Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The QLD Stewards are taking a close look at Dylan Turner’s ride on Bowrider in the Warwick Newmarket on the weekend. Is it any wonder why? Bowrider’s the horse in 2nd last place on the inside in the white sleeves as the replay rolls. It doesn’t look good from the side view. From the head […]
The word is that I am wrong about the Auckland Trotting Club collapsing into a heap. Something has happened that it is not only going to save Alexandra Park, but Pukekohe too. A household name in Australian harness racing will relocate to the City of Sails. Watches MacKinnon is going to come out of it […]
Queensland Racing Integrity Commission Stewards concluded an inquiry into Jockey Dylan Turner’s riding of BOWRIDER in the Scott Ellis Memorial/ Ranbuild Warwick Newmarket Benchmark 70 Handicap 1200m at the Warwick Turf Club meeting on Saturday 12th October 2024.

At the same time as the club’s income plunged by $8.7 million, its […]
A month ago there were only 8 horses pre-race swabbed at Eagle Farm on a 9-race Saturday metro card. Only the winners were post-race swabbed, a total of 17 swabs taken in all. It was appalling integrity management, something we had been critical of many times in our stories. The new Deputy in town agrees. Kim […]
As the caller said there are certainly some ways to get beaten in this punting game. And I have this amazing ability to find them all. This one above is yet another.
Rockhampton based gallops man Jared Wehlow made the headlines last week when he announced his retirement from the training game at the early age of just 37, telling Racing QLD reporter Jordan Gerrans at the time that he “planned to have a bit of family time and enjoy doing something different.” Well in an exclusive […]
There is a troubling rumor drifting across Queensland trot tracks about a looming betting scandal soon to break. We don’t have enough information to publish names, but things being mentioned are a high-profile owner, a driver who may or may not be competing in the Ultimate Drivers Championship, the punt, and $30 000. That’s all […]
