  1. Bit crazy having back to back grass track racing?
  2. Sportsbet and other Aussie bookies also offering less
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. So is he back?
  7. 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!
  8. 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.
  9. Pretty good on channel 504…. Except for Pip and Dagg being stupid. Luckily Aussie team, Greg and Craig doing well. As for the other giggling woman waltzing around the stables…. Wow, nonsense
  10. I enjoyed adding comments to this 🤭🤭
  11. Why would he bother…. he struggled up Nth against very few trainers….now he comes down here against better horses, trainers & drivers. Nothing special in his stable, so don’t expect much
  12. Haha…. surely you got something better to do than counting a couple of extra whips…. good on the jockey, I backed it. You must have punted the runner up
  13. Was a joke…..
  14. Will be a big night for this person…. Most likely life changing
  15. Yeah, well good on you. Sadly, I couldn’t see it finish in the top 10.
  16. Strange race, those at the back loomed into race wide…. all did little. Was left to outsiders charging thru. Most didn’t handle the 2 miles, I backed Zardozi, thought big chance 200m out, went a little early but didn’t quite see out distance. Sea King no chance from last, made up ground to finish 6L away, but never likely
  17. Come on, even you can see the obvious there. Both 3rd and 4th horses went too early, perfectly timed run by 1st & 2nd horses. Some reputations dented in that race, bookies have had a field day
  18. Yeah, it was a disgrace. Entain not improved TAB app on big days. Couldn’t put treble on last 3 races at Melbourne…didn’t show option
  19. Kah went too early…..
  20. Did see they changed to a day from 7. When you clicked on deal it did show when they expired, won’t worry me as I spend that day, or place for next days racing. Reason is…. so many times I forgot about them and they expired afta 7 days. Don’t think we can complain too much, we have far more promos that couple yrs ago. Sign up for Betcha, between them and TAB some good offers ahead. I see TAB has option on Melbourne cup day, take fixed odds bet on races 1,2 or 3 up to $50, then you get free bet on races 4,5 & 6. Not quite sure if it’s one bet on each race, 1,2 &3, or if it’s only one bet from the first 3 races? Got 2nd & 3rd back at first 6 races at Kaikoura 2moro, I still use Sportsbet as well
  21. Oh well, let’s see how she goes Tuesday, won’t get any of my money. She will need a few winners as she will miss last 2 days with suspension for dodgy riding…. a few weeks back she was in trouble for not riding out a horse….mmmm
  22. Looks like she only has 5 rides Tuesday…. but your gonna tell me that is all she wanted. Craig Williams has full book….
  23. I think Sea King is a good chance.
  24. Come on….. All you do is get excited every time she wins…. I look at the whole picture. She gets beaten on more favoured runners than any other jock.
  25. Oh, well yes your correct. But did appear to have clear run ahead before veering left, be interesting stipes report. Strange that they lodged an enquiry, but maybe they thought they should try and get a few extra bucks for owners. Whichever way you look at it, connections would be gutted
