Think Tank Is it time to ban greyhound racing and horse racing for good?

Not as profitable since Graeme Bate left the scene for sure

Banned for life for drugging dogs, what a prick.

Not bad at the weights. Hate this race. I'm a rusted on Northerly fan and his win with 58kg in 2002 is one of the highlights of my racing days

I'm one of those mug punters, very casual. I've barely put a bet on over the last year but AP has inspired me to have a crack during the hardest time of year to get a win. Thanks scrotes!

Why not buy a pizza and some beer and have a small bet on the soccer instead of doing your your dacks on the corrupt races.

lol old batey was around when I was first starting out. Used to win loads on him. There was an SA trainer called Shaun matcott we used to clean up on as well. Think bateys daughter was training for a bit too.

I casually enjoy a punt. I'm sure a few of the more serious punters would have a laugh at my 5-20 ew bets.
The everest is on tomorrow too. I'm loading up on giga kick like I did a few years ago when he came screaming home for the win.

Personally I'd like to see us combine the two, have greyhounds riding horses.

Problem is there is a horse race every 5 minutes and races go for 2 minutes, at least on sport you have to wait a few hours for the result

The cool thing is you can pick a race you're interested in and ignore the rest.
