Nothing broken. Had a sore back. Pretty lucky I thought after having watched the incident. Listed to ride at Pukekohe on Wednesday.  

Geeeez guys .I know what your saying and probably right but these 2 guys do the hard yards at home,do the paying etc etc. They enjoy what they are doing and it's people like them that keep the game going. If you don't like the way they drive keep your money in your pocket. The sport is struggling re the loss of heaps(and I mean heaps) of owners and trainers. 

All very strange this aversion to AWT. Must admit thought they would be super for trainers allowing for good footing in winter. Seems trials are not too popular? Why?  I tried the odd bet early on but stopped as I could not find many winners, in fact stuff all. Still thought they were great for trainers, but trials cancelled? Cannot understand at all. You run at trials no need to go flat out, just run around to suit your horse.  Let's hear from a trainer, or owner please.

Having a throw at the stumps looking for some value. Without the knowledge of our good friend Stodge I might add…. Queen Anne - Trust Mr Haggas to have MALJOOM ready to go. Remember his unlucky run against Coroebus last year.  $13/3 FACTEUR CHEVAL $4 and ROYAL SCOTSMAN $18/4 others of interest. Coventry Camille Pissaro $6, The Actor $12/4, Symbol of Honour $18/5.  The interesting runner is Angelo Buonarroti a €1m Justify colt having its first start. King Charles Sticking with ASFOORA, her best will take her very close $7/2. Rogue Lightning $11/3 St James Henry Longfellow $5/2 and Notable Speech $2.50 Ascot Wide open event as many are - Zanndabad $6/2, Tritonic $13/4, Berkshire Rocco $ 17/5. (Kyle of Lochalsh an obvious one for me $15/4 but a dual acceptor in the last ) Wolferton  Mujitaba $15/4, Botanical $5/2, Israr $4/2, Torito $4/2 Copper Horse Naqueeb ( related to Baaeed and Hukum ) $14/4, Belloccio $4, and Party Central ( 3/3 third up ) $15/4.

what latest on michael mcnab.cant find any updates

Even worse it is a UK company so all the shit the UK punters have to put up with like restrictive practices, uncompetitive odds, complex verification processes, and poor customer service will all eventually weasel their way in to our lives at some point. You can already see this happening with the website issues and waning customer service.

I agree look at George Elliot and the difference in results is night and day when Trevor Grant is not in the sulky. Rachmaninov would have had a lot more success if Trevor didn't drive it week after week. Would certainly have won double the prize money at least. Betterthandiva another one who got instant results when John Dunn got on and was not driven by Dobbs. Imperial Command a string of badly driven non placings and Peter Davis gets on. Bang third at big odds and nearly won. (I got a packet off that one at $16 the place and would have needed the armoured car if had won at $71.00) 

Just about to post that , at $1.01 to be canned you were never making much . Nothing for another 2 weeks at Foxton , I wonder if the can be pulled forward a week to save owners a weeks training ? I ask again what is it going to take for them to get up with the play ????

Working for Bob Baffert were Arabian Knight, who worked a bullet five furlongs in :59 1/5, and Reincarnate who went four furlongs in :49 1/5. Arabian Knight has been sidelined since a fourth-place finish in the Nov. 4 Breeders' Cup Classic. View the full article

Awapuni Trials Cancelled Due To Insufficient Nominations - 16 Total Nominations Bugger could have made a quid from the TAB off that.

I suggest you go back to your friend of a friend and get the correct story on absolute Dynamite,  I take it that is the horse you a referring too and give us all the update . Then give yourself an upper cut. Don't worry I'll keep reminding you to post it.

Jumping trials today so going to give every horse a chance as they need all the jumpers they can get .  Tomorrows trials come out shortly , along with the Awapuni synthetic trials , waiting with bated breath to see if they will have the numbers for either of them .

About as funny as your blood spinning machine!

Was it Auckland Reactor, Smolda , Lazarus or Adore Me?😂

That's horrendous, and people think Entain and this crap app is the future. The moment you take the people element out of the equation we are stuffed. Apart from that, I rang the helpdesk the other day and had a nice conversation with a young lady talking to me from Australia. She is working for the NZ TAB. What the ?? Why aren't they employing Kiwis ??? ... this whole Entain thing feels so so wrong.
