NZ cup

Recommended Posts

Krug is the over the odds horse and drew perfect for him.this fully crazy horse just may put it all together and if he does he will go close.he had a rating in my book on par with christen me with his win in Sydney before chariots of Fire just like christen me did.my top pick drew good and bad and will need a Zac butcher special.i do think old town road is a huge chance and totally under rated compared to some other horses who are totally over rated cough cough all stars.good luck all

Well Forbs might scoff at Allstars there lol... but since they have won 6 of the past 8 Nz Cups (and ran 2nd in the other 2) I can look no further than number one .

A previous Cup winner and current Auckland Cup champion over the 3200m stand , to be driven by near the best driver in the world ????

No need to look any further ... I just stopped at One . Should get a gun trip from there . Onya Nat !!

True facts but there is one difference this year the horses ain't performing anywhere near what they did in previous years.just like the melb cup leaving out the euros I will be leaving out the all stars in quadie and pick 6 that's for certain.they will be very lucky to even run top 2 and that's just my ratings not bias.i have four horses beating there three that's for sure.its the best NZ cup in a long time it's a beauty.cannot wait for it and this Friday looks good to with massive fields.

Well yes and no. You guys are just that used to Nat (or Mark) winning half the card yuz are saying they are under-performing. 

I think the other stables have just caught up a bit and are running good times (looking at Telfer Barn mainly)

lso say the Allstars performance is still very high. Yet another Auckland Cup this year with Nat winning with Self Assured (thats 7 (seven !!) in a row of those for Allstars) and the very rich prize-money 'The RACE 'was run at Cambridge for the first time. Won by guess who ??

Millwood Nike could be a Superstar . still unbeaten. Others have Good draws Sires stakes Tuesday too , so watch out for them .....so still an EXCELLENT year for a bad one ?..... good on em' really. producing such a high standard for so long.

AND good luck with your quaddie anyway as well Forbs.

Yes I understand only talking about cup and they do not have the firepower this year gtd.ill bet my life on it that's how certain I am the all stars will not win the cup this year.you talk about the cups and the race well this is miles and miles stronger field this year.ill go as far to say it's just about the best field I've seen.no one turned up for cup trial.heres the result of that.

Pl Bk Horse Time Driver
1 1 Rock N Roll Doo 3-11.8 M I Stanley
2 3 Old Town Road   Z E Butcher
3 2 Krug   C J Dalgety (J)
Margins
1/2 head, 4 3/4 lengths
Times
Mile Rate: 1-58.6 Last 800m: 54.0 Last 400m: 27.1.                Great to see also John Morrison drive beach ball to victory I hope he gets the race drive and life's a beach back in form.hes a star if only he gets the support and as a result of lack of support you can try too hard and mess it up as a result.south island is very competitive.

On another subject champion how did you fair on melb cup day.i got trifecta missed first 4 cause of fav and got the NZ tab for plenty on race 3 Echuca due to no deductions.got 4.6 paid 2.3.i was very surprised I was eligible as I don't get bonus bets or any promos but I could do that cool.if you didn't see the absolute shocking pathetic shake your head ride on queen air on Saturday watch it.that jockey has a cognitive impairment and is blind and cannot steer it was one of the worst rides you'll ever see.sangster owned will go close on oaks for sure.four starts for zero but that's your oaks winner I hope.got a lot of study replays to do for Friday's meeting it's huge can't wait.i follow the weather(heat)where we go how absolute crazy is it.first heatwave hits north coast and then it's back to winter again with snow falling in the snowy mountains just eight hours away crazy stuff.heard the loudest lightning strike ever to when storm hit other day it shook the building and sounded like a huge bomb went off.i used to love mark but since he went with Nat things changed for the worse.my mentor said the same thing and he was one of the biggest punters in NZ history and loved mark even bought his first horse for 40k and gave it to him to train.sad thing is mark said it was no good so did robert Anderson and sold it for meat pies which I didn't like hearing.i had one huge bet when I met mark at mooney valley on a big race night.young Rufus destroyed them.all the best champion catch up Monday after this next massive four days.

Disclaimer I said before race when alligator blood won at Sandown the only way it wins if it juiced up on epos that cannot be detected USA vets brag about it and with its form after that you would say yes so that's the only way the all stars could win.

The whale has rightly so been sacked with Mick guerin from cup punters club.boys get paid are doing this year.if you gathered the data on the whale over the last five years for a hundred dollar win bet on his losers he would be losing tens of thousands of dollars he's a great NZ tab employee

Worst possible draw for the famous Elmer "mobile" standing start

After Peter Lambs apprentice starter botched the cup trial and failed to call a false start with Sigrid which was denied a fair start I will have to include the all stars in the pick 6 100k terminating.nz trots is a pathetic disgrace with this starter and cognitive impairment stewards

A big call forbs 😯, but you could be right . They Allstars did get rolled last year when I thought they would win. but got the trifecta for $10 with them the year before.

Excellent ! you got Melbourne Cup Tri ! I did ok but not the Tri this time . Did last year with beautiful Nz horse Veery Eleegant though.  (Qlder Incentivise 2nd)

Hoping for an Aussie Quinella in Nz Cup next week lol. that would be fun to stir a few kiwi mates. I only came over for one Nz Cup with a horse and we Won it. very nice. (wasn't Gammalite ) Gammalite had 2 cracks but was off 10m and then 30m handicaps back in the day. bit too hard against the best in New Zealand.

just been reading Sydney herald  .have your stewards lost the f...king plot  

They continue to show their total incompetence !

Lightweights with no ability whatsoever, but that see s to be the prerequisite to be a Stipe!

There is no one coming thru with the ability either!

I agree mate. Lambs' apprentice was good for a few months but his standards have slipped. He is still better than Lamb, let's face Stevie Wonder would do a better job than Lamb, but too many starts are a shambles. Drivers delaying the start needs to be knocked on the head. It's so annoying. 

Let's hope that all the starts on Cup Day are fair my old mate. 

All the best.

Seemed good at the start. Copy That the huge advantage of Not getting the 10m handicap for last years win , strolls to the lead instead. 

Your Pick the Majestic Cruiser did quite well. Krug did him and Akuta no favours by going up to soon and fading a 1/4 mile out getting in the road a bit. 

Jolly nice horses in that race though , and a great sight !!! well done Nz Harness !!!

He was given the race, again. WTF

Majestic Cruiser certainly to beaten, dragged back through the field by the rogue Southcost Arden. That horse did not deserve a start in the Cup, form so poor. I knew the horse would ruin the race somehow and he did costing Majestic cruiser a certain win. 

Natalie Rasmussen proves to be still #1. Perfect driving all day from her. I backed Spankem as a backup F3 at $3.20 so came out just a few dollars down. If the cruiser had nit been checked I get plenty.

Take it on the chin...
