mikenz 1,095 Report post Posted November 4, 2023 Any one got any thoughts on what they will do regarding rescheduling as I see trials also set for Ashburton Thursday, there is a track not far down the road from Ashburton not doing too much but will the authority's turn a blind eye ?

Useless bastards. Your being a bit harsh. Those black book notifications are computer generated based on info you supply. If they didn't notify you i'm picking you would be on here moaning as well.?

People do not like mediocrity in the industry (myself included), but this is where it starts. There is nothing to reversing computer instructions. Staff probably effed of home when the races were cancelled for the day. JJ Flash 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im pretty sure there were other meetings on both here and in Oz so your second point is nonsense whilst i'm also sure that their are other more important issues to address than reversing your individual blackbook selections when a meeting is abandoned due to weather bombs of the type that hit Canterbury over the weekend The solution for you might lie in another dealing with another provider- just offering you a solution to what is obviously a pressing issue for you Pak Star 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found most of the other sites tee up their notifications based on the field nominations being finalised a couple days in advance. I have even got notifications for horses that have been scratched on the day. Do I care? No. Would I expect NZTR or TAB to care? No. We're all adult enough to work it out for ourselves, even Muzzaman. wph, JJ Flash and chiknsmack 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
