Lightning Blue

Being a reaper sounds pretty GRIM anyway 😅. Never train off . just finished a 1/2 marathon now to warm up ready for lunch 😁. See the strong work-out you gave Maurice (your Ferdie mate) on Saturday , caused him to miss the start ? maybe you should of just made him do 10k's on the bike instead of 20 km 's in the end. hopefully Hesi learning from his errors. congrats on the Bold 2nd to Pete in the New Year Cup though . P.s possibly a Stronger work-out required for the Reapers Hesi ?? . Get em' down the 'nets' mate >> training with the Blackcaps maybe (in hard training for next World Cup ) can they get a 'Webby' One Day ?

6 teams of 6 ? 3-3 tied points don;t matter as keeps it close anyway . someone gets best aggregate point anyway .

Good Aussie Trifecta for you mate. Don't worry nz mates.... Me and Tas originally on/from an 'Island off the Australian Coast' just the same as you guys . the apple Isle. You might as well be another State anyway .the shakey isles.. Black Caviar with 25 out of 25 wins on the track in Australia . Well we stopped that run in a PJ comp anyway. The nz tracks a bit tougher for BC there . wink. thanks for the Lucky 7 Match One and All . catch you 'drafting' soon . thanks PJ. master of your craft . congrats Pete on your Cup success too !!🏆

I am very worried about the MAJESTIC (Globe Derby ) MAN coming over the Top late on. Here's the current best trotter in Aus JUST BELIEVE ( possibly a Lightning Blue clone lol ) being Run Down in a Group 1 last January by one of New Zealands greatest. Majestic Man stomping to victory , cruising on by for Brad Williamson..

Time to Pull out some good trotting moves now boys . Half carting , sudden easing of the pace, Push out a few 3 wide... are you coming up for a look at the lead at any stage or what ?? Maybe give Mark Purdon a quick ring ? get some advice ...

Maurice attempting to be a trotting lad now as well Rees. Left standing Flat footed at the start 🤕

Hey that was incredible . Both those Comp races so far were Michael and Matt Pitman trained Trifecta's . Well done in hitting one of those .

Might be some was just getting through the current comp first , then enter Sunday or whatever here. I was gunna do that originally too. Our good friend here Robert is usually in these things and enjoys your work here Pj . so have sent him a note saying you may of bought the closing date forward to today by the sound of it, so hopefully he can send message if he's going to enter Today. Not sure if he is or not though yet,.. but could be an option as is a wonderful team-mate to all.

Good luck to All . Thanks Pj and Hesi for yet another fun comp. 1. Kumara R3 / 3-4-7 2. Kumara R4 / 3-6-12 BB 3. Kumara R6 / 3-4-7 4. Kumara R7 / 7-8-14 5. Geelong R7 / 4-7-9 6. Geelong R8 / 4-5-8 7. Geelong R9 / 2-3-17

Grand Final Day Hesi.... Hope All the President's Men' are feeling great and limbered up for action. With your fellow Ferdies Geoff and PJ (1st and 3rd in the previous Super 7 Grand Final ) easing back to the Presidents Final today , they look a solid Quinella prospect. Sending 'Ferdie' Maurice up to battle it out in the BIG Super 7 Final this time round ?. Hope you getting him warmed up ok ? I suggest 20 squats, 20 push-ups, 20 Planks, 20 Pull-ups, 20 laps of the pool then 20k's on the bike .. good luck Moz !!

thanks PJ . few good sounding teams are turning up . see if i can get a start in one of them please.

R1/ 2-3-7 R2/ 3-5-6 R3/ 4-7-13 R4/ 2-4-10 R5/ 6-8-9 R6/ 1-3-5 R7/ 3-6-7 BB thanks PJ . have a great day.

yeah . stuck inside as been raining both days of year so far in Brisbane. so enjoying forums banter around the place. (My missus lives separate so deathly quiet in house 😂) and seeing as drew the fearless leader Hesi today , better give him a Rev-up to lift performance 😉. He is still in cricket 🏏 depression seemingly and was gone today by race 3 with a white flag and off and gone mowing. Another one bites the Dust .....

yeah i did, gave him a plug previous page here , showing his Win in the Winter SUPER 7 Championship . and as a winning Ferdie as well in the Spring,....... Geoff is sitting on a/the Hat-trick . Can he qualify to get it though? 2 more tries to get through to have a shot at hat-trick. good Luck to make it Geoff !!!

Good to see a fine FERDIES Man in the money at last . well played Maurice 🏆. PJ went pretty close fired up as well. also Managed to get Hesi to 'Fire Up' the mower 😁 is all he got. Hope he's not driving angry and mowing down the missus flower beds or anything 😂

hahaha ... no not disparaging at all old mate. was just a mere inquiry as to the 'whereabouts' of the mighty FERDIES in the Final Line-up?. Hesi aleady heading for the Mower by the look of it today, so we know where he went 😁😁. Geoff of course is the reigning SUPER 7 Champion from the Winter from your good self PJ ( and that ever present master of the game in Ian ) I'm already down a Kitchen Sink to him , having to throw the lot to hold him out on occasion lol. Ian might throw it (the sink) back on Saturday all going well ??😂... Best of Luck today PJ🏇 as you're up a good score after that Trifecta just Now . you're nearly in .. the Taree terrors have to get you home now 🏇🏇🏇 GRAND FINAL winter 2023 Geoff - LUCKY 7 CHAMPION $662.80 Ian $539.90 PJ $535.40 Lightning Blue* $493.00 Gee* $442.00 Secret Squirrel $387.20 Rees* $269.00 Trotslover* $183.00

No grumbling mate. The Ashes , The World One day Cup , The World Test Match Championship Final . all safely landed in Australia through 2023. Not too shabby . can't grizzle too much .(Brisbane Bronco's and Lions wins would of been cool though... just missed ) Hesi's 'Own Standards' were the Prediction of 'Baggie Greens zero chance in World Cup cricket Final in Nov' .. not too accurate me old mate? , but keep guessing . .. let's hope you're more accurate today and can Qualify for Saturday ??

Bringing on the Big Guns now . Hesi will have to get a wriggle on though.....The Hesi and his fellow 'FERDIES' team might of won in the Spring , but are still on holiday in the Summer.? Maurice, Hesi , PJ and Geoff all Not being qualified yet for the SUPER 7 Final next Saturday ? Too much celebrating fella's ?? Running on empty ? 😉

1. Tauherenikau R4 / 1-3-6 2. Tauherenikau R5 / 1-3-6 3. Tauherenikau R6 / 1-10-11 4. Taree R4 / 1-8-9 5. Taree R5 / 2-6-10 6. Taree R6 / 1-4-5 7. Taree R7 / 2-5-8 BB

Not a lot of cells active these days mate , so all good. Always taking it easy. Am shocked you're not qualified yet ? mucking around a bit like Hesi ya must be. Ya better getta riggle on old mate.... or you'll be left out in cold NZ rain and trophy cabinet remain empty. Happy new Year to you as well thanks Howie.

R1/ 1-2-5 R2/ 1-2-3 R3/ 1-6-9 R4/ 1-3-9 R5/ 2-3-8 R6/ 6-8-10 R7/ 2-4-5 BB thanks PJ . have a great day !

You're stiff again mate. Rees bombing you and getting in the Final to join his trotting mates me and Robert. Well done Rees !! The galloping blokes are under the pump. maybe need 'Pumper' Cassidy to make a comeback to chase em' up a bit.? 😁 Knocking the door down mate. You are doing amazing and surely the New Year will bring you the luck (and finals spot you deserve !!) Happy New year to you anyway !!🍻🍾🎉🎇🎈🥂
