Newmarket

I thought it better Westport on 2, keep gallops on 1

Well Thomarse…. If you looked at photo finish I thought it showed Yaldy had a margin? But who cares, won on protest so worry about what ya having for breakie tomorrow

Another day of poor riding. All the good jocks at Ellerslie, rest of the chimps riding elsewhere in NZ

Wow, I’ve seen it all. The quality of NZ jockeys makes you cringe….

Another joke… So safe to run first 3 races…. but deemed unsafe for racing after??? What am I missing

It seems every Friday night when I am streaming from my IPad from the TAB app, it is slow and fussy, quality terrible. Once I watch Trackside on same device on Sky, it works perfect? Anyone else have issues, seems other days it’s fine.

You sure about the 45%?

Well said, those in the game just have to look at themselves

I hope not..

As I mentioned many months ago, Geo Blocking is off the table, common sense prevails. Seems they will rely on amendments to the Racing Act to stop NZs punting overseas. Wouldn’t worry too much, won’t happen until at least 2026. And about the $180m figure mentioned, what makes Entain think they will scoop most of this if they are successful? I use Sportsbet, TAB & Betcha, all offer something different and seperate promos. If I can no longer bet with Sportsbet, i won’t increase my spend with TAB or Betcha, I’m not that desperate. Surely won’t be too many punters that bet solely with Aus operators, I don’t understand.

I agree with you

Thought I would look and see if Tab or Betcha had any top up bonus bet offers…. but both have had this up all day 🫣🤭 You watch, we will get deposit offers soon

Only 6 times banned… it seems more😁. I’m more interested in what he spends his time during the banned years

Good….So many dodgy pricks involved in that dog racing, should have been gone long ago. Im surprised it has taking this long, many years ago dogs went missing, videos of live kills…. the industry is shit. Best news of 2024, those wanting to continue racing, go overseas and like up with the travelers…

Will be remembered for the weakest Inters ever…. Quite sad

Yeah, maybe a bit harsh but look back thru his starts, galloped in many. Poor Hilarious Guest, she would be looking down thinking her offspring have been crap

Surely there comes a time when rouge nags get banned for life. Ideal Chevron is an example, it’s an erratic pig, should be retired. Not my money speaking, never back it, but feel sorry for other trainers / owners that their horses get affected, time and time again

Bit crazy having back to back grass track racing?

Sportsbet and other Aussie bookies also offering less

Yeah, get rid of Manawatu….those field are a disgrace. Mickey House is a funny man…. a couple years back he was gonna get out of harness and train gallopers coz harness wasn’t paying bill….. still flogging below par horses, I never bet there

Yeah but 2 or 3 teams from memory jumped out to a good lead, all over $1k from memory. So everyone was chasing, which mainly gets punters chasing bigger divs…. and those in front lost a bit of ground, was a few favs beaten. Was a good day

Talking of Aussies…. Several times during the day I saw Aussie punters trying to cash in large bets that were not part of punters club. A few puzzled faces when they were told it needed to be deposited in NZ TAB Account, which of course they didn’t have…. Not sure what happened.

So is he back?

FFS…. Israel Dagg is looking like a complete tool… I assume he is employed by TAB? Whoever thought of him teaming up with Pip to provide entertainment… is a nutcase!

Anyone else attend punters club at Addington yesterday? Be interesting to hear others views, below are mine. THE GOOD…Food was great, buffet style meal, followed by sweats after. Savouries came out later, while pizzas were supplied later in night, full marks👍. THE BAD…Whoever set up the area, was not really catering for punters. Couldnt hear anyone talking on mic….had 4 small TVs similar size to those in my bedroom….one had a reality womans show on until we asked someone to change…. volume was hopeless, everyone struggled to hear races? $9 for a can of speights… bar didn’t take cash…. I know, maybe no big deal, but here I am sitting at home in front of a big TV with sound, thinking how lucky I am about to watch Riccarton races.
