But will Opes turn up, for his first raceride in nearly 3 months ?

Why not no whips at all----like the Red Indians of America and others ?

Tompax, have you sent that pic to your blow-up-doll maker and got a quote ?

Maybe there was no other option. Clarke might have wanted to go fishing.

Mardi might become the Wane " Fonc " Hawkes of NZ

Spot on, Tompax. You could remember the days of Hercules, Albert sen and jun driving the night cart round at night to collect effluence---- you could remember the days of horses stabled all over Auckland, training at Avondale, Alex Park and Ellerslie-----Bringing the racehorse to public attention and interest.-----Now ? None, apart from your pony club friends near Orakei--------the lost generations

You guys are a bit unfair on the poor little Hideon. How would your self-esteem be after a bankruptcy, 3 failed marriages and 5 kids from the last living far away ? You too could only find solace with a bunch of babbling drunks in restaurant land !

I've found horse racing to be the greatest investment known to mankind. Shame on NZ racing for failing to realise that and promote it as such.

Devolution's dictionary definition: " descent to a lower or worse state. " Evolution applies to those who grow and avoid gambling on racehorses, Devolution is relevant to those who remain in the decadent industry.

Sadly there is nothing in horse racing to attract the masses. No horses on TV---like 40-50 years ago, Bonanza, Laramie, High Chapparal, Lone Ranger, Mr Ed etc----- and no cult figures. Racing people don't have a mentality attractive to the masses. Nothing will change.

Back around 2006-07, following the tax parity gained in the 2005 election, NZ owners and trainers were elated and optimisitic with forecasts of 40% stake increases all around. After a big Derby win in Aust, Murray Baker was on the Aussie retro programme, chuckling about the " scrapbook " being the popular option, as opposed to the " chequebook " i.e selling the horse. That chuckling was a long time ago

Once upon a time there was a Sylvia Park Handicap for 2 year olds at Ellerslie

If if they've been gelded, or served a mare ?

Do horse people actually still use " form " and pentrometers when trying to select winners ? " No wonder the masses have buggered off to sports betting "
-
Hey Tompax, God never decreed that we had to bet on bog tracks. It's your choice he said in Bart p47, v3 which is the book after Tommy ( Smith )
