You wouldn't be the first one Thor.
So many on here refuse to play KZN.
Play small just to have an interest.

We`re forever MOANING and GROANING without doing anything concrete. I suggest we withdraw our support for a start. I am from now onwards NOT going to play my R 5oo PA( if we can get 100 such withdrawals, there will be R 50 K less in the pool every meeting.

I am aware we get emotional when hotties get beat but is it a FACT that less favs win in KZN as versus other racing centers.

I notice that Hong Kong favs get beat regularly with their leading jock coming in for stick on the site

If anyone has actually stats please feel free to post.

Sure 33.3 % or one on every 3 favs in an international norm 🤔

It is not even a matter of the favs losing Dave - It is the strength of the favourites, and the pathetic nature of the runs they put in. You can't even trust the money in this province, so why the hell are we throwing our money down the drain.

Bookmakers are quickly gaining control of all roleplayers in SA racing... starting with racecourse operations, trainers, jockeys and who knows who else.Whilst their involvement is being seen as saving the game the other effects of it is completely overlooked.Its short term gain but long term pain in my opinion.

After the running of the 1st race Muis says in his interview that he thought this was a top horse,my point is why was this not told to the public,this is not a Gold Circle problem but a national problem,surely they understand that racing depends on the "Churn" they should be giving punters enough information so that they can win in order for them to keep the churn going because a piece of string is only so long and punters have only got X amount of disposable income.Do trainers not understand this!!!!!!
I know Alf Duncan personally he is not the biggest punter in fact he only has a couple of hundred Rand on his horses,so why keep it to themselves?

Well you probably referring to the shocking run of the r1 fav i backed it too. Fact is it happens and it was our choice to back it. If we thought it was a useless weak fav then its our fault not the trainer or jockey nobody is holding a gun to your head to punt it. So i am confused because you get beat on a bad decision of your own which i did the same now your solution is to boycott kzn racing ? sorry but with all due respect i don't see the logic. If there is any.

so again no logic because a fav runs badly and should never be that price in the first place it is now marcus and the bookmakers fault - laughable
