    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😆

    Used to get these offers quite a bit… real good

    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!!

    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.

    Yep, was correct. Several people I know in Ashburton have rain meter, all said around same reading.
  6. Newmarket
    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.
  7. Newmarket
    Yep, coast racing would have gone ahead yesterday. It was a nonsense decision

    15mm in last 24hrs 😆😆🤫

    Obviously poor racecourse management and maintenance, travelled thru Ashburton today bugger all surface water.
  11. Newmarket
    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
  12. Newmarket
    Yeah, well wherever. What are your views, pretty lack lustre last bit?
  13. Newmarket
    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

    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?
  15. Newmarket
    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
  16. Newmarket
    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
  17. Newmarket
    I agree. Just shows how hard it is to win from the back. That drone view of that final turn, anything pulling out or already 3 wide do struggle. I see they said 20 tonnes of grit been placed lately, compacted on inside, but looks pretty boggy out wide

    Here’s a shot of the fixed odds on race 2 tomorrow at Kaikoura….wow, I thought Entain was going to give us better fixed odds?
  19. Newmarket
    All good, I’m not here to rough you up. You do a lot of good for the harness game, we will agree to disagree, good luck for Weds
  20. Newmarket
    Well, Methven never get the crowds Mot get, not sure why your annoyed with that. Just my personal view, I no longer punt at Methven due to the constant track conditions. You do know everyone asks the question why horses do not charge from the back like they used to? Is the reason the track upgrade? Funny having the longest grass straight, yet only favours those on pace?
  21. Newmarket
    Agree, let’s have more meetings at Rangiora grass or Mot. Methven track is a joke since they fluffed around with it, nothing comes from the back, yet they still stick to that short distance racing
  22. Newmarket
    Ha Ha, weather is now clear, blue sky
  23. Newmarket
    Yeah, funny thing, I see Nigel (who I like 😊) posted on Facebook stating meeting off, funny thing he posted picture of them racing in the snow from years ago? Who makes the call? Is it Health & Safety issue, or people don’t want to get feet wet?
  24. Newmarket
    Yep, it’s gone burger. Shame for drivers, trainers & owners to be told only 2 and a half hours before first race. Club should be ashamed, mind you might be a good thing with the nonsense short racing and foot long grass. Motukarara club miles ahead..
  25. Newmarket
    Is this meeting gone?
