d.burrow - Joan

School Teacher  Miss Jools,
I do hope that you will enter the next competition on here, so that instead of you taking the strap to me, I can tan your little hide.  LOL

Pip is probably a lovely lady.
What I don't understand is the idiots who put her in that invidious position!
KEGS Stephen Hunt wouldn't be any better, not that I am criticizing him on his ability as a form annalist.
P.S. I'd love to go head to head with either of them [Pip or Stephen or his mates] in a picking contest but like everyone else I've challenged in the public arena, [Des Coppins etc] no one has taken up the challenge.  

Everyone running RACING in this country whether it be NZTR, or the TAB are sadly lacking in nous.
[I know that some of you would describe them as f....whits,  but trying to be nice, they just don't have what it takes]

“Good shopping” “Shopping at”. Is this the latest catch phrase?… can’t get through a cross over to Pip without one or the other.. driving me batty.. we’ll battier!  Lol
 

The whole thing is cringe worthy , they just come across as wanna be's .
Shut up , i can read the odds for myself .

I've never seen a horse out shopping yet.........it's both cringe worthy and barf worthy. Once in awhile maybe, but she is completely OTT that for the second week in a row I've had to turn her off. Not muted. TV turned off.  

I've never seen a horse "friendless" either but they seem to often trot that one out a lot too

Week 8 selections
Will be a bit of movement in Hastings Race 2, and then most of the action will unfold in the final races in Australia.
 

After Hastings Race 2:
Sighted who started the day in 2nd place loses 50 points to drop to 258 points, with a Joker play still to come on a $3 favourite.
Winner69 who started the day in 3rd place earned 53 points from the beaten favourite but lost 50 points on the winner, so they put their cue in the rack and finish on 281 points.
The big mover was Joan (D Burrow) with 105 points from a Joker play on the beaten favourite to take her to 318 points, with Aromatic still to come at Te Rapa.
Kilcoyne continues to lead with 353 points.

Interim update - totals after Te Rapa R5

 
Rev, Maria and Gubellini eliminated.

Interim update - after Katsu eliminated Sayer.
Still to come - two runners for Kilcoyne, and best bets for Old Man and Sighted.
 

Hastings Race 2  There Goes My Hero  Joker
Te Rapa Race 7  Aromatic 
Firstly thank your Kilcoyne for displaying your picks. [That sets the goal posts]
The only way I can win is for the first three leaders to all pick a winner and both of mine get beat. 

So guess what, I laid it in the competition because it's not good enough at the moment, notwithstanding KANTGETABETON trying to tell us that it was pulled up or not let run on it's merits of late.
Glad to see Nomates was keeping a sharp eye on what was going on. LOL

Pukekohe R 1 - Arjay's Flight [Joker]
Pukekohe R 2 - Mercurial  [Joker]
N.B. I am using my two Jokers to try and get to the top of the ladder today.
If I can only use one, please use the first one [Arjay's Flight] and I will use the second one next week. [That's confidence isn't it LOL]
 

Agreed Old Man. Fingers crossed for Quasimoto and Areyouokay....

Week 6 results
Bit of a shake-up to the leaderboard this week.  Last week's leader with a winning Joker play on the very impressive Giga Kick, and two of the top 4 eliminated, leaving Kilcoyne with a handy 80 point lead with two weeks to go.  15 remaining in the comp.
 

Gee that  Giga gave a few of us a mighty Kick !!
 
Super horse, great Rider and what a great young trainer !
