Even with that idea you would probably get a winner paying $9 95 or $24 75

Or if you got more money back the field 25 a win and hope for a bugger upset lol.

Back the field 10 a win and hope for a upset.

The radio sport type programme they had on in the morning's was as good if not better than radio sport,but radio sport went tits up,the TAB could have siezed on this and had a sport racing chanell,there is a demand but in nz we are a small market,even zb,nzs number one station had pay cuts to help get through difficult times,gee even if they had a proper run radio show on the rova app on 2 or 3 days a week during peak times its a start,maybe even tap into that gold fm station on afternoons at weekends that was doing the rugby,there are possibilities,in the past its had some stormy times,race commentaries but as one door shuts others open.

Just what I and I'm sure others miss is the weekend racing on radio,some say it's not that bigger deal but it was always in and on your mind through radio while you go about your daily life,(working),online is fine to a degree but not the be all.

Reading an article in herald regarding an aussie company looking to buy old trackside frequencys,someone said here that the TAB had already sold them,not true but the company was looking into getting into the nz market,something will happen sometime,in what form,who knows,its happening in cricket,Magic talk and something will come along but probably where trackside fell down was transmitting too long,many days of no nz racing and trying to run a radio sport type programme before lunch,gee even if you had weekends,holidays etc it would be a start,interesting times ahead,(maybe)

O Connell has Pete's Dash in race 1 today,I think hes got best form and almost the worst draw,then Aveross Majesty later on,won on grass at Oamaru,what are the odds today?

Approximately 50 horses from CD area so still some life left,even a couple from Hastings throw in a good number of House horses a couple from Nelson and the northerners all bodes well,I'd say judging by numbers those mini meetings planned for later may be the way to go.

Gee had a look at Palmy fields,good numbers and very even,so it's obvious the trainers/owners are still prepared to go there so if the fields for Manawatu are healthy this week why were the 2 northern meetings last week not?

Dont think that the cricket quality is very good either,I heard that the numbers signed up to spark wasn't great so is cricket giving itself a backhander here? Maybe in time if spark dont do as well as they hope then it will be a one stop shop for sport viewing,like radio sport and trackside radio just not big enough markets in a small country like nz.

That girl seems to get the best out of Alexy.

Retirement? with Dennis O Connell training hes got got another couple of hundred races left in him I guess though it shows with so many meetings somewhere along the line it can happen.

HISTORY HAS BEEN CREATED 3RD,hopefully the siren will stay silent.

I watched that race,was the only race I watched at Alexandra Park,watched trackside for a while after ,man it's not good viewing,greyhounds after greyhounds,the odd harness race and the gallops from the valley that are ok but it seems in oz they have reduced cameras,on course presentations and our lot have followed suit etc etc,this started during the lockdown,now it seems to be the norm now

I know it's not harness but it is betting,websites streaming cricket,what's the rational for this,does anybody know?

You do wonder about the TAB odds,spitfires at 81 fixed,should be that for a place.

Wasn't there a guy lawlor or lalor that trained on the coast?

Personally I think Westland should race but personally I think there should be 2 west coast circuits one in jan say 3 days,this season they are jammed tight like sardines and another couple of days some other time and if you look at the calandar this week is probably a good fit,that's just my opinion,if it would happen,probably not. And to add to that Cromwell probably should too,there is only so much room in a calandar I guess.

I wonder how much longer this thread is gunna keep going😳

Looks like a good crowd at Cromwell ,track looks good,why only once a year?

Hope one doesn't break up.

I actually believe that Addington today is going against what sunday racing was designed for,Country days.

297 today.

I meant to say (buy) the spitfire instead.
