Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Clayton Tonkin had three runners at Melton on Saturday night that started deep in the red. Each one the trio were regarded as being top class. All of them lost. Petracca won the Vicbred Super Series and the Victoria Derby last season. In the Derby it ran 53.98 seconds for the last half over 2760m. […]
Representatives from the Brisbane Racing Club attempted to argue that the construction was not causing the issue, which was rejected by the jockeys association. As all of the incidents have involved horses not from Brisbane, BRC officials raised the possibility of not allowing horses who have not raced at Eagle Farm to nominate in the […]

And so it continues. Look at these ones. Great kicker for a fixed price multi for those in the know who got on early aren’t they? The mail is that if you want to find the punter knocking off the odds you might want to look down south to Victoria or even Tasmania. Connections with […]
Race 1 – Ladbroke It! Qualifying Pace Dual Triad winner and last year’s SEQ Oaks champion Jewel Melody is an NR92 rated mare, which gives her 14 points on her next highest rated rival. Was a good run when posted working hard three and four wide in the consolation of the Rising Sun last week, […]
Kiwi trainer Mark Jones had to wait a while for it to happen, but with Tempo Warrior’s win tonight at Addington he has finally cracked the 800 career win mark. It’s well known that I am no big fan of Jones, but credit where credit due, 8oo wins is a great achievement and not many […]
