Taupiri Wonder

and in the pre-BOAY era: a fine Tasman Man

I met Gary on many occasions at Alex Park/Ellerslie Racetracks when he retired to Auckland.Yes,he was a Mainlander,& played first class cricket for Otago I think! Believe he spent time working overseas,then returned to NZ & an early McDonalds Franchisee. A keen sportsman,tabletennis in his youth & basketball administration in later years,combined with dual racing code interests. Hesi has noted three of his glamour part-ownership horses,another was Changeover.

Are you with One (ex Vodafone). I suggest Call Roaming (daily charge) would solve your problem. USA $9 & Bali $7. Naturally Brodie would recoup weeks worth of charges with single Place Bet.

I had no problems getting TAB Website & Betting earlier this year when on Warriors Trip to Las Vegas,& holiday in Bali.

Yes,May 2025 Report.

Ministerial Advisory Committee Report presented to Peters,then Cabinet this week,outlines a figure of $60million across 3 years from 1 August 2026. Did not specify a set figure for TAB to contribute.

Shame Finishing Line not in sight for Peters * Like Yesterday.

Whilst Dapto Lease ends 30 June 2026 The Greyhound Club have decided to Go Out With A Bang. Their Last Meeting will be The Group 1 Ladbrokes Megastar on Sept 11 this year.So Galah,you need to book those flights quick smart. I had pleasure of attending their famous Puppy Auction with contingent of Kiwi Buyers 15 odd years ago.

Gamma - looks can be deceiving 😄😄😄

TAB Driver's Challenge Odds: I looked few minutes before Race 1 & Blair Orange was paying $1.01 R1 2nd : R2 1st: R3 1st = 8 points & still paying $1.01 Going into Final Race Blair Orange Leading 11 points from Zac Butcher 8 points. A small 5 horse field saw Blair finish last on Mr Kaplan & Zac 1st on Jeremiah ** so points end tied at 11-11. So Orange backers get payout of $0.50c per $1 I presume.(never noticed what Zac was paying at any stage)😃

Brodie,I can only refer to my own holidays in Las Vegas & Bali. Call roaming allowed me full access to my TAB Account,Viewing Trackside,& Betting.

Just returned from 3 weeks in Las Vegas supporting my 'Woeful Warriors' Accessing a VPN is too technical for me. However,simple to access Call Roaming with Vodafone/ONE for $9 per day. With this,accessing NZTAB perfect,and made money to help subsidise my trip. Plus with Sky To Go,could watch all Black Cap Champion Trophy matches.

After a stellar career over 30plus seasons,Karen Walsh has called time on her training career. Her last remaining greyhounds went out the gate of her Tirau Kennels last week,ending a highly successful association she had with owner Gary Harding and racing under The Thrilling Banner. This property & operation was one of NZ's most Premier,and it's closure a sign of what lies ahead for all fellow owners and trainers.

Me thinks Denis Schofield would disagree with you on that!

You always had a good affinity with a stayer.
