  1. The can tabs in recent years have spent a lot of time in Southland,lean pickings for the locals.
  2. Does he still have his southern operation or was that just temporary,
  3. Not one comment for what is a major day southern racing wise,has it just slipped by without hardly raising a ripple,is that reflective of all those southern Thursday meetings.
  4. The big guns not there but a good field really,U May Collect is turning up,should actually be a good race without the dominators.
  5. Prime😊
  6. Prince of Arran,got it in one.
  7. Wonder if Wyndham and Gore get their dates back.
  8. Fof the last few years the Waikouaiti new years day meeting has been struggling for numbers,very few southerners went anyway and to Omakau 2 days later either so in reality this will be their first meeting since boxing day,will be interesting to see how it goes,Waikouaiti still race but 2 weeks later at Wingatui,should have better numbers so that will be interesting as well.
  9. I will add that a lot of prominent people are named but why the secresey for others?
  10. The restrictions come off Melbourne tonight,for how long? I reckon it should be stated to people that as from now all those testing positive be named.
  11. I just noticed the Riverton Jan 1st day is all 15000 races,that might stimulate a bit more interest,time will tell.
  12. I'd say this one has t been updated for sometime,accuracy is good,in the harness site it tells us if a horse is just staying somewhere temporarily,John Phillip's has 26 in training yet only has one at the races for yonks,looking through the southern trainers over the years they just keep chipping away and building up a handy tally,it just makes interesting research
  13. It's not really that brilliant in the North at all,Auckland and Cambridge is pretty monotonous and with no grass racing all in all not much to get excited about.
  14. How accurate are the trainers stats as in numbers in training,it says John Phillip's,Winton has 26 in training yet The Tyler's have 23,the Tyler's always turn up with a few each day,Phillip's has only one,where are the other 25?
  15. Races seemed to go off ok,I just wonder if there is room for a few monday meetings in the south,sometimes those 2 meetings in six weeks seems a bit sparse in race date terms.
  16. At least Forbury get the numbers,its funny how hrnz are supposed to be promoting racing and then removing it from a large chunk of the country,im getting mixed messages.
  17. Wonder how all the trendsetting dorks are going,if they are home yet ready for the congestion that awaits them tomorrow going to work.
  18. I had a listen to rova radio today a gallop race was on from oz but they cut it off halfway to go to Ashburton,I've said it before,very unprofessional
  19. Be a great holiday for the dorklanders going home,sitting in traffic so they can get stuck in traffic going to work tomorrow,fuckem ,one wonders when you talk about pollution in the air all those cars bumper to bumper must be the biggest polluters in the country
  20. Just reading an ODT story on yesterday,over a thousand people turned up,now I'm not sure if that's a lot but it appears by Forbury standards it seems to be ,some of the days they get probably only attract a handful but its all about the turnover,but it does help if the public know the races are on,a Sunday on a holiday weekend gets some interested,don't believe a cold Thursday in July would inspire many,how many turn up at addington on those cold winter nights?
  21. Strange thing,PetesDash seems to be a habitual 5th or 6th placegetter so with other drivers still getting same result,6 months is a bit tough,maybe just a bit of advice might have been enough.
  22. Keeps the account ticking along for now aye😧
  23. No tote windows at all?
  24. Spouse Alexy will be up round the 350 mark by may.
  25. Should have forgotten about it.history now.
