Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Betmakers has altered its CEO Jake Henson’s employment agreement so that he has to be given 12 months notice or paid a year’s salary if they want to get rid of him. When the average Australian worker has a 2-4 week termination clause in their awards, it’s a damn good deal for Henson. One that […]
Betr are saying that they are moving their bookmaking license from the Northern Territory to Tasmania to “support the company’s objective of operating from a jurisdiction that aligns with its long-term strategic, governance and responsible gambling priorities”. If you believe it you’re as silly as a wheel, even sillier than the Betr spin doctors who […]
Hi Archie You think that Dream Light was a rort! If you want to buy a 10% share in the old trotter Voronov it will cost you $7800! https://www.offnracing.co.nz/product/208/voronov/ The Canary only paid 15k to buy the horse from Dr Luk Chin. Admittedly there are no training fees, but I assume this means because he’s […]
One time Sky Channel star Chynna Marston has had her disqualification for animal welfare offences reduced from 7 years to 5 by the NSW Racing Appeals Panel, and her boyfriend Alex Kean has had his cut from 6 to 5 too. Neither of them bothered to respond to the hearing notice, and the pair didn’t […]
Earlier this week we wrote an article saying that Ikagai, which had galloped at 10 of its 14 previous starts, including in the first round of ID26 heats, should be banned from the series. Blessed Are They Who Gallop in an ID26 Heat, For They Shall Be Forgiven – If They Behave Chris from Clontarf […]
There is this desperately optimistic punter who we will call Barry. Barry had a 19 leg multi for a $1000 outlay on Neds, which if successful would have landed him a collect of almost a quarter of million bucks. He nailed 18 of the 19 legs. The 19th leg – leg number 16 in the […]
There was much conjecture that Japanese jockey Shuichi Terachi may have jumped off his mount at Port Augusta a couple of weeks ago. We came out and said that was nonsense, and declared that the kid fell not hauled off. Well guess what? The Stewards report is out now, and it is confirmed that the […]
Everyone’s favorite Kiwi trot syndicator Andrew ‘the Canary’ Fitzgerald has pulled another classic rort on the unsuspecting punters keen to get a foot in the game, and this time he has outdone himself. The Canary bought a filly named Dream Light at the Gavelhouse online auction for $5 000 three weeks ago. https://standardbred.gavelhouse.com/results/search?search=dream%20light&page=0 He is […]
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 […]
