Rosie Myers communicating with family
By  NZ Racing Desk  -  October 23, 2020     Share           Rosie Myers. Photo: Trish Dunell Injured jockey Rosie Myers has shown significant improvement on Thursday with husband William Fell saying she was talking to family and understanding what was happening around her.
Rosie was injured following a fall at the Foxton trials on 6 October and was initially flown to Wellington hospital in an induced coma.
The popular Central Districts jockey was moved out of ICU last weekend and then on to Lower Hutt hospital where she had undergone facial surgery on Tuesday.  Until yesterday morning, the 33-year-old had not communicated verbally with family members.
William said that while she was “just like Rosie” the fact her face was still swollen and sore she wasn’t easy to understand, however he said she did appear to understand what had happened.
“It’s obviously early days but all going well Rosie will go to the Rehab unit either Friday or Tuesday,” William said.
“It’s just good to know we are going in the right direction – she is tough!”
William said he was planning to share a video from industry participants with Rosie later today.  The video came together thanks to Rosie’s good friend Sophie Baker who encouraged people to video their best wishes under the banner #youvegotthisrosie. The team at LOVERACING.NZ then compiled the messages into a video to be shared with Rosie, a short version of the video can be seen on the LOVERACING.NZ Facebook page.

Agree. I forgot to post on Weds, but got the trifecta in real life. 
Last night, remembered to post, got four home but of course, didn't back them. 
Except for Brooklyn Hustle, which I backed for a place. Came fourth.....
Comedy.

Having made selections for the newspaper liftouts for many years, i believe the terms Tips & tipster are misleading as they suggest that the "tipster" has some inside or more knowledge than your average punter. This may be the case in the odd race but definitely not in all races. The term selector is far more accurate in that the person is making selections based on their personal knowledge and read of a race.Everyone has the choice to follow the selections or not.  

Appalling behaviour really from NZTR. Talk about shoot yourself in the foot. For a dysfunctional and poorly run industry here they are with a superstar in their midst and they have never made the most of it. NZTR may not miss Chris when he has gone, but I'm sure many others will.
If it was any of the more favoured jockeys going for that record I'm sure there would be media coverage all over it. I just hope he finally cracks it at a track that actually appreciates him.
I can't help thinking Kiwi Ida would have done a lot better on its North island tour if CWJ had been able to ride her. She put up some massive runs with no luck.

UPDATE ON ROSIE !  ♥️
 

Orphanpete, Paigezim and Memphis2 with the First Four in the race pushed them up the ladder.

Yes, it's easy to carp when there is a free comp, that comes with cash prizes! 
To be fair, I bet most cafers appreciate the effort that goes into these events.
Thanks heaps!

Geez if thats all we got wrong then things aint to bad...

Gee we blooded some youngsters didn't we?? At one point in 2nd half there was Clark, Umanga- ?, Hodgson (prop), that young lock, Sotutu; all playing their first Test.
Augurs well for the future.

BZ on Get On is the worst tipster. Week in and out. But as you say he is so convincing with his analysis. And that’s their job they spend their working week and endless contacts coming up with losers. I can come up with my own losers thanks. 

I’d rather back Nomates tips

Thanks for that I was searching for it’s relevancy. 

shes just doing what the so called experts and 99 percent of the world is doing not her fault the majority of people and the world think she handled it quite well i agree with you theres more at play with this virus she cant ignore the advice from WHO etc the backlash from that will be greater than the virus itself .If you dont agree with that opinion look up the election results the people have spoken

I’d rather back Nomates tips

Yeh Good theatre.He knew it would win.He also thought it would win last year.
No luck last year but today he had no interruptions.
Seems like a lifetime ago since Les trained the Melbourne Cup winner.
One of the old brigade.Good luck to him.

I wonder who the shark is picking fro the game today , whoever gets his nod is fecked , that's a real handicap .

A lot of that did happen. It was obvious that Labour would have the largest majority going into this election. The "biggest danger" to the country was that they NEEDED the Greens to form a government.
MMP creates strategic voting and by giving Labour your party vote to ensure they could govern alone and thereby taking power away from the mad Greens was a positive vote this election. Thus the tail cannot wag the dog.
