  1. Ban the tape go to mobile full time after all its not a standing contest yes have your big races as stand but rest should be mobile
  2. Exactly eljay along with statistics ,and If we are that far ahead why hasn't it been felt in pockets of the owners and trainers who are always taking a bath .
  3. Harness leaders are followers not leaders they have forgotten how to lead.
  4. NW trots who missed Thursday could also miss again Tuesday if they go by the same ratings ie first Pref then Highest rating to lowest and that could also apply to the following Thursday now what are those owners going to do. At the moment and its been happening for a while we are getting good numbers for trotters so I say cater from them its a hard one I know particular this time of year but like always trots always get the blunt end of the stick. Just my observation but I could be wrong.
  5. Tuesday is a twilight meeting first race be about 4.30 but if 20 plus nominate for non winners trot will they put 2 races on bet they wont if you don't look after your grass roots things will full over and do they care probably not
  6. 20 for non win trot.... Auckland made 2 fields big tick for them why can't Cambridge do the same oo no trots get another unlucky door prize most who own these trots are small owner/trainers who are keeping the game alive to a small degree
  7. Tis, Auckland Trotting Club not Auckland Pacing Club or even Auckland Harness Club so why not support your name sake more... trotters even get the short end in jewels. The Non winners Trot Friday could have had a boys and girls race 9 in one 11 in other but Hangon Thrillsnpills that's logical thinking how dear you think like that we the ATC have to come up with that idea first ha ha sorry...
  8. Just the lost of prize-money. Have JCA gone soft 2Piper In the past first time offence's have been given between 3.5k and 5k fines so what's changed or is it about we cant disclose what some gets fined for privacy reasons.
  9. More Trotters than pacers for Friday.
  10. 2 piper Bute is a pain relief treatment generally given orally. It has a with-holding period of 42 days . Not sure the race with-holding period. I think you'll find it is 5 days ( report done in ozzie a number of years ago ) trainers will go 7 to be under 100 μg/ml. to be safe having said that FFEI now puts it at 13 days I think So what's the fine 5K ?
  11. The trouble is we seem to take a age to get a verdict long after the offence has been committed . As for beating up females in time not so long ago they would be taken around the back and have your collar straightened if you get my drift , But then look at a few years ago that similar age guy smacked that police woman and as his father well know in wine industry has a lawyer that gets him off that now tells us where society has now gone. GUTLESS governments both National and labour
  12. I'm in the same camp as you NELLI, I'm in the NI when you are a owner trainer/breeder its hard to get them to go first start or even after 3 but by that time your getting a knock on the door saying last chance then what off to retrial/workout which you'll pass then back to races . what did you learn from that I say nothing as most of us totting people get the last dam race well I don't train at bloody midnight. You don't have 1 win pacers parked up your arse in a maiden pacing field.I to would like to see maiden mobile after all its not a standing start race. your right Eljay them gin swiggers aren't interested in common sense people, the ones that are paying all the bills.
  13. and the old trainers actually trained them to stand not to just line up and hope! Not quite the same nowadays as we have bred a more elegant trotter quicker better gaited but with that comes I wont say hot because they are not but I'll say far more on the toe to get on with it. If it was that easy as some would say then why have the unruly.
  14. I'm saying dump the tape its such a archaic way of starting. In most cases horses are standing or so slightly moving forward have a green light then GO bloody dam simple, Starters are telling drivers move forward so you know your about to get the green light. We spend time to teach horses to stay away from tape then you go to races and there's a bloody tape right in your face, I no some will be saying ooo we have done it this way for years true but we also use to live in a cave but we don't anymore... well most of us.
  15. Father has sound track record.... Then nex minute son comes in bang positive... but you where warned some don't get a warning I be saying Son u row your own canoe.
  16. I've always thought of laser or lights.Drivers know where they should be and starter and helpers stand on the mark so they know when you are over for god sake its not rocket science.Like really what dose the tape do absolutely bugger all apart from breakers that break it and then we piss around to have it reset, if you go over well you just come back then flash a green light same as mobile and we are off not bloody hard, But some wise owl ginn swigger would say ooo no we cant have that. ask Carbine god bless what he thought about tapes the 3 races he didn't get any money was all due to tape wrapping around his legs and that was hell 130 plus years ago and we still have it ha ha shit we are quick learners
  17. I see Auckland has a new screen that can be seen from the moon and I bet that didn't come cheap but we still use a tape to start trotters surely we can come up with a better way of starting .Most of them are well behaved so why have it ?
  18. The moment a level 3 was mentioned the goverment should have stated that from now you cant hook up your boat ,horse trailer, car whatever and bugger off out of town this would have given the edge back to the industry to tell trainers drivers jockeys ect you must stay put except for those to allow them to return home .
  19. The TAB made a big point about how a Auckland Trainer Driver used his smarts and got his horses out before lock down (I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT) BUT ..TAB that driver is driving tonight at the park and I bet you don't even mention it not to mention all the ADMINISTRATORS both Auckland and HRNZ that drive these meetings have allowed this to happen and these are the very people that make you sign bits of paper left right and center. I don't have a issue with the person himself far from it but I do have a problem how its been allowed to happen as I say BULL SHIT CASTLE as not been dotting their I's and crossing there T"s
  20. You are either Auckland or Waikato in this case not both, If you did it before the clock struck 12 that's fine but you shouldn't be allowed to jump back for tonight's Auckland races, I dont put harness racing in the essential category, HRNZ should have stepped in.
  21. Ok Newmarket as you seem to be wanting to educate us all on how a top stable operates then why don't you educate us on all the names off the horses that are not fast enough or are broken down by the ALLSTARS stable that end up at the butchers shop through no fault of there own come on there is always two sides to every top stable don't give us the line there's not many....we will be waiting with interest
  22. What do you want us to do get out the violin That's choices you make in life some of us work 3 or more jobs to pay for what you are playing with ... not to mention the jobs we do have fine tolerances that can mean life or death. Racing is merely a sport that we enjoy don't grumble enjoy it Everyone with stock sleeps with one eye open
  23. lots... and a very approachable guy as he has given me a few tips here and there and I didn't really know him all that well seemed like a really nice guy
  24. The re-zoning has helped with stakes gone from 30 mill to 80 mill and to see some of the apartments that re sold where up quite a margin so lets hope not is all lost in that big concrete jungle
  25. But I would have to say though the P Nairn trained lotamuscle was just as impressive how good is he with the square gaiter brilliant I would say.
