    Thanks

    Hi All, I assume today’s meeting is on the grit, not grass? Thanks
  3. Newmarket
    NZ pools on betfair always poor, mind you if you like Aus harness & gallops & sports, you will get good odds.
  4. Newmarket
    So come on, what’s the goss. So Purdon is back training again??
  5. Newmarket
    Only racing on the Monday at Addington, best decision really.
  6. Newmarket
    Right, come on. They need to make a decision today, so come on let’s have the news. confirm it will be at Addington and what the options are.

    Come on guys, I look at heading, NZ Cup and Dominion and expect an exciting thread, this is all bullshit.

    Hopefully HRNZ make the call early on, so many can cancel bookings etc. The Kaikoura club could do ok out of it if addington takes the meetings, with plenty of dining options with no limits, many would take up that offer, as long as prices not too greedy, if they are, will go to pub and bet with sportsbet

    Wow, wonder what cup week will look like this year, this COVID nonsense is a joke
  10. Newmarket
    Yeah, 4 of us just cancelled too. A shame, feel sorry for the club. But no way will they race at kaikoura this year, no time to plan or get horses to track. Who would have thought, no cases in sth island for ages, go figure, I’m 😡

    Where did you hear that?
  12. Newmarket
    Both pretty good nags. Will win at short notice, just have to factor in the driving skills when looking at odds
  13. Newmarket
    Wow, the Tomlinson girls butchered a couple tonight, both were getting perfect runs early, but slow to react. Zsahara and Mighty Reactor, will win soon once drivers give them a chance. And no, I didn’t bet on them tonite.

    So horses raced in a trial, not even a race? Didn’t know they test at trials?

    Everyone knows I am no fan, that is for sure. But he is well know, mostly for all the wrong reasons. But if voters do not recognise anyone but molloy, he will get the vote.

    Hi Nina, I would not worry about Forbury or the aptly named Retarded Driver, they talk nonsense. Hold your head up high, you and Greg have done a good job bringing up Ben, he seems a nice young lad. As for the original post, I agree the lack of speed in many Addington races is terrible, so bad that I have stopped betting, will wait until the better races come along. Far more competitive racing at Auckland, that is where my money goes recently.
  17. Newmarket
    You know what, I think he has a good chance. Aucklanders won’t care about his past, he is well known and will put up a fight. Will be very interesting indeed

    Ants has always been a quality driver, for a very long time. If he was back in nz, of course he would be in the top 6 drivers, record speaks for itself. Hope it all goes well in Aus for them, I can see the timing right, am sure they will get plenty of nz horses coming their way.
  19. Newmarket
    Yes, last couple races Vincent trained him. Last race was from a long handicap at timaru I think, finished midfield, I had a punt on him🥴.
  20. Newmarket
    Yeah, not sure why Maria races these horses, been a long time since she last had a winner. Didn’t know she moved up there, thought she was still in Canterbury. Drove a few winners in the 80s when working for K J Vincent, Andronicus, Spangled Lord etc
  21. Newmarket
    Going 8 wide on the turn didn’t help it 🥴. With the exception of a few drivers, that is probably the worst junior drivers races I have seen, didn’t have a bet luckily
  22. Newmarket
    Good oil
  23. Newmarket
    I agree, no way was she clear before she found the rails. Really surprised it held 4th, was there an enquiry?
  24. Newmarket
    Look, I know the girl has been getting the winners, but that drive in the first a shocker. Even more amazing, how did the horse retain 4th place, caused huge interference yet not disqualified? Can somebody explain, Ta
  25. Newmarket
    Funny as a punter, you usually remember the times a horse is unlucky, driver gets the blame all the time. Jonny Cox on Motu Elite Hanover, not a bad horse, but had more bad luck than good, maybe driver error once or twice😆😆. I remember missing pick 6 once, horse blocked up with nowhere to go, thought it cost me a fortune, peeved for a week. Even if horse had got clear, still might not have won, but it is always different from a punters view
