We'll take it BS 🙂   I was getting a bit excited when Ella kept on going 🙂 

I bet although I was watching through my hands as the 9 charged home for Ziggy 😝

Sorry Zig - talk about dance of the desperate today!

Good work Showtime - nothing like getting here by the skin of your teeth Skip!!!

Turbo versus Turbo. Neither wants to give an inch. 😆

It's a race to the bottom and we are neck and neck!!!

Good luck Zigman - always hard tackling a fellow Turbo so please take it easy on the Squirrel (you too Ray)!

I was expecting the siren to sound. My horse Lincoln Kruze was nearly squeezed over the running rail, was fighting to stay off it but he had to reign him back and clipped the heels as he pulled him away from the fence/. Demolition Derby that was.

Feel for you Rhys as that was apalling the way it went down

My God how rough was the Telegraph - surprise only one fell and there were plenty of unlucky runners

Day One and ready to race!

Good luck Sharne

Gonna be the firs time in yonks I don't have tipping supremo Ray on a team with me!

Looking forward to the lovely Maria and our impressive crew kicking some ass - as Beelejuice would say ....IT'S SHOWTIME!!!

Also in regard to trouble in the Ellerslie infield.

Three instances spring immediately to mind from my seven year career working at Ellerslie - the idiot who was pissed from his BYO who got in his car and tried to race the field from the 1200m, the man with the machete who threatened anyone who came near his picnic blanket including young kids who were playing soccer and the intelligent pair who thought it would be fun to dive naked through one of the steeplechase fences and were cut to bits and created havoc for Ambulance and first aid staff as they nearly bled to death.

My all time favourite was the four young lads who brought in 96 cans of Heineken as their BYO - no other mates just them expecting to drink 24 cans each over the course of the day.

Just like a calm ocean, it might look fine but what lurks/occurs beneath the surface can be pretty amazing!

Yeah it's ironic that a music festival in Wellington is allowed to have unlimited free piss if you buy a VVIP Ticket for $995 but you're not allowed to take BYO alcohol into the Ellerslie infield.

Of course, the answer is nothing to do with crowd trouble or unruly behaviour, it's about gouging on course punters with overpriced drinks.

I went to the infield for years and never saw a hint of trouble although I would concede that behaviour has generally worsened over the last decade.

Just to clarify for everyone, Ellerslie's ban on BYO was primarily due to the NZ Police and their requests for no BYO rather than the Club making a unilateral decision. If your entire Liquor license is placed in question then best to comply I would suggest.

I'm in - no captain though

I'd like to nominate all those who post heir tips every week - i is very much appreciated and always good to see your thinking on some of the roughies I like as well!!
