I disagree with you There have been joint code meetings run A TB Raceday isn't a joint code meeting as such but since it suits your purpose, which is to never admit that you are wrong, you can call it what you like You are incorrect about the Members having an influence in the TB Clubs running trotting races on their racedays. The Members had absolutely no influence whatsoever, zero. The first that the Members knew that there would be trots on their gallops day was when the Committee, via their Secretary, wrote to them to advise them

You may accuse me of being picky but they weren’t joint code meetings They were TB licenced days on which the TB Club ran a couple of trotting races, and the TB Club paid the stakes

My opinion is that no age group is any more disadvantaged than any other Mh opinion is that their are many people struggling with mental health issues irrespective of their age during these times Now go argue with someone else’s post as that seems to be your modus operandi lately

What is the juvenile point in posting a response to Curious’s question? Enlighten me In order to post a reply to your query I would need to know what you mean by “the likes of myself” Such a sweeping generalisation makes it hard to reply

I answered a question that was posted Aren’t posters allowed to do that? My brief reading of the article is that the study related to parasuicides as I described it Ic the article had meant to include actual suicides then the writer would have probably used the terms attempted and actual suicides i do have an opinion on whether children or adolescents have been affected, but Curious merely asked a question to which I replied Now run along Cockwomble

And Ludwig quoted a Medical Definition

I’m NZ’s most terrible tipster, I took Aussie to beat South Africa at the weekend but for some inane reason I took 1-12 at $4.50 instead of just the win at $3.50 Of course they won by13 Anyone need a horse stopped I’m your man I could stop a train

Great trainers and as far as I’m concerned about any rumours everyone is innocent until proven guilty

So you are upset that someone’s death cost you Dux? diesn’t sound like you have any ongoing sympathy for the deceased’s family

If it helps then you have my permission to alter the % to the correct figure, I was merely having a guess I think I’m quite good with numbers but that’s just my opinion, just like we only have your opinion that you are not an idiot Still waiting on you to inform me where I blamed anyone else for any issues or troubles that I may have had now or in my past. Are you struggling? Was your post just piss ‘n wind Chief? Just an attempt to build yourself up by casting aspersions on a poster? (For those that don’t know Chief is trying to be clever by alluding to my convictions 2017) While you are looking at posters and their history, can you post the % of Brodie’s posts , as a percentage of his total posts, that mention either he is Restricted or the TAB are mean to him, or that the USA Elections were rigged or that Covid isn’t real, or that the vaccine doesn’t work, or that this government is no good, or how hobbles is spelt, or that Biden isn’t as good as Trump My guess is that those 1 if those 8 items would be present in some form in 90% of his posts How close is that Chief?

He’s “special”

I know full well where Greymouth’s Victoria Park was (and is) DB But I can’t recall any Clubs centralising there Can you tell me which Clubs centralised there?

I don’t remember Westport centralising there i don’t remember Reefton centralising there What Clubs centralised there?

Thanks, I am privy to inside information I told you that I posted it, we have been beaten into submission I believe it is correct so I’m not bothering to dig out previous Distributions and get my calculator out to confirm it What would be the point for me to do that other than to appease you? Would it change anything? Would it improve my life? If you are so concerned about receiving confirmation that our % share is less than previously why don’t you just ring the Chairman and ask him? You could loosely describe yourself as media, and media can ask questions Just do it

The story that you based your comment on was from an Owner’s and Trainer’s perspective The story was about horses paying their way Perhaps when you have no answer it would be better to say that instead of trying to be obtuse

Hi Shad Your memory is very good but the incident you refer to was at Waterlea Racecourse in Blenheim, not Hokitika Dean's saddle slipped whilst in front and Tane came alongside and hoisted him back upright as Dean was nearly going to hit the deck in front of the field Grant Norman Davison came alongside on the offside and steadied Dean although Tane 's effort was the majority of the save I was the Racing Secretary on the day and I have always kicked myself for not grabbing the head-on video down the back straight Bruce Craik was the Stipe on the day and we watched the video countless times, it was an amazing effort by Tane Mikie

You're right Karrots I feel bullied but it's Chief and he owns the site Oh what to do? Pack up and sulk like Brodie? Bitterly moan like Gammalite that I'm being attacked because some merely disagrees with me? I think the Brodie way is appealing the most So I'll join him, where's he gone Chief? Mikie

So one of the best Drivers in Ozzie gets 3 weeks for incompetence And you think it was just a dumb decision? Say no more Chief, we can agree to disagree Mikie

Fair enough So now tell me, why would KOTS stay on COLT's back and end up 3 wide? He was going to be 1 out, 2 back. Why, on a lessor horse, would he go 3 wide? He couldn't have thought for 1 second that COLT would hand the death up to an inferior horse would he? Mikie

The smart money would lay a hotpot because it drew 1? You're a dreamer Chief But hey, you think you are an expert in T/B's and harness I think you are a couple sammies short of a picnic We are all entitled to our views Mikie

Peter McMullen is a very good driver, his drive on Will The Wizard a week ago in a good 3yo race has been applauded on sites in Australia So why or how did he cock his drive up so badly on King Of The Stars that he got 3 weeks holiday for being incompetent (I think the Australian wording is unacceptable) Any one? Chief? Mike

No, again I don't agree, I don't think you have given me any run for my money I'm not an expert on Betfair but I can see something fishy when 1 race attracts 25% more money than any other race, and most of it is on one horse to be beaten I think I'm more expert than you on harness, that's correct I don't think I'm more expert than you on T/B tracks or T'B AWT'S and that's why I don't post on this threads Do I think that there's something rotten going on in Ozzie harness racing? Yes I do Have a look at Hollywood Rooki's video at Canberra, a 31 start maiden previous to 2 wins in a row, where the horse goes within a second of a Derby winner's track record under double wraps, and tell me it isn't running without help Look at Race 7 at Globe Derby last Saturday night won by Gaita Pullicino (who unbelievably has her licence back). Tell me why a brother and sister in the lead and the death run along so much when the death horse's record from the death is terrible. Mikie

Brodie's picked up his toys and buggared off I have never battled with Karrots You seem to think that I am "battling" you merely because I think some drives in a race look very suspicious. It's called disagreeing Gammalite I agree with you about the Amazing Dream drive so why do you get so upset about me disagreeing with you on another matter? Mikie

No, not because you disagree with me, but because you have no real idea Mikie

What a nice person Grant must be A forgiving type Yes I'm quite sure I did Gammalite Did you? Mikie
