Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
The increasingly popular among young licensees harness training hub at Woodend Beach just north of Christchurch has rapidly become the heartland of illegal and highly dangerous horse doping.

The Chairman of Racing Victoria Brian Kruger has declared war on Peter V’Landys. It is the greatest misjudgement since Hitler decided to fight the war on two fronts by taking on Stalin. Kruger has laid down the law. Either PVL comes to the party, or NSW gets frozen out. In Kruger’s fantasy being frozen outs […]
Brian Kruger is talking tough about hauling Peter V’Landys into line. Brian has something up his sleeve. Brian thinks its a winner.

Some men understand what it is to be Australian. That’s why in times of crisis they put women and children first. I don’t know who this poor man that died is, but he will forever be remembered as a hero, and should be honoured as such. He’s my hero. Daryl Maguire would have let the […]
Should what happens on the sporting field and in a war zone stay on the sporting field or battlefield? Jeff Kennett, former Victorian Premier and self-appointed apologist for murder It’s just like being on a football team, you don’t let your mates down, you go as hard as you can until the game’s won.
