LETS CLEAR A FEW THINGS UP. IT WAS $8 INVESTED IN A % QUADDIE.......... 1ST LEG WINS......... DOES IT MATTER HOW MANY HORSES I HAD ? I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THOSE THAT DIDN'T HAVE THE WINNER LOOSE THEIR MONEY AND THOSE THAT DID AT LEAST GOT THEIRS BACK. I HAVE RAISED THIS BEFORE BUT STILL DON'T FOLLOW WHY I SIMPLY DON'T GET MY MONEY BACK.

YOU TAKE A $8 % QUADDIE AT AWAPUNI ........ 1ST LEG GETS IN ........ RACE MEET ABANDONDED..........WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT BACK ? try $1.90........... WTF

SURELY ITS GOT TO BE PLAN B The met have been forecasting a weather bomb since Wednesday.

A well presented show , it's a pity Mick has this condescending style. At times I feel like I am sitting in on a presentation to 6 year old's on the theory of relativity or quantum mechanics.

I continue to have concerns about trotting north of Rangiora. As a longtime fan dating back to the late 60's I find I just get excited about small fields and the difficulty in making a few dollars. The meeting last night was a classic , I looked at the races and thought how the hell can you make money out of this lot , so I took a particular interest in the Boxseat analysis of 7 of the 10 races by Thompson m Guerin and O'Connor. Awarding points for the number of 1st's , 2nd's and 3rd's the first surprise was the winner ( Greg O'Connor ) , next was the fact that of the 7 races where each selector made four picks ONLY G.O'Connor had more than 1 first pick win. They all had the $1.80 shot Invisible. Thompson and Guerin had the destinction of picking 4 horses in a race without the winner. I didn't have a single bet and watched the Cup without feeling anymore exited than a maiden race at Rotorua.

Well you wouldn't think it was that difficult would you........... Present race details , dividends , presenter selections , race runs , result 1,2,3,4 ,dividends, comments BUT NOOOOoooo Presenter selections missing one or both , race results incomplete but cross to next race , sometimes result is confirmed but regularly not. One of the most popular bets is the quaddie but 3 months or more and we still have to look the result up ......... primative. Finally, where do they find all these experts are their results monitored with KPI's , it's amazing how they front up as large as life every race every meeting with results no more successful that a 5 year old and a dart board. Cheers and look after you hard earned.

Well done !! I have to admit it came up earlier than I expected and wow 5 at the same meeting. I seem to recall one of the exceptional drivers of yesteryear circa 1972 doing the same but I cant recall his name although it wasn't Maurice Holmes. Shame on TRACKSIDE for cutting across to BALINA for a $17k race whilst you came back to scale.

COULD THE QUADDIE RESULTS BE POSTED , ITS BEEN MONTHS. NO TROUBLE PRESENTING ADVERTISMENTS.

YOU WANT A RESULT ....................

NOT SUSPENDED , NOT RIDING , .......................

The AA is offering a dozen cans for every time Leith tips one of his jockeys winners ( Warren Kennedy ) and the TAB offers the same to Leith. Most of the presenters represent a jockey or two but fail to pick winners.

I'm sensitized to the whole false start decision............. ever since the National Mile at Alex Park circa 1973. I had a tip for a horse called ROBALAN who was paying about 8's from memory. Mobile dispatches with ROBALAN in a break........... same rules didn't break any gear !!! O'h shit it doesn't wear any it's free legged. Did my dough again. Horse won it's next 9 I think

SOOOO BLOODY CLEVER WE CANT GET A QUADDIE DIVIDEND ON SCREEN. NOR CAN THE PRESENTERS VERBALISE IT ............. ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR BETS
