I'd be 1000's up on Nat for example .and scale down from there. Just betting on jockeys at Flemington now on their Rapid race Day today. some are better than others.

Well if Globe is going to preach to us for taking part in this bit of fun 1 off tonight, he better preach to Rex & PJ too, for running their weekly comps that go over weeks. Tell them these are equalizator meetings. Oh and he participates in them too. Funny that. What the score update? Think Dunn just got up in the recent race at Addington 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancing Show Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Just seen this 🙂 very entertaining given I very rarely back female drivers! 🙂 I'm a Waikato origin driver fan, plus Tony 😉 But as it's got me 3 points I'll take them!

Lightning Blue Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Half way through the Driver Challenge and Karrots is cruising with leading driver John Dunn , with another special drive on AboveNBeyond. 11 points and a big lead for Karrots. Still running in the trail is Josias 6 pts, Field Commander parked out with 5 pts, Dancing Show 3pts with Nat, Happy Sunrise 3 pts with Ben Hope and bitterly disappointed to see High Flying Harry in a gallop for Newmans only drive. Double R 2pts, Globe D and Blackie 1 pt, Lightning Blue yet to score at all, with the 'Magician'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe - my view is the jockey makes very little difference - unless they are simply useless. Some are good at shortening odds though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Blue Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 Good run by the Happy Sunrise inspired Todd Mitchell putting in a MASSIVE (Metro) type of run to get back in the race. now on 6 pts. and looking for a karrot. Lightning Blue sees the Magic man McKendry break his duck ,with a 2nd placing with 'Kings landing 'to move to 2 points. Addington trot about to go , Karrots might not be 'The Player' in front at the end of this one lol.. could it be Nat for Dancing Show?

Very true Mardi.. but how I love it when I see Tony, Todd M or one of the Butchers bring one home.. and even Craig Newitt or Jye McNeill salute the judge.. we do have our faves 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightning Blue Posted January 21, 2022 Author Share Posted January 21, 2022 They hit the line in the trot . You can't help but admire the Top drivers !! a $37 quinella with Blair and JD . Double R picks up the 3 points. and Karrots say "tata everyone" "I'm Popular Alm" lol...... Lightning should of thrown in his girl Sam Ottley for the Tri as that paid $448. but picks up 1 point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R5 Alex altho not just the young fellas this time, a mixture lol. News out of Lincoln Farms is that A Drake will become joint trainer with Green for Lincoln Farms due to Green stuck in Oz. https://www.lincolnfarms.co.nz/stories/double-foreshadows-new-training-partnership-with-andrew-joining-absent-ray-at-the-helm/ Harness Racing New Zealand’s rules don’t allow trainers to be away from their stables for lengthy periods and Green is stranded in Australia, unable to get an MIQ spot to return. Green sees HRNZ’s decision to enforce the rule as petty given the circumstances, but is happy for Drake to become a training partner. “It’s a bit of a kick in the guts really as I’m stuck here through no fault of my own. But I have no problem with Andrew running things in my absence. He’s a very good organiser and is very thorough. “We’ll keep talking about the horses every day, as we do now, so nothing will change really.” Drake has driven 23 winners and has just graduated to being an open driver. He won the title of leading junior driver at Alexandra Park for the 2020-21 season with a record of five wins, two seconds and five thirds for a UDR rating of .1414.

The fab Nat has taken a second win for the girls at Addington , to boost Dancing Show to 6 pts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
