Horrific fallers at Tauranga Race 2

Recommended Posts

I took it to win in trifectas and miss out on a collect.... but have no problem with what the TAB have done. I think they should be congratulated in fact.

Precedent is one thing - but it is discretionary on their behalf and I give them a pat on the back (tough luck offshore wise though Barry).

 also wouldn't be annoyed in the future if they didn't do it  - bit like the Bosson thing for me - fact they did something generous in the past doesnt mean they have to all the time in the future...

Good luck - I think if you are successful you could shout me a beer when I visit a racecourse near you B):lol:

At least Lewis Road wasn't in front of the crowd

Horses and riders cartwheeling in front of the grandstand isn't a pretty sight, those jumps riders are made of steel though & they deserve all the plaudits they get.

Small consolation Bazza,anything that ends in death is ratshit wether it’s at the 100 or halfway down the back.

Well Lewis Road was in front of a crowd....you weren't there obviously ...

does your crowd have to be 300+ bazza (go Tauranga)

I don't think you have an ounce of sympathy for Lewis Road or Guess Who in your blood.

What the fark are you on Gooseman.

Firstly, Lewis Road happened at the 600 mark, last time I was at that bird shit ridden dive there was no grandstand at that position, no other runners fell because of Lewis Road either.. They are entirely different situations as well & for your uneducated information I used the word “horrific” in the thread title which even for a basic person like yourself would indicate I had big concerns for Rider and Horse.
