Newmarket Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 Riccarton has turned into a front running track too…. longest straight in NZ yet favours leaders? FFS, if your a punter and want every chance to win, bet in Aus…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLB2.0 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Apparently, according to scoobyiqlowerthan30, we're not allowed to criticise tracks. We are allowed to criticise jockeys, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Stipe Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Yeah well the Champagne Turf looks more like the Moonshine Sod. What a fall from heady heights in a short space of time. It looks trashed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was grass grub there would be patches within the green bits. Again the shute must be concrete - break 1:08 on a Soft 6? Yeah na!

SLB2.0 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Aren't times at Trentham always off? Pretty sure 1200m is actually 1150m at that dive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely they have measured the 1200m course numerous times. If you look at the shute it is rock hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Stipe Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 They just ran 1.06.63 in the Lightening - go figure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Stipe Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 That's nearly a NZ Record for 1200m!! Second fastest in NZ ever!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLB2.0 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Exactly... regardless of how dry the track is down the chute, they can't run those times over an accurate 1200m - especially on a slow6/7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingman Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 You have to take their times with a large gulp of disbelief. R4 Tossuforit R65 1200m wins its 2nd race in 21 starts in a time of 1.07.83 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLB2.0 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Even on a Good 0.0001, Tossuforit isn't running those times, so what's happening here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLB2.0 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Scooby.... you can't say this "See I was 100% correct negative negative negative....go back to your pit and have your discussions with yourself...I am tired of all your negativity sorry....SLG will be happy with the negativity." And then less than 24 hours say this "All you can do is just Laugh.. and it will continue to be the demise of racing....no point putting up fancy stakes and big days if the tracks are farked, because most of them are....wake up the people who are in charge of this recurring theme... you are quite clearly incompetent and should just leave." Why so negative? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why so negative? But apparently Ellerslie and Trentham are perfect. Hypocriscy at its best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hand time according to the Stewards Report. All times were hand timed. Not sure how they do that when you can't see the start of the 1200m through the houses. But the bigger question is this isn't the first time this season they have had issues with the electronic timing at Trentham. Why the hell can't it be fixed at the Champagne Premier Turf?

I've never seen something like it. You can't trust a single thing this guy says because he'll contradict himself 1 hour later, and he's too thick to even realise, which is the sad part. He won't unban my two accounts over there because he knows I'll pull him up on every falsehood he posts, every hypocritical post he makes, and none of his little lemmings will ever do that.
