Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There is good reason that kiwi harness race drivers Blair Orange and Samantha Ottley won’t be competing at the Wyndham meeting on Sunday. The loved up pair are using the voucher the Orange man won for topping the Southern Driving list last year to take a well-deserved holiday together, or at least that’s how the […]
MELTON It’s a tough night down south on a Breeders Crown semi-final night where short priced Emma Stewart trained pacers dominate the card. Most of them will win too, but deep red sauce isn’t our flavour, so we will look a bit wider bar one. The one is Tough Tilly in the last. You can […]
Bugger, I forgot to give you today’s Addington trot tips for the last day of the carnival. Eight bets. Four wins. $1.50, $6.50, $7.50, $12.00. Beach Ball at $7.50 declared a good thing, with witnesses and documentary evidence to prove it. @27.50 collect per 8 unit outlay. You can do the maths. 3.5 times your […]
Now my great-great grandfather died for our country on the Western Front on Anzac Day 2018, a battle that many say won the war, so I am as patriotic as anyone in this beautiful wide brown land, and probably a whole lot more. After all, this direct line ancestor is one of the about 800 […]

So it was the beginning, so it ends. Outgoing Racing QLD CEO Brendan Parnell boasted on radio to Steve Hewlett this morning that he was up in Kumbia helping out the club with their race meeting because volunteers were a bit light on the ground. It’s a heart-warming story about a grass roots CEO who […]
Gary Woodham is a sexist, a lecher, a creep, and a person who should be sacked as HRNZ CEO immediately. Woodham’s conduct toward driver Elle Barron is unacceptable by any standard. It was uninvited, it was unwanted, and it was simply disgraceful. His desperate attempts to explain it away are even worse. These comments he […]
Your last pair of unbroken or smashed classes. An extra long pee. A weak stomach. The pee comes to an end. You give Mr Strong the final shake. And the glasses slip straight off you head and into the bowl. ” F**k, f*ck, f**k f*ck f**k f*ck!” you scream, loud enough enough that it can […]
Q. At what point are they turned on? A. BWCs allow authorised officers to collect audio and video recordings while working out in the field. Fieldwork includes situations such a routine stable/kennel inspections, animal welfare investigations, and race day Steward’s inquiries Comment: Do you notice that at no stage do QRIC ever answer it’s own […]
