the joys of fast fibre... via 60" tv and two laptops...

(asking for a friend!) at what age does that old kick in? ps, we don't waste a cent of the likes of $ky etc, know how to stream all sports for free (legal to)

Actually, try using the ruling class, who as well as having economic control, also have hegemonic over info and propaganda that is acceptable within the industry! racing is a classic for understanding that sort of thing! ps, they love having others! chirping the party line for their interests...

In 95 when I spend a year 'researching racing ownership in nz', where I had full access to all info in the NZRC Head Office Library, it rather appeared that here was a Industry with very little 'research', (a few Royal Commissions, lots of moaning contained in them!) almost nothing on the costs etc or owning etc.. I believe that was because, especially in the first 30 years of the TAB's life, it was very much, CASH being counted at the end of the day, a few expensive here and there. odds on? there were never any costing done...

pardon, Are you serious!

It seems to me that a lot of the changes are on the sports side, for which the sport of baseball there are a couple of nice little tweaks. You can now bet on so many events for each match, of course! the majority of those types of bets are totally on offer for your average dumb punter! Another thing I'm not keen on is the way that at the top of the page, it always seems to open with the likes of your balance being shown, you have to hide it manually! With the old system one could click hide and if you wanted to show it then you could click show! Only a small thing but strange that they seem to have taken that option away?

Finally got a reply. "Thank you for your email and apologies for the delay in getting back to you, We have received a lot of feedback surrounding the lack of the full screen format and the team are looking into this! Please bear with us whilst the team look through all the feedback received over the last couple of weeks. Ngā Mihi, "

Jason Kelce @JasonKelce I’m sorry everyone, wasn’t trying to get people riled up, I really thought it was just known that in the 70s steroid use was rampant. I’m not trying to take away from Secretariat’s, or anyone from that eras legacy. You’re right, without proof it is unfair to assume these things publicly, I apologize. 4:22 AM · May 10, 2024 · 2.8M Views

Jason Kelce apologizes after suggesting Triple Crown winner Secretariat used performance-enhancing drug The former Eagles center took some heat from horse racing fans this week Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce found himself in deep trouble with the horse-racing community this week. Kelce suggested that Triple Crown winner Secretariat was on steroids when the horse went on its historic run in 1973. Kelce's comments even drew a response from the family that owned Secretariat. During a recent episode of the "New Heights" podcast, Jason and Travis Kelce were discussing the latter's experience at the Kentucky Derby. When the topic of Secretariat came up, Jason said the horse was doing some major doping when it shot to the top of the record books. "It's not that wild because Secretariat was juiced to the gills," Kelce said. "What are we talking about here? Secretariat just so happens to be right in the heart of the steroid era? In 1973, every NFL player, every baseball player, they were juicing to the gills? You don't think Secretariat was f--king juiced to the rafters? Of course it's the fastest horse of all time. They didn't drug test Secretariat the way they did Mystik Dan." Shortly after that episode was released, Kelce found himself in some social media battles with some of Secretariat's biggest supporters. While admitting it is "impossible" to know whether Secretariat really was on steroids, Kelce pointed to the horse's enlarged heart as further evidence for his argument. All of that discussion reached the family of Secretariat owner, the late Penny Chenery. John and Kate Tweedy, the son and daughter of Chenery, wrote that their parents raised and trained Secretariat with the utmost integrity. "The fact is Secretariat was never given performance enhancing drugs," Kate and John Tweedy wrote. "Indeed, both our mother Penny Chenery, who managed Secretariat, and our grandfather Christopher Chenery, who bred him, were morally committed to the rule that horses should only be given healthy feed, water and such medical treatment as is required to maintain health." After plenty of back-and-forth, the former NFL star issued an apology on social media, saying it was unfair to accuse Secretariat of cheating without hard evidence. Kelce might have finally made some peace with the horse-racing community, but he should probably keep his distance next weekend when the Preakness Stakes run in Baltimore. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/jason-kelce-apologizes-after-suggesting-triple-crown-winner-secretariat-used-performance-enhancing-drugs/

NO reply yet....

pondering how that lost be made up??? Fine$ and Interest$ are X? Punters Winnings?

thanks for that, I wonder why they would do something like that? driving people sky$ way? It will be interesting to see what the TAB comes up with? including suggesting you approach.

we have found a problem! we run trackside through a computer, cabled up to 60", click the full screen icon and away we go! No! can't get it to go full screen on laptop either! emailed help desk yesterday, still waiting a reply.

where the terms and conditions for the E takeover ever presented in public domain?

tick! And I recon as we age that 'that time' speeds! I think the 'ever challenge' for anyone with a few goes around the clock! re engaging with Racing currently, is how to be squeezing some fun and enjoyment out it! sometime easier said than done....

Do any Clubs/courses nowadays offer free wifi?

A serious question, So much room at that course, but 'choose' to put that sigh up?

lol... similar... perhaps a nice title for a thread: "Horses that have made me Cry!" perhaps two divisions would be needed! in pain and in joy!

The eagerly awaited documentary on arguably the greatest horse in Australian racing history – Winx in all her equine glory! Winx is the Phar Lap of the modern era and holds the world record for her spectacular 33 race winning streak. Her first foal sold for a record breaking $10 million. It all reads like a racing fairy-tale, but the story behind the phenomenon is more complex. With unprecedented access to Winx and the team who made her a champion, award winning director Janine Hosking (Mademoiselle and the Doctor, SFF 2004; 35 Letters, SFF 2014; I’m Not Dead Yet, SFF 2011) and Winx biographer, Andrew Rule, weave a cinematic journey to reveal the spirit of a champion as she faces her greatest challenge. Join us for a special World Premiere gala screening on Friday 7 June! https://www.sff.org.au/program/browse/a-horse-named-winx?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR1YIXt50ow3gLVxK9fWZLBUg2S2JlFP2gzIdrXUpYm7NajpKlmbZLQV76w_aem_AYb6pgOHHlvXN2vgcLrXwsBCjdw9fdSLNpAWYqiBdLF8SjcTA27dkhDRpM5Sw3ijGup7zoDnvOvluwE18fpvqIv7

Asking for a friend at the Slowlearnersclub: Who be that FIVE?

Top syndicating stables being? TA, Marsh, Pike? Pitman in the south? On a practical level I'm sure the likes of TA will cement in more to be trained in AU.

It will be interesting to see how this contradiction develops. I wonder how any horses are being ruled out? Who is going to be pissed off?

Perhaps way more interesting would be to see the Starting nominations? 😋

As a rider I thought he was underrated by many. It was great to see him get that G1 for TA late in his career. A career, which I'm sure, if he had been 3/4/5 kgs lighter would have taken him overseas! Dedicated, a genuine love for riding! and a nice bloke to go with! Bet he has better results than that last fella!
