Lol been watching the show tonight and seriously it is not a great look. The presenters are really acting like clowns, high fiving, rubbing screens and stalking around the studio lol. They have just had a $18k return which is a good return but put it into perspective when you look at what the TAB allows them to wager, whereas other punters are restricted to miserly amounts? It is great that they think they are helping the industry attract punters but if any individual punter was allowed to wager like they do on BOAY, you would be called a compulsive gambler. They are only winning off backing greyhounds which is not hard being allowed to wager unlimited amounts. Even if the pool goes to $40k then you are only doubling your money, so wouldnt consider it that great? anyway it is what it is!! -

Mark Newnham will look to hit back in the trainers’ championship at Sha Tin on Sunday with a strong squad of seven, including the likes of All Out For Six, Talents Ambition and Super Unicorn. The Australian handler has led much of this season’s premiership, but a recent purple patch from Caspar Fownes has seen him surge five clear of David Hayes and six clear of Newnham. The race is by no means over, however, with three months and many opportunities left for Newnham to strike back in a...View the full article -

Wet weather is forecast ahead of racing at Tauranga on Saturday but Donna Logan is hoping the worst of it stays away. The South Auckland trainer is set to take half a dozen runners to the Bay of Plenty meeting, including her exciting Group Three performer Yokozuna (Fierce Impact), who will resume in the J Swap Contractors 3YO 1200. “I am looking forward to seeing him back,” Logan said. “I am hoping there is not too much rain because I am uncertain about how much rain he can handle.” The son of Fierce Impact has had just the two starts to date, winning on debut as a late juvenile at Ruakaka last July before finishing runner-up to the well-performed filly Tajana (NZ) (Darci Brahma) in the Gr.3 Northland Breeders’ Stakes (1200m) at the Northland venue a month later. He has subsequently been given time to mature and Logan is pleased with the way he is coming up, having won his lead in trial over 1000m at Tauranga last month. “He has been off the scene for quite some time,” Logan said. “He has strengthened up a lot, is growing physically and I look forward to seeing what he can produce for us. “He probably wasn’t a two-year-old when you see how he has matured now, so that was pretty encouraging that he did what he did as a young horse. “Our apprentice, Tom Wigram, rode him (in his trial last month) and I thought it was a nice effort. He was probably a bit further forward than I had anticipated in his prep, so I was quite happy with him.” Logan said she has no set plans for Yokozuna and said his performance this weekend will dictate his next steps. “We are going to have to be guided by how he performs and how the weather treats us,” she said. Of her remaining runners, Logan is particularly looking forward to lining up Unwritten (NZ) (Telperion) and Syracuse (NZ) (Swiss Ace) in the Craigs Investment Partners 1400. The pair were unplaced over a mile at Te Aroha last week and Logan has elected to drop them back in distance this weekend. “I thought Unwritten would have won another one by now, but Opie (Bosson, jockey) said she didn’t get the mile,” Logan said. She and Syracuse are having a quick backup. They raced at Te Aroha and they really didn’t let down on the track conditions that day. “I am hoping back to 1400m we see a bit more. Syracuse has won at Tauranga so let’s see what she can perform like back there over 1400m.” Meanwhile, Logan’s Group Two performed two-year-old Parfait Dimanche (Anders) has returned to breeder and part-owner Tony Rider’s Milan Park for a spell following her unplaced run in the Gr.1 Sistema Stakes (1200m) last Saturday. That run concluded a pleasing juvenile season that netted placings in the Gr.2 Eclipse Stakes (1200m) and Gr.3 Colin Jillings 2YO Classic (1200m), and Logan is looking forward to her returning to the barn ahead of her three-year-old campaign. “She pulled up a treat (after the Sistema),” Logan said. “We have sent her home for a well-deserved spell. She will strengthen up and I am sure she will come back better and stronger as a three-year-old.” View the full article -

Stephen Ralph is more than happy to stick with a winning combination in his pursuit of a maiden stakes victory on Saturday for the in-form Leroy Brown (NZ) (Ace High). The Te Awamutu trainer has rewarded apprentice Jack Taplin for his performance aboard the five-year-old last time out with the ride on the freegoer in the Gr.2 Ultimate Mazda Japan Trophy (1600m) at Tauranga. They combined to run their rivals ragged in an open handicap over a mile and Ralph will be hoping for more of the same from the duo at the weekend. “I said to Jack at Matamata that you should be able to lead and it was a 10 out of 10 ride, it was absolutely perfect,” Ralph said. “We like to form a relationship between the horse and the jockey and try and stick with it.” Leroy Brown also has an impressive record at Tauranga where the son of Ace High has three wins and two placings to his credit with his only failure a midfield finish in the Japan Trophy 12 months ago. “Last year, he just took off and hopefully this time he doesn’t grab the bit and charge off,” Ralph said. “In the past, he has done too much in the run, but mentally he is getting a lot better.” While Leroy Brown’s outside gate (15) is a concern, he does possess enough gate speed to cross the field to land his favoured frontrunning role. “We’ve got a bit of a problem with the barrier draw, but if it does get a bit wetter then he may not have to spend as much petrol to get to the lead,” Ralph said. “Anything from a Good4 to a Soft7 is in his range, but when it gets up to a 10 his racing manners aren’t conducive to a result. “You can’t go flat out in Red Band gumboots and think you’re going to win.” Should the gelding run up to expectations at Tauranga, a trip south for the Listed Bramco Granite & Marble Flying Handicap (1400m) is on the radar. “He might go down to Trentham, we think it’s a track that suits him and he was only 1.3 lengths off the winner (Quintessa (NZ) (Shamus Award)) there in the Group One (Levin Classic, 1600m) as a three-year-old,” Ralph said. Ralph will also be represented in the Snow Williams Bayleys Country Handicap (2100m) at Tauranga by Perfectmanz (NZ) (Almanzor), a past course and distance winner who didn’t find the Ellerslie track to his liking last time out. “I really like him, he’s got the ability but doesn’t really know it,” Ralph said. “He’s got a high cruising speed and hopefully he doesn’t get boxed in on a slow pace. That will be up to Jack to work out and with a bit of luck, I think he’s a strong chance.” View the full article
