Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
During an interview with Racenet this week James Cummings was asked where Anamoe fits among the topliners that he had trained. “I guess I haven’t had a chance to weigh those things up yet,” Cummings said. “But I don’t enjoy comparing horses as I only have one Anamoe, I only had one Bivouac.” Bivouac? Sure […]
All the familiar figures – dressed as always in black – were at St Therese’s Church in middle class Essendon when they buried crime boss, Lewis Moran, the 23rd victim of Melbourne’s latest gangland war. I live nearby and regularly share a beer at the Cornish Arms Hotel, 100 metres down Sydney Road from where […]
Imbibition causes swelling of seeds and results in the breaking of testa. Imbibition is the initial step in seed germination. The water moves into ovules which are ripening into seeds by imbibition.

Believe it or not, these are the official promotional logos for Racing and Wagering Western Australia’s brand new triple code slot races run on the same weekend brainstorm.

Alenquer is not a miler, and the All Star was run on a rock […]
We have a heard a lot this week about the clash of the titans Anamoe and Dubai Honour in Saturday’s Queen Elizabeth Stakes. Most people would have you believe that it’s a 2 horse race. Don’t be fooled by these fools, for it’s not. The runner from the land of the rising sun is a […]
Bramble Bay. Beautiful isn’t it? As pretty as Hiroshima a week after they dropped the bomb. Yesterday we expressed our bemusement about a $20 into $7.50 early plunge on a runner in the 2nd race at Toowoomba last night. Bramble Bay was the horse’s name. It had raced 14 times without even running a place. […]
