  1. Tom, perhaps you should race a few yourself and maybe gain some understanding as to why it is pointless advising a possible change in tactics.
  2. Same rules in many countries A/NZ ONES ENCOURAFE BAD RIDING
  3. racing is a sport -only fools would think of the money. It's an adventure,
  4. Listen up young fella -Avondale was once a sea of mud and Ellerslie well drained and quite o k.-now reversed Avondale , like all big tracks, suits frontrunners [think Craddock !] Avondale costs around $700k per annum, they survive by rents received.

    Just like a cementary
  6. No worries -it's not stoatily different and you are weasily identified
  7. Yes Freda, 2000m not uncommon. Musty -imo times are best ignored because there is no way you can compare track conditions or track configuration -in your comparison that Dundeal pony would have blitzed our Easter field.

    Absolutely spot on ATA -I'm sure Thomas will be back from the Maldives soon
  9. Michael and Sheldon both quoted the English Grand National winner as being fifteen point two hands, if we wish to get decimal he is fifteen point 5. Fifteen two being 15 hands[4 inches] plus 2 inches Pedantic ? possibly, but these guys are paid professionals [lol]
  10. Sad to learn of the passing of Trevor =one of the good guys. Condolences to his family
  11. And as a note of their further brilliance they sent me an email at 3-01 pm TODAY inviting bets on races one and two TODAY -even young Thomas would enjoy betting a few hours after the races had been run.
  12. Desperate to halt a turnover decline the Tab has come up with a new trick -get paid out on your win bet even if it comes second. I note they have Trudi Thompson down to ride in the second at Te Aroha -our Trudes has been called all sorts of names but this is a new one.
  13. Thanks -found it, eventually.
  14. And where is it available online in an accepted format ?
  15. That is a sexist remark It maybe true but I have found him sensible and helpful on the one occasion I had to seek him out
  16. anz bloodstock news is an interesting daily email -it obviously has to rely on heavy advertising. Perhaps a NZ based similar enterprise could succeed. It does not cover fields/form, just items of general interest.
  17. I just figured that such are the vagaries of racing and picking winners that a non punter like yourself would front up with a show. If Thomas is as useless at picking them as you say then any tyro must beat him.
  18. And you -of course-will do the same
  19. Painkiller use a major -plus they hold meetings on many days
  20. A very promising rider- as his record attests

    Yes
  22. I don't see him as a WFA horse

    Sad to note the passing of David-condolences to Denis and Pam
  24. Yeah -obviously a leg pull
  25. You never heard of Kincsem ?
