  1. In reality if people want to race a horse they are free to do so but this one is taking time,might be a late bloomer.
  2. In a 3 horse race it is possible he could trip,fall and fail to complete the race but then you could hook a rope around his neck and drag him over the finish line by tractor😂
  3. How would you work out the cashout price for that?
  4. I use to try multis in football say for instance 3 or 4 games with 1 goal only,seems simple was simple but always somewhere in my travels you would always get stumped and like snakes and ladders it was go back to the start,winning is not easy. Just to add to that what do people consider a big bet,5,10,25,50,75,100 thousand or what.
  5. In many ways it is poor business restricting,let's say you are a big punter,say putting 75grand on to win or even the place the odds you get are better than you will get with money in the bank,however I reckon in most cases the house always wins in the end because it only takes 1 or 2 to big bets to bum out and the punter loses but the turnover is healthy,be fair to say the TAB did nicely with the draw in the rugby,some big bets would have gone awol,coz the nature of the game finishing the way it did would have beaten most.
  6. It would make sense if they had a betting without certain runners,but you need enough runners to make it work.
  7. Probably be paying 8 or 9 in the actual race
  8. It does make you wonder how much is stacked on a purdon horse that pays 1 dollar in the place pool,not much point,it cost the Tab in the end
  9. Considering the Cup was a good race,cutting the tv cover straight after for 2 greyhounds shit was pretty average,but wall to wall and profit drivers is all that matters now
  10. Restrictions only apply to fixed odds,am I correct.
  11. No winning punters at TAB,they ain't the only restricters.
  12. Greyhounds at invers today,you wonder if anyone is there to use the tote windows,days like this it would be interesting to see if there is any point,its Sunday,you wonder if Davey Mac is relieved hes not doing the calling on this dog shit,be able to watch the rugby or whatever, that guy had dedication.
  13. I think I see he got 6th today,would it help if they had a rating 15 race?
  14. It looks like 4 wins 2 placings from 6 rides,there is a very good reason why he gets good horses to ride because he delivers. Just to add I reckon some of that West Australian racing is hard to beat too whether its Perth or even Kalgoorlie,good racing good commentator too.
  15. I think I once said he was the best I believe he is,somewhere on you tube there was a perth cup ride that tops the lot but I cant find it.
  16. Mostly I find the odds irrelevant as most times I lose lol.
  17. What was the horse Pike rode in the Perth cup,brilliant ride,it was on you tube but I cant find it.
  18. Jimmy cannon gone cheap,Jimmy Cowan travelling on his feet 😂
  19. Might just be waiting for the right draw😁 A bit like me and lotto.no emoji this time coz it ain't funny.
  20. As it's a nice sunny day I'm going out to get some sun and will probably listen to some music or something else no trackside radio is a basterd,not easy to carry tv with sky dish around with me lol
  21. I often wonder if they need two tv channel's 24 and 7.
  22. As I ain't got sky at the moment I wont watch the rugby,basically I dont give a fuck about it,but I will watch the odds race at Methven if I'm around,I use to love the NPC and if you you tube some of the shield matches and touring games from the past the passion was stronger,its probably no different for the players today but for the ageing public it's just another game now. In many ways the greedy Rugby Union haven't advanced the game ,its gone the other way,with it being pro some have benefited but with covid the reset button has been pressed.
  23. I always enjoyed radio and then I'd have a few dollars on races while out and about ,now without radio I just dont bother,I'm not streaming on smartphone all day fuck that but as I have ditched sky for now I actually like listening to the Roland Garros Tennis online radio when in bed but as that's only a short term event I can live with that,as racings everyday that's a bit different.
  24. I will say though that while we sometimes complain about the TAB we must not lose sight of the fact that they keep our racing going so we should support own,some say sell it off,I'm not sure,do we want everything that is NZ run by outside influence Do overseas sites pay us for betting on nz racing,does anyone know?
  25. So are you restricted because you spend too much or you win too much?
