Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
If you are going to make a mistake and call the wrong horse the winner, then the last race you would want to do it in is the biggest Group 1 of the year. You have to feel sorry for Darren McCaulay then don’t you? He got it all wrong in the Group 1 Railway […]
The Wolf Signs Divided Open Pace at Albion Park doesn’t sound like much, but it’s a really really interesting little pace, mainly because it acts as a litmus test about whether any trainer can get a horse going again after Jason Grimson has had it and it has left his care. Many have tried and […]
HARNESS Racing New South Wales advises that the licences of Neville Hargraves and Paul Sapio have been suspended pursuant to Australian Harness Racing Rule (AHRR) 183 after Stewards commenced an investigation into a report received that WHYIMAN had been stomach tubed or attempted to be stomach tubed prior to its engagement enroute to the Menangle […]
Everyone’s favorite North QLD jockey and successful self-represented litigant Nathan ‘Grubby’ Day didn’t have a very good one at the Cairns races yesterday. You never do when you cop two suspensions in the same race within the space of half a furlong. Grubby was on the leader. He gave poor old Ryan Wiggins on the […]

Was that a slimmed down, clean shaven Kobie O’Brien from KO Racing in his new career as a fashion model down at Bong Bong promoting the picnic races today? Or does he just have a doppelganger? Maybe they were twins separated at birth. Who knows? All I know is that Arancione won the Cup. I […]
Chris Svanosio suddenly became very disinterested in driving when he realised that Highpoint had no chance of winning or running a place in race 7 at Melton last night. Me thinks he might have been more interested in dropping a ratings point. If that was his aim he succeeded. At the expense of course of […]
These are the trees that cost Mr Seymour’s team $43 000 for cutting down with the wrong permit. I wouldn’t pay 2 cents for them myself. They’re ugly bloody things. But so is what comes next. Now you see them. Now you don’t.
Major Mal is a 7-year-old pace who until tonight hadn’t won a race in its past 39 starts, with his winless drought extending for almost two years. That’s because Mal wasn’t trained by the Miracle Maker, our good mate Seaton Grima. He is now, and the drought’s over. Super Seaton had only had him for […]
