    Bullshit on two counts. One you didn't notice it instantly and you aren't a horseman.

    Good Jockey this Kevin Stott. Hands and heels in the last at Pukekohe just now and lifted the winner over the line!
  3. Chief Stipe
    I'm probably like 99.9% of those who watched and didn't notice it until @Thomass posted. Then again he probably didn't notice either until he saw it in the Stipes report!

    Not ALL races though? I see BETCHA which is normally only Fixed Odds only has Tote Odds for Hong Kong.
  5. Chief Stipe
    I wonder who DID get on at those odds. How? Surely once the initial odds are set they are then done programmatically.
  6. Chief Stipe
    Yeah. I've been thinking the same thing for a while now. The whole shute is a mess.

    I see Jayne Ivil elevated the Wellington Cup Carnival to being the Melbourne Cup Carnival.
  8. Chief Stipe
    I see the fields are up on TABNZ but no Tote yet.

    Geez another canter and sprint.

    LISA ALLPRESS HAS SUSPECTED BROKEN LEG Our thoughts are with Lisa Allpress who has suffered a suspected broken leg when injured in the stalls in race 4 at Trentham today. This is so unlucky and so unfortunate given she hasn't long returned to race day riding after suffering a severe back injury last year. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Lisa. The Trentham meeting has been put back one race.
  11. Chief Stipe
    Only if you didn't give them a cut?
  12. Chief Stipe
    The track looks like it hasn't been irrigated that well. Again it wasn't a Soft 5 for the start of the day and arguably it isn't a Good 4 now.

    There aren't that many spare ambulances to have two sitting idle at Trentham for the whole day waiting for the rare event where there is an accident. One could argue that a fully equipped paramedic on course would be sufficient until an ambulance arrived.

    Trying to mimic what Bernadette Cooper used to do in OZ. When she was in the parade ring at Hastings late last year she just seemed to get in the way. Then you add the continuity presenters in the studio like the Guy "I'm an expert on all sports" Heveldt and horses have been loaded and gone.
  16. Chief Stipe
    Yep and the first 600m will be drone footage or flashes in between piles of dirt and housing! Although there is one of the best Grp 3 Stakes on offer in the World! $400,000!
  17. Chief Stipe
    Thanks for that excellent explanation. I would have thought though the two Grp 1's that don't have ballots and which are in the World Pool would have had odds up.
  18. Chief Stipe
    The Race Card was confirmed yesterday with some races having two ballots. How is that any different to some meetings in NZ? That said is it related to the World Pool constraints?
  19. Chief Stipe
    But what stops them from putting the fields up with just a SP option?
  20. Chief Stipe
    Still nothing. Has there been an upgrade to app? I notice an INTL option box which i hadn't seen before. Tick it and you get a plethora of race meetings from some obscure places. Many are abandoned probably because no one bets on them.
  21. Chief Stipe
    Italy is up but not Hong Kong. Typhoon?
  22. Chief Stipe
    No I've checked Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Nothing.
  23. Chief Stipe
    Ok that's reassuring. Not my eyesight nor approaching senility.
  24. Chief Stipe
    I realise my eyesight is failing but I can't seem to find any fields let alone odds for this weekends Hong Kong JC meeting. I guess it will be up before I post this topic.
  25. Chief Stipe
    I'm guessing NZTR are not interested in fixing that problem?
