That was awesome to watch , what a beast of a horse. Poor old Don Hugo trying his heart out and be spat out like that. I had the stopwatch on at home and only looked at it once I clicked across the line and thought I had messed up the marks looking at the time. Merlin flat(most of them were)along way from home but I thought went really well considering he needs a good trip usually, a pass mark from me, but Larry, WOW. Any breeder looking at that may have a replacement for Bettor's Delight's DNA. Have one for me Gamma.

As has been pointed out to you before the legislation exists for Sports to receive profit revenue from the TAB activities related to those sports.  However they must have a NSO (National Sporting Organisation) to be eligible.   Unless you are arguing that the surplus revenue from Sports that don't have an agreement should be shared by equally or proportionally amongst all three codes and any sport that has an agreement with the TAB.  Name one Sport that doesn't have an NSO/agreement with the TAB that has significant revenue that isn't distributed to that Sport?

Due to the severe weather forecasted, we will cancel live racing for April 5. Saturday's race card will move to April 6.View the full article

@TAB For Ever what do your mate$ think about that sort of thing....

7th-Aqueduct, $86,000, Alw (C)/Opt. Clm ($80,000), 4-4, 4yo/up, 1m, 1:35.23, ft, 1/2 length. STAR OF WONDER (c, 4, Uncle Mo–Starship Warpspeed, by Congrats), a half-brother to Shedaresthedevil (Daredevil), MGISW, $2,777,458, delivered as the even-money favorite in his 4-year-old debut here. The 'TDN Rising Star' was off to a slow start, but recovered nicely to advance into fourth through an opening quarter in :23.11. Locked and loaded but stuck in traffic approaching the quarter pole, Star of Wonder found racing room along the rail as they straightened for home and kicked on in the stretch to defeat longshot Castle Chaos (Palace Malice) by a half-length. Star of Wonder made all four of his previous career starts last season, including an optional claiming victory around two turns at Churchill Downs most recently Nov. 24. Starship Warpspeed has also produced Mojovation (Quality Road), GSP, $375,988; the 3-year-old filly Lady Scuderia (Uncle Mo), a $2.5-million KEESEP yearling purchase set to debut for Resolute Racing and Bill Mott at Keeneland Sunday; and the 2-year-old colt Leading Change (Gun Runner), an $800,000 KEESEP yearling purchase by Case Clay Thoroughbred Management. Lifetime Record: 5-4-0-0, $267,680. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV. O/B-WinStar Farm, LLC (KY); T-Brad H. Cox.

Well AUSTRAC in their statement of claim make a case for ENTAIN not having done enough Geo-blocking.

The Night of Champions is over for another year. Leap To Fame getting to cross to NZ and take out the 'Race' defending Champion Merlin , and also grind down the current Interdominion Pacing Champion Don Hugo as well to really seal the deal. LTF Now officially an International 'Superstar' 🌟. am still shaking head at that performance.  on the BOAY superstar list we had the final race 10 to complete. Sorry But I near fainted after the Betcha R9 , seems like the ultimate top of Everest to me with a QLDer winning in NZ,  and am only recovering now at breakfast ☕. Race 10 result  :  Crazy 🤪  1st, Trifolium 2nd, Patrick Mahomes 3rd, Rewiri hill 4th. well in yet another fitting result for the evening after several already CRAZY did in fact win the last race for our star runners of the night (Ranga and NoworNever) to gather another 8 points each lol 😆 RANGA had gone 'Crazy' before the last anyway with the joy of it all 😂.  Mikey rounded out the BOAY trifecta getting 3rd place with Patrick Mahomes. Chief and Brodster picked up 6 points each for the 2nd placing for the Crystal Hackett trotter.   Brodster and Gamma finish at the back. Never mind mate . there's always next year and some more great action 😆. we'll just have to go CRAZY and buy💰 a better Slot.    FINAL POINT SCORE Ranga 70 points ( has leapt to Fame 🏆 and new BOAY champion)  2nd Mikey 56 pts,  3rd NoworNever 52 pts,  the Galah 40, TABman 38, Chief 36,  Brodster and Gamma 34.    

Interesting, Carter’s UDR is over .3 and Forbury thinks he is a poor driver? We are lucky at the moment we have several very good Junior drivers going around. Knocking drivers is not of any benefit to anyone.. Personally believe if you do not like the drives of horses you have backed, then probsbly time to stop investing? Plenty of opportunity to offload and make money without complaining   

Kit i am 100% with the submission you have put up, however the racing industry has very close ties to the Government, and they are still glowing with the 200m that Entain threw at them and add in the other 100m they are promised over this geo block shit and the punter has no show here in NZ. Like it or not NZTR and the big breeders  don't give a toss about punters, and they are driving this legislation on behalf of Entain.
