Mikie

I knew it was on because I received an email having won a Competition many years ago I wasn’t able to enter but if I had I would have been goneburger by race 5 Mikie

Anyone could enter Brodie Not sure how many Teams they had Do know one unlucky Team who, in The Maroon Marauder's race, anchored the first 3 home in a First 4....and missed the 4th horse TFA was over $1000 Mikie

Therein possibly one of your issues, or at least a factor Mikie

i am pleased that you didn't list me as a detractor I try, and perhaps I fail sometimes, to take issue with a post rather than posters Perhaps we should all do that? Mikie

it would be hard to top my awesome tipping effort to my mate on Cup Day I gave him 7 horses to couple up in a place multi, taking any 5 of 7, and any 6 of 7 Of the 7 horses I tipped not 1 (that's not "one") ran in the first 3 No one could do worse than that if they tried The only thing saving me from complete ridicule from him is that he took a 5 leg multi on the MMA, of which there are only 2 selections available, he got all 5 wrong FFA: Amazing Dream to beat Spankem , Classie Brigade and Ashley Locaz Dominion: Sundee's Son; with Majestic Lavros and Tough Monarch to be part of the First 4 That'll put the kiss of death on all them Mikie

Perhaps the wording you suggest is na possibility Happy, maybe to soften the impact However if you are right it will be only for that reason I'm told that the starter for Cup Day will never start another race at Addington Seems fairly clear but hey, we will know for sure once JJ Flash posts Mikie

The news is that Addington have terminated Mr Lamb's services forthwith Press Release coming Mikie

No need to be so belligerent, merely stating what happens on the few occasions I drove Mikie

The real good ones mightn't But deafeners when pulled elicit a response at an appropriate time without a doubt Mikie

Aha got it My bad Mikie

It’s not the All Stars daily at all but wait until you see the video from the drone above Its dynamite Mikie

I think there is a middle ground this time Greg The Clubs may have an option, but it's a Claytons option, as in no choice really Mikie

Mark was extremely gracious, but I'm sure I saw him shaking his head as he jogged off (jogged off in the cart, not on his feet) Mikie

NZMTC? You mean HRNZ? His contract goes until 31.03.20 and the new CEO starts mid-January The current CEO will revert to an Independent Director No doubt his golden handshake will be paid out in a lump sum so that he isn't double-dipping Mikie

Hadn't seen this post when I started another thread Happy to agree with Brodie Mikie

I think that the bungled Cup start and the resultant outcry has been a blessing in disguise for Marc Cookson His questions of winners were cringe worthy I can't remember the exact wording as I was recoiling in horror but didn't he ask Mark Purdon if it was a thrill to win a big race? Did he think Mark would say no? Also didn't he ask Mark if he had any other worries with Self Assured other than his starting manners? Of course he didn't you pork chop Mikie

I'm not sure that is 100% riiiiight Mikie

Bad draws? The way the start was effected Copy That had the worst draw But you keep dreaming, so far you are the only person in NZ that thinks it was a first start You go Richie, you are unique Mikie

I agree, the interviewer's questions were cringe worthy, I was embarassed to even listen to them Like (sic) "are you happy winning?' What did he think, that someone might not say yes I was FFS Mikie

That's right, he did, because the inside horses were made to stand, the outside horses thought they were in a mobile Mikie

Yep, horses from 5 out were already flying when the tape went Copy That had no show Mikie

You are typing way above my knowledge scale when it comes to servers and surges, smoke and mirrors, hot and cold sites, gentle wind downs and halogen gasses I would have thought that any sort of fire would have made the Press Releases pretty clear and not so ambiguous I do note that a Press Release from the Tabcorp CEO states that they are not entirely ruling out being hacked either When will they actually tell us what happened? Mikie

Seems they can't make up their mind Chief Their CEO says it was a power surge, another story says it was a fire If it was a fire you would think that they could tell ie there would be flames, smoke and embers Sounds like a complete cockup and no one knows how to cover it up quietly Mikie

Copy That to lead all the way I was a little gun shy about him after his 2nd at ATC, but the last start win convinced me If Self Assured's starting manners were better I'd have picked him Copy That, Spankem, Self Assured, Mach Shard in order I will be cheering for Classie Brigade and would have had him in the mix if he had drawn the front line Mike

Mikie was appreciative Chief I may have said you didn't need to, and I may not have said I did appreciate it, but I did I assume we will have to wait until the day after Inaugeration before Brodie admits he was wrong, but even then I expect he will continue to wriggle out of it I also assume that I am reformed Mikie
