The 7-day flight path of jockey Daniel Moor JB Cummings famously used to have a rule that his stayers had to cover 10 000 meters in their lead up runs to get them fit and ready to win a Melbourne Cup. It worked. Bart won 13 of them. Based on the famous Cummings training method […]
How do you put a tote bet on this race 14 at the Q1 Lakeside dogs yesterday? Can anyone see a meeting code F on the ticket? If so, can we borrow your glasses?

Noel Callow did it tough for 12 months after the QLD Stewards booted him out of racing after his silly drunken antics in Darwin in the middle of last year. No-one is saying Callow was in the right for what he did, least of all himself, and to some degree he deserved what he got, […]
