  1. Frankly I gave up betting on NZ races years ago.Melbourne and Sydney and the odd carnival in Qland get my money. Too much cronyism,amateurism in NZ.Different level.
  2. my hoodoo jockey in NZ was always M.Walker....cost me plenty...
  3. Nice ride by Damian Lane on Daisies...posted and used his initiative to go around and lead. Bit like races where jockeys try and restrain their mounts...I like the old Darryl Bradley method...take off before the turn. Being an armchair critic is so easy I guess.
  4. Been that way for along while. Senior jockey disappointed for a run in a minor race ,puts the cue in the rack. Keen young apprentices ,especially over sprints are better value.
  5. Had a nice trail...he tried to restrain it and blew it.
  6. Brock Ryan is an apprentice worth considering imo. Seems to have that X factor.
  7. I'll concede I may have been a bit harsh...that Brisbane run and his last start in Melbourne were shockers.
  8. R3 looks his best chance and priced appropriately.
  9. Forgot about that one...albeit the weakest Tancred you could gather ,not the quality of a CP. I'm thinking more of his poor Brisbane campaign.
  10. Never lived up to that CP form in subsequent starts.
  11. Tough race.I think Incentivise will press on. Going for some value-Port Guillaume,Shes Ideal,The Chosen One. Be pissed if Young Werther wins after EJ nutted it at Randwick when I thought it was home.
  12. Couldn't find anything. An interesting thread for you to bump...you must enjoy being eviscerated. One other thing worth a mention in light of some recent comment by you is this....' 'This has nothing to do with the data that supports the decisions that were made. All you are quoting is surveys on people's opinion not fact. '=so sometimes you do like facts/stats and sometimes...you...don't! lol.
  13. Let's keep it simple...did NS settle for JMac this prep?Try yes or no...its that type of question.p.s my surge is because you have lifted my ban,imposed because???? I have been 'interested in racing for 40 years.
  14. Have you selectively altered an original thread? Where is my statement you refer to? I have read the posts and see nothing about 'predictions'. You don't have issues with....Control' do you...Chief.
  15. He has had 2 runs this prep for a 1st and a 2nd-settled both times. His last 5 starts are 3 wins and 2 seconds...sorry about that ...Chief.(bloody stats)Lol.
  16. Please tell me what my 'predictions' were and I'll let you know!
  17. NS has settled for JMac this campaign. Blinded by stats!...sorry about that ...Chief=reality vs percetion.
  18. 'Although I'm not sure he is the best rider for Nature Strip as he doesn't seem to settle for JMac much the same as Verry Elleegant doesn't.' 2 multi grp winners Nature Strip -$9million earnings rated the worlds best sprinter. Verry Elegant voted HOTY-earnings $9 million plus Go figure!
