  18. chances are you are on the money but your character reference will hold little weight if this actually gets to trial
  19. sing out if you want me to send your betting disguises to you in bali
  20. Michael Guerin‏ @GuerinSports 11m11 minutes ago More Multiple sources have now confirmed to me leading NZ driver Blair Orange has been arrested, charges with race fixing or similar and released on bail. He won last season’s premiership. Police press conference in 5 minutes.
  21. Police executed search warrants on stables in Canterbury, Invercargill and Manawatū. Figures interviewed included Natalie Rasmussen, John Dunn, Blair Orange and Nigel McGrath.
  22. Christchurch car industry king pin, racehorse owner and major punter Graham Beirne, speaking to Stuff from Bali where he is on holiday, said he had heard about the raids on Canterbury trainers and knew police wanted to interview him. "I'm a suspect put it that way. The police have been to our place this morning but I'm not there. All I have to say is one word: nonsense. "I don't know where it's coming from. If they are talking race fixing, it's nonsense. It doesn't happen, so we'll see what they come up with but they are obviously taking it seriously because they have raided stables all over the place." Four police cars and 12 police officers had come to his Fendalton house to execute a search warrant on Tuesday morning and apparently seized computers and devices, he said. "There is nothing to worry about. "I am a big bettor. They would pick on me probably because three or four years ago there was an article in the Sunday Star Times which said I was the most successful punter in New Zealand and they couldn't beat me, and that was true at the time. "But I haven't made any money in the last two years. The TAB records will show that." Race fixing may have occurred in the distant past but checks and balances in the current system made it too difficult, he said. The other issue in the industry was doping but he didn't know anything about that. Beirne said he would not return immediately to New Zealand and planned to come back as scheduled on Saturday. "By all accounts they are going to meet me at the airport." He said he was "flippant" about the investigation but "I feel sorry for the trainers involved. I feel bad for the guys and the people they are interviewing. It's their livelihood. It's terrible for them". "It tarnishes all their reputations even if nothing is found which there won't be." He didn't know if any other big punters were part of the investigation. "I'm a reclusive creature so I don't know who else. "It's a game for me although you always need the money. I like beating the system. It's only pacers and trotters." He had about 30 horses that were trained by a number of trainers, he said. "I don't need to race fix. I've got the pension now."
  23. I can see an upside for you in that. I can't imagine many people with half a clue thinking that the dunn and purdon stable are getting their heads together to fix races let alone with 6 other canterbury stables did they raid 5 stables over blue magic only to find how much blue magic
  24. yes they are kinda competent compared to some authorities
