aquaman replied to Brodie's topic in Trotting Chat
Solway, Masterton. -
Well, rung help desk, finally got my two $50 bonus bets credited. Have until midnight tomorrow to use them. They are getting a lot of whines about the 24hr crap which was covertly brought in. I suggested that their end game was going to be, 1hr to use the bonus bets, nothing will surprise with this lot,

Struck two $50 bonus back bets yesterday, one race 2 at Flemington and the other race 2 Rosehill and still waiting for them to be credited to my account. Not the first time this has happened to me. Continuously on the phone to Etaine getting them sorted. The Flemington one finished 4th, Rosehill one 2nd. Looks like another half hr on the phone again today.

It goe's without saying, if you impair a dogs vision in a racing context then the chances of carnage is greater and more injuries will result. Just plain common sense.

Blinkers should be banned on welfare grounds. It won't happen because they are to stupid to see it, also greed comes into play.
-
Not so Newmarket, the bonus bets I speak of are available to all with an account and a computer.
-
Its now 1/2, not 1/4. They have halved the bonus bets on a Saturday, in fact they have gone from 16 bonus races to 6.

I respect RFK Jnr on everything except his support for the genocide in Gaza and greater Palestine. I also support Trump, but do not like his support of the Zionst mob trying to exterminate every last Palestinian from the holy land known as Palestine. Having said that, they are both committed to ending the NATO war in Ukraine first day in office. I also respect Putin for the fantastic job he has done for Russia since the fall of the Soviet Union, same can be said for Xi of China. But back to RFK who by the way cleaned up the Hudson River as a lawyer, he is a good man, much better than others in his family whom have publicly criticised him and rubbished him. The American empire is coming to an end, and if the deep state can steal this election with laughing gas Kamarla then it truly is over. Trump can turn it if he gets good people on board such as RFK in his administration. Last time he had nothing but back stabbers. Just my opinion Charles, cheers.

Maiki Sherman....the "Breaking News" - "Crisis" that wasn't.
aquaman replied to Walt's topic in Political Yarns
The best definition I can think of would be Jesus Christ, born a Palestinian Jew in Bethlehem whose second greatest commandment was to love your neighbor as oneself, not I might add to bomb the crap out women , children, old people, hospitals, schools, places of worship and everything in between. -

Agree with all the above except the bit about pro Palestine/Hamas groups are mothers milk. I am and stand with the Palestinian people and their just fight against the Zionist thieving invading settlers that have overrun Palestine since 1948. One mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter which is how I view Hamas. This conflict did not start on Oct 7th as they would have you believe, but rather about 75yrs ago when the Palestinian people were forced out with what is known as the Nakba in 1948. Nobody can justify the genocide that is unfolding before our very eyes as to whats unfolding in Gaza and the West Bank that has a decent heart and moral compass no matter what your politics are. Zionism has become the dominant cult and dogma in Israeli politics, and this is whats driving this maniacal genocide thats being witnessed by a silent West. Just my view Walt, so please don't come back with a novel on why i'm wrong as my stand is firm. Perhaps a little research on a character called Theodor Herzl the founder of the Zionist movement is in order. Cheers. -
How do you know it was a mistake and not a ring in?, do you have other information?.

I had a dog race at Invercargill back in the day that was the wrong dog. I was in Auck racing, and I had arranged for another trainer to pick up my dog in Cant and take to Invercargill with them, and you guessed it, took wrong dog. Even though the dog that was supposed to go was a brindle, and the dog that went was black and white it passed all ID and raced much to my shock watching on TV in Auckland. Needless to say I kept my mouth shut.

I gave up on NZ gallops 20yrs ago, now 80% of my turnover goes on Aussie racing which is superior in all facets.

You just don't get it.
-
No I do not have skin in the game as you put it. I was simply pointing out to you the relevance of the phone rule and why. My takeaway from your answers was you didn't understand.
-
Yes, so the doggy can get to hear it.
-
Once upon a time there was a high profile central district trainer who experimented giving their dogs live kills whilst having a particular cell ringtone ringing. The lesson being that when dog heard the ringtone, it identified with getting a live kill. Next step was to have somebody ring the phone that was in the handlers pocket whilst behind the boxes. This was an old Aussie rort getting copied here. This was the main reason for the phone rule.
-
You miss the point why cell phones are a no no anywhere near the boxes regardless which side of the fence the perp is on. Its the audio which is the telling factor, can the dogs hear it?.

Darren Weir Descision Released: Could be back training next year!

Why? -
In the running is another question, and that does not concern me. As for attempting to take a short cut by leaping the running rail, then that was by his own volition free of interference.
-
Wrong, tried to leap the fence free of interference.
-
Two things spring to mind, new box's and quality of dogs. The last year has seen regular appearances from strong Canterbury kennels, and this is set to grow. And the boxes look fairly new unlike the rubbishy ones they replaced. But first and foremost, quality of dog. Just my thoughts Chapdog.

I don't, she's a turd, and thats being kind. A traitor to humanity.

The sun is shinning.

Quiet often when using the app on my phone it just freezes on a page, i then have to wipe it and start again which is annoying when trying to get a bet on. All time consuming, my phones a Samsung, and not a cheap one.
