Paradise Lost 9 Report post Posted December 8, 2017 Yep, but we don't own any TAB Hesi says, must have run into you Steve, as we lived on Vera Rd for a while and that was the local TAB He might have to go back there, as they have shut the Westgate TAB, and the traffic on Lincoln Road trying to get to the Lincoln TAB is horrific.

Steve Paul 668 Report post Posted December 8, 2017 Thought so, I should probably have been more forthcoming, but one is never sure! Sorry to see you go, seems an odd time to leave, especially now when the roadworks are complete and the shop is so much more accessable?

Bloody heck, Hesi says all the best tippers are coming from a very small hotspot in that hotbed of boganism, West Auckland, Gordy, Steve P and to a lesser extent Hesi, although he was man of the match in the Grand Final when it really mattered Gordy55 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted December 8, 2017 Roll on Trentham! 38 (and a half) entries in so far. Below are the picks for Race 1. Gift Of Power the most popular selection on the entire card - picked by 32 entrants (84%). Only two best bets in the first. Interestingly in a 5 horse field, not a single person has picked #3 - where is Mr Gee? Pete vs Sharne in the shield challenge - both have 1-2 in the first race. Steve P (66) 1-2 Sharne (31) 1-2 Richie (31) 2-4 Tony (26) 1-2 Pete (25) 1-2 Betty (25) 2-4 Skelly (23) 1-2 Hesi (20) 1-5 Roland (18) 1-5 TC (17) 2-5 Casper (17) 1-2 Korio (16) 1-4 Sir G (16) - Rees (16) 1-2 Howie (15) 2-4 PJ (15) 2-5 Catalano (15) 1-2 Jack (12) 1-2 Rob (12) 2-5 Robert (11) 2-5 Porky (11) 2-4 Steve (10) 4-5* Maureen (10) 2-5 Maria (10) 1-2 Dave (8) 1-2 Rosina (8) 2-5 Punter P (8) - John (7) 1-2 Gruff (4) 2-4 Graeme (2) 2-5 Rex Zim 1-2 Jen 2-4 Ian 1-2 Gordy 2-5 Jill 4-5* Cubes 2-4 Al 1-2 Ray 1-2 Brian 4-5 Maurice 2-4 Kundalini 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted December 9, 2017 Eight on the winner, four of them with the quinella including a nice best bet quinella for (Red) Gordy who takes the lead for this round. Sharne with the quinella to leave Pete a big mountain to climb to defend the Shield. Normal service resumed with Steve P also on the winner. 75% of entrants on Savvy Coup in the next.

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted December 9, 2017 5 on the winner (including leader Gordy), three of them with the quinella. Richie and Sharne who were second equal on the points table after day 5 are looking to make up some ground on Steve P who sits just out of today's points at this stage. 63% of entrants on William Wallace in the next.

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted December 9, 2017 27 on the "low black cheating b--tard" (as the opinionated one on the other forum refers to him). Ray retakes the daily lead from Gordy with one race to go. Looks like the shield is heading south, returning the Blues trophy cabinet to its usual empty state 48% of entrants on Seraphim in the last.

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted December 9, 2017 Jill comes with a late burst - with a very nice best bet quinella in the last (courtesy of a scratching and a sub on the winner). Ray and Gordy round out the top 3. Note, totals in brackets besides names are points going in to today - they don't include points earned today. Sharne takes the shield and will defend it against Jill at Ellerslie during the week. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
