Kicking the Victim – Trot Style
Do you know what’s bad and sad about harness racing? There is trench mentality about protecting your own. The Trot industry is like a big Catholic family. They fight like shit inside the walls, but touch one you touch all, and no-one ever gives anyone else up. No-one likes a dog, but some things are […]
Why Does Anyone Bet on the Adelaide Trots Any More?
I am sure that this gallop at the start by the $1.20 favourite Take My Wallet in the 2nd race at Globe Derby on Monday was nt a piss take by the connections. Plain bad luck it was, I’m sure. Just as I am sure that the horse coming to the Aaron Bain stable with […]
Kick Me Kid
Comment or Message Have a look at Race 7 from Newcastle yesterday. The winner went inside multiple pegs and still kept the race. A reader sent this to me yesterday, so I decided to have a look. With the greatest of the respect to the person, I didn’t see the winner run over […]
Some Days are Diamonds, Some Days Are Stones – And Some Days Are Just Like Dreams
I know a bloke who nailed the Pick 6 on today’s New Zealand Cup meeting. It paid $450 000. He didn’t get it all, but he got plenty. Whoever said that punting was for losers? If you meet a bloke named (XXXXX) at a bar at Christchurch tonight don’t buy him a drink. He can […]

The Happiest Man in the World – And Why Wouldn’t He Be?
Champion pacer. Brilliant galloper. Gorgeous wife. Great life. Lovely family. And the New Zealand Trotting Cup. It doesn’t bet any better than this. Or happen to nicer people. Good on you Meg and Merv. You deserve it.
Merv Wins the Cup!
At 8.30 this morning our time Merv Butterworth rang me as he was walking onto the Addington track. I was going to there too, but I lost my passport. Anyone seen it anywhere? This is what Merv said. He was right. Good on you mate. You bloody beauty! PS – they was a typo. It […]
The Man Who Almost Choked a Woman to Death Pops Up Again – Sticking a Tube Down a Horses Throat on Cup Day
About 6 weeks ago the disgraced and disgraceful drug dealer and woman beater Matthew Anderson, aka Matthew Vanderklay – the very close friend and Bali holiday companion of Sydney based harness racing identity Jack ‘Turbo’ Trainer – applied for his license back. His supporters at the top level of Harness Racing New Zealand voted to […]
