  1. GO Seth Hill, fine young man.
  2. Thanks for all the updates G man, stirling work 👍. That On The Money Comp will need an Audit for sure, putting an Aussie in charge of his own competition….no surprises there. What did I win, or am I breathing it? Marky boy bit of an also ran nowadays, like when I used to beat him up in my youth( he did kick on a bit though), we blessed with a bunch of good drivers. Good to see A Butt plying his trade as well, R&R Doo maybe in a heap of pain to make Cup, Leap To Fame as well 🥲 Looking forward to maybe a Cup or Slot day comp, I might even delve into my(deep) pockets and put up a prize, what you reckon?
  3. Okay, okay. Give me numero uno. Least I’ll have one winner, but which one? Race 2, Renegade’s is a really good horse.
  4. Too many knock-ons in AFL that go unnoticed for my liking.
  5. There’s a good article on HRNZ about the Pukekohe Punter, a relatively young fella having a go. Gotta love his passion, no negativity there. https://www.hrnz.co.nz/news/who-is-the-pukekohe-punter/
  6. I think it’s the final field that has been assembled being a FFA, open noms and the highest rated has turned out to be 91.
  7. I thought Swayzee went real good from where he landed early, never gave it away.

    Betcha

    Yes, this was quite unique two bro's going around. Think Zabadak, Henry Skinner, use to be the quick one, while Stampede was more a staying type. Remember Defoe being by Stampede, great wee horse, he was quick.
  9. Can he do it in our back yard Gamma? Going to be exciting to see him go around come November.
  10. I’d like to see a mile programmed consistently for the mares each meet, chance to get some black type on the page, though I’d look to be changing that 2m as well(faster) but that’s another argument.
  11. So because Brodie don’t like it, they should stop using it. I’m beginning to see its Brodie’s way or the Highway in aspects of life. Loosen up young man, more to worry about in the world.
  12. I quite like the drone view, from a horseman’s perspective.
  13. Viewfield Duke was a handy enough pacer for Stuey.
  14. Keep you eyes & ears open next couple of days, exciting times ahead.
  15. Saw the light, came across from the dark side.
  16. ...and flicking their whips Chief.
  17. Finally, you ran into my cunning plan Chief. So you agree showing the whip is enough, that’s impossible if you haven’t got one. Most of the time you want your horse on the bit gathered up, showing them the whip is enough, especially colts, most horses really.
  18. Keep going, you’ll be on the other side of the earth rate you going.
  19. Keep digging that hole deeper Chieftain, this is fun 😎.
  20. Got it Gamma Was there that day, remember MM going up to him to have him on and MP didn’t even turn and look, now that is arrogance!
  21. Mark Roy then maybe.
  22. Cecil Devine(average trainer & driver) once told us never stop driving a colt, wise words indeed keeping their mind on the job. Hate to be driving some I’ve driven without the persuader.
