  1. Hope nobody’s offloading on the Purdon runners tonite. Remember the golden rule, only punt them when the big moneys up, then they can race 3 wide the trip and still win. Otherwise, when no moneys up they race like tonite.
  2. Wow, this guy must be the unluckiest driver ever on the Purdon Red Hot Favs!! Bollinger galloped hopelessly as fav twice, now Franco mac got beaten??
  3. Wonder why they are giving up? David did well training, he did get into a bit of trouble early on with his crops🤭
  4. Wow, what a response!! Mind you Aquaman, You probably assume I don’t like dogs, or even want your beloved greyhound sport to continue. That’s not the case, sadly the greyhound brigade only have themselves to blame if the sport is banned. Probably hot heads like you that have not helped over the years, the sport has been run by arrogant clowns in a pathetic circus for years. So, do I want dog racing banned, I couldn’t care one way or the other, never bet on them. Do I think dogs should be allowed to race meetings, no.
  5. You may be right
  6. John Dunn is not my most favourite driver, one reason why is the fact that many horses he drives are well punted on, far shorter than they should be. No doubting his ability, he is a top class driver. i have been following a horse called Cast A Shadow. Has been going great races lately paying big money, last 2 starts driver gave it no show, frustrating as a punter. John Dunn driving today, only paying $10. Had to have a good go even though I thought odds a little skinny, it was a superb drive from start to finish by Dunn and it cruised home.
  7. Sad to see this horse put down today, won some great races with a big future ahead. Poor jockey also breaking her leg, really feel sorry for the trainer.
  8. My main point was it got attacked twice yet still won. I know it’s a pretty handy stayer, but didn’t think it could still win. Shows calibre of the also runs, open class fields are shit nowadays. Good to see driver staying in front, if that was in sth island, nobody would have attacked
  9. Wow, got attacked twice yet still fought back. Nothing in his past few starts suggested he could do that. For the sake of punters, hope it gets tested.
  10. Thank god Unhinged, somebody with a brain. Signs everywhere stating who can and can’t enter the stabling area, didn’t see…anyone with a mutt is welcome. I like dogs, but from a H&S aspect why would you allow dogs in the stabling area, some horses and trainers may not want dogs around.
  11. 5 x I counted in stabling area, 3 in picture. Not every stable has a dog, I thought dogs on course was against the rules?
  12. I am at Reefton today. Seen many dogs on track, now I have just seen 5 in the stabling area??? What are the rules on that?
  13. Yes it was bad. Not as obvious as Gav not trying to hard to win an earlier race, and the stipes didn’t even look into it 😳
  14. Too be honest, I have no issue with drivers engaging in a speed duel. It happens all the time in Aus, makes racing more exciting. Happens little in the Sth Island as too many drivers are mates, bros, cousins etc, so they let whoever they want to dictate the races.
  15. I think if he did park outside Firefox for the last lap, result would be the same.
  16. Good stuff Chief posting clip. What does everyone think about the drive. For me, the 2nd horse has no real sharp speed so needed awhile to wind up. Clearly the driver thought he was driving Christian Cullen which would have put paid to them.
  17. That’s a boy Gav, 2 races later and your 3 deep driving a horse you part own, you even look around half way thru the race, you were keen to win. Push out on home corner, drive hard to win, go Kiwi Ex Factor. i bet poor Jack Harrington is kicking himself for not driving Jeremy, thats for sure.
  18. God you talk some crap, who said it would have won? It would have gone close with you riding it
  19. Who the hell listens to Rodley??? You say he got it right, you are an absolute muppet. Suggest you watch the race again, maybe with all the Xmas pav you had yesterday, affected your eyesight with your diabetes
  20. Too true.
  21. Wow, this guy gave Jeremy Wells no chance of winning today. I assume he didn’t want to beat John Dunn on the favourite Mark Dunnett? Hope the stipes ask the question, not a good look to have a driver sitting behind leader when racing on a small track. and yes, this time I did back Jeremy Wells
  22. What a terrible ride on Run For Perfection. Was never gonna get a run, but still tried for gaps that were never going to come. this guy is very overrated, only wins on hotpot’s that any chimp with one arm could win on. By the way, never had bet on the race, feel sorry for those that did bet on it. If you did lose your dough, get on next time, would be surprised if owners stay loyal to the so called… Lethal😆
  23. Just get vaccinated, the anti vax types are bloody stupid.
  24. No big money tonight, so many purdon favs beaten …
  25. Thanks
