  1. The numbers in the 2yo races lately are a concern….
  2. We lived in Warrington St for many years, until I left home and moved about a bit, don’t miss Opawa
  3. Maybe so, but you stated you were surprised that meeting was still on, and conditions not good. Surely it’s like any workplace, if you’re putting yourself, staff & jockeys in a non ideal situation…. you should have done something about it and scratched them.
  4. Surely your joking….. Dom is a complete tosser…..Why would OP ever think of doing a podcast with him? He asked some pathetic questions, listened to first 15 mins but had enough, he did say he liked the girls🤣🤣
  5. Funny you post that, lived over Opawa way many years ago….. Heathcote usually burst its banks couple times a year…. nothings changed
  6. But if you were that concerned….. why didn’t you scratch?
  7. Used to love watching winter racing, Greek Meer ploughing through the mud while it was pissing down…..used to happen most weeks. Hardly now though, too many snowflakes, too bad if you have a mudlark, hardly gonna get a run….
  8. State of emergency….. don’t be fooled mate. It’s mainly in the Selwyn district or areas that flood all the time, so be exception is Akaroa highway, that’s bad. Bugger all in town, of course the low lying areas that sunk after earthquakes, but that’s always gonna happen.
  9. Worked in construction mate for many years….started work at 6am working 10hr days, so while you stopped at 10am warming ya hands and having a snooze…. I was still doing the heavy lifting in all conditions….. god you come up with some shit, what about everyone else working outside each day…..
  10. But this is normal down here….as a kid I had ice on the inside of my bedroom window when I woke up?
  11. I live in Christchurch….. trust me the weather and wind was worse at 6am this morning that it was when called off…..
  12. So Synthetic track…. still abandoned? Was it track conditions or something else? Ta
  13. I’ve only been betting with Betcha lately, offering me more. TAB lagging behind bigtime
  14. Been offering odds surge on many meetings lately….
  15. Well it got a win🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Had been going a little better recently, so with these weak fields popped out of one one and just got up on a wet track….. get them both to Mickey Mouse…. be open class by Xmas 🫣
  16. Punters getting sick of it…. I had a free day at home so invested a few bucks in early races, didn’t bet after race 4. Pretty obvious it was heavy before first race
  17. Yeah agree…. Could tell during first race it was not a Soft 5
  18. Thanks, I heard something like that? Always something, vet issue, no ambulance, starting gates wrong place etc. That track looks an absolute bog, Soft 5 my arse…..
  19. Ok, what’s happening with this meeting. One of the few times I have had a few bets on shitty NZ racing….and not racing. Surely wouldn’t be the track would it? Oh well, least I get my money back to invest in Aussie later. How lucky is NZ that Australia give them access to their racing for a small fee, with the dogs gone next year TAB / Entain gonna be in 💩
  20. Great post Gamma…. Their young horses no longer dominate like they used to. I see Equine Blood Solutions seem to be no longer operating🤔
  21. How can you compare All Stars to Michael House? That is totally ridiculous, as I have mentioned stay away from the HRNZ info…. take notice of those that watch NZ Harness every week. All Stars have so many owners paying big money for nags, crazy to compare.
  22. Wow…. you’re one crazy dude. What are you gonna do when the mutts stop racing?
  23. Like racing in Aus in the summer
  24. Oh well, I suppose on that run tonight, shows how poor the opposition was in NZ he beat…. gone a long way from home.
  25. Yes very sad….
