Hi admin, can my posts (11) on this subject please be taken down.

Yes, I too had my own protest and felt stuff them, didn't have a bet and probably won't this week either. Apart from the pick and place 6 options, I liked to have the each way bets too. I really believe in our great thoroughbred racing industry and want to support it via the NZ Tab, unfortunately, as you say, another cock up.

Valued? I don't think so! I have been a fan of pick 6 for a long time, and in more recent years the place 6, so am really disappointed and brassed off. After 40 years as an account holder, I will unfortunately be looking at other options than NZ Tab.

Davey Mac quite remarkable really. Was able to call in all three codes. I recall a distinct line of Dave's 'Just a walk in the park'.

Extra Flash at long odds 60's beat Sly Wink and Heidelberg, ridden by Stephen Autridge carrying 47kg. I think he was trained by Howie Matthews whom also trained Big Gamble, ran second in the Cup that day. However, Big Gamble won the cup in 79 ridden by 16 year old Toby Autridge carrying 51kg. I think Howie Mathews was private trainer for the Tappers?

Hi there, how embarrassing. Not too sure how that happened but that may have been my last stuff up for 2023. All the best to all for a prosperous new year. Cheers.

No doubt what so ever that Opie is a truly gifted and champion jockey. I have wondered if living in the heat climate of Australia may have helped with the weight issues. Opie has the pick of the TA rides for good reason, he is the best. Had Chris not had the eight years away he may not have achieved the numbers he has, it can be a tough game. He has been off with injury for a year now, but is keen to come back. Some folks may need to realize that Chris cant keep riding forever as he will be 60 in April. Apparently when he retires it will be on his terms and when he is ready.

A very talented horseman, trained and drove 5 winners at Winton yesterday.

Welcome back Kelly, hope all goes well, all the best.

I would be surprised if they didn't keep Sam on (if available), perhaps a few unfortunate circumstances on Wednesday, like I say, a roomier track would be a huge plus.

Great to see Robert will be training in the South again. He was doing really well and I was a bit disappointed that he'd left to go North. Anyhow, onwards and upwards Robert, all the best.

Didn't look to be an easy ride for Sam, and the horse did draw wide. Ascot Park can be a tricky track for some and I would love to see her race on a more roomy track.

Luke and Emily co presenting, would be a huge move forward for the show and our industry.

Was great to see Luke on Weigh In again, really enjoyed his 60 second rants, cheers Luke, more of what our industry needs.
