Flagship uberalles Posted November 25, 2019 Author Share Posted November 25, 2019 1 minute ago, Gammalite said: Well it seems as the draw gets near that about a third of the runners are 'PURDON' runners. (bigBar or Mark) , a third are the 'AUSSIES', and a third 'THE REST'. One of those groups doesn't look overly strong. Maybe they will put 1/2 of the runners (from each of these 3 groups) , in each of the 2 Heats. Things will be interesting if some of the Aussies or classie brigade want to hold the lead or get driven aggressively against all star horses, they are used to most kiwi drivers handing up easily and letting them dictate feature races with the number of horses they have in them.....that's what I like about Aussie drivers generally, they value getting the front.

Gammalite Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Just trying to pop on some all up bets before the draw. My picks Habibi Inta ( trotting 4.02 for 2 miles and 3.00 for mile1/2 last 2 starts) ???? that would beat some of the pacers. and Bling It On , one of the best pacers I have ever seen. Won Victoria Cup recently beating 'Cruz B' and 'Colt 31' easy enough. Even though 9 he has always been good 50+ wins from 88 starts and over 50 of those were Group races for BLING IT ON. Bring It On !!!! 18. Habibi Inta Alexandra Park Race. 1 WINFM 6.00 Potential Return$60.00 10. Bling It On Alexandra Park Race. 1 WINFM 9.00 Potential Return$90.00 Standard Multi (2 legs @ 54.00) Combine all singlesshow legs 2 Legs Odds54.00 Potential Return$540.00 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangatira Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 of course they may run 3 heats on the 2nd night nice to see they have taken the brodsters comments on board and won't be running over 1609.3m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had wondered in on my birthday Nov 2004 and was some funny entertainment for sure. Over 100 runs for the last wicket with Gillespie. Kiwis then rolled for 76 in their second Dig.

Richie B was the greatest cricket commentator. Loved Ritchie, never forget his reaction to the dreaded underarm incident. He was absolutely disgusted and was so close to giving them a spray.[that would of been great] Latest Gabba test just finished yesterday .Pummeled the Pakis this time round. Aus unbeaten for over 30 years at Gabba now. only 13,000 went each day. struggling now because of 20/20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodie Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Not too sure why they wouldn’t go with 3 heats rather than the 2? Is it anything to do with less stake money being paid out? With fields being so big, more chance of horses being interfered with and bad luck if you get back on the fence! Anyway, decision made and hope it is a great series and Auckland Club can make some serious money, as they certainly need it bigtime!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats right it was the year of the Quakes! Not enough horses prepared to travel from the South Island or Oz to race, maybe because it is right handed? Stake for heats at $30k not that impressive but interesting to see that same stakes for the trotters in the heats!

The kiwi drivers have a lot of 'distance' race driving so are used to giving up the lead. lots of room on the big grass tracks etc. and using good judgement. A lot of speed racing here in Aus. especially Brisbane and Menangle where they head to the Top and want to hold it. Before that there were plenty of 'Open Air' drivers, not wanting to follow a helmet at all , even if parked or 3-wide even. GAMMALITE a great example. Parked more often than not. Pure Steel always 3 -wide.(but that poor bugger had to endure handicaps all the time) Vinny Knight , Jimmy O'sullivan always out and attacking on many horses. Death or glory !! Lightning Blue shoved out 4 wide a lapout in 87' Interdominion at Addington and 100 whip-strikes later,........Glory !! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those Aussies horses in that series destroyed the tame bunch of Kiwis. It was downright embarrassing. Thank goodness Bag Limit was scratched during the series or the locals wouldn't have won a dime.
