THE SPORTS BETTING TAKEOVER

April 6

' Twas 30 years ago last month that I got banned for breaching the dress code at Ellerslie racecourse.

Courtesy of writing an Astrological column in the weekly Truth, I had press privileges and also used to collect Astrological information on persons for my 0900 race-tipping service. For ages it had been normal to saunter around the birdcage talking to suit and tie-wearing licence holders in  my customary  shorts, jandals and T shirt, 

But on this sunny Saturday without any major races, I was summoned to the office of the Auckland Racing Club's C E O Dave Lloyd. Who was not happy with my casual attire and had a stipulation: To be a member of the press at esteemed Ellerslie, I had to be in long trousers and shoes and a respectable shirt !

Okay, and not worth arguing about or relating some case history. Last Boxing Day the diminutive trainer of the NZ Derby winner had handed shorts-and-jandals me $50 in that very birdcage to ' go and get some champagne for these ( nearby associates of his ) buggers.'  Which I did. And a month or so later, the diminutive trainer had a minor Ellerslie winner but was away. So his wife was in the winner's stall as the stable representative, and about to be invited into the hospitality room for the customary, complimentary drink.

So the stable representative decided to invite me in for a laugh. The club steward on duty seemed appalled by my attire as well, but poured me a requested orange juice. And I could have even told Dave Lloyd about the shorts and jandals being worn during an interview here for Trackside Channel on New Year's Day ! When enough predictions came true for commentator George Simon to request another appearance in mid-February. When Tracksiders were introduced to the racecourse certainty !

' BLOODY HOT DAY '

TRUTH newspaper ran a story, including a photo of the offensive attire in the Ellerslie birdcage. And highlighting the tumbling turnovers and attendances the track had been experiencing outside the 3 or 4 big carnival days. A couple of years later I was in attendance on a steamy March, minor meeting with one of the smallest crowds ever. When Dave Lloyd approached me, accompanied by the elongated racecourse inspector John McKenzie, and I asked how Dave was.

' I'm not very happy, Don !  '  so I replied with my sympathy for ' having to wear a suit and tie on such a bloody hot day ! '  And D Lloyd began another lecture about dress codes. He wouldn't accept my theory about The more clothes you wear, the less you can be trusted, while McKenzie managed to suppress his laughter. I told Lloyd that I would leave the birdcage area, then return when he was gone because cost cutting didn't have any white coat persons manning the entrances.

I didn't, in fact I've hardly bothered with Ellerslie attendance since Trackside Channel suddenly canned my irregular appearances  after the 1996 Great Northern Steeples epic. Hard-nosed horsey tragics had come to despise Astrologically-calculated certainties, because the owners, breeders and trainers wanted all the credits for themselves. While unaware of the big bad wolf lurking---sports betting !

ENTAIN IS CRUMBLING

It was in 1996 that horse racing lost its monopoly when sports betting became legal in NZ. By 2017 sports had captured 25% of the market share and in February 2025 it got to 50% !  And soon to be in front as horse racing  gets weaker and weaker. Poor, dumb racing people for failing to capitalise on the certainties that sports doesn't have. Trackside Channel could have promoted the national know-all  in shorts and Polynesian shirt with more Astrologically-calculated certainties.

A must watch for all in  the industry so riddled with losers, wannabes and has-beens, hoping the bastard gets it wrong. While everything's turning to custard for NZ racing's sugar daddy, Entain. We've been laughing ever since they took over in June 2023, with even more mirth at all the allegations of money-laundering Entain is facing worldwide. And their latest stats on the sharemarket !

Down 17% last week. Down 31% in the last month and 37% in the last year.

PORTIA WOODMAN'S ' MANY UPSETS '

April 4

Don't fool yourselves. Astrology is amazing.

 Nobody escapes the wrath of Pluto, Uranus and their accomplices. With plenty of sensational prophecies already this year, highlighted of course by the confidently predicted ripper recession for New Zealand. ( That officially runs from February 2025 until November 2026 )

Add names of more 2025 victims like Tuipolotu, Tamihere, Tamaki, Woolf, Moroney, Allpress, Mitchell, Garner and Gatland. As is so often maintained, there shall always be beneficiaries of Pluto and Uranus awesomeness, even in a recession. Like NRL notables Tamatoa, Going and Doyle from the 4-4 NZ Warriors' Reserve team, and Rabbitohs coach  Wayne Bennett is 3-4. Then breaking news yesterday:

Black Ferns great Portia Woodman-Wickliffe’s quest to play for the Newcastle Knights in the upcoming NRLW season is over because of a conflict of interest.

The 33-year-old – who exclusively revealed to the NZ Herald last year of her desire to play in the NRLW - had agreed to terms with the Knights last year to make the switch, but the NRL - which runs the women’s competition - refused to register the contract because of her ambassador role at the upcoming women’s Rugby World Cup in England.

Not really a surprise after the appearance in last November's Annuals !

Woodman, Portia:

Many upsets for rugby star with Uranus whacking her Mars and Venus. May, July, Oct, Dec and March, April 025 crucial.

NZ'S SYSTEM NOT BROKEN

April 2

' If you keep people exhausted and distracted, they won't organize. You keep them struggling and divided, they won't resist.

The system isn't broken, it's working as designed. '

As noted previously, the New World Order plan 50 years ago was to discourage monogamy and legalise homosexuality in order to wreck the family unit, and ultimately have the state educating children, instead of parents. And it is so working--as designed !

 This is why the many-headed monster of the pit is encouraged to

Watch: Crash at Australian airshow leaves pilot seriously injured

Watch: Man suffers burns after he was attacked outside his Takapuna restaurant

Watch: Man confronts armed police with metal pole in Ōrere Pt, Tasered before death

Watch: ‘It was vicious’ – Dramatic conclusion to Auckland police chase caught on video

Watch: ‘Reckless challenge’ leaves footballer in hospital

  instead of reading, thinking and asking questions: Like

How T F could one predict a horse racing certainty 5 years, 4 months and 3 days in advance ?

How T F could one give 4 years warning of one of NZ's worst-ever disasters ?

How T F could a predicted pinnacle in 2 years time coincide with the biggest upset in rugby league history ?

WARNING:  The results will be devastating to some. Parental guidance may be necessary.

UNMASKING AIDAN RODLEY

March 31

Many humans are scared about their real ages.

It's very common in media and showbusiness, and some tell amazing lies. As we revealed in July 2023 beneath

AIDAN RODLEY--  LIAR OF THE AGES

when the Trackside presenter's Facebook birthdate of November 5, 1982 was questioned. The idiot forgot to shred the paper trail, and his stupidity was confirmed in a biography elsewhere:

 ' I left the Aoraki journalism course in 1997 and went to the Ashburton Guardian.'  At age 15 ?

Telling lies is more notable with A Rodley being the son of a preacher man. His father, the Reverend Geoff Rodley, is a Quaker shaker in New Plymouth ! Rodley sen. even played a couple of games at fullback for the 1972 Taranaki rugby team alongside several All Blacks.

The paper trail has tripped A Rodley again, this time in the Auckland Libraries:

Elite : a contemporary history of Group One Racing in New Zealand

Rodley, Aidan, 1972- 

' The only one who could ever reach me

He was the sweet-talking son of a preacher man '

ICELAND'S UNCONTROLLABLE FIRE HORSE March 29 A few days ago there was discussion on the very talented but uncontrollable  Fire Horses--those humans born in1966. Then this makes the news: The past has come back to haunt Ásthildur Lóa Þórsdóttir, Iceland’s Minister for Education and Children. She has resigned from her post following revelations of a past relationship with a 15-year-old boy, with whom she had a son. This relationship, which began when she was just 22 and leading youth work in a religious congregation, was uncovered by the national news channel RÚV. She was born on November 20, 1966. A closer inspection of Ms A L P's birth planets earns a giant expletive. Energetic Mars, erratic Uranus and revolutionary Pluto locked together in Virgo ! A destructive union which creates major psychological issues and an inability to maintain positive energy. And the guarantee of a major mid-life crisis or few. Consider some notable NZ-ers born with the union:   Brent Todd, Sir John Kirwan, Clarke Gayford, Cameron Slater, Brooke Howard-Smith, Michael Laws, Grant Dalton and the late Keith Murdoch. Horse racing personnel include Tony Allan, Lisa Cropp, Stephen McKee, Karla Dye and the departed legend Ray Cleaver. Quite notable too, that the Iceland woman's  dramatic reversals were programmed, after the indicators last November of Uranus-Sun reversals for Nov 19,20,21,22,23,24 people ! Uranus v Sun problems were also deemed for Feb 16,17,18,19,20 persons, as well as  May 18,19,20, 21, 22 and August 20,21,22,23,24. So many others have been reversalled this year by forces beyond anyone's control. From things like fires in Los Angeles and floods in Queensland to all the liquidations and lay-offs, and footy teams lurking at the ladder's bottom.  Uranus v Sun victims this year already include Paris Hilton, soccer's Luis Rubiales, jockey Lisa Allpress and the NRL's latest drama boy, Daly Cherry-Evans.. While Auckland mayor Wayne Brown and All Blacks coach Scott Robertson are others in Uranus' cross-hairs for 2025 !

THE AUCKLAND ALARM

March 27

Keeping the great unwashed angry and dumb is important to the New World Order.

The many-headed monster of the pit is supposed to take NZ Herald shit like this seriously, and start an argument:

Sound the alarm. The Blues’ title defence is officially teetering on the brink.

Last year’s dominant surge to their breakthrough title is rapidly fading from view after the Blues suffered their fifth defeat in six matches to remain rooted near the foot of the Super Rugby Pacific table.

That alarm was sounded with the Auckland Blues’ captain’s appearance in the Annual Prophecies on November 26 last !

Tuipolotu, Patrick:

Difficult personal reconstruction for rugby player with Pluto squashing his Sun and Mercury. Feb, March, June, July crucial before big positives in 026 from Uranus trining the Sun and Mercury positions.

Same place had another alarm sounded for March:

Woolf, Kristian:

Major off-year for NRL coach with Uranus v Venus and the Node, and Pluto savaging Mars. March, May, June, July, Oct crucial.

K Woolf's Dolphins are struggling at 0-3 in crucial March.  While the best case of sounding the alarm happened on Saturday, November 22, 2003, around 4.45 p.m. A galloper named Sound the Alarm was the Don Murray Racing System's weekend investment in the sprint classic over 1100 metres at Pukekohe. 

While I was sounding the alarm via telephone to Murray Deaker and a Newstalk ZB nation about probable next All Blacks coach Graham Henry. And his destructive Pluto and Uranus phases late in 2007, next RWC year ! A long-winded interview that ran well over time, as Deaker raved about my great prophecies of 2003. So I was unable to scream or punch the chandelier when Sound the Alarm galloped into the muted television screen and won by a neck !

I could only mutter about Pluto this and Uranus that while I'm waiting for the judge's decision then the $6.55 win dividend. But I was able to punch the chandelier though on that glorious Sunday morning in October 2007. When France dumped the Henry-coached All Blacks in a quarter-final, for NZ rugby's worst-ever RWC result ! A devastated nation was laden with hatred for the next 2 months.

Astrological magnificence sounds many alarms, but there's just as many green lights. Like the big 2025 forecast for the NZ Warriors Reserve team last month. Purely because of awesome Pluto and Uranus phases this year for coach David Tangata-Toa, captain Kalani Going and fullback Geronimo Doyle. This team's currently 3-3 and top of their table.

Even in this exciting and very predicted ripper recession there shall always be recipients of Pluto and Uranus awesomeness. Now ripper isn't normally associated with recession, but it does apply to the dirty media slaves of the escablishment. The recession's gonna rip up lots of employment contracts and fragile egos.

These professional bum wipers hate the reality of the great Astrological science and are paid to produce pain. Fortunately many more of them shall be removed in these next 2 years of ripper recession. Liars and cowards deserve redundancy, so that has to be good.

Coming up: The veteran racing media puppet who tried to reduce his age by 10 years.

JULIA CUM SNEEZER

March 25

One of the many fascinations of horse racing has been their namings.

As per cunning concoctions involving the sire and dam. Like the 1988-born daughter of Spectacular Love and Listen In. She was named Steamy Windows.

All names have to be registered with the governing body, with time limits on certain names being used again. A job I began 54 years ago last month, fresh from school in Auckland. The dream job for learning all about horse racing as junior registration clerk with NZ Racing Conference in Wellington.

One of my first applications was from an Aucklander Eric Haydon requesting Phar Kinfast. Morals and ethics had to be considered so that one went no further. Similarly a Far Call was not allowed. But a few years ago I noticed a Pharr Canal, that was  born in South Africa in 2017.

Then some recent Australian reading discovered a crack up. In February 1852, a Julia Cum Sneezer, by Besborough, is listed as winning the St Leger at Launceston, Tasmania. The name was obviously popular enough to be used again some 13 years later.

 For the 1865  Melbourne Cup,  9 Tasmanian horses were entered, including another Julia Cum Sneezer. Fair dinkum. No bloodlines available, but she's listed in the Launceston Examiner, along with Count, Victoria, Mabratta, Cadland and Mozart . Some enlarging is necessary:
