  1. Spitfire,no good today,didn't see race but result,I thought he was turning the corner,well he was today,just a different corner than all the others aye,probably be Forbury next,should be well rested after today's lame effort,(maybe he is lame),maybe he has been all his life,anyway Forbury Wednesday,he will be firing instead of running like a bag of busted arseholes cant wait.
  2. Maybe Auckland could have raced last night,instead of competing with another meeting.
  3. Just hearing that Jason Pine fella on zb saying how good our Cricket test team is,we are playing some very average team,to put things in perspective one only needs to rewind the clock back to last xmas in oz to get a better line on reality. I will stress that we can only play what's in front of us,I think with big money in 20 20 some of these guys dont give a shit.
  4. Forbury Wednesday,top stake 7500,Methven following on from 2 average addingtons,add Winton racing next saturday,Rangiora Sunday,be interesting to see how Forbury go,these are the sort of meetings that seem to be passing by mostly unnoticed,judging by turnover stats,even a 5 o clock start is a unusual time,most people are just leaving work,who comes up with these ideas,just to add if Forbury are being regarded as a winter racing place why not Sundays instead of cold Thursday nights,do addington need those Sundays?
  5. You like water crest?
  6. Maybe a lot of the all stars friends and associates liked the odds as well,in reality it's a very murky situation with the all stars with several in the same race,cant be easy for anyone really,I'd say it's doing harness racing a lot of negativity,maybe there is a reason that the country meetings are creating such good turnovers and some meetings doing poorly.
  7. I wonder what Vin Knight would get if he was driving today
  8. Now that Mark Cookson or Crooksons gone home just take note of the crap being dished up on trackside,its just wall to wall poop really,time to turn off,anybody sitting through this all night must have issues.
  9. I could have put it on something paying a dollar 5,at least I would have got something lol,I might stick it on the spitfire.
  10. So there were 2 late scratchings,when were they scratched,must have been close to start time.
  11. Gee I dont have a mrs,that's why I'm here all the time lol and frankly who gives a shit anyway,anyway can someone help me,that trotting race before had only 6 runners yet tote paid out 3 divvies,how does that come about?
  12. Strange irony is that nz racing was at its strongest before the days of all these races,often one meeting raceday and no sports or fixed odds,maybe racings a victim of overkill and alternitives.
  13. I remember there was a million dollar pick6 at addington one night,I think it was oaks night,(may)and one syndicate spent a huge sum to try and catch the fish,they backed 13 horses in the first race to get a good start,and you wouldn't believe it but the rank outsider in the 14 horse field won,the odds of that happening not great but they lost bigtime through,not sure if they just gave the prize to 5 winners,sometimes the prize only went to the ones who had tickets that stayed alive longest,probably that sort of result would put you off punting for a while but that's gambling I guess.
  14. I'm basically a win and place better,we all have our favorites,and I will stress not a very good one,others might be a one or two big bets a day,exotics are obviously chasing larger returns but personally i just cant study the form that intensely so dont bother often,sports betting,are you into that,everyones different,can anybody say in all honesty they win at this game,not just in the short term but the long term,i know I havnt and it ain't for the lack of trying,this is not a easy game to be in.
  15. Dont seem to be anyone wanting to buy my bonus bet,for what's it worth I was just having a laugh,i will find something to stick it on but what?
  16. Just looked on you tube at the video,not so awesome now,seemed so at the time though,lots of good horses out of aussie over the years,not perhaps as strong at present,just to add lots of good races on you tube.
  17. Gammalite,one good horse,so was that preux chevalier,excuse the spelling but I think the most awesome horse I ever saw was Village Kid,I think that was his name,always remember an interdom final he was in,drew wide and the early speed going into that first corner I've never forgotten,think it was Albion Park,others must remember that run.
  18. Anybody want to buy my $10 dollar bonus bet off me,come on people make me an offer,starting at $50😂
  19. Gee its certainly changed,Richmond use to race 3 days in a row I think,Blenheim as well
  20. Maybe his indicator wasn't working.
  21. Racing club,Wingatui,trot club,Oamaru,grass.
  22. Bit of a battle Waikouaiti when wet,no more though aye.
  23. I think they ran the slowest 2 mile trot ever didn't they,track was a bit sticky
