  1. Did anyone just see Nath Williams on roll off the fence and struggle momentarily for a clear run and let little bro take the passing lane and win. Hard to take when you have a good nudge at $1.80
  2. That is gold hunter!!
  3. Yeah forgotten highway cost me a good multi collect today. Very boring racing today virtually all races were a dawdle up front then a sprint home, except forgotten highway couldn't jog a descent last 800. Very strange for Methven usually more exciting racing there
  4. Anyone heard this presenter go. Dear oh dear .........
  5. Hi All, Please find below a message from old mate on another site. Could this person actually be Mark Purdon? I can NEVER agree that one stables complete domination of harness racing in Australasia is a good thing for racing. I do actually agree with alot of what you say Far, but I can't afford to pay $100 + a day to race a horse with you Mark and Nat Not allowed to say what I like. Far too much must have the bluest tongue out there? I see that you posted this on another site, can you tell me when you "were not allowed to say what you like". As for the rest , i have been nothing but helpful in terms of communication with you yet you want to cast aspersions on my character on a site where i have no right of reply. Do you think thats fair???? Read full message

    Peter Lamb

    Peter Lamb a typical ex cop doesn't think he has to defend himself to anyone. In saying that at least sometimes he does try and get them to stand before releasing the tapes, some starts down south are pretty much running starts. As a punter all you ask for is consistency a pity P Lamb can't cop it sweet so to speak. In can remember the late great Jack Mulcahy calling horses in behind the tapes "Rightio you bastards up ya come" That's gold!!!
  7. Yes if u back Mark and Nat you should, but I seem to back their wrong ones. Had a good multi running through slingshot on cup day, massive run but beaten by stablemate. Did have a good collect off Copperhead Rose in the quaddie on show day tho. Is taking multi's the best way to attack things?
  8. Hey Brodster, Whats ur secret my punting is a disgrace, how do I start making money instead of keeping tab staff in work
  9. We had a horse with Jamie a few years ago, horse wasn't much chop but he is kind to horses when training them. From a driving on race day point of view i don't think he is any harder on horses than Mark and Nat. My point being Mark and Nat's horses virtually always push through a horrendous pain barrier to be driven as hard as they are and continually win, how they do this so regularly has got me and most others beat. Natalie doesn't mind getting serious with the stick either!! As a punter I would rather see a driver show vigor than not, I recall Timmy Williams just sitting quietly one day and one Matty Williamson bloused him out wide.
  10. Not allowed to say what I like. Far too much must have the bluest tongue out there?
  11. Yeah i had a good collect too, was a big run couldn't believe it held on and won. The whip rule is a tough one, as a punter you want to see the driver look to try and get the best out of the horse. A very good horseman J.T Keast
  12. Wasn't a bad drive on Prestonpans ......... A very progressive horse, but once he runs into Purdon's might look mediocre. Would do a great job in Aussie
  13. As per normal the brodster is on the money. Once again the patronising McCarthy at it again. I thought he was once a rather unbiased journalist but since doing his part time thing for Purdon I can stomach him biased opinion. I love this game but very soon the Kennards and co will be racing amongst themselves so David want have to check the weekly export list on HRNZ!!!
