So out of 10 how would you rate the drivers you have mentioned. (Previous high) Main strengths/weaknesses. And are they trending up or down. I reckon 9.5 B Orange (9.5) He is wide awake in regard to what is going on around him. Gives me confidence to bet. 7.0 R May (9.0) Not quite where he has been previously. Great if he got back to his peak. 8.5 M Jones (9.5) Most races he would be the best driver not out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlairO had 35 drives! past 2 weeks at the 4 meetings Addington/Ashburton for 2 Wins .oh dear. $1.40 for Sugar Me . $2.00 win div for Talent Agent . rest of the drivers have 'rounded him up' lol... Great to see the in-form Junior Sarah O'Reilly take over and get the win last Friday.

BUT don't forget his 'Victor' in the NZ Junior driving Championship .

Here is DENY EVERYTHING (sitting last in the back straight from 13 Barrier draw, in the Yellow Colours) What a completely Amazing Training effort. First up since a win 2 years ago in 2019 , circles the field from this point, 3 wide last bend pressing forward . (No One Could even track it up in fast 55.7 last half mile) and he runs down the Hot pot fav SOCRATES who had blazed out the 1.57 mile rate , (2.55.5 for 2400m incredible) now Mark JONES should take a Bow for that wonderful training performance! , as much as Sarah getting credit. Must be a Seriously GOOD horse that bloke. This frame photo down the back 1000m out gives me a real fright, as the 'death-seat' horse TETRICK number 8, gets head very low , without a head check . must be pretty scary for young Dalgety driving that one ???? crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karrotsisback Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Yeah Gamms & Forbs, I def have drivers that there is no way I would bet on, even if horse is the best in race. I also just don't openly go naming those drivers. Don't really get any join out of doing that. See it as being a Team a Team of 2 when they hit the track. Horse + Driver. O'Reilly & Sugar Me are my 2 new favs, combined together AS a TEAM. No I in TEAM. Edited September 13, 2021 by Karrotsisback 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
