Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
If each of the emergencies in Eureka are scratched at their current prices – including the $3.90 from what very clearly appears to be a fake plunge on Tims a Trooper – the TAB fixed price deductions will total 26c in the dollar. Here is what it will do to the betting market. Captain Hammerhead […]
Every single horse bar one in the Eureka is bred from a US sire who raced in North America its whole life. The one that isn’t is by Tintin In America, a Kiwi bred who raced in Aotearoa for all but 2 of its 35 lifetime starts. In the race that is supposed to Make […]
Just hours before the return of one of their stable stars, top Aussie trainers Emma Stewart and Clayton Tonkin have shocked the harness industry. In coming months, the champion training team will branch into thoroughbred pre-training and scale back the size of their huge harness operation. Tonkin confirmed the plan while talking about the return […]
The betting plunge on the TAB on Tims a Trooper in the Eureka from $51 into $3.90 is nothing but a fictitious scam on behalf of the TAB to rob any poor punter who bets on anything in the race from here until the emergencies are withdrawn. I would be prepared to put a million […]
Tims a Trooper is an emergency in The Eureka. He’s the stablemate of the favourite Leap To Fame. In the past 2 hours he has been the medium of what looks to be the greatest plunge in Australian harness racing history. Tim has firmed from $51 into $3.90 on TAB fixed price to win the […]

The trainer at the centre of this snowstorm is Phil Bobic, an upstanding young form equestrian champion turned highly respected pre-training expert and hobby racehorse trainer out on the Downs. Phil is the most unlikely bloke you would ever expect to be stuck in the middle of a cocaine scandal, and the bad swabs thrown […]
The old Tramway workshop at Randwick, which the race is named after Chris Waller mare Olentia is the red hot $2.25 favourite to win the Tramway at Rosehill on Saturday, but it’s a totally crazy price, and as good was she is, I very much doubt that Waller’s little star girl can knock off the […]
So how does the Eureka roll from the start? The Lost Storm leads. Some people declare that he has got no gate speed, but that’s because they are talking through their arse. Although he has never really been called on to use it, there is no doubt at all that with the amazing high speed […]
