Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The great QLD bush sprinter Fab’s Cowboy is making his first attempt at cracking the half century of wins today in the Country Stampede qualifier at Gladstone. He is going to have to carry 65.5kg and give every horse in the field an incredible 10.5 kilograms over the 1194m on the sand to do it. […]
As you might have realised, for various reasons I have a bit of a thing for the racing rules. It is weird interest I know, but if people are going to use rules against you then you need to know and understand them better than the people, otherwise they are going to beat you up. […]

Kingston Town has won this race, and a host of other champions […]
