Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I refer again to the blood spinning promotion presented by Greg O’Conner on NZRB’s TV racing channel (‘Trackside’) on 15 May 2019 (Mick Guerin stated that this report by Mr O’Conner was investigative journalism – but to my ears it was far from investigative, and was self-promoting, laced with leading questions, each leading toward the […]
“Great” word cyclist Lance Armstrong eventually admitted his successes were contributed to blood doping – spun blood enhanced with EPO pre spinning, then injected back intravenously in race week. His interviews with Oprah were eye-openers for all involved in policing sports. See these ‘confession’ videos here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jtDH-10m2s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WfjbAM9rDzo And here is Lance Armstrong in 2018/2019…a […]
Let’s look at the NZ blood spinning/spun blood injectabales practice from a positon of logic. Ask, why would one do it, given the relatively high cost of doing it – it being said on Trackside to be $850 +gst per spinning, and additional vet cost to take the blood, costs to transport it to Christchurch, […]

The word out of Gawler is that prominent harness racing identity and unlicensed syndicator Aaron Bain – the man who deceptively claims to have more owners in his stable than exist in the entire trot industry in South Australia – has been spotted down at thoroughbred trainer Gary Searle’s stables getting the hands on experience […]
This was one of Ben Yole’s two winners at Hobart last night. Aaron Bain is the leading light of the South Australian harness racing scene, which shows how bad the industry is going. We’ve written heaps about him – read it here – and soon we will write more about the rort with the Gawler […]
Ben Yole had 52 of the 84 starters in the eight races run at Hobart last night. He won just 2 of them. In one of them he trained 5 of the 9 runners, in the other he trained 9 of 11. Yole managed to lose two races in which he had 9 of the […]
Emilio Rosati is probably the third richest owner in harness racing, behind Clive Palmer and Kevin Seymour A.M. If he is not, then the man who names all his horses Stride is certainly in the top five. Which begs the question. Why does a horse owner that has personal wealth in the tens and probably […]
The 8th race at the Hobart trots last night was a boatie. In fact it was one of the greatest set-up jobs that you have ever seen. Ben Yole trained 8 of the 11 starters in the race. His sole objective – and that of his principal henchman Conor Crook, Troy McDonald and now Gareth […]
There were 9 races on the card at the Penrith trots last night. Harness Racing NSW conducted pre-race blood tests in 8 of them. The average price of the pacers swabbed was over $20. Two of the horses tested started at $43.60 and $82.10. Now that’s real clever isn’t it? Troy Williams well backed winner […]
