  1. Lock up your daughters!!
  2. Obviously nowhere near long enough.
  3. She must have got the 1 and the 2 around the wrong way of the race distance. It was 2100 but she rode it like it was only 1200. It would have been a huge shockiff that was ever going to see the distance out!!
  4. I'd like to see Brittany used at the track more. And Greg for that matter. I guess that's the plan for the really big meetings, but Greg are Britt are the two bast on track, so to have them both in the studio is a waste of talent in my opinion.
  5. Agreed. She has both trained and driven harness horses herself as well, which puts her two steps ahead of most broadcasters before she even picks up the microphone. Harness racing was in her blood from the day she was born, and it shows. If we want the knowledge we'll have to get used to the accent Mind you, we got well used to her on the Aussie harness coverage, so it was great news when they announced she was coming over to grace our coverage.
  6. I'm sad to say l agree with you 100%. I'd love for us to be proven wrong in this instance, but I'm not going to hold my breath.
  7. That run-through almost looked pre-planned with the horse/driver immediately in front of MARKETPLACE based on the drone view of the start. Had the front row horse not immediately put peddle to the metal MP would have piled into the back of it based on how quickly he accelerated into the vacant slot. They say you make your on luck, but maybe sometimes you can arrange a little bit of luck too?
  8. Boy oh boy, you love to put the boot in don't you. What size are your feet? The ultimate winner originally was not eligible for the final, then all of a sudden, mysteriously, she was. It's definitely "a shambles", no argument is possible on a matter of fact, and while just how the race conditions for the final can be changed so late in the piece is an issue, sure, but the bigger question is how only a select few (One? Or two?) found out about the change in time to take advantage of it. I have my own theory on how this occurred (and who is responsible), but whether I've joined the correct set of dots or not will eventually be revealed. Or not. ATC happenings have a habit of not being revealed to members, let alone the general public.
  9. Trump (who said he'd NEVER back down) folded, China wins 1-0 (or by a full house against a bluff maybe?). TA doesn't even know the difference between new and knew, or how to punctuate, begin and end his sentences (l guess he's soooo excited ), so he doesn't even make the reserves bench.
  10. "......the cue is a long line....????" They's been playing some 8-ball? 2 balls in the corner pocket? Which ever way you interpret it, Trump thinks being a bullying dictator (he's certainly good at the "dick" part) is the new way of international political negotiation. Whilst some might fold and strike new deals, he's got no queue of friends on the international stage if he may need it later. It's really like Bullshit in a China Shop WHACK WHACK
  11. Wayyyyyy back in 2002 The Warriors won their first and only NRL Minor Premiership. That came as a result of the table-topping Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs being stripped of all of their competition points - just shy of the final round of normal play - after a massive salary cap breach was uncovered. The Warriors of 2025 find themselves sitting in second place again (albeit with plenty of games still to go) behind none other than the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. Both are surprises to be sitting where they currently are, as are most of the Top 8. They'll likely be plenty of movers, both up and down the ladder, in the weeks to come.
  12. 'Twas a good race. But yes, Susie looks stupendous. No excuses. KZ beaten fair and square. Maybe the new driver last two starts hasn't helped, but Susie won easily, fair AND square.
  13. You just can't bring yourself to give them even the tiniest little bit of credit, can you. It always all comes down to the ref, according to you, in that EVERY WEEK they're giving undeserving team undeserved victories. I call bullshit!!!
  14. Maybe they'll spray a few magnums of expensive French champers across the finishing straight turf before each race in future to allow the name to stay, instead of watering the track pre-meeting?
  15. It's also includes egg & spoon races, sack races, three-legged races and running races from kindergarten, primary school, high school and family picnics
