Common sense finally? Could be enough to drag me back to Ellerslie. They ruined the infield with all this stupidity. It used to be a wonderful day out.

Race of the season by the look of it. Fantastic field and weather looks like it's going to come to the party. Loads of decisions to make as the field is chock full of chances.

Very true but you have the feeling that the track didn't really suit her. No surprises here, she's looked a star since she started racing.

Sorry Weasel that wasn't directed at you.

Poor comment. She was already competitive over there as an immature 3 year old. Gee you guys love bagging good horses don't you?

Ellerslie actually looked remarkably good.

It might not be perfect but nice to see a reasonably comprehensive 8 page liftout today. Almost like the old days - well done to those responsible.

Wingatui has a Good 3. Might be best option.

Bloody small world. I've known Paul for years. Worked with him at IBM. Have lost touch with him unfortunately.

Hi Martin You're not a brother of Paul McGrath by any chance are you? He was someone I used to work with in IT and he had a younger brother called Martin. Not a pisstake a genuine enquiry. Peter Lane

Kudos to the dedicated employee taking track readings on Xmas Day. Still a Heavy 10 at 3.37pm. 60mm rain last 24 hours 16mm rain today. Anyone bagging the track should reflect on those figures. Prediction revised to Slow 7. Strong SW kicking in will give some drying.

Losing a bit of confidence about it right now. Peeing down in Wellsford right now. Oh well, never hurts to be an optimist. It certainly more fun than the alternative.

Heavy 10 at 8.38am today. Good breeze and sunshine today and hopefully afternoon showers don't come to much. I'm still optimistic the track will be Dead but I'm a glass half full sort of bloke.

I got it at 51 yesterday, Oh, merry Xmas to anyone else who's sad enough to be on BOAY this morning ?

I'm certainly not trying to tell Chief what he should do with his own site but, to my mind, this is a new venture and there will necessarily be some modification to your initial thoughts about letting everyone say pretty much what they like. I love the idea of free speech but it's a question of balance. I don't have any answers really. At the end of the day you will run this the best way you see fit and I'm fine with that. Total kudos because these things always attract idiots and lowlifes and handling them is an ongoing problem.

Hmmm how come he's still reacting to posts?

Agree in principle but why should everyone be obliged to just ignore the constant crap. If you're not careful you will find it will just drive a lot of people away. Thomas really doesn't worry me but that Starman bloke just gets on my tits (moobs?)

Clearly an issue Hesi. The easiest way to sort it is for those of us who are serious (or semi serious in my case) to just ignore the two trolls. Easier said than done ?

Whatever Don.

Maybe we need to patent the BP astrological system. Can't lose surely ?

2017 was a pinnacle year, with 4 wins from just 10 investments. Win dividends of $7.50, $12, $4.20, and $9.80 from the sensation on Melbourne Cup day last year that had been predicted 5 years 4 months and 3 days beforehand. The 2018 slowdown means we haven't had a winner since December 2, 2017. No great cause for concern, with only 4 losers in the period. I'll leave you all to draw your own conclusions from the looney's website.

It's because the farkwit reckons he used his astrological system to tip it. Certified looney , best ignored like the other moron.
