    • If you blokes are having a look tonight at these youngsters race tonight  Herbie should nearly win All 3 Heats tonight again.🤔(  or some Quinellas with jett turnbull ) The first race tonight (Heat 7 at 7.52 NZ time ) the Bettor's Delight mare WORKS FOR ME has good NSW trainer , who isn't that good a driver, so was getting it beaten. Will improve heaps with James driving it. HEAT 8  is Race 3 tonight . Herbie drives the number one.  The trainer Chris Watson is another ex-pat NZer , whose son Damon usually drives the horses. they have 2 in here this race. Chris usual race colours are black with a silver fern too like the All blacks. so a sort of win for NZ if it salutes !  can't work out Why this horse JUST ROLLING AROUND is so short in the market though.??  but might just be because Herbie is driving it . it does have 3 Redcliffe wins I spose. HEAT 9. is race 5. Herbie on the former top Western Australia trainer Michael Brennan's horse SABALA.  Ran no-where at Addington in April for Jonny Cox, but was too good here first up. Cake-walk this in .  The James Herbertson Treble is 14-1 odds . so might be worth a fiver? to get some week-end money 💰🍻
    • Yes no doubt the very top drivers are able to do this on unfamiliar horses even. These would be Blair Orange and James Herbertson currently.  the top of the 2 nations in wins.  Others that are fully grade One would be Cam Hart and Pete McMullen. possibly Zac Butcher ? possibly John Dunn ?  what do you/people  think of them? happy to it on your horse ? Chris Alford (Vic) and is in his twilight years but still is solid , but like Tony Herlihy and Maurice McKendry and Ricky May you might be looking to the slightly younger brigade to be the more dominant now.  Grant Dixon, Luke McCarthy, Natalie Rasmussen,  even Mark Purdon himself rarely take/took outside drives , so are in a A grade class of their own .  they are/ were Busy with Training for Results . and 100% successful with it.  Wilson, Crystal, Carter and co in the younger brigade are just super. keen and enthusiastic.  quite a few drivers in each State are doing fine like them too. Callaghan and Gallagher in NSW , Garrard in QLD especially The driving standard is Good as ever I reckon. they getting the horses to go faster than ever to go with it. 
    • yes i think your spot on when you say the bits you've highlighted are important in the success rate of the big stables. as to the m house stable you mention.  I always get the impression the likes of w house or h orange,who drive their horses at manawatu drive to achieve the best result for the one they are driving.Sure,w house may have a bit of inside knowledge about all the stable runners,but i think hes always focussing on the horse he drives.
    • If bèt on your colour's  couple  weeks ago would cleaned up
    • i hope he enjoys celebrating when he does clean up on the punt,so as to make up for the times when hes frustrated.Someone with so much passion,is that the right word,mmm,you would think has a few highs as well as lows. perhaps,for a bit of balance, he could post  on here when hes having a good day ,about who or what he is smiling about on those days.
