Gammalite

Hi Freda . What do you think of a stable having a large International contingent racing under the same Banner? I want to back SANS DOUTE at Moonee Valley tonight R7 , but if the Trainer Mr Walker (and his regular team of Support staff) that get All those great results in NewZealand haven't put the 'polish' on him, his chances are probably reduced somewhat ? . (by dodgey Oz staff 😆) can mr Walker can't claim wins continually in both countries as we progress ? you can't be 2 places ?

HOPE TRIFECTA !! you bloody beauty . they are the GUN trotting trainers . Well set up by Ben to Chief , pouring the pressure on Miss Hackett up front at just the right moment !!! Junior drivers is So Good . Blair and Mark are getting a bit boring ..

Carter showing a great deal of nerve in the 8th !!!!!! Deciding to give his Nemesis Olivia a real run for the money with SWEET COCO. Olivia rallied well and came over the top with Millwood Nike in the end for a stonking $28 quinella . shame we forgot to take that one.😆 Now for the Hope family trot . Chief predicting Ben Hope to get in. But will Carter go nuts and give it a shake again ? nearly post time .............

How fitting for the Thread . $181 Trifecta . that's the way to do it !! 💰🍻 Olivia , Sam and Zac in the money as predicted 🍾 and great job on Millwood Nike too by Olivia ... a very nice treble driving for the young lass !!!

Nat is away , and Olivia T is here. At the Front of the field with WATERFRONT too, in the 7th tonight. Just as well for Carter D she's Not running in the Junior Drivers Championship ?? 😄 We love you Olivia !!!!

well that's a spanner in the works ..... Carter thought he was driving Gammalite by the look of it, and took the leader on at the bell 😂. so ran poor 4th with Carmalite in the end. 😪. (note to Carter = Don't drive like Gamma , you'll get nothing 😅😂)

Speaking of Armalight and Gammalite and Carter D. ..............If combine the 3 and you get CARMELITE in the 6th race about to go. sounds a 'Good' one 😁🍻💰. 14-1 double with Akuta in the Cup . bring It On 🏆🍾

if he holds his nerve. he might be a show. 😉 Did ya see Dance Till Dawn go for Carter in the 4th? . I've never seen a horse so far clear of the field like that turning in since Armalight days 😁. Absolutely donkey licked them by lengths.

Chase A Dream🍻 . home it goes with a Big finish in the third race . $9.00 some great odds.💰 money for Jam after the fast finishing win last week. Well done Olivia ! Natalie couldn't of done it better if she was there. keep it going ......

Today we see young Carter Dalgety racing in the Junior Drivers Championship , and about to Show his class and Experience to take the Title. Brodie will be proud to see his nominated talent get the Title as must be a great chance . Tonight drawing Dance Till Dawn for the countries leading stable (Dunn's) and she has won 4 at Addington . Seems a living certainty you would think? 💰 $3.40 sportsbet Race 4. The second heat for Juniors Race 9... that sportsbet says is a pace, but is a mobile 'trot' by the look of it. Carter is on 2 'Love is Everywhere' if Carter can outdrive the 3 rivals on the 'HOPE' stable trotters he could win it at $11. I'm on a 40-1 double for a few bucks for him to do it....🏆 The 'Hope' stable are gun trotter trainers though !!! . could even run the Trifecta ?? (so 3 'savers ' with them) Ben might help them drawn wide on the favourite for another stable lol 😁

I guess Imperatriz is still sound and everyone knows is a 'Chance' if did start in that Everest slot . so with the exposure about her racing schedule being often discussed and the Manikato the target, it is unlikely the bets would go on her in the Everest from anyone.... so no harm leaving her in the market until Final acceptances ?. The Nz trotting Cup is way worse . The double winner and current Nz Cup champion 'Copy That' has a knee injury and won't be starting. But is still in the Future markets .(sportsbet anyway) had the odds turned out to 9-1 (so they know something is amiss) to sucker punch a few dollars out of a few 'lucky customers' (well the opposite of this is the reality) who were thinking they were going to get a good price from the champ. and haven't heard about the horse not going to defend the Cup crown now, Just a poor money grab from them (bookies) ?. appalling really . I doubt they refund injuries horses. too hard to calculate the fraud that goes with that territory.

I'm laughing. Never heard that brought up ever . seems like just another furball 😹. Something to worry about , when there's nothing left to grizzle about as to why your horse lost. Someone should tell the complaintants the main reason the horse got beat they punted on was because every other runner on the track/ in the race was trying to Beat it to the Winning Post ..........and Not because a driver didn't have his/her 'race-face' on

Well without Nat about, and 'Marky' and 'Blair' both having a night off suspended, Olivia Thornley currently on 50 career wins, gets to almost certainly go to 51 on the nice filly Millwood Nike. thursday night. Olivia won the Nz Oaks last season in December (so has a Group 1 driving win 🏆) on the erratic filly (now retired) NO MATTER WAT. Olivia saying she was playing up in training recently, jumping out of gear and that, so they have given up on her. she was a bit of a headcase so surprised Mark didn't drive it himself instead of using the Junior driver during it's career. actually, Mark and Nat never drove that filly in a race !!! what an amazing stat 😳. An Oaks winner not driven by either of them is pretty crazy. No Matter Wat driven by Olivia for 12 of her 13 starts (5 wins) and Tony Herlihy drove her in The Grins Race this year (unplaced).

Sort of agree with you . she has taken off home here to Queensland before for weeks at a time. Wasn't driving in September , so Nat is some time 'away' again now. Greg O'Connor and Mick seemed real 'close' to them on other broadcasts i've seen of their show , where they crossed to them at home and everything quite chummy. I'm sure they must know what is going on ? part of their job. they talk to a LOT of people. if just vacation you think they would be able to say that Straight off the Bat you would think. oversea's trips might take a few weeks though...

Yeah I think they mean business alright. Just interviewing the/a stable rep on todays coverage from Pakenham gallops and he said they are starting with 20 , but want to expand immeadiately to 60 to 80 horses to get established quickly and recognised every week. So will train for anyone interested and not just the 'usual' TA syndicates and TA stakeholders .

thanks for that . Yeah have just seen it was a suspension for whip use on his drives last Friday winning on Chase A Dream (getting warning) and then 2nd on Franco Indie ( you were warned Mark the steward said, a mug like you should be on the sidelines ,where did you learn to drive ? ). stewards know best as always . Just watched The BOX seat. what a great show that is 🏆 . Mick and Greg are totally respectful to everyone , and chatted with youngsters Nathan, Olivia, Carter D, Ben Hope, Zac B amongst others so the future looks great with these young stars. All of them were excellent speaking too ... No one mentioned Natalie though so something is going on ... hopefully just a minor injury or something like that maybe.

Thursday night Addington see's some more stars getting ready for their Big assignments next month. As the unbeaten Millwood Nike resumes she is to be driven by Olivia Thornley this week. wow !! best of luck Olivia and congrats on scoring the Big drive !!! Millwood Nike on the trail of the NZ oaks (Derby too ?) Where is Mark and Natalie ? Does anyone know ? seems wierd neither is driving ........ Blair Orange is suspended so misses out. Cox probably got dragged as has in the past, been beaten on so many Allstars runners, so that is no surprise. Excellent to see Olivia get a Big chance !! (although ironically NOT invited into the junior drivers championship Heats Thursday with her 2 siblings. and Sam Ottley and Zac Butcher with 2 x ALLSTARS drives each as well . good drivers in general so should be in the money ?

Here's 3 wins for you . All winning in Cup week next month . Do you have a spare glass and I'll come over and celebrate the 3 winners with you? . A case of cold duck might get us through the week. ( One bloke has shares in all 3 of these . What a legend !! ) lucky bugger.

It won the previous weekend as well Chief . 6 days after scratching from the Maryborough Cup with the bad drip incident. ACT NOW is actually a real top-liner horse . Won the Victoria Derby in his year (very prestigious like the galloping one) and was actually placed 3rd in the last Interdominion Grand Final after winning 2 heats last December. a very handy 20 wins and 9 seconds from 42 starts with over half those being high class 'Group' races too. might very well be a chance in the $1,000,000 Interdominion in Brisbane in December coming ?. I'll keep you 'drip fed' on his progress 😎

Speaking of Mr Grimson , he might need a coffee boost today. Couple of very heavy supported runners last night at Menangle and neither won. Might be losing his touch ? Lightning Dan ran no-where in the first (although Bubba Scrub did get 2nd. and this Nz horse here too Double Down (who won at Addington last month. Backed like there was no tomorrow . Now stood down for 10 days . "CONDITION reported" lol........Trying too hard maybe ??? 😉😆 10 DOUBLE DOWN NZ F1 Jason Grimson $ 1.95 fav PRBT GO WI VXAR CR SDVC SD10D

yeah maybe .. now that does sound like 3 great observations . Geez Bosson making it tough on himself , charging back to Nz rides straight after. You would think maybe risking being a little travel weary at Hastings yesterday . Did win a race on Financier , but missed out with the 'Tycoon ' . Think they could of just left Mickey Dee on at MV. large amount of money in his (Bosson) pocket for winning G1 in Victoria I spose.

Far as I could see the Thread was about Imperatriz winning the Moir . You were in the Negative and wanted to lay like a chook. Everyone else thought she could win . and she did. very convincingly. so take defeat humbley and move on to The Manikato ... Can she win ? or are you going for whole basket of eggs ? 😅 😉

Track Record tonight for Imperatriz . and very easy soft win . A bit like the $1.60 on Nz's Best Trotter in the country racing at Addington tonight. Muscle Mountain winning easily. money for jam. Akuta 2nd at Addington in the Group 2 would of been 'nice' . but can't have all the luck lol.... The $1.75 on All my multi's looks good cruising into a big Brissy Lions winning weekend . Bronco's would also add to the 'fun'. 🍻🍾 Hope in Your Heart would be a fantastic good result in the Epsom now. Watch for her flying home late on (to win I hope)

The Stewart barn clearly intending to Trifecta the time-honoured Kilmore Cup tonight. But had to settle 2nd , 3rd and 4th as BETTER ECLIPSE claimed victory. BETTER ECLIPSE being the horse that popped over there and ran 4th in the BIG $1,000,000 RACE by Grins. KANGO who ran 6th in the Grins race stopped and ran 100m last . The kiwi's aren't as sharp as they used to be . Hopefully come good at Interdominion time in December . AKUTA beaten at Addington too, seems a bit of a surprise. Maybe building fitness? . wins the Nz Cup anyway 🏆👍💰

no worries mate . I'll roll with 'potential champion' then. I always call someone who performs at the very top level of any sport ( that is Group 1's in racing) and then WINS a champion of their sport. If the All Blacks Win . they'll be 'World Champions' . A huge honour...something they've already been in the past . YEah I think they (AB's) can Win 🏆. Give it a jolly good shake anyway ........🏆
