Excellent effort tonight at Addington. Fourth in the cup and two fine wins. A seriously good horseman.

Pembrook Playboy went so well !, closing in 2 lengths on the current NZ Cup champion Self Assured up the straight.Beaten a length and certainly deserved more than 4th. $4.5k seems so poor alas.

Nathan Williamson Might have to do what family Brad and Phil W did with Majestic Man and find some features In Australia to win , which they did with Great results recently. 150k profits and (getting away from Sundee Son)

while you have such Horsepower as Pembrook Playboy. Too hard chasing Cullens all the time.

That not a great idea to take pembrook playboy to Aussie as it is there with a chance in any major NZ race.sick of chasing the team driving cheats that's the only reason it lost the Easter cup it HAD NO ONE TO HELP.this is not horse racing it's cheating by team driving.its a disgusting disgrace.a blight on NZ trots

I thought it was Ben Hope's fault by stopping instead of giving him a drag into the race?  😆

Possibly, I just said that for Pembrook Playboy to visit Aus, as Mach Shard picked up a GROUP 1 $100k race in Australia this year too , and wouldn't of got one there in NZ in all likelihood. (against Cullens)

Yes Nathen W 'Had No One To HELP' is dead right. I agree and would love some of those features to have the 3 Cullens, BUT also 3 of Dunns, and 3 x Williamsons and maybe 3 x Telfers or so to even things up a bit tactically. would be a bit more cracking then.

I was meaning why would you give up a chance to win NZ cup FFA etc.nathans horse is really on the upward spiral and Aussie like everything else would destroy that ever happening.

And I like the idea of an Oamaru lad, now based in Southland, coming up to Chch and showing them how it's done.

Easter Cup = perfect demonstration why not

, Auckland Cup = you know what happens, NZ Cup = might as well put the Allstars on it now. won 6 of last 7 and beaten head in the other with Smolda who galloped and gave Arden Rooney 50m start.

Well it had 20m start last night,so that may well turn out to have been its best opportunity. Races like the nz cup are ffa's,so they will be much harder to win than last night.

That was the thing that frustrated me the most Galahs. Its not like they had to be used hard early to try to wrestle the lead off the A-Team. It was there for them. But anyways

Poor B Hope, you keep picking on him Forbs. I was watching the beginning of race intentively and thought I saw AGs go away cleanly for a handful of strides, but then the horse not driver had a brain fart or something & started to gallop, only after it went initially away.

Hittheroadjack Ben hopes drive was dangerous for himself horse and others and to who would be silly enough to back him today.hes worse than Shree two jnrs who have not improved and struggle to win a race with there driving ability most of the time it's a fluke or they are on the best horse

Forbs, I was not talking about that. My reply was about AG's in Easter Cup. 

Your talking about something here, that at the time of posting was in the future tense. 

Goodness gracious, I can't keep up.

Others have done it. Alister Black won two races with Vintage Cheddar during NZ Cup carnival. Tank/Barclay also won a few.

Lol Ben hope was the reason his horse galloped away lol.nathan had no help where the all stars cheats did....

This is factual incorrect re B Hope. I have just gone & watched the start of the race & as I said AG's initially went away, he paced for 5 strides then went into a gallop.
