  1. Dont think that the cricket quality is very good either,I heard that the numbers signed up to spark wasn't great so is cricket giving itself a backhander here? Maybe in time if spark dont do as well as they hope then it will be a one stop shop for sport viewing,like radio sport and trackside radio just not big enough markets in a small country like nz.
  2. That girl seems to get the best out of Alexy.
  3. Retirement? with Dennis O Connell training hes got got another couple of hundred races left in him I guess though it shows with so many meetings somewhere along the line it can happen.
  4. HISTORY HAS BEEN CREATED 3RD,hopefully the siren will stay silent.
  5. I watched that race,was the only race I watched at Alexandra Park,watched trackside for a while after ,man it's not good viewing,greyhounds after greyhounds,the odd harness race and the gallops from the valley that are ok but it seems in oz they have reduced cameras,on course presentations and our lot have followed suit etc etc,this started during the lockdown,now it seems to be the norm now
  6. I know it's not harness but it is betting,websites streaming cricket,what's the rational for this,does anybody know?
  7. You do wonder about the TAB odds,spitfires at 81 fixed,should be that for a place.
  8. Wasn't there a guy lawlor or lalor that trained on the coast?
  9. Personally I think Westland should race but personally I think there should be 2 west coast circuits one in jan say 3 days,this season they are jammed tight like sardines and another couple of days some other time and if you look at the calandar this week is probably a good fit,that's just my opinion,if it would happen,probably not. And to add to that Cromwell probably should too,there is only so much room in a calandar I guess.
  10. I wonder how much longer this thread is gunna keep going😳
  11. Looks like a good crowd at Cromwell ,track looks good,why only once a year?
  12. Hope one doesn't break up.
  13. I actually believe that Addington today is going against what sunday racing was designed for,Country days.
  14. 297 today.
  15. I meant to say (buy) the spitfire instead.
  16. You didn't but the spitfire instead did ya ?
  17. Wairoa are Sunday Feb 21,Poverty Bay haven't found their day if there is one yet.
  18. What I was meaning,are they racing in Hastings?
  19. What's happening to the Wairoa and Gisborne days,do they still exist?
  20. Most camera shots of racecourses are the same.i notice it everytime,one thing I've also noted is mist of the racedays over xmas,new year are industry days,only a year or two ago a lot of the days were getting a handful of runners in lots of the races,be interesting to see how fields stack up in the next while.
  21. That Greymouth meeting is on a holiday,one wonders if the dates are restructured and maybe a couple of days elsewhere would be better maybe Reefton,Wednesday,Kumara Saturday another on the Tuesday?the way the days fall can create congestion,maybe Greymouth race 2 days elsewhere,maybe next week would be a good idea just a thought.
  22. Spitfire last today,some of the odds the Tab offer are pretty poor,he should be at 100 as a minimum
  23. Keeps on going this one,been following Alexy since it was about 225 starts and on the cusp now of the triple hundred,be interesting to see if he does reach that mark and will it be at his favourite track at Forbury?
