    • Wonder if I walked into the TAB and asked them for some BONUS CASH, BONUUS BETS AND BOOSTED ODDS, would they say Yes??? They really should , as this is what “ Out THE GATE” gets from Betcha! Thats right, keep forgetting, they are treated differently to other punters! Just an absolute joke the way they are running this OTG!!!  
    • BTW . Anyone can enter this quiz 👍 .  Not just Ranga as he will push for 'domination' if he gets a roll on.😂 See if you can head him off before he get's the whip cracking, and get some of the answers .  12 Great horses that we are looking for that are the Champions of New Zealand and Australia. clues above.  
    • Stop ducking and diving and answer the question , how are these 2 horses you've mentioned bargain buys at this present moment in time?
    • Why?  The first answer should be correct.  Otherwise what's the point?  Do you have to teach Google's AI to be accurate?  OR is it just telling you what it thinks you want as the answer?
