Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Dear Peter Profit Yes Perth race caller Darren McCaulay made a rare error and called the wrong horse over the line in the Railway. But he then did what David Fowler would never do… apologised. Profusely, about a dozen times. Apologised to connections, apologised to punters, and then, when he threw to the mounting yard, […]
If you are going to make a mistake and call the wrong horse the winner, then the last race you would want to do it in is the biggest Group 1 of the year. You have to feel sorry for Darren McCaulay then don’t you? He got it all wrong in the Group 1 Railway […]
South Australian race caller Tim Edwards should give up on going the early crow. He’s not very good at it. Earlier in the week he stopped Our Spitfire when he called it home prematurely in the race below. Then last night he did it to Exclusive. “Showsomejoy can’t get it!” Edwards cried. It did. Early […]
Now we’ve got an absolute fruit loop on the track. Someone get rid of him. I’ll get him myself! – Albion Park race caller If ever there was a case to make for live baiting it’s made by this imbecile who ran shirtless down the straight during race 8 at Albion Park last night. Not only […]
Over the past few months we have highlighted a number of issues with Terry Bailey’s race calling. All trains stop at the same station. The one called Retirement. Listen to this Barry Crocker from Terry the Saint last night at Pakenham and tell us you disagree.
Which horse do you think won the 1st race at Longchamp on Arc night here? If you said the outside like the caller did you’re wrong, not that anyone could blame you. The $1.50 shot got bloused on the line by it’s $61 stablemate. Punting is a real tough game only for the brave. Race […]
The caller at the WA country track at Moora on Saturday did a Bill Collins. “Rock of Kaha can’t win!” he cried. Famous last words, even if we did all agree with him when they were uttered. Watch this. Wow. I don’t think we’ll hang him for that one. PS – You can buy the […]
I often wonder what on earth Brisbane trot caller Chris Barsby is talking about when he breaks into a scream. This is one of the times. What the hell is a first over crush? It sounds like a sex act in an orgy, or an ice block, not something you’d find at the trots. I’m […]
I thought I was bad waking up sometimes and not knowing what day of the week it is, but race caller David Fowler puts me in the shade. Poor old David doesn’t know where he is. The races were at Ipswich yesterday son, not in Brisbane. If you don’t believe me try walking home. You […]
Eagle-eyed race watcher Coulthard from Coolum Beach has brought another T. Bailey stuff up to our attention, this one from race 5 at Sandown on Wednesday last week. Now I always thought that Smart Missile was a retired Group 2 winning sprinter who now stands at stud at Twin Hills, but according to the Saint […]
