Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Ka Ying Cheer won at Swan Hill up on the banks of the Murray River on Friday. I saw it with my own two eyes. There was no way in the world that it was ever going to back up at Flemington at the other end of the State the next day, or anywhere at […]

Hi Archie Hope you are doing well. Just wondering if Grace Panella and Brendan Flaherty share a farrier which could explain the possible meth contamination. Why has Flaherty been stood down and sentenced when his positive was months after Panella’s. (August V November)? Why hasn’t Panella also been stood down? Surely HRNSW aren’t playing favorites. […]

https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/wa/GPC02062610.mp4 This is race 6 at Gloucester Park last night. Number 3 Strike Force has been backed late from $15.00 into $7.50, and according to our mail from the corporates has been coupled up in multis and exotics for plenty. Kyle Harper drives it. He is the son of the multiple disqualified cheat Lindsay Harper. […]
Mick Boots (pictured above, left) is Australia’s biggest harness racing owner. He owns or owns shares in 300 horses. Pacer and trotters cost about $800 a week one average in training fees. Assume Mick Boots pays the equivalent of 200 training fees, and that means that he is paying $160 000 a week to have […]
As you can see in the story below, trot trainer/driver Jordan Topping has form for animal welfare breaches. Her partner Ryan Veivers does too. This pair are not people who care properly for horses. Now we learn from the Harness Racing Australia website that last month Jordan Topping copped 2 x 6 month disqualifications, to […]
