  1. I said that and got 12mths.😁
  2. I always argued that pick six was good for turnover. It may well have tied up money for the duration of its running, but what they neglected was the fact, punters had to study 6 races thereby encouraging them to bet on all those races where they had done their homework especially if they got dumped early. Stupid decision for mine.
  3. Southland have the best sand and surface in the entire country. They also have the slowest track, so no surprise's there.
  4. You can live in your sanitized world Thomas, me, I prefer people that don't submit to woke ideology. I like honest people that are true to themselves. If trackside or any other news broadcast cannot handle it for what it is, then f#ck them, they don't deserve their imput.

    Parker v Fa

    Great win team Parker, the world is Joe's oyster.
  6. Don't get one Freda, they are not to be trusted. Anyway, when was the last time you heard of anybody croaking from tetanus. I can say I cannot think of a single death.
  7. After the way Kevin Myers was treated by Trackside and NZTR i'm surprised anybody talks to them.
  8. I take it you are awake Charles as I am. Both Tucker and John Cambell are very good source's of information. Steve Kirsch is right on to it. Peter McCullough Dr is also good, been on to it since the getgo. NZ Doctors Speaking Out With Science, NZDSOS are the truth podium in this country, they do good work. Another reference I used early in the scamdemic was Dr Luc Montagnier Nobel Prize winner for his work on AIDS. He was a French virologist, died couple yrs ago, but not before warning those with an ear and IQ to heed it.
  9. Barry Young fronts court this morning Friday 23rd Feb 10am. This will be interesting.
  10. When I started it was 1st 3. The split being 60% 1st, 25% 2nd, 15% 3rd. When I finished they paid out to 4th. Then it became all the way back to 6th. I never liked it because it robbed the 1st 3.
  11. No surprise there Chief, if your willing to take a dog all the way to Auckland to race blind, then it goes without saying racing 4 times in a short period is normal. Me its ignorance.
  12. Goldstar Hans tried to take a shortcut because he was not ofay with the track. It was his first look. Trainers in NZ have a very bad habit of not trialing their dogs first before racing on them. In Australia you would not see this like it happens here in NZ. I have seen NZ trainers take dogs all the way to Aus for a feature race, and not give them a look at the track where they are expected to perform. These so called trainers do not have the ability to see it from the dogs eye's. These dogs are running blind, and unless they get a kind draw, heaps of luck, and end up right on the lure, then they invariably fail. All this results in greater chance of injury or doing what Hans tried, take a short cut. The other fatal flaw with NZ training is over racing, cram as many races as you can syndrome. They call it well placing of the dog if they can run 3 times a week in the same grade running out noms. Again you do not get the over racing in Aus like seen here. Again this all adds up to more injuries and deaths. NZ Greyhounds are in a bubble of their own.
  13. You have to feel sorry for the dogs. Race till you drop. Hard to believe how dogs are raced in NZ. Until recently they could race every 24hrs, and some trainers made a habit of doing this. Then they made a new rule that dogs cannot race consecutively until 48hrs has elapsed, so now we have trainers doing this all the time including subjecting them to a 900km round trip to Invercargill. Its little wonder there is so many injuries happening on NZ tracks. The bar is set very low.
  14. Barry Young is an honest man, I'm 100% behind him.
  15. Absolutely, should of happened 20yrs ago.
  16. I think the dogs now have Rennell the blue magic burier running the show. Talk about musical chairs, these suits seem to gravitate like bee's to a honey pot.
  17. I'm having a go, $2 is a great price in a field of 8. Opie will tuck her in behind and monster them at the 200 mark. She's the best sprinter in Australasia by far. Draw not a concern with good weather forcast. Get on.
  18. Heaven help harness racing with professional suits such as Holden and Barsi in charge, both being ex CEO and Chairman of the dogs. Look where they are today. Good luck.
  19. Chem trails.
  20. Or being in Dick Jennings Toyota Crown traveling to the Timaru races at 160kms an hour with him driving.
  21. I think Bonsai Pipeline also placed in a Wellington Cup stand to be corrected.
  22. Did he not take Bonsai Pipeline to Aussie, seem to remember him winning a good race around Melbourne Cup time. Think he may of had a dog or two, Greyhounds.?.
  23. Problem might be to many suits.
  24. Clearly tried to take a short cut unlike the Stipe report that the dog checked of heels which in turn caused it to hit the rail. Very lucky to survive.
