Back in day! in the lead up to Lotto, would it surprise you to know that a few of us suggested to Head Office that the TAB should fight to be the one that delievered technical backbone... the Ostriches won out! It has been interesting that 'racing' has never championed how Lotto's take out is 45% -
Do you ever give your own views? FFS, you just copy and paste Steel Balls stories, we all know about them.. But whatever you say… he admitted he was a PROBLEM GAMBLER, he admitted to losing everything, even winnings from Creek. As per usual, you miss my main point, being it was harder to see what punters where losing 20 odd years ago compared to today, every deposit / bet / withdrawal, and now they have a monopoly it must be a clear picture of who the problem gamblers are. As per usual, you make it personal and think i am angry about Entain banning me gambling overseas, your right, i think its a piss take, but i am not angry, i am stiil betting at Sportsbet so dont be so sad. I have cut right back betting on Betcha / TAB on principle, nothing to do with me losing, you know nothing about myself, trust me i am doing well financially, invested in shares many years ago. But am i angry about luring young people into gambling, YES 100%. As i have stated and most would agree with on here, well apart from Chief… is when we all got introduced to racing 40 or 50 years ago, it was mainly a social event, with a few bets and beers every few weeks. Fast forward to today, and its full on 24/7 punting, kids getting enticed. Recently a good friend opened up about their grandson, nobody gambled in the family, but their 19yo son had been betting with his mates on sports, which progressed to online casino. Family knew nothing about his gambling, he lost his savings of $20k as well as racking up 3 credit cards and a personal loan, all up lost $35k in just over a year…. Only reason shocked family found out, was a bailiff called around to his home… at which time he broke down. His credit rating has been affected and the family had to take out loan on house to pay debts, it has really affected all the family. So, yes there is a reason i feel strongly about this, will be many others around NZ with the same story. -

Friday, Meydan, UAE, post time: 9.00pm, AL MAKTOUM MILE SPONSORED BY EMAAR-G2, AED1,000,000, 3yo/up, 1600m Field: Imperial Emperor (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), Meshtri (Medaglia d'Oro), Tumbarumba (Oscar Performance), King Gold (Fr) (Anodin {Ire}), Mendelssohn Bay (Mendelssohn), Commissioner King (Commissioner), Morning (Munnings), Castlewarden (Into Mischief), Killer Collect (Collected), Masmak (Vino Rosso), West Saratoga (Exaggerator), Musical Dancer (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}), David Of Athens (Nyquist). TDN Analysis: Bhupat Seemar saddles no fewer than eight of the 13 runners, headed by March's G2 Al Maktoum Classic winner Imperial Emperor and recent Dubai Creek Mile scorer Mendelssohn Bay. Defending champion Meshtri was six lengths behind Mendelssohn Bay in that Listed contest and needs to take a big step forward, while the French-trained King Gold returns to Dubai for the first time since filling the runner-up spot in April's G2 Godolphin Mile, having also won the G2 Firebreak Stakes earlier in the year. The unexposed Killer Collect, another Seemar trainee, and GI Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile fourth Tumbarumba, having his first start for Hamad Al Jehani, are others to consider in a wide-open renewal. [Adam Houghton]. Friday, Meydan, UAE, post time: 8.25pm, AL RASHIDIYA SPONSORED BY EMAAR-G2, AED850,000, 3yo/up, 1800mT Field: Nations Pride (Ire) (Teofilo {Ire}), First Conquest (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), Chicago Critic (GB) (Night Of Thunder {Ire}), Caramelito (Fr) (Zarak {Fr}), Stormy Ocean (GB) (Frankel {GB}), Opera Ballo (Ire) (Ghaiyyath {Ire}), Miss Of Change (Fr) (King Of Change {GB}). TDN Analysis: A four-time winner at the top level, Nations Pride has been a terrific servant to the Charlie Appleby stable, but he might prove vulnerable here to the younger legs of stablemate Opera Ballo, who remains a colt of huge potential after his runner-up finish in the G2 Joel Stakes at Newmarket when last seen. The style of racing in Dubai should suit the 'TDN Rising Star' and this looks a good opportunity for him to gain his fifth career win on just his seventh start. First Conquest completes the strong Godolphin team as Appleby seeks a fourth consecutive victory in the Al Rashidiya, with Chicago Critic perhaps best of the remainder. [Adam Houghton].
