How good has it been watching these 2 race against each other. Marketplace clearly the better early on, but Got The Chocs now has the edge and the staying power. Reminds me of Starship Vrs Tuapeka Knight in the 80s, Starship had edge early but Tuapeka Knight soon turned out to be better. I do remember Starship beating him one day at Addington, only to be relegated as Ian Cameron closed the gap. Sir Castleton Vrs Basil Dean, Gammalite Vrs Poppy…. What other match ups can you remember? -
I thought 3k but could be totally wrong, by blarney kiss I think, what a bargin either way, great to see his colours still going around with Snows granddaughter Jamie Lee, lostcause was my tip for the nz cup, but pulled out before final field, shame as would have relished those conditions, nice mare bit unlucky in last years nz an Auckland cup, bad draws an tough runs. -

I think the complication and overload of computerised and analysed information can be a turn off. Sometimes a one line quote from a trainer in their own environment as opposed to raceday is more valuable and usable. There is a misconception about what does and doesn't drive turnover. Not every customer is equal. -

The article may be slightly misleading. The scribe says the horse has been retired to Windsor Park. Mark Walker says Wild Night will see his days out as a pleasure horse. Windsor Park wouldn't have enough paddocks to retire all the horses bred by them. My money is on Wild Night joining Gina Schick's Event Stars for a time until rehomed to a different equestrian discipline. -

I don't get your argument. Tauherenikau patrons mostly come from Wellington. Isn't that the attraction for a townie, a trip to a country race meeting? Why don't the Messara Report lovers all stand up and admit they were wrong??!! Hard working members, committees and volunteers from country clubs across the nation do themselves proud on a shoe string budget, yet are still expected to throw their hands in the air and relinquish not only their race dates, but their assets too. Kumara, Motukarara, Kurow, Omakau, Cromwell, Stratford, Thames, Te Teko etc have all had regular bigger crowds than Waipukurau which seems to have gone unnoticed by George, yet wouldn't he have called at the latter two? Have Woodville, Waipukurau, Waverley, Otaki and Hawera been thanked for stepping up when the "best" tracks in CD have under performed, and not been able to perform at all?
