  1. And just to top the 2 days off, Bella Lindally galloped hopelessly 😆😆🤭🤭 I love gambling, let’s do it all again soon
  2. I’m glad it’s over😆😆 Looking forward to Addington Friday, but more so the Aus gallops Saturday
  3. Should have punted your picks instead of my unlucky nags from first day, although I did back first one 👍
  4. Oh Well…. Lester a lack lustre 3rd. Given a great trip by Kim, but obviously didn’t back up that well, his race to win was last Friday when fresh, shit happens. Well done John Dunn, out driving a heap of these guys each week in front👍
  5. Only 2 Minutes until Lester runs…..I am getting excited
  6. Brodie should buy this nag, then fe could drive it. Could be another White Arrow…
  7. Thought exactly the same, wonder if he thought there was a 3rd day🤭
  8. Oh Well, Style Council again begins well and settles 4th, next minute he is last. Stayed on inside, flew late to be beaten half length😆😆😆. Only lost a few bonus bets as never had much confidence in driver, but less after last 2 days. I suppose big difference in drivers, you would never imagine Blair O or John D being so unlucky on a horse today after going so well first day. Funny thing, about 150m out there is a gap that any other driver would push through, but he waits for a couple of strides before he gets through, costs him the race. Pity the owners…. Right, let’s hope Lester goes big soon and restores my faith😆
  9. Did Trackside do some sort of tribute to him yesterday, I didn’t watch all day. Maybe someone could share link, ta
  10. Totally agree with all you said. I have heaps of Freebets on TAB and Sportsbet, so off loaded on all the nags I have mentioned on this thread, still had the most on Lester & Style Council, agree too short but I can only use tab bonus bets on fixed odds, so if the go down the gurgles I will feel better😆. I do have a go on the TABs bonus bets, and Sportsbet too, had $540 to use😆😆, I only bet for a win mostly
  11. Haha, I’m not a big punter, $10, $20 or $50 is about my limit, that was what I put on Lester and Style Council, only $50 win. So no damage done, used to bet a bit more years ago but I learnt😆
  12. Yes, I assume you’re talking about White Star Orlando, no luck in straight. Bella Lindenny had no room late also. Well, everyone will know how my puntings gone after tomorrows meeting, I see Lester paying $5, not much value there in a stronger field, while Style Council paying $4-80 mmm. But what has been pleasing about the Blenheim track, horses have been winning from everywhere, yay. On another note, Just Ask Paddy? Watched replay a few times, looks like it lost its gate just before line, thought it might get relegated, or did they go easy on trainer as he was a local?
  13. Agree with you, painfull at times. Knowledge of racing and gambling is pretty poor overall. Worst part for me is the blind chimp they employ to put numbers on bottom of screen that show first 3 runners?? FFS, most of the time they are wrong, then after a close finish, up pops a photo finish banner, right over the finish line when replay shown, hopeless.
  14. Good luck to him, I am sure he will be picked up doing something involved in racing, after all he is entertaining as well as being a great caller. Who is the new young caller?
  15. Agree, no idea why driver opted to gamble on inside passage, when could have peeled of horse in fronts back and had clear run? Wont bag Kim too much, sometimes she comments on here😆
  16. Derby?
  17. Can remember Lopez MacFaber, always liked the Lopez name in a horse.
  18. Another couple to watch Sunday. Lester, galloped early but still could have gone close to winning if gaps came. Annas Boy, looked to be angling into good outside position 1000m out, strangely driver went to inside and found itself last. Wouldn’t have beaten Muscle Bank who went huge after early gallop, but should have finished a lot closer.
  19. Oh well, What we know after seeing the last 200 metres of that race…. Obviously didn’t want to win first day otherwise would have pulled off winners back earlier and got the win! Yep, my money talking here, horse ran very well, began well then pushed back to last to finish an unlucky 2nd. Oh well,
  20. Good money for it today, bolted in
  21. Stable certainly on fire recently
  22. Well winners are coming from those up front…. Not seen many charging from the back winning.
  23. Totally agree, Kennedy average lately. One to watch next time… To Catch A Thief. Was going to be in the finish until gap closed late
  24. Be interesting to see how track plays. I am expecting a front runners bias
  25. His beach training certainly had tongues wagging in the 80s/90s. All his horses ripped along in front, ran fields ragged. Really, he was ahead of his time, as drivers now do exactly the same, especially beach trainers. Had a few run ins with officials..
