    • as you know, i'm an absolute moron as often bet on the NZ Cup futures market , in my multi's.  The TAB has to have a market for it because how could they possibly list the race with out putting odds there with it ? the TAB are all for Betting . that's what they do. If you just want a list of possible candidates then you could just go to the HRNZ website and find the field of nominations I spose.  Betting is just a bit of fun . None of the blokes here (or that would BET into a future market ) need the money. Brodie wants to put 1000 on some obscure horses in the bush , so why not have a heap of Punters investing on future markets for a bit of fun ( risking just a few dollars )???  I had AKUTA running for 9000 win 2 years ago, made up of $300 of multi's I had taken during the year with Imperatriz and assorted other fine horses. Swayzee blasted my tickets to confetti, but I didn't feel like an absolute moron.  lol. just one of those things. I lost about $30 worth of bets on Leap To Fame last year . Didn't turn up as got sick in the end. who cares. It's just a bit of interest in the race mateys . I've taken a few in the DOMINION trot already . as Like some of the trotters. OscarB at 7's and that in some multi;'s, etc. If he doesn't win , at least he's sure to give me a run for my money. The Brownlow Medal was announced in Australia recently for the AFL . I take a few players with a few bucks for FUN each year. Before and during the season in Future Markets. The winner Matt Rowell started $12 on the day but I had some tickets on him ( as is a great Gold Coast player) at the beginning of season (6 months from event) at 20-1 so collected a couple of hundred. Future Markets are great for an Interest in the sport , and tracking your Bets progress. It's ALL FUN.  sorry for me being an 'absolute moron' 😧🙄. probably wasn't trained well enough lol 😎 
    • Why are the Stipes constantly in the sights as the problem here. ? Allowing abuse and cheating ? why not the horses Owners and Trainers ? they are employing a jockey on race-day to get the best out of their steed, and if all the casual observers of a race on the sidelines like on forums , are speaking out about  and spotting this so-called 'abuse and cheating' then why are the owners and trainers Allowing these jockeys to drive their pride and joy horse home in a race finish ? .  If things are that bad with alleged 'abuse' surely the On the Spot participants of owners and trainers would be standing up to protect their horse (and not condone cheating ) ??  and remove this said cheat ?  Stipes are employed to keep racing fair and safe. NZ racing has had a lot of accidents in recent years with jockeys 'changing lanes' when not clear of rivals and all sorts of things .there's a lot to think about in most races. they're very competitive lol.  Perhaps they need some help from other participants who are actually PART of the Horses connections to say something ? to help avoid all this cheating ? funny footnote: I lost the drive on a regular horse once because the owners decided I didn't drive it hard enough with the whip and was running 3rds when could of been running 2nd etc. I laugh thinking about it now. reading all the whip complaints lol 😎😁

    • Looked a the thoroughbred version, thought the odds were very poor, unless you were planning on taking those that won't even get a start, I'm sure the odds on the tote be better on the day, they'll have to be much more brave to temp me.
