Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
More information has emerged about the scandal that’s erupting in regards to the disappearance of many millions of dollars deposited with lawyer John Adams in a first mortgage scheme, including all the money in the Victorian Bookmakers Association bet guarantee fund. It seems that the money was supposedly loaned out to homeowners who were short […]
We have written at length about the class advantage that the current crop of Kiwi fillies and mares has over the Australian female gallopers, and they proved it again yesterday with the wins of Prowess in the Crystal Mile and the imperious Imperatriz in the William Reid. I don’t know what makes these Kiwi gals […]
Just take a look at this drive by Brad Williamson on the favourite Perfect Potion at Wyndham a couple of weeks ago. You will never see as big a hook job if you live to be a hundred years old. Williamson has the fave perched beautifully 1 out and 2 back in the line, but […]
James McDonald What a world-class ride on the winner by J-Mac. An absolute pearler. This bloke is the best jockey in the nation bar none. Zac Purton Zac Purton isn’t. Hong Kong’s leading rider’s steer on Fangirl was an absolute shocker. Purton rode for luck and took the odds to nothing by running Waller’s star […]

The promotion offers a bonus of $100 000 to the connections of any horse who wins 3 of the 5 Cups run across the State […]
How has he not been charged by Police? The punch was much worse than I expected due to the appeal outcome. A lot of women around too, unbelievable that this happened on a racecourse. Pretty weak too as the victim was being held by another person. I wonder how he treats his horses if he […]
Country racing people out west are up in arms about the cancellation of the Isisford race meeting today and the abandonment of the last two races on the card at Charleville, and not without good cause. Our western correspondent Lou from Longreach explains the situation best. Cox Plate Day is one of those great race […]
While many are lauding the massive injection of liquidity resulting from the operation of the World Pool – which isn’t really, it’s a pool owned and operated by the Hong Kong Jockey Club – astute punters are questioning whether the large pools really value add to Australian racing or whether they detract.
