Just how good was The Fiery Ginga? He was one tough horse, imagine him with Paul Nairn or the Dunns! Was actually not a bad days racing if you were selective with what races you invested on! There is always money to be made on the Sunday meetings at Addington. Not sure why Reformed was so short when it is more a short course horse and not very brave. Megarock did look the one due to the way it went last start and what it had done at Addington over 2600m earlier in the year in far better fields! $15 opening was great price so Keep up the good work Bookies!

Trackside Presenters shouldnt be tipping horses!!!!!!
Brodie replied to Brodie's topic in Trotting Chat
Boobs, I always talk sense, and disappointed that you do not agree with Brodie every time! Of course it is a conflict of interest and you would be pretty silly to be paying any Tip Line! If the tippers were any good then why would they need to get income from the Tip Line? Is there anyone on BOAY that has actually rung tip lines and how did you go?? -
Be surprised if it was returned to air as I have heard HRNZ weren’t exactly for it! Well done for at least having a go but needs money thrown at it and where that is going to come from is a problem as they wont get from the NZ TAB. Jason Teaz did a good job under difficult circumstances I would say and the human interest interviews are far better than getting crap races from Timbuktu! Wonder if Jason is prepared to air his views on the possibility of the show making a return?

Trackside hasnt improved over the years to much degree. The way they have wall to wall racing is an absolute turnoff for most people unless they are a compulsive out of control gambler. When they have racing from Japan on the same channel as NZ night harness, you can see where the NZ TAB priorities lie! Who the hell knows anything about Japanese gallopers a d the commentators are just so boring along with the racing! Harness racing as an entertainment leaves the gallops and dogs for dead and yet Trackside doesn't portray it as such. They quickly leave a race to show us some overweight people walking greyhounds to the boxes in some Australian outback! Personally do not give a Rat’s what The Trackside presenters think will run well, as if they had any ability with selections they would not need to be presenting! The best presenters of harness like Sheldon Murtha and Justin Le Lievre were given the do not come Monday a long time ago, At the end of the day if you find that the Trackside presenters were good to follow then that is your perogative. Do not think that they add any value by tipping out half the field and should stick to talking about the race. Nigel Armstrong and Racing Unhinged adds a helluva lot more interest at Addington than hearing about what a so called lending analyst in NZ likes! Not being personal, just think that if you were that good, you would not need to be a paid employee of the TAB as it is “CONFLICT OF INTEREST”. -

Would be interesting to know how many are actually prepared to pay money for his tips? From what I have heard is that he has early access to back what he wants! Then he must put his tips on his tipline! Then he puts some of them on “Whale Watch”! Then he tips them on Trackside! I am sure he is a great likeable bloke, but personally do not think it is in the best interests of harness racing! -

Fair enough then, having poor tipsters fronting Trackside! Surely though this must piss off the viewers that dont want to pick their own horses, when the supposed leading ANALYST in NEW ZEALAND is not flash? If he can not pick winners then how can I, they must think, and we lose them from punting! The Trackside presenters may be knowledgeable and do their homework but if you paid them for their tipping success, then they wouldnt be getting much! -
Always and you know that Ranga!

Unfortunately the abysmally poor decisions made by our elected government has made everything about NEW ZEALAND worse. Mental Health issues is huge and increasingly will get worse due to extended lockdowns, people struggling with financial and partnership issues due to the total over reaction to Covid19 mild virus. The flu is bigger issue currently in hospitalisations and yet the effwits are still trying to get even more toxins into you. What part of having the shite in you weakens your immune system, do people not understand?

Seriously, what is the point of tonights Trackside Presenter tipping the public horses??? He is from the North Island and he is less than average with his tips at Addington!! Race 2 he once again tipped Ken Baron’s trotter who really had very little chance of paying a dividend. It has been mentioned many times that he is the country’s leading analyst, but if you are an enthusiast you would know that this is rubbish! I am sure he puts a lot of study in but no offence, I am not convinced that he is actually tipping the horses that he likes!!! As has been discussed previously, he should not be on Trackside even though it is Trackside’s decision to employ him! It is not right that he has an 0900 tipline, wagers on those same horses and also fronts Trackside with his tips! In many harness races, a horse will stand out like Dogs Bxxxx to run in the money and yet the Trackside Presenter does not tip it, it is as if they dont want the public to back it!! If you followed the tipsters picks you would be down the gurgler!! Not trying to be personal and it is your choice whether you follow the tips or not, but unless there is a Purdon horse in the race then I wouldnt be touching it!

At this stage I probably wont have a go on the amateurs either. I sort them out and if they are too short I dont bother. They are harder to get big wins now as the Bookies open too short mostly and dont bother changing unless there is someone having a crack. Still easy enough to make money but just need to be patient eith what you back.
-
I am the same as Galah nowadays with fixed odds, one or two bets seems to be the go. I will only have a go now if the odds are reasonable even though I will like several at a meeting! If they are paying under $2 for a place I wont waste my time. Rougher the race the better is the way to make money and if you do your homework you should consistently head them off!! The biggest problem is that generally the Bookies/Accountants open the odds too low and dont lengthen them out early enough. I can see a few that could be worth a crack on Sunday providing the track isnt wet, as that throws form out the window!

They are saying that the ones in hospital are a third covid, a third the flu and the other third other things! The fact that they say that 96% or so were jabbed with the shite and yet people are still hospitalised from covid shows that the jabs were useless. The people hospitalised with flu so early in Winter is because the jabbed immunity has been compromised. The other third has alot to do with the jabbed now having adverse effects from Pfizer. Since when has a vaccine need to be used 4 times in one year plus the flu jab??? The citizens of NZ have been constantly lied to and unfortunately they have found so many very gullible people who believe in the lightweights BS, Wake up , you have been conned! Do the research( and I do not mean listening to the NZ media who are controlled by what they have to say. The ones who are catching and passing the flu on are the jabbed mostly. The non poisoned ones that I know that have tested positive, have next to no symptoms, and the jabbed have far more and worse. Problem is that immunity compromised will have the more issues unfortunately. On the news tonight people who now had the flu are saying that their symptoms are worse than the covid they had, so go figure! Covid19 was so overreacted to by Ardern and co and unfortunately the consequences for many both medically and financially is going to be massive! The chickens are going to come home to roost for those that voted the incompetents back in!!! Sad but true!

Robalan, probably not the place to discuss on here. Owned a property previously in Rolly for many years and never had a plane fly over the house, not that I was there often 😂
-
It has a lot of ability but showed at trials that it couldn’t be rushed early. It was always likely to gallop over a 2000 metre stand with horses around it. Its first start it drew the second row and wasn’t rushed out. Should never have been as short as it was and shortened up. Too much of a risk . Luv the Sunday meetings

Blackie, do not condone excess use of the whip, and drivers should be fined/ suspended big time if they are overly agressive. However the whip rule we had decades ago was acceptable and there didnt seem to be any issues. The whip rules they nave adopted over the past many years ks just blatantly stupid and needs changing! It does make you query the people that say that the whip doesnt make a horse run faster! Of course it does in 99% of the cases!
-
Isnt the Rasmussen property under the “Flightpath”? If it is then doubt it will ever get developed into housing unless they shifting it and doubt too many other owners will be putting their hand up to have it over theirs!
-
Far too short for a 2000metre stand, for a horse that is more than likely to gallop?
-
The most hits with the whip by a female driver in the straight?
-
Never been a harness driver obviously, but time and time again drivers are so busy fiddling around trying to find the whip in the sheet and then pulling the plugs and it is far too late to make mjch difference! Defies logic not having the whip in your hand by the quarter ready to pull the plugs when time is right. Continually you see drivers run out of room cos they have buggered around and lose their compass as where they are!!
-
In so many harness races, I see drivers getting the whip out and then pulling the deafeners at about the 100 metre mark! Seems to me to be far too late to be mucking around trying to find the whip and then letting the horse be able to hear. Seen it so many times and as a punter would prefer my driver to be far more organised! Surely better to have the whip in their hand by the 400 metres?
-
Mightve been the greyhounds on “P” lol Not sure but it was written with MVB and someone else and. Do not think it was Sherwood
-
Yep he wrote a combined article just the other day!
-
Galah, if you are stupid enough now to want to have further jabs of shite cos you think it works, then we just have to let them shorten their lives! There is just so much info out there if they want to know the truth! Why anyone would believe anything that this bunch of lightweights say defies any logic! How are you identifying yourself as at the moment Galah? There is just so much choice out there nowadays, you can be anything you want and schools are encouraging it! School teachers now that allow and teach this BS to our kids need to get sorted out!
-
It is the jabbed that are in hospital and bear in mind mostly old people who have had the toxins injected are the ones not with us anymore. PS it is not a damn Vaccine!!!!!!
-
The Pfizer jab is not a vaccine and never will be! By calling it a vaccine people were conned and coerced into having the toxins injected into their bodies! Pfizer were forced by the courts to release some of the details of their trials that Pfizer did not want to release for 75 years!!!!!!! Obviously everyone would be dead by then even the kids, so ot so hard to understand why they wanted that! The side effects from having the jabs as from Pfizer amounted to 9 full pages and if this was presented to the public, you would have to be a buffoon to have got them!!!! Pfizer were well aware that the jabs are dangerous and this was released as well in the second lot of info they were forced to produce! Why has this info not been on our mainstream media? Why not, because the media is under control of the government and who owns the biggest shares in the media around the world? The same as those that have been making the mega billions from selling the toxic Pfizer toxins!!!!!
