Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The Cloncurry & DRC non-Tab race meeting scheduled for Saturday September 10 has been rescheduled to be conducted at Mount Isa due to the state of the track. A QRIC Stewards inspection of the Cloncurry racetrack (also attended by 2 senior jockeys) on raceday morning found a number of small stones remaining on parts of […]
Moods at the Moranbah Workers Club on Friday arvo, completing his preparations for the big one https://www.facebook.com/moranbahraceclub/videos/5951508254860334 We told you last night about trot trainer D. Graham and co flying over to Vegas a couple of weeks ago to see Shania Twain live in Vegas, but we forgot to tell you about the bloke who […]
What the hell happened in the Caduceus Classic at Melton last night? Nathan Jack drove Copy That like an absolute lunatic, and got it beaten. He got Mark Pitt and Honolua Bay done over too. Kate Gath did it to herself. This was one weird race. Here is how it rolled. N. Jack comes out […]
If Charlie and his boys and their kids go down in a plane crash it’s a tragedy. Not just for them and their family. For the world. Take them out of the picture, and Andrew becomes King. He’d take it too, and think that we wanted him. Buckingham Palace would probably get moved to Jeffrey […]
The Group 1 J.J. Atkins – formerly the T.J. Smith, and before that the Castlemaine – is Queensland’s pre-eminent 2YO race.

Wasn’t the Makybe Diva at Flemington this arvo an absolute ripper of a race? Tim Clark rode Alligator Blood an absolute treat in the early and middle stages, leading and then setting a beautiful tempo, not too fast, not too slow, just right. Then at the 400 he tried to pinch it by digging his […]
ALBION PARK Race 3 no 7 – Ronaldo Is a much better pacer than his recent form looks. Was going to win mid-week for all money until he was interfered with in a fall. The draw is not ideal but he comes into 5 with the scratchings so it’s not as bad as it looks. […]
About 4 months ago we tipped you into a young 2-year-old Kiwi gelding that we declared was going to win the Caulfield Guineas. Sharp ‘N’ Smart is its name. He resumes today in a 1400m race at an obscure NZ track called Ruakaka. The mail is that he will win. After that starts the debate. […]
