  1. I see on the loveracing site,that both jocks are now listed as 'out until further notice'. Surely if it was a case of not being able to pee to provide a sample,then surely that would of been done by now? or is their more too this whole thing?.
  2. I read earlier that Micky has been replaced on Tagaloa by one Craig Williams. My first thought was...i wonder how many rides Willow picks up by owners who have 'sacked' one jockey to go with him....happened earlier on with Surprise Baby going from Jordie Childs to CW,i'd say he's picked up a few rides like that over the years.And i guess in regards to Micky Walker,some would say that it's 'karma' after he jumped off Prince Of Arran to the Owen Glenn horse,which the name escapes me.
  3. The only club that has a security firm working for them. Seems a waste of time too me.
  4. Apparently from what i read both Cameron and Jason refused a drug test.So i'm guessing that would be grounds to been stood down.
  5. Can't go to Aussie when the boarders are shut. Have wondered what is up with Jason,as there have been more than one occasion where he hasn't fulfilled his engagements,and obviously hasn't ridden much in the new season. I hope everything is ok with him,as he's far too good not to be out there. I did also read that the RIU have stood down Cameron Lammas as well from tomorrow.
  6. Yip i think they should make the Hannon day like a 'premier' kind of meeting or at least similar to that of Kaikoura Cup Day,which someone else has mentioned,where they have at least 4 or so good open races,so it would be nice too see Oamaru's big day something akin to that.
  7. R1-15 Five Wise Men R2-4 Verstappen R3-2 For Today R4-9 Kingsdown Atom R5-15 DD's Super Stuart R6-4 Spicy Girl Becqui R7-5 Champagneandwine R8-4 John James Preston R9-15 Sister's Delight R10-16 Escargo R11-15 The Maroon Marauder R12-8 Foregone Conclusion
  8. Just like you can't spell you complete tosser. Definitely shouldn't be allowed to comment on a subject that you know nothing about you bloody gripper.
  9. I did read that he was going to be driven with one run at them,but he did look to be flat at the 400m. He did seem to pick up the bit again once in the straight,but it seemed short lived,not sure if he ran out of room down on the pegs.Should definitely get fitter with that run tho.

    Methven?

    Can't wait for Methven on Sunday,am sure that the track will be in pristine condition. May have to throw some tips out for the meeting and see who i can jinx.
  11. I personally think Kim drives better than some people give her credit for and having a dad as a champion driver probably doesn't help much. I've backed her plenty of times with a bit of success over the years and she can definitely foot it with those that have been named in this post,in my opinion,but of course we are all entitled to one of those.
  12. Kim definitely wanted that gap at all costs,certainly got very tight to say the least.
  13. Nice mate,it's the little things in life that matter.👍
  14. Yea he's been in Victoria for the last few weeks. Is based there for the spring carnival i think,mainly to ride the Bob Peter's owned horses,but has been picking up outside rides too,he managed to win the last at Caulfield yesterday.Good rider,tho i don't tend to back him alot,hopefully he can have a good carnival to make the move worthwhile.
  15. Thanks Dougie,would of been nice if Look Sharp went better to finish the day off nicely,but not meant to be. As much as i love Addington,it will be good to get to some other tracks,especially Methven.
  16. Yea i think i'm done with Look Sharp,looks like she hasn't strengthened up this campaign. Apart from her it wasn't a bad day on the punt.
  17. Thanks mate,will see how the rest go.
  18. Hopefully i don't jinx them,but here's a couple. R4-2 Mighty Reactor. Race not run to suit last time out,tho got home ok. Does come into the draw for this which is a big help,and on his good runs off the unruly lately,he does look tough to beat. Currently at 3.5 on the book,which i thought was a little 'short',but still worth a crack. R6-1 Forgone Conclusion. Been going solid races for a while,and just got nabbed last time out. Drawn the pole for this,which i think will be a big help.Comes against a couple of nice sorts,but i think his book price of 2.9 is way to short. R8-3 Cardinal Sin. Dead unlucky when pushing them over the line last week. First stand start here,but if he handles that then i think he wins. Currently at 2.1 on the book. R11-1 Look Sharp. Not happy when sitting parked last time out. Drawn to get the run here and can go close.Currently at 5.5.
  19. Yip not often i find myself agreeing with you,but i will on this instance. She is riding well,and i backed Junior and i thought i was gone at the 200m,but she kept on riding him out and they got the money.
  20. This is one interesting thread. Not really sure if there is any meaning to it all? it all seems to go off on different tangents, Tho for some reason i am drawn too it,not sure what that says about me.
  21. A shame that he's not the horse he was when his career started. I backed him at every start early on and i think he won 2 races quite quickly,then i think he had a mishap. Definitely hasn't come back like the horse he was,and i'm not sure if he ever will. Only good thing is that i haven't backed him since he resumed.
  22. His weight won't be helped when they go back to normal in the new season. Is a class act so hopefully he gets back into it in the new season.
  23. Anyone know what Jason is up too?.I know he was down to ride a few weeks back?,but got off them on some kind of 'exemption'. I know he's looking at heading to Aussie,but of course that probably won't be happening anytime soon,so hopefully nothing untoward has happened,love throwing my hard earned on him.
  24. I may of missed something,but has Matt 'appealed' the decision or does the disqualification not take immediate effect?. Only commenting as i notice him driving today.
  25. Debit card goes thru straight away.
