  1. I don’t mind drone, it’s only shown for a short time.
  2. Well, for all you moaners out there giving Entain crap….. just remember this. The bullshit NZ racing scene is going down the drain, constant abandoned meetings, owners, trainers, punters sick of NZ racing. Luckily Tab /Entain have dogs & harness in NZ, but more than that, real lucky to have Aus racing and sports!!! Be thankful,
  3. Used to have good 4yos racing early in the New Year. Think Lord Module raced there too…
  4. Colum…. Ooh sounds painful. Just mentioning that he is trying to chase winners…. But not getting them. Letting punters know, don’t follow this guy, you will go broke.
  5. Well, his nag was scratched, would have got beat anyway. Punted Vegas Queen, bolted in and no late deductions 😁
  6. This guy misjudged a few rides at Riccarton yesterday, started day off today at Ruakaka going far too early? Certainly would avoid betting on his nags, got red hot fav next race, be wary.
  7. Yes, agree. I am trying to find out who the local harness trainers were, those that are still training and those that have tossed the game in. Ta
  8. Since the closure of Forbury, how many trainers in the Dunedin area have given up training? Really sad Forbury closed
  9. Yeah, well let’s see. No doubt if he did come back he would get the rides, mainly due to the poor selection of good riders in sth island.
  10. Crazy response, why compare riders fitness with mine? I’m not riding so not a worthwhile conversation is it. If you get excited watching TK ride, well good on ya. Why don’t you get Leo back out riding,
  11. Look, CWJ has been great for NZ racing, been around a long time and his record speaks for itself. But to come back at his age after injury I think is a poor decision. Look at Tony Allan, pity he came back
  12. I am sure the F/Os pricing is getting far worse, especially when they offer odds surge options. Very few end up paying more than tote result
  13. Very sad indeed. Thoughts are with family and friends
  14. Confused that he is even thinking of returning to race riding. He is 59yo but looks about 70yo, should just give up and be remembered as a great jockey
  15. Might be the reason accounts are closing. Be interesting to see what Sportsbet do.
  16. This will be interesting…. Probably reason some Aus operators closing NZ accounts
  17. Will never go ahead. If they stop nz punters gambling overseas, why not stop those buying online? Where will it stop
  18. He was interviewed before first race, obviously sick. These clown riders call off races all the time if it gets slippery, so if they are crook you would think he would not ride???
  19. Not the point if he wins or comes last, it’s like any workplace, if you’re not fit you should not be working. Especially as we are told how dangerous riding is. You do understand what I am saying? Strange you put up how many wins he has for season, then get excited that he wins a race? Strange….
  20. What about Fred Fletcher with Royden Glen? Piss poor driver but horse was great stayer, I remember him hard driven on Dominion night to win, was out sprinted start before by Preux Chavalier
  21. I bet you had some fun on that rocking horse….
  22. Me thinks Forbury lost his milk money on the trots last night….
  23. Hardly going to bring in Geo Blocking…. How will overseas punters punt on Entain casino? Can’t have it both ways
  24. You know what…. Meetings get called off at the drop of a hat because of track conditions… Here this guy is getting interviewed today, clearly not well. I’ve watched plenty of medical shows, this guys either got covid or a bad chest infection. Clown interviewing him said go get a drink of water…. FFS, not fit to be riding.
  25. But why carry whips at all? It’s proven carrying a whip will not control a horse, especially harness horses
