Gammalite Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 What a wonderful Driving exhibition by the 'Teams' last night. Race 2 Addington saw Team Dunn work the race beautifully and run easy Quinella. they had 3 of the 6 runners. Race 10 at Alex Park saw the Team Telfer (five of the 8 runners ) get the FIRST 4 !!by a great tactical display (that saw poor Zac Butcher on their MAIN OPPONENT ,finish Way out the back. !! Amazing! reminds you of the 10/10 exhibition by ALLSTARS in the AUCKLAND CUP on Dec 31st. Perfection at work !! And Contrary to what people say with the Absolute Rubbish about 'Horses not running on their merits.' Team driving HELPS THEM ALL MORE WITH CHANCE of winning than NOT, because of the help you are getting from Stablemates (HUGE ADVANTAGE demonstrated successfully many times by ALLSTARS) AND the inconvenience (and loss) caused to the MAIN OPPONENT in each of these 3 races, by the perfect team co-ordination. !!! excellent NZ teamwork !!! e.g Copy That (AKLD cup) AJWhitesocks (R2 last night Addington) and Captain Nemo R10 Akld last night) Can't wait to see what Team McCarthy can come up with in the $1million Miracle Mile tonight !! (3 of the 8 runners) Exciting stuff !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljay Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 I suppose if the whole field was from the same stable - a la the Coles in the hounds - you would still bleat about "team driving" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been lots of criticism about Team driving in NZ harness , and costing poor punters their chance, etc.... I say Rubbish , with Team driving your odds are GREATLY INCREASED of winning . PlanA , PlanB to beat your MAIN OPPONENTS. everybody knows this but won't admit it. So Lets take a look at some NZers Tonight in Race 5 Menangle (A Group 1 FFA worth 100k) wouldn't you think that the 4 McCarthy runners will work it to run the placings??? Star Gallaria, and Mach Shard recently arrived from NZ, all you guys know well, and TURN IT UP driven by the McCarthy Dad.??? so he'll be helping too !!!!! will be great. If they can't beat the OTHER 5 runners with some TEAM DRIVING I'll be 'bleating well disappointed' !!! hahahahaa Edited March 6, 2021 by Gammalite add word Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't touch it with your money. lol... Ben YOLE does that in Tasmania EVERY WEEK, stacks a field with 6-8 runners every week, never a feature race though. Leading Trainer in Australia ??? 44 wins from 500 starters since JAN 1. absolute disgrace. I wrote to Tas harness a few times saying , "What a JOKE' not a hope in the world you could bet on those races. At least ALLSTARS had some rivals they still had to beat? and did it well too !!!!! Do something about it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balraj (could of stayed on fence early) and along with 4th stable horse Bright Energy being used as the LEAD OUT TRAIN like a cycling team at the Tour De France !!!!!! Just magic to watch. Carted The 2 NZers into beautifully ! well done Team McCarthy , just as good an exhibition as what the Allstars and Dunns can produce. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
