  1. No that would probably then be defined as too much.
  2. Maybe he needs to get one of those 2 seat sulkys and get the stipe to go around too and show him how to do things properly.
  3. I was a great fan of Otagos Rugby but never liked Byron Kelleher, just a thug and a person's true character shows when under the influence. I know when ones a bit younger you can allow a few discrepancies but this fuckers getting on a bit now.
  4. Maybe they could get cardboard cutouts but Wingatui always looks like a place with very little atmosphere, maybe I'm wrong.
  5. Every time I see pictures of Wingatui on trackside or photos of horses in the birdcage, always seems their hardly anyone there.
  6. Strange you say that ,i actually broke out of my comfort zone and thought for interest sake to have a go after the Hawera quaddie, first 3 winners and had Victor Bravo and the House runner in the last, always the way.
  7. I heard Guerin yesterday waffling on about his picks yesterday, seventy percent on this and 30 on that, hard to follow but he did get some wins and as usual some losses too, but did he win more than he spent ?
  8. BG0 would have done nicely if they had of stuck to just win and top 2 3 4 bets but the TAB will love them. This is the thing with punters clubs, they seem to want to want multis, and most of them come up short.
  9. Think after race completed they may have nose in front, their big double with legato though has gone west.
  10. Some of the ideas of the Messara report would best be printed into nice little squares of paper and hung up in the wee room.
  11. Switching everything online isn't the be all of everything, I was reading a article on David White from Cricket when it signed to stream Cricket with Spark, it's the way of the future he said, look what happened there. No different to racing, streaming is OK as a option but jamming two trackside channel's into 1 for audio don't work, still important to have racing on radio just as it is for Cricket, not everyone has access to good internet or is working, driving etc etc. I note tomorrow's racing show on Senz starts at 3 o clock from Ellerslie, does that mean Riccarton don't matter . I should add that Cricket left Radio Sport because NZME offered Cricket a lot less to broadcast rights for radio, I suspect Sky will do same when negotiating tv rights in a year or two.
  12. I think Entain/TAB takeover operations on Feb 1, Senz had potential but didn't reach it.
  13. And The Wizard, seems all the good drivers are in Auckland lol.
  14. Saturday arvo for gallops, Friday night for trots, Sunday one of each, not sure about Entain wanting Mondays and Tuesday mini meets but I did notice in draft calander for next year hardly any Saturday meetings and mostly Thursdays for Southern harness. Be nice if they could find a Friday and Sunday in June maybe to reinstate the Nelson meeting, gee maybe even follow up with a day in Blenhiem too just to add variety.
  15. For what's it worth I do think the idea of 2 friday night meetings would produce a better tv viewing experience, cut out all the crap in between races.
  16. No.if there are no horses there are no horses but nice for the few left I guess, but who's paying for it, maybe Entain.
  17. I guess Tony Lee is happy he didn't drive there for nothing, probably knows the road like the back of his hand.
  18. Norton, wasn't he owned by people in Southland ,?
  19. 1976, Forbury festival meeting, raced twice after a 3 or 4 year break. Chief Walk.
  20. Chief Walk, maybe.
  21. So what's bothering you man.
  22. NZ Trackside 1 and 2 are broadcast through the NZ Harness website in N Z, maybe you can't see that in OZ, as for the Albion Park race taking out Nelson, that can happen, many times they just have a delayed coverage but sometimes they can't be bothered perhaps, never easy though when they don't stick to time.
  23. Can you not access nz racing on Harness Racing site, they screen trackside, it's not a betting site or is it blocked.
  24. I must have missed something , R4 Packing Rockstar has already had 3 starts for 3 wins according to TAB website.
  25. Team C plz.
