Robalan, yes it is a harness racing site but if you want to contribute on the Darkside where some of the contributors contribute nothing whatsoever to the industry then that is your perogative! Reality is that what the citizens have had to endure due to government directions is far more important than harness racing that is struggling ! Why on earth is Methven persisting with this blatantly stupid mile racing?????????

Unfortunately people were too believing in the BS that they endured for years and still are. Yes it is very divisive and shame on those that ridiculed the ones that did not agree to be injected with the unproven so called vaccine Spoken to many people and most now are aware that they were badly conned and won’t be having anymore! You would have to have rocks in your head if you still believe that Ardern, Bloomfield etc. had your best interests at heart. Know two more people personally that unfortunately recently passed away prematurely! 😢

It is repugnant that the media still advertises to go and get your booster to protect yourself and your Whanau!!!!!! FFS reality is that it is quite the opposite in that it is harmfull to your health. Constantly hearing of people with heart issues, deaths, cancers and many other health issues and anyone that has educated themselves know that it is from the toxins from pfizer. Those that took the injections should be very very angry with the ones that advised you to be injected with an unproven concoction of toxins!!!!!!

How on earth can Fitzthebill go very average at its first start at Oamaru after having an economic run, come out second up sitting parked all the way, and WIN?? Seriously one of the biggest improvement in a horse I have seen! It cleaned up horses that beat it by many lengths last start, and sitting parked this time on Ashburton? There is no way on earth this horse ran true to what it had shown previously and no way you couldve considered it as a chance to run a place in that field! What is going on here, going to be interesting to hear what the trainer Andrew Faulks has done to show so much improvement!

The facts are that the Pfizer toxins were bought by the NZ Labour Party without any checking of the Pfizer Company and its checkered past! If the truth about what the so called vaccine trials showed there would not have been anyone actually get the shit injected into them. What it shows is that people are very easily led without looking into things properly. The truth is that the Pfizer jabs were of no benefit to anyone, in fact millions worldwide are currently having health issues due to the toxins and will in the future. Not going to scare people but the consequences are massive from listening to these incompetents! Here we have all these people saying they got their free jabs for the sake of NZ people and unfortunately it has come out recently saying that the jabs did not stop transmission at all! People who didnt have the jabs were stopped from going many places and doing things because they didnt succumb to the BS! Hopefully those that did get jabbed have learnt alot from this and wont be sucked into being Guinea Pigs for the biggest over reaction to a virus in history and the biggest cost to the planet ever. NZ is going to suffer massively due to our incompetent Ardern’s actions!

The Auckland harness racing is stuffed, no two ways about it! You can put any spin on it but how many were aware just how dire the situation is? Yes they could sell Pukekohe but that is going to see heaps drop out of the industry as there will be no where to train from. Reality is that the racing industry in NZ is going into major headwinds with the huge increase in the cost of living currently, and is only going to get far worse. Brodie has always stated that this lot in control of New Zealand at the moment are the most incompetent bunch of losers we have ever had!! Another year of them and so much more carnage all due to people voting the clowns back in after performing dismally in their first term.

Power Plays are a great initiative by the NZ TAB! However, not as great as you can not invest in them at betting agencies or On Course!!!!!!!! The point is that they want to try new things but they are CONTROL FREAKS!!!! Nothing worth having s crack on tonight apart from some Power Plays and they are not worth the effort when you can only win a pittance on Account!!! Come on NZ TAB your controlling nature is stifling the industry big time.

Blatant BS that continues to plague NZ! What has happened to this country when we have just so many Dickheads making idiotic decisions! They want to kill the livability of the country for its citizens! The Effwits now want us to be crawling around the streets at 30KPH and 60kph on motorways!!!!!!! very interesting that a Pfizer executive has confirmed that the Pfizer Toxins that most people were sucked into getting injected were never proven to stop transmission!! So you Guinea Pigs that think you were doing it to protect others were foolish inded. The problems from the Pfizer injections are continuing to occur.

Would be good if they would let punters on for decent amounts! $30 is not a decent amount! Give them an Option No. and allow punters to bet oncourse and outlets!!

Anyone that can watch a video could see most of what was stated. Why they still bother with having betting on amateur races is hard to fathom. What do they expect from Amateurs, but yet they always get treated like the fulltimers! Pointless even asking Sarah O’reilly the question!! If the Stipes had any professionalism, they would know that Sweet Belle has ability and wasnt a run out of the ordinary!!

Just read the Stipes report from the meeting today at Timaru. Geez I dont think I have read a bigger one ever, mustve taken a while to write it all up lol. A lot of it is a load of rubbish and worthless really! They really are not that flash and many people could do what they do nowadays with bugger all training. An example is that they questioned Sarah O’Reilly on the improved performance from Sweet Belle That finished third! Apart from the stupidity of asking the question, they accepted Sarah’s explanation that the horse had been racing without much luck from bad barrier draws in recent starts!! She also stated the horse had been able to capitalise on an economical run today lol! THE HORSE SAT PARKED OUT FOR THE WHOLE RACE!!! Since when has sitting parked without any cover for the whole race been classed as an ECONOMICAL RUN??????? This lot are not that flash !

Personally think they are shocking fields to be punting on! Too many Allstars around to make it worth the risk or effort! Bring on Timaru, far better betting proposition.

it has now been corrected

Not sure what us going on here? Watching the video the horses to my mind do not look skinny? What does Mr Boyd say about this lot coming on his property and nicking HIS horses? Has there been any Court Case ?

This is what I had last week and the TAB said that they had no problems??? Maybe you have been banned from Punting Ranga?

Yes from watching the replays The Crossing was diabolical. Lets just chuck some loose grass on top of the gravel that should be fine!!!!!!! This has come up regularly on many of our grass tracks and nothing surer it will turn punters off and away from racing! HRNZ are extremely quiet at the moment and I do not believe at all, that betting turnover on harness racing is healthy! Punters are fleeing.

With respect, if the Stipes couldnt determine that the horse galloped over 50 metres in a continuous gallop then they need to go to SpecSavers and they are totally inept! How anyone could have any confidence in this Officialdom is impossible to fathom!, Maybe they should be looking for another career? Shocking decision once again.

Unfortunately it doesn’t take a whole lot of intelligence to be a Stipe nowadays. From what I know it ain’t going to get any better on the future ! Not sure whether a I can say this Chief, but personally think they do a less than average job and are grossly over remunerated.

Consistency and common sense is not a priority nowadays with the judiciary of harness racing unfortunately.

Doesnt put Hamish Hunter’s training ability in a very good light, does it??

It was the last race Galah! Want to get home as it was getting cold! Didnt watch any races live, but have just watched the replay and yes it was going rough many times inside the last 200metres. Yes it did gallop continuously for at least 50 metres and shouldve been ousted but there are dumb rules that HRNZ have adopted so they dont have to do any work! You are correct that because it was an AllStars horse it would be given favours!!

Does no one know the answer?

Seems to me that if someone that only wants 1% share in a horse then they probably wont have over a spare $3k to part with for the initial purchase. To my mind it would be better to be in a syndicate with a horse that is up and running rather than a $340k unproven yearling! Still think for many, syndicates are great for racing for affordabilty and enjoyment.

What is the monthly training bill Mardy going by your %?

Are these options available oncourse and TAB agencies does anyone know? or are they only available online? Why are there no option no.s??????
