  1. Lots of news lately denouncing the lying, cheating NZ Police force. One senior police officer's cock has cost him his career and 500k per year.
  2. Originally from the Taieri Plains area of Mosgiel and was a neighbour of three-time Wellington Cup winner, Great Sensation. An entertaining and eloquent poster here. R.I.P. TAB For Ever.
  3. That is the key, squire. Few jockeys ride for luck on a favorite, especially in a Melbourne Cup. Kingston Town was a near champion who got beat cause the jockey mistook the clock tower for the 800 metre mark ! Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.
  4. Yes, as good a ride as you'll see in a staying race and she looks good on a horse. Trifecta wasn't hard if you anchored Half Yours.
  5. Despite the nonsense this curious individual espouses, there's no chance of bigoted prejudiced clowns with parrots on their heads stopping horse racing, and whips will never be banned as jockeys won't ride without them. When a horse kills or maims a person the horse is never convicted, yet when a horse receives a life threatening injury doing what it's bred to do, the likes of that woman with a parrot on her head want racing eradicated. It wouldn't surprise me if some of these bunny hugging rednecks are committing bestiality with animals !
  6. Don't have to read anything, I've walked the walk. You and your disciples are shit stirring trolls who have no idea.
  7. Nonsense, of all the wank images you've posted, there wouldn't be one where the horse wasn't going forward or improving its position under the whip. You and that woman trainer from Riccarton wouldn't have a clue.
  8. The majority of Broughton/Ellis mounts wouldn't have required the whip, neither would've many of the Kerr/Thistoll trained runners. Kerr didn't take a horse to the races unless it could win! Why don't you send your slow bastards around without the (soft) whip, then you'll see how valuable even a feathered whip is?
  9. Gold is predicted to reach $8,000 NZD an ounce, more than double the price it was two years ago!
  10. Yes, but they wouldn't use Zabeel because they reckoned he was too expensive (200k from memory) at the time. They tried the Star Kingdom line of sprinting stallions at a time when Zabeel was at his peak which weakened their breed somewhat in my view. Grosvenor was from the Sir Ivor/Sir Tristram sire line as was Zabeel but Zabeel had the prepotent maternal sire line of Northern Dancer/Nureyev. These bloodlines coupled with the fact that Zabeel wasn't over-raced would've further strengthened the Dennis breed IMO, but I'm no breeding buff.
  11. Good eulogy from Bellew. Imagine if the Brothers had have crossed Zabeel with those good race mares, progeny could've been anything.
  12. Nonsense, Muldoon would've laughed at them as he would've laughed at you preaching to the ignorant on feather duster whips. The world is full of idiots.
  13. Wouldn't hold a candle to Pitman senior, not in the same street. Pitman senior should've been a CJC board member long ago, certainly before Jelly Williams. Mills is a top shelf buffoon.
  14. Go to - https://beeswax.co.nz/product/oxalic-acid-25kg/ (they're the cheapest) and order 25kg of Oxalic Acid, mix the acid liberally with (preferably) boiling water and apply by stiff bristled brush, leave for 12 to 24 hours then water blast with a pressure washer, seal if you wish. Note, Oxalic Acid is an incredibly versatile aqueous solution that is safe to use.
