https://youtu.be/DB68R4-O9iE Click on Watch on YouTube The man talking in this video is former Premiership winning NSW harness racing trainer and driver Chris Gleeson, who in 1996 was warned off for life for corruption. That ban was lifted after 14 years, but Gleeson is an undesirable who will never be allowed back into the sport […]
We’ve received a large volume of correspondence relating to our story yesterday about former HRNSW official Adam Fairley being soon to appointed to replace Craig Meagher on the board of the organisation. No-one who has contacted us is in favour of the appointment. What we have been told is that while Fairley was a senior […]
Look at the horses Vo Rogue beat. Not beat, thrashed. Super Impose. Better Loosen Up. Campaign King. Bonecrusher. The Phantom. Stylish Century. Myocard. If you are too young to remember them or know how great these horses were just Google up their records. Japan Cups, Cox Plates, Derbies, Doncasters, Epsoms, Stradbrokes, BMW’s, you name it, […]
The former Kiwi pacer Nerano has had six starts since coming across the ditch. It’s won them all, and done it in brilliant fashion too. That’s why is was so surprising that there was no money for it in race 4 at Wagga on Tuesday night. There was plenty of money for So Much Bettor, […]

Tamworth harness trainer-driver Stacey Elliott was charged with cobalt offences in October. She is guilty of presenting horses to race with banned substance in their systems, but it wasn’t her fault. This hasn’t come out publicly yet, but you can take it as read that the feed she was sold by supplier Furneys Stockfeeds was […]
Norm Torpey has been around the Queensland stewarding ranks for a long time now, and has held some very senior positions within the ranks of the QRIC and it’s successors (and been demoted from them). Torpey is supposed to be one of the better stipes in the north, but I personally wouldn’t pay two cents […]
Poor old Emma Stewart had on off night at Melton in the semi-finals of the Breeders Crown on Wednesday didn’t she? Stewart managed just six winners from the ten finals she contested, which I am sure you will agree was rather piss poor, a rank failure if you have ever seen one. So was her haul […]
On the 11th of February former high-profile racing identity Damion Flower will be sentenced upon his plea of guilty to importing 228kg of pure cocaine from South Africa by smuggling it through customs using a corrupt baggage handler. I’m sure having all that money was fun while it lasted, but Flower is going to a […]
