The NSW Racing Minister wants the CEO of Greyhound Racing NSW Rob McCaulay sacked, but he can’t do it himself because underthe Greyhound Racing Act he doesn’t have the power.

Soon to be sacked GRNSW Chairman Adam Casselden SC Ray Hadley is one of Australia’s most prominent broadcasters. He recently won his ratings slot for the 157th consecutive survey. He’s also one of the biggest cheerleaders of greyhound racing. He fought hard to overturn Premier Mike Baird’s ban in NSW. Which is why the revelations […]

Deep Tempest is a smart David Van Dyke trained galloper with a record of 4 wins from its 11 starts. He certainly wasn’t the horse that racecaller David Fowler called looming up to win race 1 the Maiden at Eagle Farm this afternoon. That was Deep Vega, as the Rooster finally woke up and realised […]
Our Brisbane correspondent sent us this report of the J. Taylor appeal hearing today …. Introductions. Piece of paper handed to chairman. Chairman sets aside stewards decision and replaced with a Not Guilty verdict. Before a word of evidence is even heard. Thank you linesmen, thank you ball boys. J Murdoch KC wins by first-round […]
