That’s new, and novel,
Winston being taken for a ride, for a change!

“Is that Tommy Gear coming up the rear?”

Spot the horses arse.

We’re going round the bend Winnie.

Driver and horse both destined to be dog tucker.

“Tommy, do you think anyone is betting on us winning?”

“I’m having some legal troubles, will this thing get us to Mexico?”

It’s election year and Winnie’s sucking up to anyone that will give him a minute………
August 14th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Go faster you stupid horse! Can’t you see the Vela family at the finish line?
August 14th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Winnie Peters taking Labour Leader Helen Clark along for another ride.
Disclaimer… I apologise to any horses who may take offense at this comparision.

I said the money was for the Spencer Trust, not put me in a f*****ng TRUSS!

NZ First had two cows. One of them was strange looking, had only one udder, and its milk was sticky and funny tasting. But you should have seen it tow the milk float!
August 14th, 2008 at 10:41 am
I’ve got the turning left down pat……
August 14th, 2008 at 10:42 am
I said “all this pressure is giving me the trots” … not “it will be my pleasure to go to the trots!”

what’s that mirror doing…..? oh hang on, it’s the horse’s arse.

“Ride it like meerkat…”
August 14th, 2008 at 11:02 am
“I still can’t believe you forgot to mention that Spencer Trust is the name of a horse. Why would I want to put all that money on a horse??? We’ve got a lap to go. You better pray we hold on!”
August 14th, 2008 at 11:02 am
jeez Lindsay, I said the $9 mil was free dinners and get pulled by whores!

Winston expresses discomfort with Minsterial Limosine Allocation from 9th floor.
August 14th, 2008 at 11:07 am
The Stuff article also says that Winnie’s “coiffured hair was covered with a hairnet then squashed by a protective helmet…”
I hope some enterprising photographer was quick enough to get a snap of that too – would be a great electioneering shot of the poodle looking like Ena Sharples, pitching for the pensioner vote.

Mark Todd… as he might appear in the 2028 Olympics.
August 14th, 2008 at 11:39 am
his girlfreind is called jan trotman how weird is that
perhaps captions should be
” as winston was cuming up the straight he yelled ” trotman trotman”
August 14th, 2008 at 11:47 am
Porky rides again
August 14th, 2008 at 12:01 pm
why the long face, Winston?
August 14th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
Winston: “Horses are a lot like my politics. I’m always preened and looking good, always running around where ever I’m told and when cornered I’ll kick out at anything in reach.”
August 14th, 2008 at 12:10 pm
“Hey was Vela or Spencer Trust sponsoring the prize money for this race?”
August 14th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
what Patrick said at 10.47am – poetry…
August 14th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
If you don’t get me across that line first, Silver, you’ll be a Dead Horse, the Kiwiblog Right will be flogging you…
August 14th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
Wally 1 at 10-56 and Patrick Starr at 10-47
Almost fell over.

The other thing I forgot to mention is that calling him the darling of the racing industry is a load of bullshit. The vast majority of trainers won’t get anywhere near the money he has poured from our pockets into ‘premier’ races. This cash all goes to the richest trainers and owners who have the best horses racing in the big events. Nearly all small and medium trainers I have spoken to reckon he’s a piece of shit. Once again, Winston proves himself an elitist bottom-feeding fuck.
August 14th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
Buggerlugs: The elite are to be found at the bottom then…?
August 14th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
To get the word from the horse’s mouth you have to be at the right end of the horse.
August 14th, 2008 at 1:21 pm
Winston Peters introduces his new Senior Go Cart: “Best of all, they’re made in New Zealand by New Zealanders for New Zealanders.”
August 14th, 2008 at 1:25 pm
buggerlugs – thats my intel as well – they are grumpy that the actions of a few have smeared the rest of the industry…

with a winnie the horse took off but then petered out .
there will be an inquiry into the race…..
August 14th, 2008 at 1:29 pm
I said i was SULKY
Not I want to SULKY
August 14th, 2008 at 1:34 pm
Winston has done the proverbial in his own nest. The money went where he said, not where the industry wanted it. So you have the minister making decisions that affect the outcome of the industry. The Winston fans will only see the positives but it’s not the legacy that he thinks it will be. Strangely, the announcement about the thoroughbred funding has been made yet.

“What? The horses name is “Fourth Estate?” No wonder I can’t get him to stop!”
August 14th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
“When I said I wanted to get behind a pair of galloping nuts, I meant Ron Mark and Doug Woolerton!”
August 14th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
“If that thing shits now I wont be sulking, I’ll be suing!”
August 14th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
ahh
and they’ve turned into the final bend
and they’re coming down the back straight
now with “Winston First clinging desperately onto Spencer” followed closely by “Simon Bridges on Way Ahead” followed further back by “Bob Clarkson on Been there done that”
and now Simon Bridges on Way Ahead is pulling away and look he’s passing Winston First who’s no longer first
and Simon Bridges is pulling right out in front
and oh no look now look the wheels have spun off the Winston First sulky
and Simon Bridges has pulled right ahead and oh no Bob Clarkson has run right over Winston First and Spencer!!
and oh no Spencer has broken away from the Sulky
and Simon bridges on Way Ahead crosses the line a full 400metres ahead of the field
and we’ve now got the track marshalls rushing out to assist the injured
and oh look at that in a magnificent gesture by Bob Clarkson on Been-there-Done-That, look he has reigned in the distressed horse Spencer and quitely led him back to the Priveleged Committee vet, Spencer is bleeding profusely and looks mortally wounded we’ll come back to you shortly with an update but it looks like they’ll have to put that horse down immediately!!
Ladies and Gentlemen what a dramatic end to the Tauranga Cup!
Now for the next race the Wigram Progressive Cup………

“Winnie don’t pooh”
August 14th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
Gives a visual to the words “horses arse”
August 14th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
Number four in the 7.35 p.m. race tonight was named after the Minister of Racing.
It has more chance of winning than Winnie has in Tauranga.
August 14th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
Patrick Starr (578) the winner………but my effort………”Who’s the donkey in the sulky?”
August 14th, 2008 at 7:50 pm
Polemic…I think you mean morality wounded, not mortally wounded…
August 14th, 2008 at 8:38 pm
“…fuck it – I’m going to have ‘hat-hair’ after wearing this…”

“Winnie blows win after posing for photo finish”
