You are not allowed to treat Islands differently, just like you are not legally allowed to treat punters differently!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, if I actually did it properly, my top 5 would be in no particular order, Z Butcher, D Dunn, B Orange, T Williams, N Rasmussen. No sorry Eljay not for my list currently, but Herlihy would of been in my top 5 for sure in his high day. Who would you pick for your top 5? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest CrossCodes Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Sheree having another shocking day driving today, her drive on Cautious Galleon was abysmal, the horse will win one soon when it gets driven properly. She couldn’t get Afterburner around in one piece, big strong headed horse needs a strong driver, she couldn’t control him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just watched dylan ferguson drive in race 1 at cambridge. Very strange,seemed to be steered into a pocket.I remember an amatuer getting 3 months for not taking the big gap on the fence. Good drive by nicky chilcott,completely outdriving D ferguson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh dear I am too busy swanning around on BOAY that I missed the 1st race at Camb. Ill try and also add balance, Im prob too nice & positive. So here goes a more constructive criticism post. I find D Ferg to be a hit or miss driver. I liken it to when I get a photo taken. It's always very hit or miss also 😂 Be great for both of us when it is just HIT, HIT, HIT 😄 Word is tho that he is a very hard worker and will improve with time to become a great driver moving forward 😄 Edited March 4, 2021 by Karrots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the galah Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I see they have adjourned there inquiry into the d ferguson drive in race 1 last night.Punters confidence in investing was reduced by races like that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange,seemed to be steered into a pocket.I That was strange. Lap full of horse 400m out had eased off fence nicely to follow the winner home bend, all excellent so far. Then went back inside it (the 1-1 horse) again??? undid all the good work. got blocked and very lucky to even snatch 3rd. You would only do that if horse very tired. cost himself the win in all probability. You sure a right with saying Punters wouldn't enjoy that sort of thing with a favourite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karrots Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 25 minutes ago, whiplash smile said: I am just saying hes been driving a long time. A - he was still a junior driver at beginning of this season B - must be still in 20’s C - as you stated, people still learn things all the time. D - as I stated “word is” - which means I did not say it. Which also means how the heck should I know, what the people who said it, as to how long with time to (them) means. I took it as a positive, a compliment. Viewing it as the glass 1-2 full, oppose 1-2 empty. I would much prefer someone to describe as will improve with time, oppose will get worse with time.

This guy has been near the best since ever jumping in the sulky as a teen. As well as the enterprising KRUG drive to win the Derby last week, what a fine horse he has tonight winning in Last Tango In Heaven. It won very easily and is gunna be a fantastic horse. Part owned by wife Suzanne.(nee Purdon) Wonder if the O Purdon in the ownership is Suzanne's brother OWEN. He is in my top 5 north Island drivers. battling it out with A.G.Herlihy and P.T.Wolfenden each week, and doing a great Job of it. Then young brother Mark took over the reins and the wins.
