Kimberley race 9 - What a disgrace

100% correct

Having people post issues at hand such as this is fine, and its something we all want to hear, however if there are intentions to have a go at certain people then that is wrong. It is clear that there is a case for this to be followed up on, however trying to have a go at people is unacceptable, if that was the intention. I have sat here for nearly an hour now reading over this thread(and I must just say on a lighter note that its filled with more drama than the bold and the beatiful) but I still cannot make a case for any other reasoning that this person would have for claiming the horse so many times like this. Let's just call it a day, and wait for any findings by the NHRA/Bookies come out with, else we all going to start a very big fire here, and its certain threads like this which get out of hand that stop people from posting, if someone like sean miller had to take offense to this thread for what ever reason, and him chosing not to post anymore because of this, it would be a great loss to ABC.

Was going to close the thread but thought i should wet your appetite on what might happen on this weeks drama thread. " The Kimberly Disgrace."


Will Harris come out the closet and show his log?
Will Titch become negative after his private operation?
Will Justanotherpunter give up gambling?
Will Bushy be shaved and play a small part?
Will Sean leave the show?
Will Hibs become a moderate drinker?
Will the NHRA "Lips" be sealed?


Stay tuned for much more

It's threads like this that make ABC a great voice of the punter. If Harris hadn't have posted, I doubt there would have been an investigation. Its also wrong to accuse people of having a vendetta everytime someone wants to expose wrongdoing.

Titch wrote "...I feel that it is as underhanded backing a horse when one knows that the 2nd favorite will not run as it is claiming a horse in the knowledge that it will be scratched". Personally, for me, I see nothing underhanded, just a shrewd punter maximising his advantage in a racing event. Neither did he bribe nor dope nor fix nor attempt to fix. Nothing illegal. Very clever I think.

Where is the end of the corruption that always seems to threaten the sport?suppose where money is, corruption will follow.
It should be acted on with purpose and resolve.
I really feel for the addicted punters that ALWAYS infest betting outlets. They look miserable inside and outside and they most probably gambling their families food away.
The 'connected' have a distinct advantage in making this game profitable. The rest are foolishly gullible that playing lucky dip with formguides will yield predictable results.
This thread makes one want to avoid the donkey tracks as there is too little resolve to spend money and time investigating the regular graft that occurs.

Will try and keep this short and sweet but have had numerous calls and legal threats.

As far as I can establish is that Maak a Plan was punted by who? I have no idea, the horse was not well and scratched end of chapter one.

The second fav then became a betting prospect and was punted and in my earlier post I was guessing that even after the deduction that over 2/1 was a decent price and this was taken.

I would appreciate any other action, threats etc are dealt with via the parties involved and not using ABC, if racing bodies need to be involved rather use them than this platform and we can post outcome if one is reached.
