Yes the costs will be much reduced but the markup on the hospitality is massive and will leave a huge hole in the income for the year. Will agree to disagree that it is going to be a major loss to the industry both monetary wise and to increase interest in racing from potential newbies. Cindy doesn’t care, socialists dont.

Karrotsisback Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 With the Spring Cup, Im curious to see how Bad to the Bone goes against Copy That. 2 out of 3 times they meet, Copy That had lead, while Bad to the Bone was parked. Be interesting if Bad to The Bone draws & gets away well from a stand to lead or trail & Copy That is left to do the work this time. Bad to the Bone starts fresh up tho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karrotsisback Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 On 9/28/2021 at 5:31 PM, Karrotsisback said: To get back to topic thought Id do a quick update on Road to Cup. An interview on radio Senz, Green told Guerin that Copy That will race once only in North next week Spring Cup as long as it gets off the ground, then head South. Approx 4 other Northern hopes have already ventured South & are lining up this week. Purdon was also interviewed & said that Self Assured is big & round lol going into race this week, but with 2-3 runs under his belt prior Cup by Cup should be screwed down. Majestic Man is back in the trot as is Sundees Son. So some nice re-matches coming up, as Majestic Man gets a 10 metre advantage. On 10/1/2021 at 9:49 AM, Karrotsisback said: Who wins the Canty Classic tonight? Gamms you like these races to bet on, who you think? Or anyone? Self Assured fav even tho an article out today HRNZ saying he's bigger/rounder than normal only 85-90% fit at best & he will be driving him conservatively not looking to mid-race move looking for lead. Thought this sentence was funny. And shows an example of Guerin speaking his opinion more. "Gifted the front". "But if and when South Coast Arden moves he is gifted the front, again that seems unlikely, then the dynamic of the race changes enormously". Surely no driver would hand the lead up to South Coast Arden ... On 10/1/2021 at 10:37 AM, Karrotsisback said: Morning @Chief Stipe @Brodie @hunterthepunter What are the 3 of your thoughts on today lead up races to Road to Cup, Who wins the Trot? Who wins the Classic? Or is there a horse you would like to see go well? On 10/1/2021 at 11:52 AM, Karrotsisback said: BUT today is a BIG for the connections of these horses. To see how they go. Only approx 5 weeks til the BIG DANCE. Wonder if Pembroke Playboy will be driven more aggressively after his last race held up ... ? Gamms might have some selections for us, or maybe Mikey NZ or Honest John. Or maybe even Enteebee might give us an update on how Majestic Man is and how they hope he will go today ? On 10/1/2021 at 6:03 PM, Karrotsisback said: On 10/1/2021 at 8:04 PM, Karrotsisback said: Tend to agree with you Roman re peak fitness. Its next up so lets see 👀 Ill be keeping an eye on Pembroke Playboy, Robyns Playboy & the Northern horse Kango. Hard for Kango tho off unruly. Great nite so far for Dunns, chopped up that field. 3 wins already tonight including a quinella in the fast run main Trot tonight. Agree with Self A best horse in field. However not at peak fitness. So think gives others a chance to win if a horse like Pembroke P gets a good run, then has a chance. A few are good stand starters too e.g. Classie B, Pembrook P & Robyns Playboy. Will it be foot down at the start to see who can get to the front? Lets fact check specially for Ludwig and Ranga. Just taking a look back from this thread off the front page only. 10 posts some obviously were pulled from another thread and ALL 10 of mine are on topic. Rangas 4 posts only 1 is. But it was actually a dig at Hunter re Nat winning. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was exciting race to watch with moves & no stable driving. Congrats to connections of South Coast Arden.

I On 10/2/2021 at 10:40 AM, Karrotsisback said: Yes indeed Hunter & Dunn is quite the good driver too 👍 We could do a BOAY CUP rank list Top 6 + 1 wildcard going on results after each Road to Cup race. Based on placings last nite Pacers 1st = South Coast Arden + (wildcard Amazing Dream after impressive Oz win) 2nd Pembroke Playboy 3rd Self Assured 4th Classie B 5th Robyns Playboy 6th Kango Trotters 1st = Sundees Son + Mataderos (wildcard after impressive win) 2nd Chief of Staff 3rd Midnight Dash 4th Woodstone 5th Majestic Man 6th The Dominator On 10/2/2021 at 1:01 PM, Karrotsisback said: Yeah the pacing one. Just noticed there are LOTS of horses in the race or is there more. 12 isn't it or is that not right? Taking 1 out would help ease the traffic slightly. Not so bad if they didn't have sulkies but with sulkies it makes it tougher. On 10/3/2021 at 11:49 AM, Karrotsisback said: For the past 5 years, its been All Stars as trainers, & their usual owners & drivers has been them too, with 1 exclusion Orange. For past 7 years same thing bar 1 horse 2015 Arden Rooney - Manning trainer/driver which likes like an Aussie with Aussie owners. For the reason above & that reason ONLY, would this year like too see the Cup go a different trainer/s, driver & owners for 2021. Whoever doesn’t bother me. Id be rooting for South Coast Arden being a Northern horse BUT same owners & horse is stabled at All Stars & same driver. Hence following ALL the OTHERS in lead up races that may have a chance, should they get a good trip Cup Day (including Di Caprio) 😃 Page 2, ALL bar 1 were on topic - and that was answering Honest J re his Hot chick he used to follow. Rangas 3 - 1 was a mock , 1 was off topic but topic had been brought up & 1 was talking about the past. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you are saying maybe Sundees Son will too ... ? Interesting, well then sorry Gamms if that is the case re SA can't see him winning. Would take a lot of team driving & don't think that will happen this year lol. Even Sundees Son off 10 metres then having to circle that BIG WHOLE FIELD, makes it a lot tougher for him. 22 hours ago, Karrotsisback said: Tots down with Gamms here, what a gimme. Both Sundees Son & Self Assured should be off 10 metres As Green says “Dont know who it is, that makes these decisions”. Lol what a hoot he is.
