  1. Past hour
  2. Interesting time for these two in there stud careers. Both sitting very similar in achievements to date . (Although I think AH has had the better horse) - How do people think they are travelling? - is this autumn a make or break?

    Auckland must survive,then thrive forHarness Racing to have longevity -like any business recovery though, it’s not a flick of the switch. Start from the other end -perhaps the racing year 2028 - then join the dots as regards what are the steps/milestones required, to get this venue at where it it needs to be. Believe in Auckland as a harness venue, not now, more so in the racing seasons to come.
  5. Others on here will know Trevor far better, however a doff of the cap to a man who always took a punt. Alamosa arguably his best, however an owner in plenty of good winners - was the South Island’s largest investor at yearling sales for a number of years. A punter from day one. He took a massive hunch on VHS videotapes over Betamax in the really early days of digital. When the market in this sector was 50/50 re the technology path, he invested more than he had on VHS cassettes and connected his punt for the blank VHS tapes with a fledgling NZ retail format called The Warehouse. Ka-Ching moment! Raced many good ones over 30 years with Peter McKay.and other top trainers. His car number plate was 164 no - a top cricketer to boot! One of a kind - a top man.

  7. Admittedly not a completely scientific study, but have checked the late quaddies for the dogs for the dogs since the change and the pools of the quaddies are no bigger. In my case, my spend has gone done - I enjoyed the place 6 on the dogs as upsets can and do happen - so if I'd done my analysis for the place 6 I would often place a quaddie as well. Kind of ironic that the new bigger better in this case means less options!
  8. For those interested in EPIH, this article from Racing Vic is worth reading….( tap report )
  9. I found Ladbrokes (another Entain brand) used to be good at gifting bonus cash whenever you brought up a problem. Perhaps they have brought that mindset to the NZ TAB too. In similar news, I note another similar issue has popped up online... Those who bet on a red card happening in the crusaders game last weekend. A yellow was issued and it was later turned into a red upon review. The problem? The review happened the day after the game because the yellow was issued in the 80th minute so there wasnt time to review and upgrade to red during the match. Should the TAB honour red card bettors?
  10. Gleeson said regular rider Opie Bosson would have no trouble overcoming the barrier on the nine-time Group 1 winner. "We'd probably have liked it less had she drawn inside actually," Gleeson said
  11. One of the side effects of these conditions is that commercial breeder companies (including those sending mares to their own stallions) don't face the same problems. Eg Ultimate Racy Girl has earned over $7K for Alabar.
  12. The Property is absolutely stunning, it certainly isn't going to be sold cheaply.
  13. So "stand down" bleeding attacks have a nasal origin only -- not in any way pulmonary? And the stipes found this haemorrhage after scoping her after running a very fine second, not tailed off?
  14. Actually goes both ways ..... just saying ...
  15. Berri's hemorrage was internal, she wasn't classed as a bleeder, and wasn't stood down for 3 months.Apparently, it wasn't a serious hemorrage.
  16. No, that's not correct. Berri had an Exercise-undiced pulmonary hemorrage, it was an internal hemorrage and is different to a bleeding attack where there is bleeding in the nostrils.
  17. I thought I heard Imperatriz had a cardiac problem last start - is that correct?
  18. Well done Joolsy - that is the most cryptic answer ever nO? We all know that you do not have to work at the TAB.. to work FOR the TAB
  19. I'm picking the weird house plus the "impediment" rather than "asset" of harness facilities in a twilight industry, ruled by a few, will deflate the sale price. Time will tell but JMO.
  20. Yes we know, I posted this, earlier this afternoon.
  21. Craig Williams retains the ride on Mr Brightside in the Australian Cup.
  22. Silent Sedition won in 2017 from barrier 10 and Sunlight won from barrier 9 in 2019. imperatriz won last year from barrier 7
  23. Aha - in the small print in v3 of the conditions is the reason the principle breeder misses out. As the mare is a 5yo, it is likely that the breeding entity (the group of people listed) for Baltimore Jill hasn't bred anything within the last 5 years. Yes it does seem unfair that the very people that go to the effort to get additional people into owning and breeding Standardbreds are excluded from both schemes.
