  1. Get into it Brodie. Money for jam the last few months. Nothing better than taking the bookies to the cleaners week after week.
  2. Yes I was counting on Gemma letting her in. Gave me a great collect on the first four.
  3. Yep allowed to win $2K on the win. Place punting I am lucky to get on through account. At the TAB no issues but anything over $250 in one go there is a delay while they think about it and sometimes get declined. Easier to get the girlfriend to put it on in $50 lots a few minutes apart, it saves a lot of hassles.
  4. You are lucky I can only get on for $10 on the place options sometimes.
  5. https://harnesslink.com/new-zealand/star-mare-amore-vita-dies-tragically-in-training/ Feel for connections as the foals out of this mare would have been worth a fortune in the coming years.
  6. I will take Barrier (3)
  7. Don't give them any ideas. Nek minute they will be spending 100,000s on drones and even more on training for drone operators.
  8. That's just my point. The race to race stipes reports raise more questions than answers half the time. Favourites driven to have no hope in winning but half baked excuses why they were not put in the race are accepted almost every meeting. Inconsistencies with inquiries where some get relegated or fined and others do not for the same offence. Questions asked as why horses perform out of the blue are a complete waste of time and mostly the answer is obvious and does not need questioning while others that look much more suspicious are not asked at all. I have no confidence in this area of the industry at all.
  9. And round and round the merry go round we go. They still not dealing with it! There will be another operation inca and you will still be saying the same thing next time around.
  10. You will not get a lot of participants saying good job to a failed investigation that cost the industry 10s of millions of dollars all for nothing. The only good thing that came of it was to expose the RIU's hopeless shortcomings as an investigative unit.
  11. Seems I was bang on with this comment from 5 years ago. As well as dragging the sport into disrepute these bastards have tarnished the reputations of quite a few people along the way.
  12. Ran his last 800m in 55.6 wide on the track as well.
  13. Performance of the year! 0.2 outside the NZ Record held by Republican Party on a fast Ashburton track after doing 50m at the start. Could be anything
  14. By my calculations I reckon the show day track was off by around 1.5 seconds every 1000m so for the 3200m on a normal fast Addington track you can take approx 5 seconds off that time. For me the whole two days of Cup and Show day were somewhat tainted by the condition of the track.
  15. Track is racing like it is a Heavy 8 at Addington the times they are running. Must be too much top on the track at the moment.
  16. Ideal Chevron unlucky for the umpteenth time today. Has pushed them over the line in half his runs to date.
  17. Now I think those times on HRNZ in the results are timed from the front at the 800m to the front at the winning post and there is no way they paced that in 55.9 and 26.8 Stride master has Franco indie at 56.94 and I hand timed in 56.9 so you can see the discrepancy. This is a common occurrence and everyone who looks at future form for the horses in this race are being deceived thinking they went a lot faster than they actually did. How can they get it so wrong so often?
  18. So much wrong with the HRNZ site at the moment. I hand time all the races because you can not trust the data at HRNZ and they have a very low accuracy rate on their times they come up with. Example:
  19. The opening odds on Swayzee were insane kept going at it every week until it dropped to $5
  20. Yes impossible to get that return on the tote during a normal day. On Cup Day you might get close if was finishing on the Cup Race.
  21. Where's the fun in that? Just kidding! My goal is not to win this comp, just finish in front of Brodie for the bragging rights. 🤣 Race 1. 5-16 Race 2. 5-6 Race 3. 10-11 Race 4. 14-16 Race 5. 3-9 Race 6. 7-8 Race 7. 2-7 Race 8. 1-8 Race 9. 2-7 Race 10. 4-14 Race 11. 3-13 Race 12. 6-9
  22. ALL CASHED UP(AUS) - hung inwards final turn before trotting roughly in the run home. When questioned regarding the performance Co-trainer/Driver B Hackett confirmed that he had encountered difficulty when attempting to shift wider rounding the home turn but was satisfied with the manner in which the entire finished the race off.
  23. One of the worst drives I have seen from a favourite in a long time. He would do a fair amount of time on the sidelines for that drive in Australia.
  24. Homeless man to Bank: Here is my deposit. Bank to homeless man: How do you intend paying the $500 a week mortgage given you have no job. Homeless man: Shit I hadn't thought about that 😂 FFS
  25. Shit service. TAB might be losing too much money and they are trying to stop the flow 😂 That's just the thing they are trying to increase turnover and you can not even open up the fucking fields to see the form. Muppets the whole lot of them.
