telfer horses

[the galah]

i see maurice mckendry driving most of the  telfer horses today,instead of j dickie, who only drove the one from the stable who wasn't given much chance by the trainer in the preview.

They certainly are different drivers. Mckendry tends to drive at a more consistent speed,but not very aggressive most of the time ,whereas dickie tends to put them up on the speed whenever he gets the chance.

because mckendry drives them kinder and the horse doesn't bust a gut trying,the stable may improve,but then again dickie is the better driver if you are a punter.

who knows

its a stable i think you would go broke betting on,but they are nz 's leading stable on wins.

Theres also seems a  diifference in performance if north island horses  transfer to the south island,they always improve,but then  lose a few lengths when they go back up north.

the horses in the north isalnd tend to go way from stands ,whereas the horses in the south island tend to always break in stands. Of course there are some obvious exception.

then you also have the north isalnd horses go better when t williams drives themif hes up there.

i find them a confusing stable to follow.

but they look like they will break the nz record for number of wins.

Just back Tim Williams when he is on them. They seem to fire for him. 

Dickie not much of a driver since he came back from Australia. Seems to end up parked or no room on too many horses that should be winning. 

He can still get one home if he is in front. Several drivers like that in the South as well.

Cox, Smith and a few of the girls Green, Tomlinson's, Thornley's you want to be on them if they are in front or trail but no thanks if they are back in the field. Up the middle with no room the norm.

i never consider them if they are running  on wet grass tracks.They never seem to go much good. And you have to factor in they don't travel well if going to places like the coast but the opposite applies when they go to southland,as they seem to go  even better there. Theres been those patterns for some time now,obviously theres a reason,but you could only guess.

Thats why i said earlier ,you would go broke backing them,even though they win so many races.

Track wasn't really wet, hardly marked it, they were poor, but so were a few others, can't really blame the track.

Thats why grass is so popular with punters. Those bigger stables can not dominate like they can on the grit.

Hard to believe a few of the big win bets today on a grass track at Westport!

The Bookies take these bets and yet restrict smaller bets?

one bet was $10k @ $2.50 was never a good value bet at all!

There were others that also looked more of a gamble than a worthwhile punt?

My point is with punters offloading like this, surely in best interests of the TAB/Entain to stop all restrictions on punters and get the turnover and profit up??
