Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A number of my mates vouched opinions that I had interpreted Richard Callendar’s recent cryptic tip about a Melbourne jockey moving to Sydney incorrectly. I can now say that I did not. It was indeed Brett Prebble. Confession. I didn’t have a clue who Richie was talking about. I just worked out the riddle he […]
Sicario’s average mile rate over his past 10 starts is is 1.57.0. Three of races that time is calculated on run were over the mile. All but one of the other seven races were at distances of 2240m or below, with the but one being the ID22 Consolation over 2570m. Last night in the 2650m […]
