I'm a little disappointed with TAB, no top four betting on that race, oh well.
-
Maybe they are doing a survey to see how many would turn up😂 Why in situations like this dont they shift to monday, crowds are irrelevant mostly so what's the problem,?
-
Listening to ZB regarding the ABs, same old bullshit, been that way for years. Dont really believe we have the players at the moment. Coach probably isn't much chop but would anyone else want the job at present?
-
I'm surprised Warriors matches ain't the biggest punted events that the TAB run, on the other team to win😀
-
Not just the golf course.

While the polynesian players have done so much good for our national team, supposedly, lots of white kids have moved on to other sports, who wants to have to play against school kids who are probably as big as Colin Meads was in his prime, jonah was a prime example. Just like racing is heading rugby now is focused mostly around a few select places, super rugby bases, which also hold test matches, the NPC, has become what club rugby once was, club rugby has been demoted further, this years NPC is now a one pool of 14 teams, what benefit will unions like Southland ,Manawatu and the likes get by being celler dwellers season after season, the old NPC had promotion/relegation, every match had a point, picture Southland as a example.losing its first 6 matches in this new format this year, how does one engender any interest in games if they are pointless, The biggest shambles was the last lions tour, played the All Blacks and the Super sides, over a century of tradition gone by not playing in the regions, but as I said before the provinces have been decimated by the elites so once again pointless playing them under the present scenario The old NPC, Shield scenario was the best around look what they've done too it.

Alexy needs a lot of racing to get to peak fitness, I win every 35 starts is proof

Strange comments, dont think anywhere you'd find I'm putting anyone down, it's just interesting, not often one sees a team trained out of Riverton trekking that far, be even less often you would see someone trekking from Queensland to these shores, maybe someone might one day just to get away from the heat or the rain, not sure if the stakes in NZ would be a major attraction though lol
-
3 runners today, 2 in race 2 and another in race 4, Eagle Farm, none fancied, be interesting anyway.
-
Not a ot a lot of variety with basically 2 tracks, NZ, well the South Island has some variety, for how long, is anyone's guess, as you will know the cd area was almost wiped, the North has only 2 venues and it seems they want more tracks gone, I don't really believe the present Addington Friday Sunday concept is that popular.
-
Gammalite, I havnt looked through this thread for a while but I was actually looking through some Queensland racing sites, as one does, I notice there seems to be only a few harness tracks in Queensland, Albion Park, Redcliffe, and it seems Marburg and Kilcoy, that don't seem like many, are there any others active?
-
That racing.com site don't seem to update too flash but as it stands the record is 26 starts, 1 win, 75000 in stakes, i running tomorrow at Sunshine Coast, hasn't exactly set the world on fire, bit different from Wingatui and Ascot Park.

Are the A/W's already becoming a white elephant ???

And the odds of Trentham racing? -
That Martin Devlin was another fuckin idiot, I love humour, you would have noted that but his whole show on zb was just a bag of shit, Jason Pine seems a good guy , so is Ian Smith, but Lush likes trains, wouldn't be surprised if he still plays with them, was voted on the council in invers by a massive win over others, simply because people knew who he was. Just noted all NZ racing is on trackside 1, seems a bit congested with 3 meetings, one wonders if it effects turnover, elsewhere it was raised why Sunday racing in NZ ain't all on one channel, but in reality you can only cover 2 meetings properly on radio it's no problem, can almost have as many as you like.

Hey there, I havnt posted for a couple of days, gets tedious after a while discussing the same old horse racing issues, that's why a free for all forum adds variety, as I've stated elsewhere I don't do social media, just here and that other place where I'm not always popular due to my postings, not everyone shares my different outlook on things, even sometimes I can't be bothered either lol. Overnight I watched Wimbledon, that Nadal fella is some sportsmen, that sporting event is some sporting event, young fella playing against him, so close yet so far, always some great stories as the 34 year old mother playing in the semis would testify, may never get that close again but the payday for reaching the semis shows that perseverance pay off, and the other amazing sporting story is the transformation of the England cricket team, how long before we want Baza coaching the Black caps, would we have the money, would he want too?. Talk about repetitive , listening to ZB , that Hosking fella is a stuck record, about time he started focussing on the elections , next year, as a candidate, now and then at night tune in to that Lush fella, very nauseating to listen to, Marcus this and Marcus that, after about 2 minutes of that I'm done, hard to believe it's got some radio award, fuck him anyway. Warriers are losing another promising player, watch him flourish when he goes elsewhere, maybe it's time they got rid of some of the management, ain't that Cameron George one of the big wigs in NZTR, seems these sort of people seem to go from one overpaid job to another, if they fail somewhere then they just crop up somewhere else, strange but true. The war in Ukraine drags on, so much propaganda, hard to know what to believe, when will it end, will Putin survive? 2 good race meetings in the South Island today, for the punters, looks like the weathers gunna hold out , hopefully. Anyway I've floated one or two subjects, have a good day

Was just pointing out the nom numbers for Ashvegas, might get more than 6 races, no need for confusion. -

Fairly good noms for Ashburton, better stakes too, re Oamaru. -
Gee the way this games going might happen today.
-
I'm just watching the Warriors as it's just what's on the tv and I wonder if there has ever been a score line of 1 nil, sometimes you can get a scoreless draw as such but a drop goal being the clincher, spose it's happened.
-
i mean that other chat site that does racing, typo error brought up chanel x
-
Do you ever go on that other site forums.?
-
Strange with Warriors match today being a sell out yet the 14th and 15th teams on the points table, wonder if these wogs will bottle it.
