  1. Longevity yes but Reon Murtha didn't travel much unlike what McNamara has done. Lochie Marshall always did Timaru, Oamaru, Geraldine etc and Eric Percy and Ian Chambers did the Coast circuit and Nelson / Marlborough. Murtha shared the job with plenty. McNamara is in a class of his own IMO.
  2. Highly Likely an obvious late scratching with the flag start but the second fav Gagarin missed it by many lengths also. Its jockey Shaun Fannin was watching the antics of HL and missed the flag. Not sure its followers were done any favours there
  3. Don't forget the Claudelands Classic Terry Yule
  4. Tool no. 1

    OP

    I have no sympathy. Bloody unprofessional and a poor look for the industry. Not to mention a real kick in the guts for those that took him in the jockeys challenge.
  5. good effort that considering 7 pointer in the first.
  6. Written By Ef Troop Seabrook Spin Thanks for comp
  7. Neverstopdreaming Avecmoi Bluebreeze Ja Ja Binks Richie McHorse Coldplay Endean Express Thanks for the opportunity
  8. A huge call by George Simon who confidently went the inside horse didn't even say it was close. So unlike him as he is usually very ordinary these days in a tight finish.
  9. In his two Nz Cup wins definitely but in his three starts before the cup last year he ran down Have Faith in Me at Addington Titan Banner in the Kaikoura Cup and Dream About Me in the Ashburton Flying Stakes. Your original comment is just wrong.
  10. I can remember at least a dozen occasions and I'm sure there would be many others. The 2015 NRM Sires Stakes when he ran down Chase The Dream at Addington would be one of my favourites.
  11. Her drive from 10th November. Read the date of the quote.
  12. The Lowe drive was so so so much worse. Chalk and cheese different. In fact her drive was very similar to how one of the best of all time drove Lazarus in the Freemantle Cup. Not really defending her as she is pretty ordinary but A.Lowe is nek level ordinary.
  13. The issue was the moron that was on the bell. They have confused half the drivers in the race. Sure the driver needs to be a bit more onto it but this one was not entirely her fault.
  14. I said firm tracks. Yes you are right he did win on good tracks in Australia. I should have said jarred up on firm tracks and that was certainly the case when Our Flight ran away from him in the Classic. From memory the only time he was ever beaten on a heavy track was by the great Strawberry Road.
  15. This also highlights just how great a race the Levin Turf Classic as it was originally called used to be, held on a country track with a very good supporting card. I remember winning a competition on 2ZB back in 1981. The prize included a return train trip from Wellington to Levin, entry to a champagne brunch held on the course before the first race, lunch vouchers and a $25 betting voucher which was not to be sneezed at back then. A huge crowd and a great Classic with Our Flight beating the hot pot Red Tempo who couldn't go on firm tracks.
