If you had the average knowledge of economics that the average Green Party voter has, then, such gains would be taxable. That is because the Greens have no idea of the bigger picture. The losses would be tax deductible. And the losses are huge!

In 1953, 5th September to be exact, the first two year old race of the year was the Avondale Stakes. They had so many entries it had to be run in two divisions. The first division was won by a daughter of Count Rendered, from his first crop. He generally sired staying type horses. The Wellesley Stakes at Trentham in October, the Welcome Stakes at Riccarton and Ellerslie in November all got decent entries. It would seem that our winters are getting later. 5/9/53. Six weeks after I started school. About the time I started taking a keen interest in racing.

Apparently yesterday's Sydney Morning Herald had a bit about his enemies. If anybody can link to that please do so. It could be fascinating reading.

I see where Matauri Bay finished second in the Solario Stakes at Sandown. It was bred by Normandie, France breeders. Interestingly, older New Zealanders will know that the Rainbow Warrior, wrecked by French terrorists in 1985, was scuttled at Matauri Bay.

Magical Zoe was set for the Ebor Handicap after running fourth in the County Hurdle at Cheltenham. She went on to win the Ebor as favourite and now they are aiming at the Melbourne Cup. If she can run well in the Melbourne Cup NZ Thoroughbred Racing leaders can say, with all the knowledge they possess, that we do not needs jumps racing. The administration of racing in our country is a huge worry. My vocabulary is so limited that I cannot describe their expertise without using lurid, profane and obscene language.

Stodge said, after the race, that York is a front runners track if you can get the fractions right. I think that Juddmonte may have been one of Ryan Moore's best rides. He judged that race perfectly in track record time. But then, it might be my pocket that is talking. Ohokaman's judgement about Calandagan was very good. It is surprising that a man who can write so much gibberish about Donald Trump on the Main Street Cafe forum, can show exquisite judgement on this particular forum.

I have put the kybosh on Economics with a mere snifter at even money.

I have seen the figures for the season just ended. 1. O'Reilly. 2. Pins. 3. Savabeel. The team at Waikato Stud ought to be very proud of that effort. I wonder if any stud anywhere in the world could match that.

Kamala is so devious that she dropped the last three letters "ous" from her second Christian name.
-
I am having a little old ladies small bet on the King George. Middle Earth each way. Why/ Its sire died at Cambridge Stud, one of the closest studs to Hobbiton.

Is it true that the Aratere's navigator was in charge of security at Butler, Pennsylvania? Would he have had to fly via Chicago to get there? -
Trump , guilty or not , vote please.

I hope this is not off topic by too far BUT; Yesterday morning at about 10.30 I was looking at the presidential race odds on Betfair. Suddenly the market went mad. The Donald who had been at $1.67 went to $1.72 then down to $1.48 then up to $1.56. Sleepy Joe's and Kamala's odds were also all over the place. It was surreal. Then "her indoors" called from upstairs; "Trump has been shot at" I doubt whether I will ever see another Betfair market in so much turmoil over such a short period. -
I note that 1st September is a Sunday in 2030.
-
Stodge, your opinion please. City Of Troy did not look like a wonderful champion to me. I expected him to romp away, but not so.
-
Chevy86, Your comment got an uptick, but that was inadequate acknowledgment of the quality of your comment. Poor old Ohokaman. His ilk just cannot comprehend that the main stream media have lost all credibility. Maybe Ohokaman is like an old card reading computer; one must punch information into him.

I see he died, aged 30, over the weekend. What were the good horses he sired in New Zealand. Some of his stock were cryptically named. I remember Carabas, who was named after The Marquis of Carabas in that childrens' book "Puss In Boots". And I had a few dollars on Swing The Cat when she won at Ellerslie.
-
I thought Voyage's run at Epsom would have been a precursor to better things. I noticed that he kept a straight line without a jockey to guide him. So I backed him. Motherless far kin LAST!!! I liked Haatem's run at the Curragh, He got me out.
-
I see where Charlie Johnston's Struth is rated in the 2.25 at Haydock (being 1.25 our time) tonight. You Poms know how to name a horse sired by Australia. Struth, mate!!!
-
Stodge; your opinion on this matter would be interesting. The St James's Palace Stakes seems to be, nowadays, a more important race than the time honoured 2000 Guineas.
-
That City Of Troy is much much better than I thought. Very good. Voyage had a lovely track gallop on the course proper with no weight on his back. There is a Group 3 10 furlong race at ascot. Waipiro won it last year. I will go Voyage this year.
-
If I can get $10 the place on the unbeaten Voyage in The Derby I will have a bet. Out of a Galileo mare, that was a good win at his only start.
-
The gentleman from Invercargill has a point. Have a look at the crowds at Wingatui on Melbourne Cup day, Invercargill just prior to Christmas and Riverton on Easter Saturday. Then have a look at the crowds on course at Cambridge gallops, then condescendingly refer to the Southland president as "having a crack". That is sick.

One bad bit about getting to 76 years is that one must get up at some silly hour of the morning to have a leak. That's the bad news. The good news is that I got to see Rosallion & co go in the Irish 2000 Guineas. That St James Palace Stakes will be the race of June. My bladder will ensure I watch it. I might have 20/80 on Haatem. He might win, but I think he is a very good thing for a place. This morning I saw Blue Rose Cen go at Longchamps. She is nothing like the filly I saw at Chantilly 11 months ago. Such a pity.
-
"Sweet But Psycho" I know several women who will have a lazy ten each way on a filly with that name. If all of Leo's former wives back it, it will start odds on.

Our TAB has framed a market for the Dante at 125.6%. It would appear that an English firm has taken over our TAB. Bad Economics, but I will go for him.
