Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I hate to say it, but this Inter Dominion 26 pacing series is absolutely shite. All we have is Leap To Fame v a badly drawn The Janitor and Bay of Biscay v Grimson’s born again pretend superstars Minos and Dangerous. What a joke. Just look at the first 2 heats on Saturday night. The […]
Archie Just got back from the Jundah Camels. At the start of Race 1 a old battler came over with a board with 200 squares on it numbered 1 to 200. “I’m raising money for Shane McGovern’s partner” he said. “Square numbers $10 each and you win a gorilla if your numbers drawn”. “Give me […]
Rugby league writer Dean Ritchie has this morning named his best all-time State of Origin team (above). I reckon he has got it mighty wrong, just as New South Welshman always do. Here is my team. I would back them to beat Ritchie’s any day of the week. ——————————————— 1. Billy Slater 2. Jarryd Hayne […]
Ikigai is a trotter who had broken into a gallop at 10 of its previous 14 starts coming into Saturday night’s first round heat of ID26. She should never have been allowed to start in the series, because the horse is a danger to other runners. In the heat he again busted up at the […]
Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow Some smarties are saying that prominent Victorian bookmaker Lay Off McLachlan is contemplating registering a business called the Sally Snow Fab Club, with him as the Chairman. We for one don’t believe it, because Knackers and Sally’s boss R. Waterhouse aren’t widely known to be close […]
This is the photo finish for 2nd in race 9 at Dubbo on Friday. The judge said that the inside prevailed, and the Stewards agreed. I reckon they are both wrong. There is no way that there is separation between these horses noses and the line. I am not saying that either or the other […]
You haven’t seen him at the track yet. You don’t know his name. But he is a Monty to win the 2027 Golden Slipper. Laugh you might right now. Just remember that you heard it here first.
We tipped you into eight First 4’s last night at Albion Park. Seven of them got up. These were the dividends for a dollar. $509.00 $68.30 $355.20 $69.30 $2014.20 $928.00 $5.10 Woo hoo. We gave you eight trifectas and a bunch of winners too. Archie knows nothing about the trots hey? Yeah good. It was […]
Captain’s Mistress brains them in the Rising Sun and runs a mile rate of 1.50.3. Leap To Fame holds the track record for the 2138m distance at 1.51.0. Or did until a few minutes ago anyway. Not anymore. Grimson’s mare is better than Larry? Puh-lease. Get out of here. How does that happen? I don’t […]
Word filtering through from the 2 day Oak Park picnic meeting is that a number of licensed participants had a very big Friday night, not the least of whom was jockey Amanda Thomson, who they say got a bit fired up on the jungle juice and ended up in an altercation or two. Someone should […]
