Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Queensland’s most suspended apprentice jockey Dan McGillivray got done again for careless riding yesterday at Doomben. He’d only been back from his most recent holiday for the same offence for 4 days. This bloke refuses to learn. I don’t know whether he is incapable of understanding the prime importance of riding safely to keep other […]
Watch the horse on the inside in the red behind the leader. See what jockey John Rudd does? He sits up early. It costs his mount 4th place. Rudd copped a 14-day suspension. He was a bit stiff I reckon. Watch it again in slow motion. What the hell was that white post doing positioned […]
This is Uncle Sam’s manor. Or it used to be, until he lost the farm. Bid with confidence. Motivated seller, needs the cash. Good lawyers don’t come cheap. Especially the silks. Hey it’s only a house. Jesus was born in a barn. The lowest ebb is the turn of the tide.

For reasons unexplained the photo finish camera failed in the 2nd race at Eugowra on Sunday. As a result the Stewards were forced to declare a result from off the video replay. They declared a dead-heat for second. They got it wrong. There is no way on earth that the inside horse went across the […]
QLD apprentice Jade Metcalfe turned up a wee bit early in the 3rd at Kilcoy yesteday. A whole lap too early to be precise. The kid missed the fact that the race was a 1900m affair, not an 800m scamper, so when she saw the winning post she went for home, only to find out […]
