  1. Those sisters were tough.
  2. Don't you guys get to clucky now, you may end up with egg on your face,
  3. I think powley was buried at waterlea course, very sad loss of a very good mare, in tragic circumstances, have never forgotten what happened on that fatal trip.
  4. Hope to get there one day, always good for a few rough divs, remember when they remodeled the track sometime ago, some said it was more of a leaders bias track, guess you local boys will be able to answer that.
  5. True, got to have that luck no matter how good you are, backed two gallopers yesterday, kolee, 3 wide they whole trip 4th, and babbooski never got a gaps up the straight,9s for 3rd.Well done to the tipsters who gave out a few winners at very good odds. Impressive indeed, keep them coming.
  6. No luck for Diana harbour, went a nice race
  7. Mynanasgotnoteeth from a good draw
  8. Had a bet on baboonski in the last, very unlucky never got a gap on the rail, 9s for place and kolee 3 wide the trip and finished fourth, both these pick up a race in the near future.
  9. I took 8s fixed on let it rip Reilly on Thursday nite at timaru Friday, thought it would be 2nd favourite, the pre post favourite was at 1.95 and needed five scratching to get a start, also no rider declared, was a dual acceptor with rider for another race, favourite gets a start, let it rip wins, pays 12s on tote and 18s fixed, left me a little peeved.
  10. Most apprenticeships in all walks are watered down these days and pushed through in a quicker time, maybe racing falls in to that category to.
  11. Stipes need to step in and get some pace into the races, especially staying ones.
  12. Agree, all the upgrades have been a disaster, they couldn't help themselves and had to fiddle with them, i cant name any that have improved after a upgrade, more than likely to have a list of those that have been a ruined.
  13. Seen other dairy farms during the winter, if only they looked that good.
  14. Be a couple of cup hopefuls stepping out tomorrow, I guess they will be pleased the races have been rescheduled, rather than missing a race or having to trek South. Let's hope they get through the day.
  15. I handed my notice in at subway today.They'll never find anyone as good as me to fill that roll.
  16. They know the rules, no sympathy for them.
  17. Been to reefton a couple of times when they have gone 2.02 and change, now's that's up there with the best.
  18. Some certainly struggled with the firm conditions.
  19. Shad

    Yep, seen it at the time lucky not to fall off.
  20. Anyone checked out the new Inglewood sire.
  21. Hold fire till the last day of the cup meeting.
  22. As long as they keep plenty water on for cup meeting.
  23. Maybe a clap of thunder on the way.
  24. A lot of wind
  25. Nice win by abraxos, great divvy at 19s or 23s fixed, takes some of the pain away from missing out on her first start win paying 80s, That did hurt, pity i missed out that day.
