Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The crazily over the odds TAB opening fixed prices on the trots are happening in Victoria too. Here are some examples from last night at Kilmore. Race 2 The Iron Duke had won 2 of its past 4 starts and run 3rd at another. It was unlucky when beaten from a bad draw last time […]
This happened at Killarney in Ireland the other night. How cruel is the punting life? Let me count the ways ….
The bloke in the video is Robert Walters, the bloke who is Ben Yole’s henchman. Isn’t he a nice sort of chap? Just the type you’d love to see holding a license. Or not, as the case may be.

Is that the stood-down Albion Park CEO Scott Steele who is appearing in the QLD District Court tomorrow for an umpteenth mention of his rape and sexual assault charges? We don’t know. What we do know is that if it is, then Steele’s charges have been separated and will be heard as two different mattters, […]
David Fowler made a bold declaration on radio this week that Leap To Fame was not yet a champion. A ‘potential champion’ Fowler called Kevin Seymour AM’s great pacer.
