    • well,just watching colonel douglas macgregor. Now i've quoted him at times and he has consistently been right with his precdictions all the way through.remember that when you read this,so far hes got everything right. and what hes currently predicting is going to  happen,will have serious repercussions even in nz. so hes saying, this one actually obvious so not hard to predict,is  trump will order the usa air force to have one final massive series of air strikes against iran starting next week,possbly monday. It will last 4 or 5 days .He said ,when trump said he wants iran obliterated into submission,he really does want iran obliterated. Will next weeks attacks achieve that.,he can't see why the result would be any different to what it is now,just more death and destruction.He does say he won't totally rule out iran may weaken their resolve,given the death and destruction trump will cause..  he believe trump is totally delusional,irrational,almost laughs when asked what trumps strategy is ,but then answers the question because its actually real.he just says he has and has never had a strategy.Still doesn't. now here is what he is saying iis virtually inevitable,which will impact us in nz. he says,the price of oil per barrel currently is nuts,ridiculously low, totally unrealistic.He believes theres a chance it will go close to $200 a barrel down the track.Even if the war ends,the supply chain has been so badly hit that trump has destroyed the global economy. Hes predicting the stock market,which just hit an all tiime high in the usa,must crash.He said its inevitable and is predicting a crash similar to 1928.He said it will happen in a few months for sure. he said ,what the media won't tell you,is why the treasury secretary in the usa,scott bessent, had a meeting with all the heads of the usa oil companies last week. He said it was  because the usa simply can't keep exporting, .they simply don't have the refining capacity to keep exporting as usa consumers will run  out themselves if they do...The talks were about preparing for rationing in the months ahead. he says he expects,because of the supply chain being so badly impacted,a global recession will become like a depression type thing,citing japan and other allies of the usa as being most badly effected. he descirbes what trumps done as global suicide. he says,they can't keep covvering up just how bad things are.All will be reveled in the next 3 months. he said the american blockade of the strait of hormuz will continue for some time.But down the track the usa is just going to have only one option and that is to up and leave and go home with their tails between their legs and israel will be vunerable when that happens. he also said,trump made a billion in his own personal wealth in the first year in office. he said,sadly it appears jd vance is also a puppet of israel,even though he may not want to be. Hey they all are that are in politics over there. so as our mate ,private frazer from dads army used to say,we're all doomed,doomed ,. well,maybe not that bad,but tougher times are ahead and an industry like the racing industry will be impacted .  
    • Chuppy (Le Havre), the dam of this year's G1 Prix du Jockey Club and G1 Coral-Eclipse hero Constitution River (Wootton Bassett), will be offered in foal to Lope De Vega at the Arqana Vente d'Elevage, which takes place from Saturday, December 5 to Tuesday, December 8. Consigned by Haras du Cadran, Chuppy is a full-sister to the G1 Prix de Royallieu and G1 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes winner Wonderful Tonight, while her other siblings include the Forever Together Stakes scorer Penjade (Air Chief Marshall) and G3 Prix Cleopatre third Heartache Tonight (Recorder). Constitution River, last seen finishing third in the G1 Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown, is the first foal out of Chuppy, who is also responsible for the two-year-old Sensational Filly (Mehmas), an encouraging third when making her debut at Dundalk last month. Her yearling filly by Kodiac was bought by David Redvers for €430,000 at the Arqana August Sale. Haras du Cadran's Pierre Talvard said of Chuppy, “She's a stunning mare, without doubt the most beautiful that we have at the stud. She is extremely easy and is never a problem. Her first foal is an exceptional horse, while her second foal made a very promising debut and should improve a lot for that. Her yearling is a beautiful filly that is set to go to a top calibre trainer. “By crossing Chuppy with Lope De Vega, we wanted to continue what has guided us and served us well since the beginning: adding speed to a mare that has a pedigree that is distinguished by its stamina. Lope De Vega possesses this speed as well as the consistency that characterises great stallions.” The full catalogue for the Vente d'Elevage will be available on the Arqana website from Monday, October 19.

    • Such a lucky dip with what odds you'll get. Still lots of $1 divs. Pools double or more from mobile pulling away to final divs on Oz races. Unavoidable unless pools are real big I guess. Oz presenters and callers going hard on telling you one pool odds. Told to I guess. Ours not so much. Maybe told not to but if TAB staff don't know what it is and whether we're commingled or not, can't expect too much. You'd think in 2026 with all these super computers they could get the pools to update more quickly. A disappointment so far
    • They paid some marketing mob bucket loads to come up with it!
