Will Coronavirus be the Death Knell of NZ Racing Industry?
Dark Beau replied to Chief Stipe's topic in Galloping Chat
This is a man made recession which it going to be of monumental proportions. Unless something changes quickly the fallout will be bigger than anyone under 80 years has ever seen. Firstly Airlines and Cruise Companies all over the world will go belly up. Hotels and Motels (many of) won’t survive either. Companies everywhere will be laying off staff. And that’s if the virus doesn’t even really come here. It’s share bloody madness. -
He had a “gut buster” under McDonald and simply hasn’t had a proper chance to get over it. I all honesty I expect him to regress even more in the All Star Mile. I wish I saw it another way, but I don’t.
-
Thomas, that's not the way it worked out!
-
Throw in Leggy too and you might be on to something.
-
He’s dottery.

They are still making their way back from the Elton John concert in the Bay. OK some are going to the Auckland one, but they are the ones that don’t know better or have no class. LOL
-
Sorry I don't get it.
-
You are right but it's wrong. Next it will be the Te Akau Cup in March aka the Auckland Cup. I say bring it on and we will see how alone you are!
-
It’s a superb Group One race by NZ standards. Holy Pasta, what are you on about?
-
Why bother. In my opinion they are out of order to ride roughshod over the registered name of the race for their own huge egos.
-
Pray tell me how the hell that is going to happen when he has been found guilty. Or more the point what has your point got to do with his name suppression. I tend to think that it’s to do with some other despicable crime that’s still to come before the courts! What odds are you going to give me that I am not correct?
-
Why not?
-
I wasn’t referring to the Boysgetpaid! Even you know that! I was referring to the other “self opinionated experts”.
-
Aren’t they a bunch of opinionated fuckwhits?
-
My finger got RSI after reading for a wee while and then attempted to to get to the grist of the matter by scrolling to the bottom! Actually I don’t think that I ever reached it!
-
A good choice.
-
Two good self made men contributing to a good cause. Well done guys.

Chief read this and tell me that I am wrong or have had too many gins like you did the other night. https://thoroughbredracing.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=8f27b48b2f6f46ee70b93ed7d&id=c4faa767cc&e=4cc1cfdc61 Times, they are a changing.......Bob Dillion P.S. No relation to Mike.
-
Chief you are completely wrong. Open your ears and eyes. Heard of Jay Hovdey, John Messara and me? [Plus Thomas] We will effect change.
-
Ban the whip and do it now. It will confirm to everyone how useless Bernard Saundry and his team are if they don’t do it within the next 12 months. That’s my opinion anyway.
-
Agree with all your comments. Unfortunately the running the Karaka Million on a Saturday has forced the running to be one week earlier and the people are just not back in Wellington....well the difference between a great crowd and a good one. Actually (I was there) and I thought that it was a good crowd for these days. With regard to marketing, the wizard from Palmerston North isn’t a wizard if you get my drift.

Kozzi has to be the most talented jockey in NZ. I predict that within 5 months (not 5 minutes) he will be the Tony Pike stable jockey. (After yesterday.) I wonder how good friend, Innes will feel? I suppose “septic tank with arms” Castles will come to the rescue, and try and help Innes out now, that he is back in the Waikato. It’s all very interesting isn’t it? P.S. The quote of “septic tank with arms and legs” has to be attributed to Don Murray, for whatever reason.

Can someone explain the logic of this handicap???
Dark Beau replied to Murray Fish's topic in Galloping Chat
What about Sir John Key ? -
I know that a couple of you seem disagree with everything I post, especially negative Leggy. Anyway I believe that Trentham will again put up another perfect track on Saturday. Certainly the racing Gods have had their say by sprinkling 26 mm evenly across the track in the last 20 hours. By the way....did you hear Waddell’s comments after his first winning ride? I have never ever heard a more positive comment from a jockey. ? P.S. And I didn’t pay him off. ?
-
Sadly he was.
