Max Presnell – The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
By Max Presnell maxpresnell.com/2025/10/20/a-weekly-review-the-good-the-bad-the-ugly-39/ Disclaimer – The views expressed are Super Max’s, not our own The GOOD and BAD centres around Peter V’Landys and Racing New South Wales while the UGLY is Sir Delius with undertones of the sensational Tulloch withdrawal from the Melbourne Cup.

Another Day, Another Debacle – Welcome to the Victorian Races
Today’s meeting at Kyneton has been abandoned due to the state of the track after just one race. Which is bizarre given that they were racing on a Good 3 track and there was no storm or other unexpected weather event. It was a surprise to see the horses throwing up such big clods of […]
On Metric Miles
Hi Peter, Regards metric miles. The correct conversion of a mile to metric is in meters = 1609.344m. So in the old language the King Charles III is still a foot short or there abouts of a mile. How about just getting a imperial tape measure if they actually understand that language? Cheers Barossa Bill
Belle on Corner Cutting Drives and Kicks
You didn’t really expect the stewards to penalise Cam for running over a few pegs in the Vic Cup did you? They didn’t penalise him for hocking Swayzee in the Hunter Cup remember, so why start now? That was also blatantly obvious on the video. https://peterprofit.com/exclusive-cam-hart-hocks-swayzee-to-victory-in-the-a-g-hunter-cup/ It would seem Cam Hart can do no wrong […]
A Realist in the Stewards Room – You Don’t See That Every Day

Cole told […]
Cam Hart Cuts a Few Corners
Our correspondent Albert from Alberton raised the issue of driver Cameron Hart cutting a few corners and breaking the rules by going inside the marker pegs in the Victoria Cup so we thought we would have another look at the race to see if Al was right. He was. You can clearly see in the […]
Melbourne Cup Off the Agenda for Sharp ‘N’ Smaryt
Story by Joshua Smith: Loveracing.nz Sharp ‘N’ Smart will be lining up on Melbourne Cup Day, it just won’t be at Flemington. The former New Zealand Horse of the Year was guaranteed a start in next month’s Gr.1 Melbourne Cup (3200m), being 23rd in order of entry, but his connections have decided to bypass the $10 […]
In Defense of the QLD Trot Stewards – An Alternative View to Our Own
Hi Archie Think your concerns re the stewarding at Marburg is a bit misguided. The Stewards should be commended for showing common sense in their approach to some of gallopers on the day. Well done them. Less than one third of the starters(19 of 58) on the day had ever raced at Marburg previously. And […]
Tim Vince to Stand For Election to the Auckland Trotting Club Board? – A Man of His Undoubted Talents With Dope Would Be Much Better Served Running the RIB
Tim Vince with one of his favorite doped to the eyeballs pacers We are pretty sure this is a gee-up so we will treat it with the contempt it deserves, but mail from an anonymous tipster in the South Island is that Tim ‘Stonefish’ Vince – a founding member of the uber successful Hong Kong […]
