    • I actually added  up the tote figures for the Auckland Cup, $61000, plus if you add the Quaddie and the treble in it reached $100000, win pool $11600, when the win and place on small fields is poor it can be redirected to the exotics,  Omakaus main race I think topped  20 grand, win pool and there was a race at Cromwell, not the main one on Tuesday topped 16, I think that was just after 5 so some finishing work mau have had a wager, sometimes timing is everything. Just out of curiosity can you bet on fixed odds on course or is that reserved for website punters only, the tote odds will always be displayed on the on course monitors, but fixed odds change all the time so what you might want you might not get if you stand in a que.
    • Yes, that was sort of part of my point following your remarks about AI.
    • Not sure why he didn’t go forward with Akuta.  If he’d come off the gate he would have led or trailed IMO. 
    • I appreciate that it is not politically correct, but seriously? How have they all got to be so large? Terrible image for racing!    
    • belle neige i thought had its chance forbury. i had a small win bet on it and wasn't disapponited in the drive. I also had a small bet on jasinova in an earlier race ,driven by hackett and thought that was a poor tactical drive,but thats the norm up there from most of the drivers. You watch nelson races and you can understand each drivers tactics. Up there,its the opposite. So many of the races are just follow them around type races and wait for next week. tonight just the same.  that race merlin just won. Punters again showed they have little interest in particpating in small uncompetitive races like that.And that is supposedly their best product.Very sad really. The tote turnover on that race,even with the advantage of what is normally a prime betting time,was worse than even  the 6 horse non win trot at nelson.It was such a bore of a race as well. Punters see it that much that they just turn off the north island product.. i read recently on the hrnz website the betting person at hrnz,mr peden said the northern initaive that hrnz has invested so heavily in is paying dividends. He used a one off increase in turnover on the recent cambridge meeting where betting was up 23%.,although even he noted they had 20% more races that day.That bloke talks more bullshit than anyone i've ever read. They haven't mentioned the Auckland cup betting since on hrnz website.you can  guarante they haven't,because it would prove what i just said about what mr peden says. why do they cherry pick and mislead to justify their decision making.Its really just rather sad.
