race 5 at hawera today. You had to feel sorry for the horse becker. shortly after the start it appears the horse(i'm all in-k coppins), drawn to its outside is allowed to drift in slightly and its back leg makes contact with beckers sulky,causing i'm all in to gallop,then that horse runs in when in a gallop and then this time its front leg makes significant contact with beckers sulky catipulting the driver of becker out of the sulky and giving her little option but to let go . so becker starts off running around after the 3 horses in front of it as another 3 behind it chase just behind it. but waits theres more. down the back straight the horse nearest to becker driven by j dunn jnr, wisely takes the option of giving the driverless becker a wide berth when close to becker,but then n delany on a following horse seemed to think its a good idea to pocket becker in close to the track markers.So delany improves to ahead of becker and starts running in on him. so as delany does that, you get this line of 4 horses,the widest being driven by c hackett who had galloped at the start. The c hackett seems to be unhappy about running wider due to the driverless horse, so she angles her horse in,dictating j dunns line who in turn has no option but to dictate n delanys line,as hes inside him. now, of course,you could see what was going to happen as this unfolded. whats going to happen to poor old becker,who's still inside n delany as delany was trying to,well i'm not sure to be honest. what does happen.Becker gets forced over the markers ,tries to avoid them but has nowhere to go as hackett and delany are both electing to cut him off,and becker frantically tries to stay on his feet, but eventually falls and makes slight contact with delany on the way down. personally i felt quite sorry for the horse as none of it was his fault. there were some very unusual driving tactics in that race ,thats for sure. my guess though is the stipes report will say,no driver was to blame,even though there was. -
Plenty of money to see Ed Sheeran Lorde and the likes.Jimmy Carr sold well, he ain't doing anything for nothing and that's just after Xmas and all that nonsense, I shouldn't talk though the TAB got my 150 bucks for my Xmas splashout but it took them a lot longer this time than normal lol. -

How did they have Leap To Fame 1.50 vs 2.20 Kingman at Shepparton when Kingman had sat outside him and beat him over distance in their previous two clashes with worse draws and had the better draw this time. I thought the 2.20 was a gift. -

Many y New Zealanders are starting the year feeling stressed about money despite interest rates having fallen, one bank says. Westpac surveyed just over 1000 of its customers and found 28 percent said their holiday spending would probably or definitely cause financial stress in the new year. Another 23 percent thought it might. Just under 20 percent said they planned to use debt to cover their costs. Just under three-quarters said they were very or moderately concerned about the cost of living. Westpac managing director of product sustainability and marketing Sarah Hearn said there had been an increase in the number of people applying for debt consolidation loans as well as increases in the amounts they were asking for. "While we have seen a reduction in interest rates over the last year it's clear that people and our customers are still feel very much the cost of living and the pressure of finances is present still. "At this time of the year, though, we would tend to see in the coming months more debt consolidation going on as people look to kind of get their finances in order and simplify the debt that they may have into the one." Almost a quarter said additional costs in January and February added pressure, including annual bills and the cost of sending kids back to school. "A really high portion of people said that they'd be expecting more financial pressure at this time of the year. "One in four people pointed out that it's the annual bills that would be coming through, life insurance and paying off summer holidays, but it's also the additional expenses like children going back to school. paying off the summer holiday. So some of those incidental expenses that you typically see more in January, school uniforms, books, laptops, all those sorts of things, there's a real spike. So that puts additional pressure on top of what is already a cost of living pressure that people are feeling." Hearn said people were sometimes consolidating by now pay later debt, or credit card and personal loans. If the problem was bigger than debt consolidation could fix, she said people should speak to their banks to work out what options could be available. Loan Market mortgage adviser Bruce Patten said he was dealing with more people who wanted to top-up their mortgages to clear other debt. "With the current market conditions there are a lot of people getting top ups to consolidate debt due to the cost of living pressures, so car or boat finance is being extended over a longer period under mortgages to provide some relief." This can mean lower repayments in the short term but cost more overall if the loan term is extended and people end up carrying the debt for longer. https://www.odt.co.nz/news/national/finding-missing-tramper-involved-huge-amount-luck-rnz -
