Hahahahahahahahahahahaha ......Why me Scooby??? ....you said NOTHING to Ohokaman and Turny Tom who started this thread supporting Weiry .... but somehow I am the big bad Wolf for agreeing with them both! 😡....a little bit of favourtism me thinks here Scooby-Doo. I will let you run your race and get myself back to normality. PS.... jiggers just have a couple of little A4 batteries in them .....its more a tickle than a shock......If I hit you on the arse with it you would probably just laugh....and then the joke would be back on you haha 🤣🤣🤣. FF ...Just telling the truth.

It happens on all NZ races, you can hear it just watching Trackside, but seems far more pronounced when coming through car radio system.

How can you feel sorry for a bloke who used electricity on his horses..not just once but many times  for nothing more than greed...if you think that is ok then it is you who are the joke.

If you think its a joke then you laugh Scooby ....I prefer not to. FF....just telling the truth.

Friday @ Alexandra Park ⚓️ I've found a couple that i believe are bringing in solid form and they are well worth a dig individually and are also a great option to multi together! R2 Seaclusion  (Dylan might not be happy with me tipping his horse 😅😁) I've always had a soft spot for this horse and she ran a solid 2nd fresh up last week amongst the boys after working from the 2nd row and ending up 4 wide turning for home.  Draws better tonight, will only be fitter and the sprint trip suits!  I actually think she's overs. $4.80 and $2.00 R3 Irish Whispers  He brings solid form coming in to this race and was 2nd to Hail Lucius at Cambridge on The Race By Grins night. Keep in mind, he drew 7 and worked hard off the gate to sit wide the race. That night Hail Lucius couldn't have been more impressive winning in 2.37:3 and Irish Whispers was gaining on him hitting the line going down by a length to finish 2nd. If he produces something similar he wins! $3.50FW A $10 spend taking both to win could return  $168.00 Good luck! 🙂 🍻

Poor Wiery what a joke .... what about the poor bloody defenceless horses he terrorised...??????

Another 52 horses have been exported, from 25/March to 22/April, this included 3 racehorses returning to Australia and 21 horses going to China, including the stallion Johny Rock. I am not sure whether it was last month or the one before that had over 60 exported. At the same time as we have these high export figures, we have a 10% reduction in breeding numbers and now HRNZ/Entain also want to increase the number of race meetings by 20%, and who do they want to give these meeting to? well of course most of them are to the two clubs that already have the lowest field size in the country at 8.5, ATC & Manawatu!! ATC - 45 Meetings up 14        Manawatu - 19 Meetings  up 7 ATC  =            GBR as a %  T/O  17.8%          GBR as a % of Funding  57.7% Manawatu  =                               11.5%                                                    42.9% It is a recipe for losing more money than they already are, and with a number of Premier meetings coming up in Auckland their % figures will go down even more!  

CJC got rid of all jumps but National & only hanging by thread for the $$$. don't even waste my time going down any more as had done every year,  BEST part of the season for 50+ of my yrs but sad decline, sold off hill so no Great Northern etc karma seems to be visiting there lol, Dr McGregor Grant be mortified.  Shame they listen to not only the Peta nutters & cohorts but those on boards trying to shut jumps racing down.  Be at their peril as many I know have now turned backs on racing & spend $ elsewhere.  Don't think Troys that desperate to go back over sticks, not last I chatted with him  Shaun will pick his mounts, a few overseas jumps jocks may return, Emily may also, time will tell, without Myers, Ken Duncan & a few stalwarts few have jumpers any more & those in Sth Is who do want the odd one now have to send it north.  Long gone are the likes of the great Kumai. Grey Ways etc.  Can only hope the choice picnic meetings who DO get great public attendance do do same way some are trying to shut. sorry state of racing it's become 

Thursday @ Cambridge. Here are 4 I've been keeping my eye on and I think they are all winning chances tonight!. ⚓️ R3 Gladys Greenland  Fresh up tonight and has done the majority of her racing at Alexandra Park. Comes to Cambridge tonight for her resumption and has gate speed to burn which will make her tough to beat over the 1700m!  🔸️ $2.30FW ⚓️ Shez The One  Won her maiden 3 starts ago and backed that up with 2 tidy 3rds. One of those was against Leo Lincoln and she went 2:40.3 so she can get along nicely and has enough gate speed to be handy. Broke last start in traffic on The Race By Grins night here after drawing 10. Her last 3 races they have gone sub 2:41.4 so she has been having to fight! 🔸️ $6.00 and $2.30 ⚓️ R6 Sheza Mermaid  A maiden I've been following and alot of the time she has been unlucky or has done it tough but normally super consistent! She should go close in this feild tonight!  🔸️ $4.00 and $1.70 ⚓️ R9 Lincoln Cove Has the ability to be breaking maiden status but manners have been an issue! He gets his chance tonight in a small feild and if he behaves he can definitely take this out! 🔸️ $3.60 and $1.45 Although i think they are winning chances,  a nice multi option might be taking them all to run top 2. $10 to return $175.56 Good luck (:

Yeah Leggy ....4 years ....it was a bloody SHAM like the Trump case. Trump will get off for sure ....but poor Weiry had to cop 4 years out of the profession he loved and was very good at. All Trump did was pay off a 'hooker' and Biden wants him jailed ho ho ho ho .....what a farce .... an absolute disgrace. FF ....just telling the truth.

A fine? Wasn't he banned for 4 years for simply having the jiggers in his possession and will have to prove he is a fit and proper person in order to regain his licence. We should have that rule here like Racing Vic for cases such as the Pertab one.

A fine was plenty Scooby-Doo .....but hey ....each to their own so we can agree to disagree. I don't agree with 'cruelty to animals' either so please don't get me wrong.....but when owners are paying $5,000 + per month on training fee's and their horse isn't trying a 'buzz up' is worth a try as a last resort .....and if that doesn't work give the horse to a kid to ride. FF....just telling the truth.

Crook! Home detention... 🤬

Reading the last two or three items re some "bad"people in the greyhound world reminded me, curiouly enough,  of a comment a prison chaplain (now deceased) whispered to me one day: "You would be surprised how many lawyers there are in prison".  

Sorry but dont agree, you break the rules and treat horses so cruely and like pieces of meat you dont deserve to have a licence.

Sccoby-Doo .....all I'm saying is that they were 'common practice' years ago in the 70''s .....in fact jockeys used to carry those 'hand held' ones all the time and hit their mount on the neck with them turning for home and then throw them over the running rail on pulling up in the back straight. I remember on a country track in Perth (maybe Northam or York) the caretaker was mowing the grass down the back straight and he thought he had run over some land mines hahaha .....all the discarded jiggers got caught up in the mower blades and made a hell of a noise haha😂😂. Another time over there a jockey friend of mine told me to GET ON a horse he was riding as he was carrying a jigger and when he walked into his stall the starter said to him 'Excuse me Mr XXX ......could you please unload your horse'  and he thought... 'Oh No ....Iv'e been sprung' ......but he was in the wrong stall hahaha! .....so he re-loaded .....gave it a buzz turning in and won by 3 lengths.....corrupt? YES .....breaking the rules? YES ....but in Darren Weir's case the 'Buzz up' was purely to wake the odd 'non trier' up....and as you saw it made next to no difference at all.....so all that was needed was a fine. FF  .......just stating the facts.    

Wall to Wall f....n  Greyhounds. Please powers that be give them their own channel  and take " the ribbon of light " and " the chief" common potatoe to call them. Where's Lyin Cluxon he wanted them banned.  

I take it your streaming, if so does it happen when going to another race ?

When listening to Trackside in the car particularly if you have surround sound system, after a race they have this weird like thunder noise. I wondered what the f was wrong with my car before I realised what was happening, it still gives me a bit of a fright. Not sure why they do it lols

100% Paul will FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFix it....🤣🤣🤣....Does he still work there?
