Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Look at the size of this unmanned barge that mysteriously washed up empty near Badu Island in the Torres Strait yesterday. They reckon it got washed away from its mooring in Indonesia, and the wind and tide blew it there. Bullshit. Badu Island is thousands of kilometers from Indonesia, with coral reefs and islands in […]
I know they didn’t have a permit to protest, but FFS these people weren’t blockading thoroughfares or being violent, and they weren’t causing any trouble. They were just praying. Why the hell would the police attack them? For what cause? They weren’t the crazed Bondi psycho killers. These poor people are more like the victims […]
Happy Australia Day! Just a point on your discussions about the best generation of horses. I agree this a vintage batch – it is also a vintage batch of PEDs (Performance Enhancing Drugs). Given there is no real energy in keeping racing clean we may be seeing a very false set of good horses. If […]
ATC chairman Tim Hale told the club’s 11,000 members in a note in October that it was “solvent, operating normally, with strong cash reserves and is asset-rich”, backed by property “potentially worth billions”. “The club’s financial stability and operational capability are not in question,” he said at the time. https://www.smh.com.au/sport/racing/racing-nsw-sacks-board-of-australian-turf-club-appoints-administrator-20251215-p5nnqn.html ATC Chairman Tim Hale says […]

The scenes from Bondi Beach are just awful. Bodies are lying everywhere, innocent people having a day out at the beach now dead. Australia’s heart is broken. How could this happen here? From amid the terror a hero emerges. A brave, great Australian charges the murderous coward shooting innocent strangers. He put his life at […]
1 – LEAP TO FAME 76: 59-12-3 13 x G1 + The Race BT 1.48.3 The Ali of the pacing world. Simply the best. There is not much more I need to say. Larry says it all for me. 2 – DON HUGO 57: 22-11-8 3 x G1 + The Eureka BT 1.48.4 Wins in […]
Racing.com have posted the results of The Jericho Cup as the race being run over 4600m too. Funny thing is that I could have sworn that racing.com is owned by Racing Victoria, which employs the Stewards that decided to shorten the distance of the race. One hand at RV doesn’t seem to have a clue […]
We told you the story this morning about how the distance of yesterday’s tribute race to the ANZAC Light Horseman of WW1, The Jericho Cup, was shortened in distance from 4600m to 4415m less than an hour before the race due to safety issues with Tozer’s Crossing at the Warrnambool track. Well it seems that […]
Reports are coming in from The Jericho meeting at Warrnambool today, and they are scathing. The distance of the race was altered from 4600m – which is 200m less than the distance should be run over if it was it was true to the original anyway – to 4415m and moved on to the course […]
