Brodie Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) Just watched race 8 and as exciting as paint drying to watch! The 2 favourites The Moonshadow and The Bull Pen, Both just sat out the back and ran on but out of the money. The leader was given an easy time and nothing moved! If you backed the favourites you would be a bit peeved! Will The Stipes ask the questions that need asking? Maybe, but they will just get BS! No wonder there are a shortage of horses and owners up there! Edited July 5, 2019 by Brodie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterthepunter Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 good stake money up there just crappy horses racing for it plus more and more horses sold two massive sales this week of top line horses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brodie Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) Certainly the standard of the racing is inferior to the South Island Racing by a long way. With the good stake money up, you would wonder why so many just sit and don’t get Serious till far too late! That race 8 was a shocker, as if you haven’t moved before the home bend you have got next to no chance of winning. Yawn!

LongOwner Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 All racing is bad - bad horses or good horses follow the leader or good horses team driving and sorted out before the start . Team driving is cheating ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasketti Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 As someone who was at the park tonight I disagree with race 8. Nice to see a non favourite win. Not sure who you are inferring team drove above. So much negativity no wonder people don’t want to be involved with racing. People can’t accept some times the horses don’t run as predicted. Get over it or don’t watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get over it or don’t watch You may be happy that the 2 hot favorites were driven in a way so as to have no chance to win,but I think punters were just hoping they may have got a run for their money . Punters like that,some even expect that.. I don't know if anyone inferred there was team driving, although I think the green stable is the worst offender at that in the north island. That wasn't an obvious case of it though. Who knows? Edited July 5, 2019 by the galah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must depend on driver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
