sounds like its time for Sherlock @Thomas onto the case!!!! 😇

best of luck with that sort of thing! for what its worth, I've been a fan of the mare for a while! she presented 'nice', I was surprised how she had been priced. very much a watching race! I actually pondered a small nibble at the horse that look ready to run a good race! Shamus, at one stage he was around 12/1 to run 1/2, got distracted! doh! ps, there will be other chances to cash on on the mare coming up! ps. by chance! I was at opt the other day! the nice worker was keen to tell me that i have Excellent results! for me age! thankful for that!

in a tight finish I would like my horse to be trained to do this!

umm, my eye saw her find her feet, then she settled into where she was,,, then the race played out! turn the page.

??

YIP, especially so when one of the 'talking heads' gets all excited and a 'fashionable' jock is on, often late value can be found via something that drifts!

ORCHESTRAL (C Grylls) - Slow to begin. When questioned, the rider advised that the mare had been unsuited by the pace of the race and that he had been satisfied with the performance. Underwent a post-race veterinary examination which did not reveal any abnormality

Where is John based nowadays? I see he was at Grey and Ref...

Of course as per, you’re very welcome to hang out in the usual GA spots of the Newmarket Room or the outdoor seating of the Ellerslie Stand and there’ll still be plenty of space for your picnic blankets/chairs on the lawns adjacent to the stabling complex.

A note for TAB account holders who can usually gain access to TAB Winning Post on racedays, this area will be exclusively reserved on TAB Karaka Millions night for a private function.

'coasters' are a loyal lot, the 3 meetings are a good excuse to head back to coast!

It would make for interesting reading a list of meetings that still have those! Noting ORC advts for boxing day mentioned NO BYO, I think they said 2000ish were oncourse..

my mum father won it in 1926 as a trainer!

hard to disagree. gone are all the 3200m and was the NZ Ledger one when they started (79)?

Yes the Reality of the Years of Massive work that has been needed to be even able to be a profession Jockey has said! That is it! I hope he transitions well back into life of eating and enjoying himself! Some don't! He sits rightfully in racing HOF! and deserves to be in any Sports HOF!

I don't mind, though my sharing is around perhaps more on negating losing bets.. that 'churned..' is I think being speed up on 'racing' with the moved away from tote w&p. Those newbies I presume are made up of sports and racing and I presum the racing ones get churned quicker now a days. I don't have my head around 'sport', though it this year paid out way more for me that my racing profit. that be me! though for me to grind out a profit via racing! it has got way more harder and frustrating!!! in that I Need to be Seeing any Horse before the actual race! The more I get to 'see', the more chance that I will bet! With the 'a race every 5mins' approach we have now I just Don't see how I can justify the time and effort to be 'finding a winner'! I did hold out hope that 'we' would actually get a Dedicated Channel, especially for Group racing days!!! A few camera streaming we even be OK!!! Sigh, tell me there is a chance of that happening... for the record! my betting nowadays is very much 'hobby', though one that if the truth be known! way to much time and effort is spent on! a profit earned! but not to sure if the ergonomics stacks up! especially moving forward! re Sports betting, two thoughts! 1. obviously in time in will engulf 'racing' (insert Sunset..) 2. personally, (sitting here retired), if I was going to try and pay the rent via Punting then 100% I would be focusing on Sport. It was mentioned in the vid about, 'is there a sweet spot' in where you are making a profit! What are some of the factors being in play for that! for me! in racing and now in sport! it's Information about 'how well X is going' and just as important 'how well is x Not going'. For racing, for me, that has a strong Organic factor! That sort of thing changes over time! For sport, for me, it has meant I have radically changed historically what sport$ have been involved! as in rugby and cricket! both now 100% dropped, to now mlb and nfl, both are way more transparent that rug/cric and racing.. lol, a current interest re 'betting' is cognitive bias!

copilot says, horse races in nz that have lost their group one status? Yes, there have been a few notable horse races in New Zealand that have lost their Group 1 status. One prominent example is the Auckland Cup, which was downgraded to Group 2 status after the 2020/21 season. This change was part of a review by the New Zealand Pattern Committee to ensure races meet certain standards1. Other races that were downgraded include the Easter Handicap (from Group 2 to Group 3) and the Rotorua Cup (from Group 3 to Listed status). Additionally, several Group 1 races for two and three-year-olds, such as the New Zealand Derby, NZ 1000 Guineas, NZ 2000 Guineas, Levin Classic, and Manawatu Sires' Produce, have received warnings for not meeting the minimum race rating expectations. It's a bit sad to see these changes, but it's all part of the effort to maintain high standards in horse racing. Do you follow any particular races or horses?

Brilliant Career!

doh! I didn't bet into the race! scared off by the weather! thought the track was going to play a lot slower than that time! I think class won through on the day!

smart buy!

something so shown in that video series on Ciaron Maher Stables
