  1. Good one 👍
  2. You could say, that once Tony Lee departs, George retires, Matt Cross takes up offer elsewhere….we will have the worst bunch of race callers NZ has ever had.
  3. Ok, I don’t usually go for these comps but pick an option out for me, ta 👍
  4. Try and post 15, that would be good
  5. Never met the guy…. But seems a nice genuine bloke
  6. Shad, Brodie can you think of a Harness trainer that has trained a good galloper that has won at least 5 races?
  7. Think he had a winner before Xmas at Riccarton
  8. It seems we have always had Harness Trainers dabbling in Training gallopers, recently with Mark Jones and Michael House going well in this code. I would have thought Mark Purdon would have trained a winner yet, but not close yet. My question is, we do not see many Gallops Trainers having a go with the harness horses, but when they do they don’t just win a race, they are top class horses. Below are a few I can remember, others will know more! Harnetts Creek- J Parsons Dillon Dale-Don Dwyer Yulestar- L Nolen What other good horses can anyone remember, either code dabbling on the other side, maybe there are some good gallopers that harness trainers have trained 👍
  9. Wouldn’t worry too much, whatever happens close to the beach there appears to be no consequences
  10. He should be calling instead of Aaron. I heard him today at Cambridge, he gets excited every race, something is charging home with a chance of winning, but if ya sitting at home watching you know otherwise. Nonsense, caller. The guy at Mot today not flash, I know he is filling in but we could find better
  11. Looks like TAB For Ever is… Mick Guerin? You type of prats should not be doing TAB surveys…. They need to be completed by your average punter
  12. You’re a funny man, well I assume a man. Paint chipped off seats and bird poo…. poor state of toilets??? Listen to yourself, recently at Motukarara they had many new portaloos avail, even emptied half way thru day. Yes, facility’s are outdated but that never bothered the 1000s that turned up. I can assume that you are a white collar type…. No doubt attending tennis events in posh areas with your similar young mates. Funny you mentioned getting a $10 free bet for answering questions on day???I thought you work for the TAB??? I smell a RAT
  13. Rockburn should have won race 2 Hastings today, Kennedy made run too late. Punters are backing all his rides now, good opportunity to get better odds on other horses. Time will tell, he had a stellar day recently where everything fell in place same as other jockeys, but I see him as a good jockey but nothing special
  14. The ones you stated are ok…. It’s the others I am worried about. I am looking forward to meeting, but the riding is going to be shit.
  15. Just looked at riders on Kumara meeting tomorrow, wow that must be the most inexperienced lot of jockeys we have ever seen in the Sth Island? What are others views?
  16. He needs a bit more practise on Ruakaka track ….had one winner but took off yesterday on it, wouldn’t say a good ride. Chief could have got that one home
  17. Rumour has it…. Off to Aus soon
  18. Usually I clash with Freda’s comments… but this time I agree 100%
  19. Wow…. That’s a long post mainly about nothing. Is this actually a piss take…. surely somebody representing the TAB is on here called TAB For Ever??? FFS…
  20. Whenever I look up results from late 70s or 80s, most of the time the Divs are not available on HRNZ? How did you find these, ta
  21. Was Wifi for first couple of races until crowd arrived, wifi back on for race 9. I suppose you get that many people trying to watch tab as well as others live streaming, you can see issue. Been there several times in last year, wifi works fine at all meetings, except the busy Xmas one. TAB should be able to set up free satellite wifi for day and use for other meetings around nz in similar situations. Saved me money, horses went crap and couldn’t be bothered going to get cash
  22. I am surprised they started Flow Motion at Reefton? Poor nag was obviously knackered with previous run, was tailed off most of race?
  23. Let’s see who is right, your obviously infatuated with her…. But I will say her career has well and truly peaked, all downhill from here. Australian trainers and owners want results
