    Try to attract customers to their NZ brands? Are you talking about overseas customers being lured by Entain?

    Very good post. Entain have stated they want to take the NZ 3 codes around the world. Ok, so that’s fine. But they will want those punters to bet on product outside NZ, yet they want to stop NZ punters from betting elsewhere? FFS, what am I missing?

    Race 1 today at Echuca , Our Red Morning. Ex kiwi horse which I thought was a good bet. Stuck a bit on it, had the perfect trail yet stayed there the whole way up straight to finish well back? Now, it was hard to see if gap was there or not, thought early in straight Zac Spain could have pushed through, but maybe not? Give us your views please, want to see what others think before I add to Black Book 👍

    Not surprising all the big trainers support this, they get most of the major prize money now, just want more. Maybe Australian racing should not allow their product to be used by tab/Entain? Now that would stuff them up

    Will be interesting if they push ahead with blocking. If they want to take NZ racing to the world, they will want those overseas to punt with Entain /Tab?? But don’t want NZers betting elsewhere? Talk about having ya cake and eat it too…. Could backfire

    So you don’t think that even with an Australian VPN address, that I won’t be able to bet in Aussie? Sportsbet allow Australian & NZ punters only, do you think that NZ government can control where we can bet? Or will it be Sportsbet that cancel NZers accounts? Surely if government stop punting overseas, that will affect all gambling? What about EBay, they miss out on gst outlaw EBay make them buy trademe, where will it end. Still trying to find out will overseas punters will be able to bet with Entain / Tab??? They need to be open
  7. Newmarket
    Yep, you may be right. Although it did make good ground last bit, you would think that would be just as wet

    I’ve done my homework regarding a VPN. Gonna be easy to set up on a personal iPhone, which is where I bet 100%. If I had to give up betting with Aus operators, I would just give up gambling. I hate people trying to control

    Just to add, that ride on West Coast was fantastic

    Any thoughts about the standing starts last night? Some appeared to be mobile standing starts, some got a flyer.

    Robin Butt seemed a real nice bloke. I remember he trained a nice mare in Agrinion. Backed her one day against Royden Glen who was red hot fav. He galloped a lap or so out, Agrinion in front and I was counting my money. Only thing, Royden Glenn put up an amazing performance to just get up on the line….I was filthy😆

    Just watched the first jumps race, didn’t have a bet but thought The Grinner would go well. Now I am no expert in jumps racing, but it seemed to be crowded most of the race, horse didn’t seem happy racing with others. Long way off turning for home, but made ground well for 3rd? What do others think, could jockey have ridden differently? Not having a go here, just asking the question.

    Gammalite, Were you in NZ for these races?
  14. Newmarket
    Thanks, makes me feel better
  15. Newmarket
    Yep, good picking.
  16. Newmarket
    Yeah true, I am deflated. Don’t worry, will still keep betting against it and the House stable so big divs will continue
  17. Newmarket
    Oooops, ok I was wrong. Good win, I’ve got egg on my face, hope the believers got plenty. Just to rub my nose in it more, house got quin. 😬

    Well, The legend is running again in a few minutes. Drawn well you would think it will zoom to the front, if it can go 2.23 like 2 starts ago must go close. After all, Dance till dawn went same time recently with a far easier draw? As for my thoughts, I will say it won’t finish in the first 5, will have every chance and I will still have questions about its recent run. Good luck if your having a buck on it
  19. Newmarket
    Mick probably thinks he can bet on credit again….yeah it was a total misunderstand wasn’t it 😆

    So. As for the geo blocking. Entain /TAB want NO nz punters betting overseas. But overseas punters can bet on the NZ Tab? How will this work, go through Entain sub account then get channeled to TAB? I smell a huge rat here
  21. Newmarket
    No surprise the government have pushed back decisions regarding greyhound racing. Google….Entain and Arena Racing Company. More questions than answers.

    Anti Gambling lady on TV1 breakfast news this morning. Not too happy about the deal, she said they know no details about merger, or what to expect. Wow, this whole thing seems very shady
  23. Newmarket
    So many questions to ask, where does one start. 1, Where is the increased turnover coming from, do they expect to scoop every dollar currently bet from NZ overseas? 2, Are the looking for the On Line casino business or gambling on gaming to prop things up? 3, Will overseas gamblers be able to bet with NZ tab from June 1st, across all types betting? 4, Will current promos stop if they are successful geo blocking? Seems they are talking about a huge amount of money, where will it come from????
  24. Newmarket
    Not many times I agree with you, but this time I do. If they are offering such good betting opportunities, why do they need to geo block? Trust me, I’m not stopping betting overseas. Entain specialise on gaming, they won’t give a shit about nz racing, harness & dogs. They will just want people gambling on slots. Keiren, your a disgrace, I suggest you have killed off the average nz punter

    You’re missing the point. When it won it drew outside and went hard first 800m. Last race it had cushy run and offered little, forget who it raced against. Let’s see what it does next few starts, I’m picking it will not win a race in its next 6 starts, will race poorly. Then we can all look back and wonder how it won that race
