The real issue here with closing borders is Aussie betting sites and racing, yet sites like Betway, 10 bet, bet365 based in Europe really just do sport and casino games etc etc, woudnt make any sense blocking them as they mostly of no great issue ,its the racing guys who are wanting change.
Simply want all the money bet off shore, no more Sportsbet, Ladbrokes etc etc.
Benefits obvious , not my words, just the general assumption
I suspect lots might pull the pin if it was close border betting
I note the Gore septic tank cleaning service are sponsoring a race on Thursday.
One wonders if they will be donating a 10 litre bucket of shit to the winner.
Gore on friday, probably be snowing, hang on just checked the forecast, fine and sunny for a week, the south gets a bad wrap about its weather, yet it's the North that gets all the rain.
Actually pretty good, had some doubts, I see Robert Dennis has one nominated is he still training?,
Another under the Dennis Bros as well, must be a hard habit to give up.
As I said earlier in this thread, it's going to be interesting to see how many nominate for the Gore Gallops, Friday, strange how they don't want harness racing there but one would think the more a venue is used the better I would have thought.
Good numbers for Saturday,(Winton), maybe the bigger tracks are more appealing, not much choice if you are in the north.
Interesting Winton get Saturday, yet most days are Thursdays , Fridays, thats another anomaly.
No one has commented about the numbers or the lack of in the Hannon Memorial, 2 or 3 are top performers, no doubt but 2 or three are just middle class, that's why they have only won 5 or 6 races so far, not a great race for betting,
Thanks for the likes people, when you actually think about it if you want to listen to maori stuff then watch and listen to the moari tv channel or if you want to watch religion then watch a religious channel, imagine the kerfuffle if they were giving out tips for the races on the tv1 sports section there would be a uproar, simple fact everything is appropriate, at, right place right time.
