Donkey Donelly at it again. He is as least as bad as Lamb was. The main problem is that the drivers are in control of the start with them charging the taps and sop he just lets them go. Last week there was Maui at full speed when he let them go and was able to put 20 lengths on Eurokash. Grow a pair or give the job to someone who is in control. Surely the stipes should be fining him for incompetence - these late scratching affect the income from the tote and is detrimental to the harness community as a whole RACHMANINOV - backed away prior to the start and was a distance behind the field as the barrier was released. Declared a non-runner by Stewards under Rule 213(1)(e) due to unsatisfactory manners prior to the start. Stood down to trial to the satisfaction of Stewards on one occasion from a standing start prior to resuming. ROCK LOBSTER - broke at the start losing all chance. A Request for a Ruling was lodged with the Adjudicative Committee to determine whether the filly had been denied a fair start after driver J Dunn reported that he had been hampered prior to the start. After viewing the replays and hearing evidence from Mr Dunn and Stewards, ROCK LOBSTER was declared a non-runner by the Adjudicative Committee.

Sunday morning question....discussing Nevele R yesterday and it was recalled Kiltie Boy stood in later years at a small farm / stud near Timaru in latter years, only came up because of Holly Highlander's win and the Gerry Mir connection somewhere along the line. Anybody recall the name of the stud? Thanks for any info. -
Hi Stodge, a good summary. The quick, slow, quick pattern of the leader dropping the anchor particularly applies to Ellerslie for some reason. Maybe the slight rise in the back straight is the reason. George Simon refers to the fact that they have slowed the pace appreciably, probably 90 times out of a 100 races. It is certainly not a prevalent elsewhere, definitely not Trentham. Having said that, we are clearly different from the Uk/Ireland where they continue to build pace as they go. Interestingly and thankfully the first three home in the Mufhasa (Captain Cook) were the three highest rated runners prior to the race so hopefully that will help keep its G1 rating.

Everywhere you look tonight there will be Kiwis in the thick of it. View the full article -
Cannot see it. Just Believe has better credentials. Rowe Cup, Dominion, Trot Slot, Lyell Creek, National Trot. Most stakes for the year in NZ from just six starts.

The whole thread is about AI form and what a waste of time it is. That it is incorrect information displayed for the punter. The AI form comment is front and centre, and the question is why ?? PDF comments are better, so why can't they be front and centre. But I was never referring to PDF comments, along with the subject matter again it is all about the AI comments.

Looking a this, one of you is referring to AI form and the other one pdf form. So no winner both correct. -

Amended final results for Round 3 Floyd has pointed out that in the last race I incorrectly gave the $7.50 for second place to #7 rather than #6. I did get the quinella and trifecta numbers right. The correction didn't change the top 12 places but did change a few placings further down by one or two spots. Apologies for the error. -
You have been robbed plain and simple. Try contacting them again at helpdesk. I find them pretty accommodating by phone, and it's pretty obvious you are correct. If no luck there, take it further. Good luck and keep us updated.

18. HEAD TO HEAD 18.1 Head to Head Bets will be available on selected events only and will include two runners from the same race. 18.2 Bets are settled on the highest finishing position as declared by the Stewards. 18.3 Dead heat rules apply. See Rule 1.4. 18.4 Bets will be deemed void where either or both runners are scratched prior to the race. 18.5 If neither of the runners finish within the top five placings of the race (as declared by the Racing Stewards), bets on the two runners will be void -
My first experience of watching NZ racing on Trackside 1 this afternoon. I thought the coverage of “Big Saturday” a little predictable and formulaic to be honest. It’s not unlike what Racing UK and Sky Sports Racing dish up with races back to back and little time for serious analysis. Watching the racing, I was struck by the quick-slow-quick pattern. They jump strong and race for 400m then the leader drops anchor in the middle of the race before a sprint off the home turn. It’s very different to how races are run in the UK or France. At Ellerslie, I thought IRISH LEGACY was impressive. SETHITO and OSTERIA showed themselves to be decent in the Bonecrusher. As for Trentham, THE PROPHET looks one to follow while I thought Opie Bosson rode a beautiful race on LADIES MAN to win the Mufhasa. The favourite did little wrong and she’s clearly decent - not sure McNab took it a notch easy 200m out and was caught napping by Opie. That’s probably harsh. Plenty of places today so we’ll see what happens at Te Aroha tomorrow.

I'm not completely sure but in a head to head I think one still needs to be in the first 3 maybe 4 or its a losing bet. But j could be wrong.
