  1. What about Wingatui.have all the new years dayers stayed loyal?
  2. People are cutting costs everywhere.running shorter races is saving tread on the sulky wheels lol
  3. He may have been seeking the job but was probably trapped between working for the TAB or spending his life telling everyone here how wrong and stupid we all are.
  4. I think Roxburgh were for the chop too,what was the idea there,l can't remember now,maybe a shift to Gore,Forbury or something but hang on they were almost gone too. What happened to Hamilton,seemed to vanish from racing scene. Funny how times change,Central used to provide the bulk of the Otago footy team, is there anyone from Central made it in recent times,I'm not up with such things as much these days One more thing,I read an article on Woodhouse in the odt a while back,stated he had done 1.3million kilometres in his horse truck,that's some distance by my reckoning.
  5. You Doug are simply making too much sense,I honestly can't see how a new date for Omakau can't be found,the guys running harness racing have some rather strange ideas,no Eastern Southland bar one day,Forbury and Waterlea almost died,Taranaki has died,sad but true.it is a large area and a large population,token days seems a bit short changing the area really
  6. Waikouiti at Wingatui tomorrow have good fields,good stakes,much better than Jan 1 would have got however as it's at Wingatui,is it better to race there with probably not many turning up crowd wise or going back home ,3 times the crowd,its a hard one to know which option is best. I bet most of those Waikouiti racegoers will be a no show,not just tomorrow but probably any other time of the year and maybe for good,is that wise.
  7. Maybe they should build a big stadium like Eden Park or something😁
  8. Gee I won a race,ring up the news service lol
  9. The old race calendar,always creates a lot of discussion.
  10. I assumed JJ may live in Blenhiem
  11. JJ on the roof,what does that mean,I'm curious.
  12. Had one I see at invers today so he still exist.
  13. More popular than his namesake,wont pay much if 70 million back him aye
  14. Might yet be a dog trial.
  15. Do the papers still have the fields for the races in them.havnt bought one for ages just read online.not everyone bothers online ,are they getting coverage?
  16. That might be a effort in itself.
  17. Anybody read this story as yet,well worth a read but as a story lots of depth,not just about one horse but a history of a good number of them.
  18. I will be careful from now on ,will only accept 50s,cents that is.
  19. Hes getting a bit like Serina William's,keeps turning up but cant land the big prize😏
  20. Be doubtful if it is worth a dollar.
  21. So how much did you stack on it lol
  22. I suspect the TAB will be smiling😄
  23. I'm turning into the rova app shortly,I dont bother there often but maybe I'm about to hear radio that will rival Winston Churchills and Queen Elizabeth's speeches as historic occasions,here's hoping.
  24. As I said before,I wouldn't bet on it🙂
  25. Tom Waterhouse is at Ascot tomorrow too,Lionel Messi was at Cambtidge the other day,why ain't hrnz promoting such happenings?
