    Meant to say Ivan Lord was the track manager and his father and two sons knew how to look after the track.

    I worked on the part time track staff at Awapuni in 1970s. Race day we checked all the turns and the landing points for the jumps and came back on Sunday and four of us went round the track twice looking for divots and filling them. Cunning buggers used to pay us on Saturday morning and usually on Sunday went to work we had spent all our wages the day before
  3. I have followed this site since it started and watch it deteriorate from an interesting and generally humourous place to seeing a litany of rubbish spewing out from many mouths who think they are tough NZ males. I don’t agree much with pound for pound but at least he fronts up. For 60 years I have watched the industry slowly decline to the sick state it is in now. If it was not for lady jockeys and Asian apprentices there would be one meeting a week. Continually criticising Labour at present does not explain the decline over the last 50 years when National was in power for the majority of those years. I get that many of you don’t like Labour but some of the vile comments are disgusting. What some of you would call vigorous debate is crap coming from anonymous key board warriors who talk tough without any accountability. Like so many in my age group you continue to ignore science, deny climate change, complain about attempts to mitigate racial and economic inequality etc etc. Face facts : You are not as important as you think and your power is continuing to diminish as evidenced by the last election. In signing off I recognise that I written this anonymously too but I can’t be bothered with the inevitable backlash.
  4. Mike that does not like a site you could trust
  5. Thank you Ohakaman finally got it going. Certainly not intuitive is it.
  6. Thanks for reply Ohakaman but I still have no luck. What window is the form with a v under it. I can get extended form page but will still only give me horses and nothing else. I don’t think I am thick but am about to give up.
  7. Long time follower and small time bettor with my first post . I have managed to get to my favourites and tried to folloow P4Ps advice but cannot seem to add a trainer or jockey. It will add a horse but that’s all. Can anyone one help?
