Amber Hoffmans training him now I see,still at Waikouaiti,he continues to attract ones attention.

Who's got him now? Just to add ,Dennis O Connells old war horse Alexy will tomorrow set a record for most races ever,everytime he races from now on he sets a new one.

Riverton jan1,wingatui jan 16,you do wonder if the southern trainers will enjoy the break

They have jammed those days in tight,no room for error as in weather.

Kind of funny Riverton getting a new year day when talk of closing course,I think they have raced at new years before,always when Omakau was about the 10th of jan Southland had some new year racing.

Very few meetings in Canterbury following cup week,very few at Ashburton last week,spose Timaru and Kurow will suffice for a while,Waikouaiti and Omakau gone as numbers for both meetings dwindled in last year or three,Riverton might be a good day,all 15000 races but will probably just be Otago south runners,or maybe not,as for the coast, numbers will be interesting.

No they will be queing up at the foodbank for a xmas roast spud. His hot tip has gone cold. Assuming it is a he,might have been an old lady just spending up her cash before family get it lol,mind you if you were gambling to get rid of all ya money everything would probably win. I might try that philosophy,no other one has worked before lol.

Might not be anything in it now

Might be an old age pensioner just having a flutter

I had a laugh the other morning back to zb again,guy rung up saying the day before he went for a morning run,70kms,7 and a half hours,I wonder if that was one way,then I spose he had to turn around and go back home again.

On a more mundane note I was listening to zb in the small hours,some old lady rung,she was so hacked off there is no trackside radio these days,I'm sure there is a silent majority of race fans feel the same,just a comment to change course from intercourse to racecourse.

Nah the bi sexual donkey couldn't decide whether to have a he in the morning or a haw in the afternoon

Here's one for yas all,has anybody heard the one about a bi sexual donkey?

At times like these the real perverts start to emerge☺

Frank was the name of the guy in a comedy called some mothers do have em,it was around in the seventies,funny at the time,I've actually got two CDs of mr spencer,there was some of his clips on you tube but alot have seemed to have dissapeared,not everything that is on you tube stays there,either is a copyright issue or people just take it down.

I know the age of a person by seeing if they know who Frank Spencer is.Do you know Mr Spencer?

Sometimes Karrots,(carrots)and lesbians go hand in hand,you could say a perfect fit😂

I'm not a lesbian either aye

Karrots are u a fem,I'm confused?just for the record book I'm a man,as frank spencer said lol

Gee I was just gunna sit down and watch the odd race from Addington,a bit late,shit happens.

Harness racing is definatly becoming a family affair.

Gee just checked Cambridge results,same stakes same size fields as Forbury,it is what is but I didn't realise Lionel Messi was at Cambridge last night,could have been a promoters dream,to the uneducated.

I do believe that when we compare say harness racing from mid 70s to today I think more than ever it has some real big issues facing it and there are questions over if I can climb back up again Alexandra Park struggling to get enough horses to run a proper meeting. No grass racing in the north,very popular in Canterbury Almost complete shutdown in north south of Cambridge An increase in average meeting,a big decrease in top meetings. Almost was a shutdown in courses from Oamaru to Winton.just as well Forbury got reinstated A congested calandar meaning some clubs (Forbury)is one specific end up running very ho hum days. Even some of the programming is odd,do Motukarara need a rating 55 cup race at same time as Westport race rating55 cup(note size of coast main races last few years) Even no Saturday night meetings,these would be a good idea possibly in summer,why 2 on friday night is not helping each other. Even the ratings are all over the place,maybe instead of a variance from rating 40 to 130 or whatever maybe a tighter system and maybe less penalty points for winning at lesser meetings,(they may have that now)the c1 c2 system worked fine but had only one flaw and that strugglers got no relief so they reached their mark and either sold or gaveup Do they need metro meetings on Sundays?that domain should be for country areas,even Forbury if they are still going should get sunday meetings in winter instead of Addington Plenty to ponder moving forward but the best way to start moving forward is to stop going backwards

And that's why racing and betting has issues today,those few dollars you won would buy ya racebook a pie and drink and gave change over,now days nothing,have we progressed as a society?
