Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There were only two races run at the Sunshine Coast yesterday before the weather called the meeting to a halt, but they were enough to showcase two lovely rides. Angela Jones put on a peach to win the first on I’m Heroic, a textbook classic. She sat, she steered out, she sprinted, she won. Perfect […]
If you have even in your life seen a trotter that should have been disqualified – or better put, must have been disqualified -from a win its the leader here in this race at Stawell. Driver Chris ‘the Puppet’ Alford should have his nickname changed to the Puppet Master, for after seeing this you’d have […]
I know the 7-year-old pacer King Kulafu well, as one of my mates used to own the pacer King Kulafu and another used to train it. The horse was a dog. It would pull, hang, gallop randomly during races, and turn it up in weak events that it was entitled to win. My mate gave […]
If you had backed the favorite The Hairdresser in the 6th at Rocky yesterday you have very good reason to be throwing chairs and kicking in walls, for it sure was something beaten. First the fave misses the kick by a couple of lengths and lands out the back, and I have to say that […]
I had a good bet on Mac Bon, the winner on protest of the last race at Newcastle yesterday. Even after watching the replay six times I am still not sure I should have collected. Mac Bon is the horse behind the leader as the side-on film rolls. You can’t see much there that would […]
Gemma Hewitt’s runner in race 4 at Albion Park yesterday Kerbang had been a pest to rival driver Alanah Richardson all race. It had been sitting behind Richardson in the run following her helmet, and at times looked like it wanted to eat it. Richardson had gently tried to stop Kerbang from annoying her by […]
What you see above is what appears on the TAB website and in their form guides for the feature race at Warrnambool on Tuesday. Ignore it, for its wrong in every respect. Major Share is not a 7-year-old, he is four. He is not by Sacred Falls out of Flighttime. Overshare is Major Share’s sire […]
Stood-down Albany Racing Club boss Mark Bayliss was yesterday fined after pleading guilty to a charge of attempting to gain a benefit for another by fraud. The target of the attempted fraud was Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA), the State’s principal racing authority. Mark Bayliss has reportedly agreed to resign from his position at […]
Ray Hadley has just announced that the State Govt has stepped in to block disgraced Albion Park CEO Scott Steele from returning to his role as leader of the Creek. Steele is terminated, effective immediately. The rumor is that on his recent soujurn to Addington he was casting around for a job. God help the […]
