Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
If you are not watching the fight wait until you see the fighters coming out to enter the ring on the news tonight. They are dressed like they are going to a fairy dress ball. This isn’t a fight. It’s a freak show!
The all conquering Emma Steward stable had 14 runners across five Group races for 2 and 3-year-old pacers run at Bendigo last night. Fiver were in the Victorian Oaks. They finished 1-2-3-5-7. Four were in the Derby. They ran 1-3-4-11. Three were in the 2YO Home Grown Classic for fillies. They finished 1-2-3. The remaining […]
Cheryl Rogers trained the winner of the QTIS maiden at Gayndah yesterday aboard a hitherto very slow horse named Twogoboom, which had been bashing around tracks like Gympie, Gladstone and Talwood for 30 starts without saluting the judge, and had only been placed four times, but turned its form on its head. It was a […]
What did we learn from the Caulfield Guineas yesterday? Heaps. Anamoe is a great horse. This bloke sat three-wide the trip, admittedly with cover, but out wide nevertheless. He did this in a race run at a pace that was resulted in a time that was only 0.72 seconds outside of Fields of Omagh’s fifteen-year-old track […]
The first time Tyson Fury fought Deontay Wilder he somehow pulled a miracle out of the hat by getting up within 10 seconds after this. Fury was as lead and fit as he can ever get in that fight. He is coming into this one older, overweight and nowhere near as fit. Wilder’s punch is […]

Racing NSW’s website is not real user friendly. It is totally overloaded with information on the front page, the design conjures up visions of the year T-Rex beat Stegosaurus in the Cup, and the whole thing is as clunky as hell. But at least it provides the info a punter wants and needs, and does […]
I wonder what David Beirne and his bevy of gurus in charge of trading promotions TAB thought they were going to achieve by paying out early on Zaaki in the Cox Plate a fortnight ago, other than to make themselves look like fools? Will the shareholders sue them for all the dough they paid out […]
We have received the sad news that highly talented jockey in hiatus Michael Murphy’s father has recently passed away. Our sincere condolences go to Michael and his family at this difficult time. Peace.
I’m Spiderman. Maggie and I are off to Hamilton Island for the week with the winnings. I hope Bonno has left enough in the kick to pay the rent. It’s cold at night down there at night in the parks of Melbourne I am told. Race 1 – Struve SECOND An absolute tragedy beaten. If […]
