If you like harness racing you could watch this show called The Box Seat, some of the stuff is quite intelligent and could make you some money.
(There is absolutely zero guarantee that last part will happen)

Chantal Turpin has withdrawn pacing star The Janitor from the Go Media NZ Cup. Nothing major just a bad cold so wants to back right off as plenty of other targets on the horizon.

Outstanding fields Oamaru Sunday. Have made our punters promise limits reflect as such. Our biggest limits will be in play throughout the whole card which means at least, a bet to win of 5k FFWin.

NZ RACING’S HUGE MOVE: TAB NZ and codes agree to establish board to work towards merging of codes administration and setting up a Special Property Vehicle/Trust which could see club’s pool some property assets to help solve daunting infrastructure issues.
Could end up being one of the most important days in NZ racing history.
