Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Daniel Munce is an oxygen thief. An absolute piece of sh*t. How else can you possibly describe a 48 year old bloke who threatens to kill his elderly father, smears his own excrement all over a watchhouse wall, and then assaults a female police officer? By their deeds you shall know them, and his […]
When an ex-jockey who threatened to kill his father and smeared faeces across a police cell appeared in court via video link, he was part way through a workout, using a chair in the jail room. It was a bizarre beginning to the sentencing of 48-year-old Pie Creek resident and racing identity Daniel Steven Munce, […]
Darren Ebert is a licensed auctioneer. He is also a disqualified harness racing participant serving a 30 month disqualification for egregious animal welfare breaches which resulted in three horses being put down, one slowly starving to death, another hobbling around on three lets in extreme pain because Ebert refused the vet’s advice to send it […]
Past the halfway mark in the season and the national riders premiership table looks a lot different than it did in season 2024/25.

Last Friday jockeys Les Tilley and Graham Kliese were injured in a fall at Cluden Park. Just six days later at the same track the first 3 races on the card were run without an ambulance following the field around. What the hell? Safety first? It seems not.
In Queensland you have to have five acceptors to make a field. Race 1 at Townsville got there. Just. Georgie Holt put three in to make the numbers work. Then after Racing QLD declared it a race she scratched two. No doubt they will have a slight cough, or heat in the joint. The sort […]
It’s important you pay attention to this message right now. Take a moment to chill, breathe, and analyze it thoroughly. ‘Cause we’re about to discuss a deal between you and me, and I don’t play games. You don’t know anything about me but I know you very well and you must be thinking how, correct? […]
I love Crash Craddock. When I was a teenage kid I worked as a copy boy (fledging journalist) in the Sports Room of what was then Queensland’s Daily Sun. John Hartigan was the Editor, and an abrasive but hugely effective boor named Col Allan was his Chief of Staff. They both went on to become […]
Robert Craddock follow 2 min read March 5, 2026 – 4:00AM Midnight at the Albion Park trots is not the place to be when a fight breaks out – especially for someone like Kotoni Staggs.
