You think? I type and then it bloody changes it on me!!! To be fair you must have the same issues DUDE!!

Firstly, I do not get any handouts from the Government and secondly I dont need any! Thirdly, the TAB restrictions on punters is grossly affecting turnover and profit!

No! Not as many as there used to be Hunter!

Must be someone who is going to perform, and that would not be too hard providing to arent weak as piss!

What is nice work Ranga? $69 at $4 is nice work? Pretty generous from the Accountants do you reckon?

The horse was good winning down south winning them in a row! All you can do is win, I suppose and has won at Addington, but was nkt up against the best and think its last win at Addington, it sat in the trail! Yes it can run, but it was racing mainly Southland horses who are t in the same league as Canterbury gorses generally!

To be fair, U May Collect was winning down south mostly, beating nothing! Has won at Addington but didnt beat the best! A very good horse but enthusiasts that were talking him as a Cup hope last year were dreaming!

Dougie, depending on who the punter or punters were, it does not take a lot of money for the Accountants to shorten a horse right up! A few hundred a place on Needhams horse couldve slashed the horse’s win price from $20 into $5 no problem!

I wouldve been able to get approx. $69 on fixed for a place max.

Happy, I totally agreed with everything until you went and ruined it by saying harness punters would go and bet on Ozzie gallops! Wash your mouth out, what harness punter would gamble on gallops when there is Korean baseball or Russian basketball?

Where is the stewards follow up in the South Island with Mr O’Connell? Waiting with baited breath!

Has anyone heard anyone about the adjournment of Denis O’Connells shocking driving yet? How long does it take to view a film and makE a call? Phil Holden where are you?? Think you are running a very poor ship at the moment and need to step up and captain it!!

Geez Happy you beat me to it, once again! It is just another stupid rule that are in harness Racing that needs amending However it involves a bit of work having these enquiries, it was far easier to collect revenue by fining drivers Who tap a horse 11 times! Great that they finally saw how dumb it was and now changed it, congratulations! Yes Happy, it it is ludicrous but I think that they wont because it takes time for an enquirey and with one, they lose revenue or tgink they do! Suggestion for HRNZ encourage the NZ TAB to allow their punters to be able to punt!!!!

The NZ TAB restricts certain punters to be able to net a certain figure, irrespective of whether it is a 1.50 favourite or a $50 Outsider? The amount I am allowed is not worth the effort, however when I do bet a wee bit on, they often save me money at the moment! The NZ TAB policy of restricting certain punters to a pathetic amount is seriously flawed! They have aLways got the advantage and always should be making money on every race! They should be encouraging all punters to offload, however they are hellbent on having a good yield Rather than making a bigger profit! The $46m betting platform has certainly not done the racing industry any favours, unless you are into punting on Korean Table Tennis or Russian Basketball!!!

I do know for a fact that several years ago, limiting harness punters to pathetic amounts was common! Were gallop punters being limited? Had it on very good authority, that they were not restricting them, as they had no need to! The fact is that what the NZ TAB is doing is losing the harness punters bigtime, and this sadly is going to kill the sport, as it has a huge flow on affect!

Agree Happy, gallops are very boring, although there aRe more enthusiasts than harness for some strange reason? Form is impossible to follow and that is why the TAB doesnt restrict punters! Just about impossible to see your horse until they go past you unless you back the grey!

Denis??

Where is Mr Holden? Too busy for HRNZ or just out of his comfort zone.

Will be very interesting to see who is actually sponsoring the Box Seat? Should be able to tell by the advertising! I would be putting forward that connections to the Blue and Silver stable will be in the mix somewhere! Good on Greg OConnor for starting it up again, but if it is the AllStar benefit show again, most people will Just give it a miss again! Very boring when we hear about past races and he is a nice wee fellah, blah blah blah!

It has finished apparently! Wasnt appreciated by HRNZ but I wouldve told them to suck eggs, and start doing their job that they are being paid for!!!

Chief, it is very true. We have been scammed big time by the BS! We lose more vulnerable people every winter from the flu, which Covid19 is aN influenza virus. There is no specific test that says that it is covid19, it just says that you have a virus! Ardern and Bloomfield have scared the crap out of many people and shows you how weak some people really are unfortunately. they wont say but the suicides and mental health Issues are starting to happen. We have had not one die from the virus without health issues But all basically on their last legs in dimentia rest homes that wouldve died this year. It is a shocker what the communist leader has got away with and the you g ones will be laying for many years to come

“People are obviously enjoying the racing at the moment” says Darrin! Well how about you and Phil “missing in action” Holden, have a word to the NZ TAB and advise them to let more people enjoy the racing by letting them bet with them?

As long as is it isnt the same AllStars BS every week, it will be welcomed back! Hopefully it will be previews rather than the reviews, as who cares about races that have already been run?? Give us the interesting stuff and topical instead of wanking on about $1.50 favourites and what Self Assured should be paying in the Cup!!! So damn boring week in and week out until November! Will the Cup even be run this year, with Arderrn still at the helm??

FFS, stop being a clown!!!

Victoria Park, Greymouth, Ranga!!! That is what you were implying, and wrongly at that!
