At the last AGM, Masterton members showed common sense and rejected a proposal to join Race. Some misguided fool in the club moved the motion. That is the only reason I can think of to give them an award. -
Wouldn’t both the North and the South love to have Foxton and Levin. P.S. I was there to see two horses that I have shares in trial and even though I arrived before the scheduled time of the first one I was too late, that’s how well run an efficient they are! Never saw any petition, although I did see “Dummy” in serious talk with someone. -
yes some good fields at auckland. It will be interesting how they drive marketplace. I suppose he tries to lead throughout. J dunn did outdrive c ferguson last week,although the draws make it harder for dunn this week.Punters who had been on marketplace when he got beaten 3 starts ago probably prefer seeing got the chocolates wins,but marketplace being a bettors delight and got the chocolates an art major,mean marketplace should suit the 2700 more.. I aslo though p ferguson was a very clever tactical drive last week. He knew john dunn would come of the inside ,and realising c ferguson seemed to be showing no interest in taking up the likely 1/1,so he placed himself there and gave dunn a better buffer from markerplace. The drive of the last month at auckland,was the ben hope drive on muscle mountain,when he opted to trail instead of leading. That tactical decision,which he must have oplanned pre race,would have come with a lot of mental pressure,knowing he could have coped a lot of critism if things had gone wrong. havuing said that,i do think its going to be very hard for muscle mountain to replicate winning tommorow night from the ur 10m.I'd like to see him win,but somehow i think it won't happen from his starting position,unless hiope can somehow work some more magic. -
yes,i watched the box seat tonight. i'm not a regular viwer but might do so more and did think its content was good.These days they seem to be more in tune with what the average harness follower considers interesting and in the right doses.The presenters are all good and a good combination,even micky g's input.In my opinion.

I know it was just a low grade race at cambridge on a tuesday,but the north island stipes must know some people still watch and bet on those races and can see when a driver does something they shouldn't. Race 6 at cambridge,bonnie parker driven by k coppins broke on the first bend,then for the next 50m was driven in a way that totally confused the following drivers. Initially she angled it out,then no better go back in,then no better go out after all.Badly hampering the 2 trailing horses. Now i'm not saying the stipes need to be picking on anyone,but can't they at least apply the rules the same as they do in the south island. All the stipes had to do,to satisfy punters that they hadn't dozed off again was include in the stipes report that k coppins was spoken to for the manner in which she drove. The north island stipes must know a driver is supposed to take their horse clear of the field,or at the very least try and maintain its line. That horse was not hanging.It was steered out,then in,then out.,all within 50m. On 6 february,b ford,driving blinkin bones was fined $300 for failing to take his horse clear of the field when in a break. If you wacth the video,yes he was at fault,yes the penalty seemed fair even though he defended it,but no it was nowhere near a confusing drive as what we saw tonight. Some people get annoyed by standing starts,not me,my bug bear is the inconsistent application of the rules because they aren't doing their job and farly enforcing the rules,ensuring everyone is treated the same. Not one rule for some and another for others. Why do they treat people differently?
