Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
You have never seen a beaten horse in your life try as hard as Kingman did to beat Leap To Fame down the straight at Cranbourne last night in the Cup. Luke McCarthy’s great pacer gave it everything he had, and more. Every sinew in his body was stretched as far they could extend without […]
I’m not sure. Neither was the bloke it knocked out. Ouch.
If you are going to try and king hit a restaurant worker, it’s best not to choose one who is a trained boxer, even if they are smaller than you. It’s a very bad mistake. As this bloke found out. He got his just dessert. Sucked in.
Jett Turnbull (pictured) is only 17 years old, but even at this early stage of his career the record setting junior driver appears to have some of his more senior rivals rattled. Mat Rue is one. At Dubbo on Friday night Rue drove three favorites or 2nd favorites in a row in races 4-6 against […]
King Callow was a bit ambitious taking Kyle Wilson-Taylor on in the jockeys room at Doomben yesterday. He was giving away 25 years, and plus KWT is a real tough rooster and he can fight. Hospital is the only place he was ever going to go in this bout, and that’s how it ended up […]

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 […]
