    Yes I thought they would have done well in Aus especially Vic they have had some good results Imperatriz, Ballatrix Star, Quintessa & San Doubte all doing well. They have bought some nice horses should enable them to be more than competitive over there, looking forward to watching it unfold , Aus is the right place for the quality of animal they are investing in.

    KM being their marquee day , I'd have thought there was a bit more focus on being successful or at least protecting their investment. This years KM bets they didn't seem themselves, a bit of a dart at a dartboard (like me) was their punting strategy.

    Also Punting to make $$$ is a very difficult gig to take on and I empathise with with regards to that.

    I think they'll evaporate into a group that just goes to the races, if they don't have the $$ to spend the industry will shun them like they do most people/groups who start off with a hiss and a roar and evaporate into thin air. Agree the concept has been good getting punters to the track, but skeptical about their involvement in ownership and punting a lot of the people they have had involved in syndicates etc don't have the understanding or staying power for racehorse ownership or the punt , thats problematic in itself and its starting to show now.

    I can't see it being an issue (distance or travel) , not to mention the young boy Bergerson seems to be doing a very good job also and is beginning to come into his own.

    They have literally copied off a concept from Australia (Everest) , like most things our industry does. They are now tabling themselves as genius for doing that ... ???

    Here we go @Chief Stipe , if you haven't got your share(s) yet the team have identified some dead certs for the race in this video. You could have 2 or 3 runners in the race , taken all the hardwork out of it. Top it off this is the best bunch of yearling Dave Ellis has seen at the sales , if that doesn't get your CC out of your pocket nothing will!

    Cracks are starting to appear because they are losing. You can't help but question some of those bets last week , they were betting as bad as me and thats absolutely awful! I think maybe they need some serious punters to assist them with their bets which may help them to at least become sustainable, are they too proud to seek someone out?

    Certainly a lot to live up for this top priced horse , I can't find a successful sale topper apart from Don Eduardo that won at G1.

    Moaning doesn't work @Chief Stipe , they do not care. Incompetence reigns supreme!

    But you still have to win!

    It sounds like he will be back and forth from Aus to NZ , so perhaps that answers how it will run. Fascinating to see how he goes over there with the new firepower they have, I think he will do very well.

    Help me out , is this how a normal slot race works ? A slot holder trains other slots holders horses for the race?
  15. Huey
    Agree that does seem off, unless they are by passing the ex NI route a lot of horses take and going directly there instead?
  16. Huey
    I think we will all enjoy finding out what @Chief Stipe has taken a share in at this sale @Jim Green , he doesn't get much wrong so exciting times ahead for us all !

    So they are racing for $18k in Aus, seems strange we are racing for $18k in NZ as well and we were talking about Aus. prizemoney & training fees . Perhaps Aus & NZ have more in common that we think?
  18. Huey
    Is someone racing for $18k over there today?
  19. Huey
    Isn't is Australia Day over there also?
  20. Huey
    62.5% of 71k ain't a years training in Aus
  21. Huey
    Hmmm not sure if thats right, I've heard some fairly hefty bills across the Tasman.

    Is this the 4th or 5th Wexford trained galloper in the race, who also hold a slot for the race? https://loveracing.nz/News/48148/WaikatoThoroughbredRacingsecureSethitoforNZBKiwi.aspx

    Brilliant move for him , very good trainer and will be appreciated over there. I guess you'd have to say they have the stock over there now. Hopefully he can win a G1 with yours.
  24. Huey
    Good stuff, I wish him all the best. Will your one be going there @Chief Stipe?
  25. Huey
    Have you bought a couple yet @Chief Stipe ? what Lot numbers?
