  1. maybe they are do you have some evidence they could not be
  2. out or the last 8 G!s the AS have won 7 with 6 different horses They just keep producing top horsees And good on them !
  3. You weird On the blood spinning ?
  4. Some ones got to win why not the the best horses. Do you have a problem with that
  5. Very good win by self assured. 3.59 leading all the way. Had challengers but fought them off. Now the No1 All Stars horse? Come along way in a short time. A good race to watch plenty of moves and challengers.
  6. Picked by the Whale so TAB have shortened it and all "The Beleivers" are on
  7. Duh! Youve lost the plot today or too much Tequilla Sunrise.
  8. There will be some good Fixed odds if you get on early Boss and hunt around like a Terrier I think the Stars are out Tonight so ther could be a beautiful Tequila sunrise tomorow.
  9. So there are still a few people betting despite the naysayers saying no one interested in Auckland trotts or taking the small divs. That loss is not thw dollar punter but BIG betters who are obviously still about and going strong. Unlike the bookies at the mo.
  10. Hes raced in 9 G1s with a best mr time of 1.48.7 and best winning time of 1.50.2 He has had leg problems over the past year but if hes right they had better look out! http://www.harness.org.au/media-room/news-article?news_id=42084
  11. Atomic Red to lead all the way
  12. They have a very good and dedicated committee. They have The Best TAB in Aus who support the local racing. They have some very rich sponsers involved in harness racing. They have a dedicated racing radio station which promotes WA racing and has 3 hrs of intensive interviews and competions every morning. It all makes for money being spent on stakes hence the big and regular horse buying from NZ and the eastern states. Its not just the Bonds and Halls who are buying. There are many other very good trainers with money and backers who are purchasing. Very healthy and strong harness racing code.
  13. ???? What was wrong with his drive. Pete Ferguson should have handed up . Cost his horse any chance of winning by not takng the trail. Finnished 4th and would have either won or finnished 2nd.
  14. Race 6 at Ascot. The trot. Not very often owners would have three in the same race and the first three favs Maybe some of the AS owners but even for them unusual to have three. Go GLOBE DERBY. Best of luck on your fave Dark Horse having ist run for 2 years
  15. Unfortunately Brodie this is not confined to NZ racing or even racing in general. Have been to many venues overseas esp in Aus as you know and on some nights there would be luckly to be 50 people there with only one or two tote operators open, one bar and buggar all food. You cannot blame the AS barn for this. People would rathr watch at home or in their local, including myself. There is so much coverage now worldwide that it is a lot more comfortable to have a beer and food where ever you are watching have a chat and do other things between races if you wish. How they entice people back oncourse is another matter. As CP has said they dont need people on course for funding anymore as its done by bulk funding so may be they dont care as long as the overall turnover is ok. A top line, unbeaten, charismatic horse will bring people on course to see it eg Winx, Black C, Smoken Up, Blakes AF and even the like of Lord Mudule, Lordship, Noodlum, Clurage UF etc etc. Unfortunately we dont have any of those around at the mo or for a long while. Maye UM Collect was going to be one. Anything that shows potential seems to be off overseas where they often fulfill that. The same with rugby and alot of sports. They are all worried about crowd attendance except for the major events. We are a lazy bunch of couch potatoes these days. Maybe Sky, Trackside etc has more to blame than the AS barn winning races.
  16. A work in progress. Used to throw himself on the ground kicking and biting. Getting better and more tractable every start. Not being rushed as still learning. They have bigger fish on the menu as it learns. Will be more than a usefull horse ---- if it stays in NZ
  17. So you watched two races tonight? Pity because there were some very good preformances tonight.
  18. Have been back for at least a couple of months. Love them easy money
  19. Lookout for Jive at Auckland then?
  20. Where can Jive go now after that abysmal effort. There is only one option M House and Manawatu. I was probably like you rubbing my hands after 600 meters. Gutless effort.
  21. ignoring a few of my favourites like Appearance, Steel Dust, DD's Well done Happy on race one. Winner and quinella, but OH DEAR on race 2. Always happens when you stop backing them.
  22. Thought that for a while. Just look at its breeding. Is only going to get better and better. The next Hope star!
  23. Now two from two in Aus after winning again on Wed.
  24. Thankyou. You made an assumption that was incorrect.! I WAS NOT AWARE
  25. I asked a simply question. All I require is a simple answer to a question Idont know. None of this Bull**** you are spinning. I am not aware. I have not said you told any porky And I never mentioned Blood S. Come on just a straight answer Pleeese. Stop running around in circles you are getting me giddy.
