Bit Of A Yarn

Com'on guys lets fire up a bit for the big week . 🏆

How about a tipping comp ? I'm quite happy to run results after each race Cup day and Show day.

How do you think we should do it ?  Maybe 2 Picks each per race?.... across the whole card with $10 ew on each one ? seems pretty easy.

Most earnings at the end of the 2 days wins the prize.!!!!!!!!!!🏆💰

( I have a lot of harness horse magazines I could post to the lucky winner, might even be bonus silverfish in them lol) 

Anyone Interested in a BOAY tipping Comp for the 2 days ?? .....you out there Mr galah, Blackie, hunter, Ranga, anyone ?........

Let us know here so we can see if any interest thanks

I cannot as I will be betting into everything on cup day and I cannot cost myself money.magazines I got that sent from NZ all the time and that got canned just about when they destroyed everything by changing the class system to ratings and the ship got a leak and started to sink.i enjoyed getting that.

Forbury, I think we will be playing with pretend money so no damage done. Count me in Gamma. Hope Marky Boy on his best behaviour, although D Butcher showed him what a real driver looks like at Kaikoura. 😎

The Big Day is close ! The Nz Cup is on the line Tuesday and Chief Stipe has kindly pinned an ENTRY thread to try and pick the card . (2 picks each per race). the true kiwi 'Stayers ' will be backing up on Show Day to see the trotters go the distance too.

Free entry ! all for a bit of fun . couple of good sports in already (don't forget yours Chief) 

Meanwhile here's an old boy who is a Nz Cup hero . Bet nobody can pick this one lol?

Look, if Final Decision had of only missed away by only 80 metres, he would of been on the cover. 

Loving the Bryant sulky and the leather gear.

Don't forget to put some picks (2 per race) on the ENTRY THREAD Nz Cup for Tuesday mate . (you just won a $10 credit to your total for identifying the horse ....

Yes Blossom Lady up with the best aged mares ever.

I remember the great days of harness racing when there were thousands on track on a Saturday night at Addington.

People enjoyed the competitive nature of the racing with no stables dominating the card!

Owners and trainers had a chance of making racing pay!

Cup Day is now about how much the Club can take off people from their grossly overpriced packages!

Yes of course they need it to keep racing viable.
