Bye-Bye Mr Barrett
Our word from inside the Canterbury camp is that Trent Barrett is going to be sacked today. The Bulldogs fans will be rejoicing. They say the players will be too. And who the hell could blame them?
Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying

This has been sent to us by a concerned reader. Whilst for legal reasons we cannot confirm the allegations made, peterprofit.com supports every word that the reader says both about domestic violence, and about racing’s attitude toward it. It is not okay to turn a blind eye to violence against women, for it sends a […]
Corrupt US vet Louis Grasso has rolled over and pleaded guilty to his role in producing and distributing drugs to cheating trainers to dope their horses with. The indictment of Grasso is very interesting indeed, and provides us with a short, sharp lesson in how to dope a gallops or harness racing horse. There are […]
Our old mate Chainsaw has 62 of the 96 runners in races 2-10 at Launceston last night, which adds up to about two-thirds of them. Based on those numbers he should have won six races. You’d have to be able to train well to that though, and the Saw can’t. So he won just three. […]
Gee this Kiwi trainer Craig Ferguson’s form has improved a bit hasn’t it? It’s not just because he fluked a top horse either. His 7 wins have been achieved with 6 different ponies. So what is the secret to this man’s sudden success, and his Emma Stewart like strike rate? You’d have to have ask […]
At it’s first start three weeks ago – 3 weeks? Not again! – at Invercargill the Kiwi pacer Bettorthanarocket led in slow time, folded up like an umbrella before the turn, and got beaten 17.3 lengths. The mile rate for the race was 2.01.9, which means that it ran about 2.04. Yesterday the same horse […]
I have watched this replay of the finish of race 6 at the Ashburton trots yesterday 10 ten times, and I still can’t see a margin for the winner. Do I need new glasses? I dunno. One thing that I would like to know is why Korban Newman, one of the stable drivers for the […]
As you can see in the republished stories below (which are merely a selection of them, there are more), we have written several times about the QLD trotter Doug, who gallops away at almost every start he has, and steals innocent punters money. Look at the picture at the top, which is Doug’s recent form, […]
Is it April Fools Day or something? What the hell are the QRIC Stewards talking about? Doug has a good record in regard to galloping free of interference does he? Bollocks. What’s this? That was seven starts back. How about this one two starts ago? This is what Doug did on Saturday night. Note that […]
The talented but highly temperamental trotter Doug was placed on another warning by the Stewards after again galloping away from the stand at Albion Park on Saturday night, but you really have to start wondering how long a piece of string is and asking the question when does enough become enough? This is the seventh […]
