  1. Stable has fav at Motukarara today , Done Rockin??? Wow, who would back it, even if horse is good enough to win, cant see it.
  2. Well done, finally admitting the terrible state of NZ riders. Another day yesterday watching races, saw far more Aussie races than NZ races, but still saw many horses without riders racing in nz, FFS
  3. Horse is racing today, got it at $9-20 boosted odds. Will bolt in, pathetic rides previously
  4. Ideal Chevron out again today, still not on unruly? What odds it gallops and takes out a few runners again?
  5. Had every chance. Far worse decisions never get disq. How about Mandalay Bay, should have got put back?
  6. WTF, what was wrong with the start? Did officials have a punt on it? Also what about if it came 3rd or 4th??
  7. Wow, so much carnage in this race, hard to believe really. You would expect that shit from a maiden Trot race, not those horses. I am surprised Ideal Chevron wasn’t on the unruly today after his recent circus act, feel sorry for owners and punters. I thought Amaretto Franco was a chance today, but seems to always find bad luck. Steve McRae loyal type of guy, but Thornley seems to make wrong choices majority of time. Still, suppose that’s the difference between good drivers…. And others
  8. Totally agree….
  9. Betfair Aus offerered plenty of promos before 2020, had nothing after then. I actually led first week in the attached $10k promo and had $1000 deposited into acc. Then things changed and nothing offered, pools in NZ got smaller and really I got to the stage of mainly betting on sports or Aus racing, then opened sportsbet acc and they got most of my dough. Don’t miss BF, I was always crap with the lay option😆
  10. Used to get these offers quite a bit… real good
  11. Not sure it’s good for TAB to be bragging about a homeless man winning a bundle. Maybe that’s the reason he was homeless… gambling problem!!
  12. Yeah, I closed my account to although I had to ask them to close, maybe I bet more so they wanted to hold on to me, I would have liked a profit of $300 last couple of months like Galah. I really think Betfair Aus are struggling, I had no issue early on and they offered all sorts of promos, but had nothing for last couple of years. Do 70% betting with Sportsbet which have heaps promos, other 30% NZ Tab, which to be fair are offering more promos to customers. Not missed betfair, but I would say be careful using them.
  13. Yep, was correct. Several people I know in Ashburton have rain meter, all said around same reading.
  14. Well here is a tip…. Those in the Ashburton committee… forget ya lattes this morning, dig a few holes in places it flooded and get some basic drainage in, it’s simple.
  15. Yep, coast racing would have gone ahead yesterday. It was a nonsense decision
  16. 15mm in last 24hrs 😆😆🤫
  17. Obviously poor racecourse management and maintenance, travelled thru Ashburton today bugger all surface water.
  18. Yeah, funny how all of a sudden they have a heap runners. A bit like purdons, once money up things change, puts you off as a punter
  19. Yeah, well wherever. What are your views, pretty lack lustre last bit?
  20. Well, another meeting off today, why because it’s raining 😆😆😊😆. You can understand recently the wind issues, that is a H& S issue. But FFS, it’s only rain? Shame on trainers that have wet trackers, never get to race on them
  21. Did anyone see McDonald on this horse in R6 Randwick today? Talk about a quiet ride, was blocked but when clear horse hardly urged? What are your views?
  22. Yes, agree he is giving the horses a chance. I am just surprised how the team are going, well down on what the stable usually win
  23. Wow, have the Dunn stable had a winner since? What’s happening? Although John did drive a roughie for another trainer to win. They will be looking to improve for cup week
