  • paying 2% on our turnover with no relief for betbacks? Love your humour Jonesy! Sorry diva and agree with you on the fees structure for bookies. But if punters cant give bookies a little curry then where are we at...( and you can reply when you sto…
  • anyone know what " R&D apply " means ?? i won on excelorada today and TAB only paid out half the amount owed ? i cant be ********ringing them as i cant even remember my 4 digit password etc. when there is a late scratching, there are "refunds a…
  • What a terrific ride and I was stunned to realise he is still only 20 years old. Seems to have been around a long time. He is a very underrated hoop and always has been, has great balance and is terrific in a tight finish. Weight will get him but r…
  • Excellent and thought provoking thread. Last post from Bobby is spot on.
  • not sure why question Durrant now. - why not back in the middle of Belmont season when GREATWALL OF CHINA was used each week ( mid weeks mostly) as a pacemaker for either MM or Ch Rd and of course TEXAN's (RIP) easy lead / no challengers wins. That…
  • You trotting trainer bashers sound like the elitist thoroughbred hierarchy that wouldn`t give Fred Kersley a trainers license. Generalizing that all trotting trainers are cheats, shows the idiotic mind set of some thoroughbred participants who can`…
  • I sound like a broken record!

  • I guess we are opposing ends of the spectrum on this one Andrew. The trots are completely ruined and smashed and the influx of trots trainers is a worry for anyone honestly following the form. Of course its all on an individual basis but lets hope …
  • also HNY to all from me....
  • GO THE BEAVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! amazing day of riding by lisa and congrats on the treble
  • GO THE BEAVER!!!!!!!!!!
  • GO THE BEAVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Pike's patience and ability to lift them makes the difference in the last as bitter emu looked as though it was just about going to get Louisiana Lady but he puts the stick away close to home and drives her hard hands and heels and gets the money. A…
  • Son of a bookie and grandson of a bookie but not a bookie and not named Waterhouse!
  • wow jonesee the vitriol - and you even keep a scorecard. That is the problem you haven't thought it through - so spend as much time as you like perusing and digesting any TCO2 data - but i'll bet that you can't find a winner with their assistanc…

  • I just find it unbelievable that you are an advocate for dishonesty Rodent. Dishonesty and cheating go hand in hand and you are now a supporter of such conduct. I think the WA Stewards have done a terrific job over the last 30 years of getting their…
  • carey carey carey..... the WATA did publish results for all to read circ early 90s - was of no value except to further discussion on threads such as this which did not then exist. IMO If you took the 2013 Perth Cup you would see that as an example …
  • Rac surely you can see the value in seeing the figures. You could just for instance see which stables have consistent levels and which stables vary alot from run to run..which stables have horses race on low levels first up and then we see a marked …
  • Raconteur you may well be right as I think you have been through these things with the trots, and i can certainly see the validity of your arguments in that those not milkshaking will be almost forced into doing so via the publication of results. Bu…

  • I have long been keen on this and well done to the qld stewards. I would love the WA stewards to take note and take on the people who push the limits. At least then as punters we have a chance to see the levels and think things through for ourselves.
  • phenomenal money for the geiger today and the sydney syndicate get the cash...unbelievable strike rate when they go hard and they almost always get a soft soft lead....not sure how long it can on but its amazing the last 6 months or so. feel like we…
  • TALK ABOUT FLOG A DEAD HORSE IF U DONT LIKE IT DONT BET ON IT GO ELSE WERE STARTING TO SOUND LIKE A WHINGING KID. That is the funniest thing I have ever read on PTT..I have been chuckling for 10 minutes and have to hand it to ya Maily, you have a gr…
  • Who employs the stewards? If they aren't up to the job or if worse still they are part of the problem, who would have the power to get rid of them? There is a real problem in accountability. Stewards seem the odd man out in their lack of accountabil…
  • That's fine. So why wasn't there an announcement of the change of tactics? I think punters were entitled to know that a horse that had 2 starts for 2 wins leading all the way, going into a race that had very little speed opposing it, was going to ta…
  • Well people like fools gold should listen to the post race interview with miller and carbery rode to the OWNERS instructions I can categorically tell you thts what happened I like and respect Simon Miller but this particular trainer interview was a…
  • Bad luck for an outstanding jockey - I am always very happy to find myself backing one with shooter on top and hope he is back riding soon. Apart from anything else he is a rarity in WA in that he is prepared to go forward and lead whenever possible.
