Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Bold Medley Jujon is a pacer who has gone around the track seventy times in official races, so his form is very well exposed. The fastest winning time that he had ever run before today was 1.54. It’s fastest time ever was 1.52.6 which it ran a year ago in a race at Albion Park […]
Call me a cynic if you will, but I have a question. Why did Shane Graham take the horse in the blue to the outside of the leader rather than go inside it up the sprint lane? It wouldn’t have been to give the horse three back the fence Bronski Zulu a free passage through […]
A new-look summer carnival to be known as The Starlights is poised to provide a thrilling finish to the Queensland harness racing calendar. The summer carnival will feature four blockbuster nights at Redcliffe and Albion Park across November and December, with more than $1.7 million in prize money and bonuses on offer. Staged from November […]
I know there was probably nothing in it, and that she can’t help who she is related to or that her horse is a hard pulling mutt, but if you didn’t know these things like a lot of punters don’t, then gee Dannielle McMullen’s drive on the favorite Im Boo in race 5 at Albion […]
Fate Awaits started $1.35 from gate 1 in the tenth race at Albion Park last night. He got beaten. I blame Grant Dixon for that. Dixon drove the fave out hard from gate 2 with an average beginner inside it, but Final Deadline from out in the deep began faster, and one Fate Awaits reached […]
Chris Barsby must be on leave because last night we had Chook Fowler going back to the future and calling the Albion Park trots, and now we have Terry Spargo going even further back in time to call tonight’s meeting. The problem is that Spargo wasn’t calling them from the on-course broadcast box, but instead […]
Trent Lethaby and Taleah McMullen (pictured) A bit of excitement was injected into an otherwise quiet Thursday afternoon at the Creek yesterday when a stoush erupted between the connections of the beaten favorite Manifest The Billi (aka ‘pass the bong’) after the running of the first race. We weren’t there and don’t know anyone who […]
It’s Saturday night at the Creek, race seven. Angus Garrard is driving number 1 Sista Sammy NZ, the horse behind the leader with the white wheels. How many marker pegs does he run over or hit? I count at least five or six. He went inside 4 or 5 before that too (see pictures below). […]
Getting a long odds-on favorite beaten at Albion Park is easy. You don’t have to dope it, or tinker with the gear, or even pull it up. All you have to do is park it in the death. Outside of the leader without any cover. That will do it almost every time. Darrin went out […]
AHRR.66(e) A horse may be disqualified from a race or placed in a lower finishing position in a race if a horse races on the inside of a marker post or if its sulky or part thereof goes on the inside of a marker post How many engineers does it take to change a lightbulb? […]
