yes Blair all class again - Oscar you beauty
Harry Brave
Ben Hope(less) - did you really think you could park Just Believe and beat him - crazy stuff - swap drivers and give Ricky a go

great chance for a Quinella in the next. The 3 Cullen Fillies all with a chance . Along the marker line handy they will be too. 
I'm putting 10 bucks on each of the 3 lol. 🤣. bring one home Hayden !! lol🍻

well done Blair Orange 🏆. Great timed drive once again this week. . to mow down the good double Interdominion Champ like that was spot on driving.  Oscar paid 12 bucks on Sportsbet.
Hard to believe Blair without a drive in the Next race ?  they all miss out on a great chance in the Group 1. 
Wish he (BlairO)   held on in the NZ Cup , but he did head Swayzee off after a great drive to have his chance I spose,  and had his chance to win. (with DSD) 
 

Thanks mate. I didn't watch Ashburton and only had one bet Bonnie's Girl, third at good money for lovely Olivia.
Yes, Regan Todd has upped his game and now among the elite trainers. I think Hayden Cullen the same. It's good to see some younger trainers putting pressure on the established Canterbury G1 stables, Purdon, Dalgety, Mark Jones etc.... Good stuff. 

How good is that guy ? MarketPlace going like a champion, Mo'Unga Kaikoura Cup , and ''Borris' is airborne  lately . (got a bit off him Tuesday but not today alas)
ANyway , Mr Janitor , yesterday Regan Todd had Buddha in race 10 at Ashburton , and it zoomed home from the back of field in home straight making up 8 lengths in a 55 second half mile it must of been. 
BUDDHA will win some (in a row ) very shortly . watch out for him too. He's another beauty. 

Both were huge alright . Steven's horses are really firing at the moment . Just the manners hopefully they will improve 

So unlucky PS I thought Miki Bennett was home too until that happened 😪 The Telfers won't be happy because Melody Banner , when looking for room hit a wheel and galloped too . Arcee Phoenix they mentioned and also One Over Al apparently it went well last start too . I think I will take a first 4 with the Aussie runners and a few others . Muscle Mountain , not that confident with him unless he gets across Just Believe but he may be short of a run too . Will be a great race all the same 

I thought the Regan Todd horse Borrisokane was massive. He did a power of work and still trucking at the finish. Looks like a horse with a future, if not sold. 

same in the previous race with another Steven Reid horse . SHAKE A LEG who plays up terribly in the score up . He did so  on Tuesday as well.
Somehow today it still got 3rd ? after being 50m behind them just after the start (on Blair Orange too ) .  How it got 3rd was a miracle. 

Race 5 - Wow what an exciting race - 1st, 2nd and Magician huge - Telfers horse got around but must have been 100m last in the end

I just got home and watched the first 4 races replays just now.
Holy Cow ! . that George Elliot was roaring home , head down , really having a Dig up the home straight. 
All you needed was another 10m and you had that. Great pick !
Mine , well I had 50 on Miki Bennett with JD driving in the 4th. Got all excited when it swept to the lead 100m out but it galloped AGAIN 🙄. just like Tuesday.  rotten thing. 
should of just stuck with my best bet on Tuesday of 'Borris' . would of backed him if Miki Bennett had of won just now too , so that's doubley rotten .lol. Time for a beer (or 6)  to re-organise lol. 
Arcee Phoenix a place maybe. he went pretty good in the Dominion .

Massive run by Bazooka.
But ya don't go away ok ya pay the price !

Paid a lot less on the Tote.

I see what was meant by a poster about the Telfer gallopers. Not good.

George Elliott what a good thing beaten . Put $10 over $30 fixed odds as well so got $99 . Should have got another $100 nevermind thats the way it goes 

I haven't been following the harness racing anywhere near so well as other posters here, but I've studied up today on each runner's recent starts and have come up with these as good value at a price.

Nice post , Some winners and some good humour 😆

My take on Show Day
Firstly drivers are so important and they can be divided into 3 groups
Class - Blair, Dexter, Carter, Tim, Jason G, Greg S - they all sit quietly in the cart, have respect, have done their form, have multiple plans and know when their horse is doing it's best without thrashing it.
Average - many
Flappers - Ben H, Sam T, John D, Mathew Will - they all look like the have a bad case of the piles with arms flailing around, wriggling around in the seat from the start of the race to the finish. They are often overdriving their horses throughout the race and yet they do win some races. I also acknowledge that John D has had an excellent season.
Another factor that I see being important here is Cup Day performances - especially the under performers most notably the Purdon/Phelan team. 
So into my selections
Race 1 - Tu Tangata should win by 6 lengths but not @ that price with Paul N driving. Yes Paul could try his hardest and yet Tu Tangata might still be too good. Prefer to look at a roughie like George Eliot 
Race 2 - have a beer
Race 3 - Habibti Pat - Blair factor versus Purdon under performing and the horse has to be handled with kid gloves anyway
Race 4 - Time for a pie - probably carnage in this race with 3 Telfer runners in it
Race 5 - Not for me - look at the body painting - or was that on cup day?
Race 6 - Champion 1st Arcee Phoenix roughie for a place. I thought that with Mark P driving Oscar on Cup Day and Mystic M not starting today, That Greg Hope might have grabbed Blair to drive MM. I would love to see Blair driving him because of Blair's respect factor.
Race 7 - Fire a dart at the field happy to lay the Purdon fav
Race 8 - More cash for the Aussies ( I hope) and my TAB balance with all my Cup Day multi's finishing on her
Race 9 - Awful race to select one with the positioning after they settle deciding the outcome - happy for Lakelsa to place
Race 10 Sooner take $2.50 on Chase a Dream than $2.50 on He's from Heaven. Blair will sum up the race in the important first 200 
Race 11 - Lay Gold Bullion here - manners are terrible. Divvy gone for Nazareth and remember he made a super beginning on cup day from the unruly to land the 1-1 until it turned to custard at the 400
Race 12 - Lay Merlin - Swayzee settled 20 lengths off him after the start - looped the field and caned him. Easy to say the 3200 found him out, but the reality both him and DSD are as yet unproven in open class. Having said that it is hard to find a good value bet in the race. I would have to go with The Falcon only because Jason Grimson is a god and he has had a couple more days with him.
Race 13 - Too tough - go home and beat the traffic   

Race 1     George Elliott for me has been unlucky recently 
Race 10  You all know who I have backed . Better Knuckle for me . Start is so important . If Coastal Babe holds the front Chase a Dream will trail and BNU could switch to 3 back on the fence . But if Coastal gives the lead away then BNU is in trouble so fingers crossed but has the right man on for me 
Race 12 Republican Party . He finally has a draw and has gate speed so should lead or trail . If he hands up to The Falcon I doubt he will give the lead away so RP will get the perfect trip 
I had a good place punt on Wallflower yesterday and got the trifecta . Also backed Jordan Childs for a place in the jockey challenge yesterday so have some cash to play with today 😀
 

Blair Orange drove well Cup day with wins in the Group races with The Big Lebowski and Treacherous Baby,
and very narrow defeats with Don't Stop Dreaming in the Cup and Rubira in the Sires Stakes features. They were both in front 100m out but just rolled late by handy horses Swayzee and Marketplace. Blair did 4 Perfect drives to be fair. couldn't fault any of them. 
Only missing with Mystic Max in the Dominion in the group races , (but did sail to victory with Max at Kaikoura without a 'Just Believe' to deal with )  
TODAY , there are 7 Group Races . How many can Blair take out ? 
race 3/ 2 year old trot Championship  HABIBTI PAT at  $3. a big chance with great form for the Hope team. drawn very wide though
race 6/ the NZ Trotting FFA    OSCAR B at $12  .probably 3rd to Just Believe again like he was Tuesday? drawn very wide.
race 7/ Sires Stakes Final for 2 yearold Fillies Blair has NO DRIVE , they're mad the Buggers. He could of won on a number of these.
race 8/ The ASCENT slot trot LOOK TO DE STARS at $50.  will be chasing Keayang Zahara like all the others in this. drawn 2nd row.
race 9/  Southern Mares Classic MR KAPLAN at $8 . seems a solid show but drawn wide. will take a Blair Special.
race 10/ The VELOCITY Slot pace for 3 year olds. CHASE A DREAM at $2.30 . Big chance here in the $1/2 mill  race. 2nd row draw though.
race 12/ The NZ FFA THE BIG LEBOWSKI at $14 . drawn wide too, but won Cup day well. will need another Blair Special. 
So ALL 6 of Blair Oranges drives in the features have drawn Awkwardly . so you are getting quite good odds .
He'll have to be driving at his Very Best to get any of these home today .  best of luck to him against the 8 Aussies running today. A Fabulous days racing.
.

Was gunna say , Get on the Stable-mate of that one .
Olivia will be Coming out of the gate from the 1 Alley, with All she's got to keep the lead in that ,   RACE 7. It's a Group 1 worth 200k , so they won't muck around , 
and she'll give a perfect Sit to the Cullen stable-mate (same owner too)  GENERAL JEN , drawn directly behind her.
General Jen will come through the inside up the home straight and take the Victory at  9-1 . Get in the queue !!! (either to collect or for next bet if plan doesn't work lol 🤣)
