Guest Report post Posted February 17, 2018 Race 6 at Oamaru was approx. 7 minutes late starting!! The 6 horse Christian Lady, had the wrong saddlecloth no. showing of 9 instead of 6! Commentator thought it was just upside down rather than it being 9 although they could well be exactly the same but one goes up one way and the other the other way up!! Not sure whether they have the line underneath or not! However, why on earth did it take someone to have to bring a no. 6 from the Stable area around to where the mobile leaves, therefore holding the start up by so long? Surely it is possible just to turn the no. Up the other way?????? It would not have been that hard for the commentator and the viewers to be able to decipher Christian Lady as she is a massive mare and driven by Dexter Dunn! Was there any logic to this hold up????

Fair enough then, but did it really warrant the major holdup when everyone knew what was up? Often you see no.s flapping around not properly fixed anyway, especially on grass tracks!

I've just noticed that over the past few years this site seems to be less about horse racing and more about insulting members or skiting about how brilliant some of the newer members are at being able to win on their investments Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started a topic asking for people’s opinions in regards to the holdup of a race, and what I get is Kotare Hunter coming out with a comment that had no merit whatsoever! He is one of the several that continue to add very little to this site except sarcasm and abuse to many of the contributors. No there shouldn’t be insults at all, but to be fair Kilcoyne, you were no better with your childish quip! If you think that was beneficial to the discussion, then you also have not got much to offer as well!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Report post Posted February 20, 2018 I thought the no.s have a clip on the top and bottom of them? If so why could they just not turn it up the other way? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously Kotare, do you really think that all your stupid snide remarks are any benefit to Race Cafe? You continually want to have a go at “The Brodster”with pathetic attempts to either derail me or antagonise me. Yes I will admit that it is a real shame that you have such a low self esteem that you have to try and abuse someone as successful as The Brodster” Yes I know you will come back with another of your resentful quotes, but just give it a rest and contribute with something worthwhile. If you and your childish mates want to continue with your shite then I will leave you to it as I finished school many years ago!
