  1. That’ll be Benjamin Butcher, not Zachary Gamma. Keep up please
  2. Please don't tip Riveered in the last, please!
  3. Hey Gamma Man! Where's my 6 points for running 2nd. Hard enough having Ol Marky Boy without pinching some points. Aussies, no suprises there.
  4. This looking like another Gammalite , Queensland pyramid scheme atm. Reckon MarkyBoy in on it.
  5. I use to beat him up as a youngster and he’s looking pretty lonely there with no friends so put Blackie down for Marky boy. C’mon MarkP, lift your performance, got a 4 point head start!(apparently )
  6. To many points there for my liking..
  7. Great train spotting there Gammalite
  8. That would make 3 winners in 39 years...was a very close thing though by the picture below😀. That was an exciting Cup, was'nt it? Just kept pulling more and getting further in front, then the owner had a heart attack in the birdcage I recall?
  9. I want to, I really do....
  10. Whatever or whoever you think will win it, they still have be driven good. Addington has found a few Aussie's out in the ensueing years, and have found wanting that last couple of hundred metres. Kerryn Manning brilliant with the step and run , much like Lightening Blue(2 winners in 35 years), so if he can get to the lead without working too hard, RnRD must be hard. He'll have the rest of the field driving against him, they'll all want to move in front of him I'm guessing. Hope he settles in okay, makes for an interesting Cup.
  11. Monkey King comes to mind Carabella was an exceptional filly
  12. She looks very stylish, hey Ranga?
  13. C'mon Rangatira, I think Cran has only won one VIC Oaks, not too long ago.
  14. Hi Galah Can you elaborate on this, when & what race?
  15. I just can’t, I just can’t, I just can’t help myself. Bulldog Hanover with Double D up.
  16. Surely Rangatira has got the chocolates by now, been brilliant all week! Gammalite was a brilliant stayer but how much more pain can Gammalite take? We’ll find out.
  17. 👏
  18. Top named horse that one winning there, the real deal. Maybe 2nd horse should be called Place4U.
  19. Come in Rangatira 😎 , Oamaru right there.
  20. That shot there of her is more like the Queen Consort of Addington, under the Norwest sunshine of Canterbury, with the biggest saddlecloth number, just about to do battle with the horse drawn 1.
  21. When she came past me at the 200m mark in ‘that ‘ Cup, she had a length on the leader….what a time to be a young enthusiast. Learnt a lot that day from the man driving the winner, Cool Hand Luke indeed.
  22. Yay, you came through Ranga, double points as well.( Just name that ex NZer that sat parked from the mile).Go you good thing! Gamma be broke soon. Is that The Fixer doing his thing?
  23. Mmm. Looks like a Bettors Delight to me. Thanks for the clues Gamma. His would have to be one of the biggest runs in the Cup ever and not win wouldn’t it?
  24. Last I heard HJ, Geoff was throwing passenger bags around Auckland Airport. Top bloke Geoffrey, self made from a tough upbringing in Chch. Never took a backward step, gotta respect that.
  25. Geez, that’s no good. You’ll be down to your last crate of Beaujolais soon at that rate. NRL final. Penrith by 20-30 points?
