Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I am seriously worried about Jason Bonnington’s mental health. And believe that he should be subjected to random alcohol and drug testing at work. It’s for his own good. All to often we watch people fall cliffs and only move to pick them up after they have crashed. We need to have a more proactive […]
Good morning My name is Archie Butterfly and I author the racing website peterprofit.com As you are aware, I wrote the story about the deaths of the three Telfer trained/Stonewall Stud owned pacers that died on the track in the space of just months. I also wrote about a 4th incident involving a horse from the same […]
These Hayes boys are Adelaide bred, which makes a man lack confidence, so when Hayes J.D. says he ‘thinks’ Mr Brightside can win the Underwood, just ignore him. Anyone who stands up to sing God Save the Queen and wears a top hat at Ascot lacks confidence, it’s clear. Any Australian who believes in themselves […]
Excuse my language, but how the fuck can you race a horse just two weeks after it has suffered from a lung infection? It’s insane. What are they going to treat with to get it back so soon? I will tell you. Airway openers. They don’t fix the damage caused by the infection, but they […]

https://www.abc.net.au/7.30/inside-penrith%E2%80%99s-multi-million-dollar-stadium/14061994 The link above takes you to a real interesting ABC program about the battle to save the Penrith trots from being taken over by the Government to build a new stadium for the Panthers. That’s just a smokescreen of course. What this is really about is the Government taking the trots land to give […]
There are a few things to report at the APG since the company’s spectacularly unsuccessful attempt to sue me in the Federal Court a few months ago. The two things are unrelated of course. A client services and accounts manager has been employed in the shape of Anthony Essex, who was previously an analyst at […]
If I was 80 years old and still married to Meg I’d be smiling too Today is Merv Butterworth’s 80th birthday. In a run true to form he was half-cut before the guests arrived for the party. A rollicking night of joy and laughter lies ahead. He richly deserves it too. Happy Melbourne Merv. May […]
Ben Dorries is the intellectual equivalent of the black hole. A vacuum that reflects no light. Dorries claimed on David Fowler’s radio program yesterday that – and I quote – “we’ve effectively got a one club model in Queensland with the BRC controlling the two major tracks in Brisbane, Eagle Farm and Doomben”. What an […]
