  1. Small adjustment I think PJ - I think Steve P got the quin in that last race (4&6). cheers BS
  2. No worries good karma will come the Turbo's way!!
  3. The Turbo's bow to the mastery of the Southern gents who leave their best to last to swamp us with an unbelievable run by Cascadian. Well played Craig - good see saw battle until you had to do that to the poor Squirrel!! Hesi with the BB Q and Rob candoosit in the big dollars and even MC forgot about his golf clubs and downs poor Gazz on countback! Did anyone get the number on that truck that just smashed us!
  4. Turbo's v Highlanders - An arm wrestle between two x Tyrannosaurus Rex!
  5. The mighty Manawatu goes to the big smoke and does some damage (just!!). Thanks Howie for an interesting match that looked like you boys got bogged down in that Randwick mud - who knew that you had to be in the first two on the corner to win any of the comp races! I gave up on my selections once I saw the Sydney Cup result so thankfully Geoff had an off day and couldn't pull off a remarkable late run that he is known for! Good stuff Turbo's - Ray, Steve and Gazz all spot on the mark (although you were just pipped Gazz) while Zig and I were there to peel the oranges for halftime! Thanks as always PJ Squirrel out
  6. As I keep telling the horses I back Rexy.. Lift Lift! You can do it old son!!!
  7. Well played Ferdies we chased all day and came up a couple of strides short. Never fear Turbos we are not far away from giving someone and old-fashioned butt kickin!
  8. Magnificent effort PJ in trying circumstances. Thanks Maxi and the KK's - Jen did her Jen things in the last but thankfully we had a buffer. Mind you Ray may be having nightmares!! Great stuff Turbos - we are off and running!
  9. 6,7 BB in next and not sure what PJ has for me in the last - wanted art cadeaux and gravina but may have cocked that up right from saturday morning!!!!
  10. I will leave it in PJ's hands - happy to go with whatever decision he rules! Just hope that marvellous Mustelid I'm up against doesn't come with with a sneaky late run and destroy the poor squirrel!
  11. Now I'm confused - thought I had originally selected Art Cadeau and Gravina and those are the two I still want please PJ. I do apologise if this causes issues - obviously the Squirrel has eaten a bad nut!!
  12. Thanks PJ - my original numbers in that race were 9 & 11. Same horses are now 10 & 12 please cheers
  13. Cheers PJ Race 7 3, 4 Race 8 4, 5 Race 9 5, 6 Race 10 9, 13 BB
  14. Happy to get it over tomorrow PJ as Monday is a nightmare at work so wouldn't be able to monitor scratchings etc Will see what Team turbos want to do
  15. Absolute tragedy and devastated for the family
  16. Valiant effort from In The Congo and had the Squirrel chanting at the 150m Well played Chiefs - just too good today! My erstwhile opponent kept getting the quinella every time I bagged a winner (which wasn't that often). Good stuff Ray - kept us from the down trou and a complete whipping. Onwards and upwards for the mighty Turbo's - we have plenty more to give.
  17. C'mon Turbo's can't have a down trou to kick off with - The Squirrel not keen to be putting his nuts on display!!
  18. There is already a tunnel in place at the 600m (underground) so will only require some development on the access to and from it to make it work. Mainly maintenance vehicles, track vehicles etc. use it now. Re existing car parking - my understanding was this was to be come leasehold land with a shopping precinct, hotel and apartments similar to Alex Park however it never came to fruition due to the financial crisis a few years ago - maybe it is back on the cards. Access and egress had been council approved for this about 8-10 years ago (I think) but no idea what is happening now.
  19. So there was the Squirrel, quietly sneaking away in the lead and getting measured for his Arrowfield cap...then WTF a Tonka truck dashes past like Usain Bolt on roller skates and the Squirrel is left holding his nuts and feck all else!!
  20. And the singing rang about the many beaches of the nation as the Hot Baches celebrated "We're number 3, we're number 3!!!" Congrats Maria - a superb captain and to Stevie P (fellow Turbo), Pam and the Sunshine kid - thanks for an enjoyable comp with a great team😀 Sorry I couldn't snare that cap PJ but as always a huge vote of thanks for your tireless efforts ... well done that man.
  21. I thought Levante was enormous and equally as good a run as the winner as came from well back in the slowest part of the track
  22. Not the Squirrel unfortunately - thought I might have the magnificent seven comp cleaned up and then Tonka went past me like a Ferrari and not a fecking dumptruck
  23. Thanks all - a little close for comfort but will take the win. She wants a mile or more so plenty to look forward to!
