  1. Yeah, over Micky G, needs to go get some more plastic surgery, christ his middle name should be Sistema… As for the Purdons, Mark & Nat had a real streamlined team operating down here a few yrs back, everything was going sweet….then all went crazy. They split up, not involved in driving or training…. somebody else running stable, son goes to Aus, Nat starts driving on occasions now gone… those running stable gone…. mark back, then gone, son comes back to train, mark back driving now going to Auckland…. what else have I missed? I have left out all of the rumours to be fair….
  2. Have a good trip….
  3. That Capton Roy is a flea…. surprised if it wins a race
  4. I think Brodie is gonna have a punt in n it…. be a famous sting, be a movie about it, how a punter bought the gambling world to a standstill with one longshot $18 winner🤣 HaHa, just win for me horse, I’ve had a decent punt on it by my standards. I reckon it will close at $8, unless BGP boys like it, will be $4
  5. Yep, why’s that?
  6. Alright, I have a horse that I am confident of winning this Friday at Cromwell. Race 4, no 10 Pounamu, it’s paying $18 but well worth punting on. Great 2nd on track 4 starts back, not had much luck since, but thought its last start 5th on the grass had winner next time all over it. Also Blair Orange takes the reins, 2nd line draw on issue as a few will want to race on speed. I am very confident….
  7. Obviously I didn’t notice, so maybe not much better
  8. Well, The 2 went around again with no chance… Must be a record that a trainer starts 2 horses paying $201 & $301….
  9. Clown was hooning close to outside rail, just a few metres from people probably doing 70k…. stupid
  10. I only usually punt on teams points start, mainly league. I never bet on warriors games, luckily as Melbourne capitulated first half, warriors swooped then no points 2nd half.
  11. What a tosser, driving his car so fast down straight before race 7 at speed. Health & Safety man , kids around, somebody have a chat to him…
  12. Happens in Harness as well, although far easier once horses are buried on inner. Dangerous jockeys putting on brakes when finding front, happens all the time, I too bet less on NZ racing & harness, Aus racing for me, but more betting on sports too
  13. Looking at some of the jockeys and the piss poor riding… probably looks like India…
  14. Yes, it’s his choice to race…. but comes a time when you have to sit back and ask what are you doing. It’s not like they could improve, both so badly out of form it’s crazy
  15. Would need to improve heaps after todays race to be chance
  16. Well, if they are banning dogs in NZ, surely couldn’t take dog racing from overseas? What am I missing?
  17. Won very, very well
  18. Too true, send them up with House, he needs a few more
  19. So will the TAB / Betcha continue to take gambling on greyhounds from overseas venues? One would say no, but who knows. When Entain took over didnt they state all TAB staff would have jobs for 2 years…. must be only a few months away, be interesting
  20. But are you surprised after the announcement, that very little has been said from other codes?
  21. I love the small trainer trying to burgle a win against the big stables…. but hell Kevs lining up his 2 horses mostly in the same race with terrible results. Give it up Kev, try and lease another one… good luck
  22. Not seen any pushback from Harness or Gallops regarding Greyhound racing ending soon. I never ever thought that we would see the end of dog racing in NZ…. saying that I am happy they are going, mainly because I hate watching them. Any views?
  23. Nah, I’ll be happy when they go, obviously those in other 2 codes happy too as I don’t see too many pushing back…
  24. I don’t think it’s silly, I have nothing against House but if he did win a premiership with his low class team, it shows where NZ harness is at the moment.
  25. Crazy move…. I think he is ready to retire so close to getting out of the game
