Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
My mate Greg Stanton was the heavyweight boxing champion of Australia in his prime. He went on to coach a host of Australian champions after that. In between he won quite a few trot races as a trainer. And achieved the great Australian dream of owning a pub. The one thing that no-one ever expected […]
What can you say about next month’s Mike Tyson v Jake Paul promotion? This not a fight, it’s a farce. Tyson’s no longer the Iron Mike that hordes of ignorant people believe he still is, the marauding beast of a man with the brute strength of a buffalo and the sublime skills of Sugar Ray […]
Tim Tszyu’s thrashing at the hand of the unbeaten Russian fighter Bakhram Murtazaliev yesterday in Orlando was terrible to watch. Tszyu was totally outgunned by the Russian from the get go, with Murtazaliev throwing almost twice the number of punches and knocking him down 3 times, which would have been 4 had his handlers not […]
Jockeys Noel Callow and Jai Williams exchanged harsh words after they crossed the line at the end of race 6 at the Gold Coast on Saturday arvo, and for good reason too, at least from Williams perspective. He was on the second favorite in the Freedman colors made famous by Mummify. It’s name was Flag […]
Footy writer Paul Kent was clearly the aggressor in this altercation in Rozelle on Saturday night. He was the one who was mouthing off, he was the one who wouldn’t keep walking, and he was the one who pushed past the bouncer and chased after the other party, and he is the one who threw […]
Hi mate What a great form grab re Merlin tonight. You predicted the race as if you wrote the script. Congrats my friend. What a horse who knows how to win ,and win he did. Unfortunately here on Jontiem Beach in Thailand yourTAB, Sportsbet, Ladbrokes, etc account is blocked by the Thai government. However a […]
So Robbie Waterhouse’s great-great-great grandson Thomas Jr fought Flash Bourke about a century before the infamous bookie married to Gai was born did he? Apparently so according to the article that Robbie proudly posted on Twitter yesterday. It’s often been said that the Waterhouse’s are freaks of nature. Now it appears that it’s been proven. […]
Interesting comments from Bert. Both jockeys were there with their boyfriends. And only rider McCann was attended to by ambulance. She had concussion tests completed before being unable to ride. Jockey Townsend rode in the subsequent race and wasn’t stood down until race 7. False news. Artie from Aramac Editor’s note We weren’t there so […]
There was a bit more to the biff between jockeys McCann and Townsend than the trivial interference. More a man problem. And stood down because of concussion? I don’t think so. Both riders were stood down so that they didn’t kill each other in the subsequent races. The police are involved. Charges are likely to […]
Watch the rider of the grey horse Savannah McCann chop out the one in the red, Tessa Townsend in race 3 at Longreach today. This annoying but seemingly innocuous incident seems to have started World War III. They reckon they needed the Fred Brophy tent out there at the birthplace of QANTAS after it erupted […]
