Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Now I am relating this second hand because I wasn’t watching Trots TV. (I would have been but I was out, on most important business). So this is a constructed recreation of what 3 independent parties have told me. At the conclusion of the last race, reporter Jason Bonnington asks the driver of the winner […]
Well now, finally, everyone knows. I went out on a limb 16 months ago and – at the huge risk of being sued and financially destroyed – I declared that Jason Grimson was a dirty low down drug cheat, and a thief, and that he should be thrown out of racing forever. A lot of […]
BENDIGO Race 5 no 8 – Ollivici The inside of the 2nd row draw makes it tough, but the rising start of the Victorian trotting ranks is good enough to overcome it. The ideal scenario is that I’m Ready Jet holds and he lands on the leaders back, but if he ends up 3 fence […]
A couple of days ago we tipped you to get on the crock Sicario when it hit the track in Jumping Jason Grimson’s colours. I hope you were quick, because the money has come early and the money has come hard. We’re still 18 hours from start time in the Group 2 Bendigo Cup, and […]

Can anyone on earth tell me why Harness Racing Australia CEO Andrew Kelly gets paid a total salary package of almost half a million dollars a year? What does he actually do? I know that that Kelly sells slot race concepts to already wealthy breeders. And that he upsets breeders by picking their pockets of […]
God almighty. Wouldn’t you love to buy a piece of this filly that’s for sale at the Tasmanian standardbred yearling sales in March? Her dam never raced. Neither did her grand-dam, great grand-dam, great great grand-dam, or great great grand-dam. Five generations of mares and not a single one ever started in a race. The […]
Keith from QLD chimes in fresh from a Xmas spell up fishing off the Cape. He’s not real happy with Gaita. I don’t normally watch Globe Derby trots but I was bored and had Sky on yesterday so I did, and I saw what in my opinion was good ol’ Gaita trying a bit too […]
