Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Colt Thirty One didn’t gallop off the mark. He broke into a skip after he had paced about three strides. The skip only lasted for about 10m, and then Grant Dixon got him straight down again. Putting him to the outside of the draw for that seems a bit rough. I suppose the Stewards are […]
Jesus, now I am being threatened by blokes with red hats, black shoes and Gucci bags. What next? Ballerina’s in pink tutus wielding nunchaku’s? All a man wants to do is go to the races and have a punt. He doesn’t need this sort of rubbish. I went to the front gate but the red […]
All Blacks flyhald Richie Mo’unga has just done a George Gregan in the opening match of the Rugby World Cup against France. He’s flown from nowhere at a million miles an hour and saved the most certain of French tries in the corner. It might not save the All Blacks here, but oh my it […]
Bookmaker and punter Nathan Snow has today been fined $18 000 by Racing NSW after being found guilty of 7 counts of misconduct under the rules in relation to betting activities related to confidential information that his wife Sally Snow obtained while in her role as head of trading at the NSW TAB and passed […]
This above is the Stewards report from Addington on the 1st of September. The Stewards were going to talk to driver Korbyn Newman about his whip use. They must have forgotten. He’s still waiting.

The new race, to be known as “The Lester”, would have slots available to Cranbourne trainers only and for horses trained […]
Dear Lawyer Gillette 19 days have elapsed since I requested further particulars from your client about their Concerns Notice you SLAPPed* on me in late July. You have not replied. Given that the Defamation Act – with which you appear to be unfamiliar – allows you a maximum of 14 days to provide these particulars […]
We haven’t heard boo from that Kiwi clown Mark Jones since we told him and his lawyer to take a march across the ditch and hope they don’t sink. I guess he’s too busy trainer winners. Jones did a Rogie yesterday and got a dual code double. Some horse he trains named Mr Photogenic – […]
The richest man in New Zealand harness racing Tim Vince – aka Our Sir Vincealot – has been in touch after someone told him about the story we wrote about him yesterday. He says he promises to buy a new shirt. The one at the top with Jughead on it. Is this bugger having a […]
The Butcher – Zaid Miller – is the bloke who was paying Tommy Berry for tips. Like Berry, Butch was put out for 12 months on a DQ. Both men appealed, and they both lost. However the Chairman of the Appeals Panel had some very strange things to say about Butch. I will quote them. […]
