a Gr 1 win in Japan, and his unforgettable duel with Sunline in the 2000 HK Mile. He looks back on wins in the HK Derby, the Chairman's Mile and three Stewards Cups all at Gr 1 level. Robbie speaks of his elation when he won a HK jockeys premiership against some formidable opposition. He looks back on a flying visit to Singapore which brought him a Derby winner and an eventual full time contract with leading trainer Patrick Shaw, an expatriate South African. You can hear the admiration in Rob's voice as he talks about the great horse Rocket Man who won 20 races from 27 starts. The jockey won three Lion City Cups on the brilliant galloper. Fradd was 50 years old when he arrived in Brisbane in 2014, motivated by the spectacular success of countryman Jeff Lloyd. He recalls the support he received from Brisbane and Gold Coast trainers. He acknowledges his only Queensland Gr 1 win on Tyzone in the Stradbroke. He talks of daughters Alexa and Madison and nine year old son Liam. He admits his wife Natalie has to get used to his being around more than usual. At 58 he was coming to the end of a great career, but he's disappointed he wasn't able to go out on his own terms. This is a nice yarn with a jockey who loved every moment of his four decades in the saddle.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Thursday, January 26.Thursday could start with a bit more snow before heading toward a mostly sunny day. According to the National Weather Service there could be a 30 percent chance of snow before 7 a.m. in the Cedar Rapids area. It is predicted to be cloudy to start before gradually becoming sunny.

The low will bottom out at 9 degrees.A Linn County jury Wednesday convicted Alexander Jackson and he faces three life sentences without the possibility of parole for what a prosecutor called the “execution” of his father, mother and 19-year-old sister in 2021.Jackson, 22, was found guilty of three counts of first-degree murder. He stood accused of shooting his father Jan Jackson, 61, mother Melissa Jackson, 68, and sister Sabrina, 19, in their northeast Cedar Rapids home on June 15, 2021.He showed no reaction when the verdict was read and his lawyers attempted to shield him from television and still cameras in the courtroom. When deputies handcuffed him and led him out of the courtroom, he seemed to tear up.The jury deliberated about five and a half hours over Tuesday and Wednesday.Sentencing is set for March 3 in Linn County District Court.As Hawkeye Downs looks to refresh its property and find new ways to draw residents and visitors to the racetrack amid financial woes, the nine-member Cedar Rapids City Council was split but ultimately advanced a rezoning to make way for a salvage yard on the property.Roger Cassill, the owner of Sunline — an auto salvage company — and Hawkeye Downs, requested rezoning the approximately 94-acre property at 4400 Sixth St. SW from light industrial to general industrial district.Proposed rezoning would keep the car racing center, convention hall and storage on much of the property and add a salvage yard to the northeast nine acres. Sunline would be relocated from offsite to this property.The intention when purchasing the salvage yard more than a year ago was to clean it up and turn it into a late-model facility instead of a site for old junk cars, Cassill said.A case of avian influenza has been confirmed at a commercial turkey flock in Buena Vista County, the state agriculture department reported Wednesday.It is the first confirmed case of 2023.The state confirmed 30 cases of the bird flu in 2022, including 12 in March and seven in December.

He begins by outlining his current role as a manufacturer and distributor of equine safety vests. Greg takes us back to his apprenticeship at Hawera on the North Island, and pays tribute to the first top horse he got to ride. He also makes mention of another “gun” apprentice who was rising rapidly through the ranks. He talks of his first trip overseas at the invitation of an American friend. He rode 7 winners in a short time and competed on some iconic race tracks. Greg recalls his very first trip to Melbourne with trainers Ray Verner and Peter Hurdle. He ran third in the 1990 Melbourne Cup which really whetted his appetite for Australian racing. The former champion jockey reminisces about the horses and horsemen who got him started in a new country. It was a three months trial period. He never returned to NZ. Greg talks of a Hong Kong win on the top mare Romanee Conti, and his first Melbourne premiership win- a performance that earned him a special accolade.

“Electric technology should be part of the strategy of every transit agency.” – Ryan Popple Recently, there’s a great emphasis on lowering emissions and using clean energy. In the past, public transit did that with hybrid-electric vehicles. While many agencies primarily still operate diesel fleets, with a smattering of electric in the mix, new fuels and propulsion systems are rapidly entering the market, pushing transit toward zero-emission buses. In this special mobility innovations episode, you’ll get to hear from some of the leading experts of alternative fuel options within public transit. Discover the jumps Proterra has made in electric vehicle technology over the years. Learn about hydrogen fuel and the amazing work SunLine Transit is doing – going so far as creating hydrogen fuel. Finally, you’ll hear about (Dallas) DART’s progression into using compressed natural gas (CNG). Check out Proterra, SunLine, or DART if you want to learn more.

In part 2 the legendary trainer pays tribute to his all time favourite Emancipation, winner of 19 races. He draws comparisons with Sunline and Winx. Neville has good things to say about Dalmacia, a horse he was offered over the birdcage fence at a race meeting. He looks back on his Golden Slipper win with Dark Eclipse in 1980 with his former apprentice Kevin Moses in the saddle. Neville looks back on a 20 year association with Ron Quinton. They were one of the strongest combinations ever seen in Sydney racing. He talks of Veloso and Best Western, the two that got away. He trained them both early in their careers, but lost them to other trainers after ownership changes. Neville concludes with reflections of his training years in Hong Kong. He returned to Australia in 1996 and never trained again.
