Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The $4.00 second favorite Leap To Fame is out of the Chariots of Fire. I don’t at this stage know how or why, but he’s gone. Keith From Queensland spotted it. He’s backed Catch a Wave at $14.00 on VicTAB, and $15 on Tabtouch. The fools haven’t realised that it’s out. It is $4.00 with […]
Brown Rice with some rather good riders that he trained, back in the days when he was still young and beautiful Within literally minutes of publishing our exclusive story breaking the news of RJW Johnson’s retirement from the fitness and weight reduction for jockeys game we began getting deluged with messages from tearful readers who […]
These are the clouds swirling above the Gold Coast race track this morning. Thursday’s rescheduled Magic Millions is under a huge cloud. Pardon the pun. The unmitigated disaster still has a long way to way to run. Will they race the Millions in 3 days time? You’ve be a brave punter to back Yes.
Frank Pullicino is down on the papers as the trainer of nine horses who were supposed to run at today’s meeting at Globe Derby. He’s not.

Harry has really stuffed this whole anti-royal thing up. He was going alright at first, but he just didn’t know where to stop. I think it’s because he’s a very damaged man, in the post traumatic stress disorder sense of the word. The poor bastard lost his mum when he was little, and then watched […]
