Racehorse Name of the Day
How would you be being a race caller trying to call this horse in a close finish? No no no no no no no no!
David Fowler Kicks Off the Day by Committing the Callers Cardinal Sin
Brisbane race caller David Fowler called the winner of the first at Doomben Celtic Sun throughout the entire race. The horse’s name is actually Celtic Sin. Oops. The Rooster has committed the caller’s cardinal sin. A great start to the day for him.
The Great Man Returns
Most QLD race fans favorite caller Josh Fleming will return to the broadcast box this year to call the Birdsville Cup carnival, and we join with everyone else in welcoming him back. Not only is Josh a great race caller, but he is a passionate promoter of the sport and an all round good guy […]
Its Says Something About the State Harness Racing That Everyone Thinks This is Funny – But It’s the Sport and the QRIC They Are Laughing At You Know
I don’t know whether Regan Todd is the first one to take the piss about him “training” Hesitate, or whether he is deluded, but the rest of the world knows that Hesitate was only transferred into his name so that Luke McCarthy could drive Todd’s superstar Marketplace in the Rising Sun. The ruse didn’t quite […]
No, No, No David!
Oh dear. David Fowler has just called the inside horse Ka Bling the winner of the Battle of the Bush final. It didn’t win it. The outside horse Rollup did, by about a head. A longish one too. I guess the best you can say is that at least caller Fowler is consistent. Editor’s Note […]
Perhaps He Is In The Wrong Trade
The race caller at Tambo on Saturday declared Coronation Day on the inside the winner of race 1. It wasn’t. The outside won. Oh well, it was a close photo so you can forgive the man with the specs his mistake. Or you could if that was all if he had got wrong, but it […]

If you were listening on the radio you would have sworn that the the second at Doomben was a one horse race. After all the caller David Fowler only called one horse over the final furlong, Arabian Rose. Those who had each way or exotic bets didn’t have a clue where their runners were, because […]
It Might Be Time To Hang Up the Binoculars and Change the Guard
Race caller Ross Stanley has been a wonderful servant to country racing, particularly at the tracks up around Wondai’s Mate country where he has broadcast the races for a number of years. All good things must come to end though, and after listening to Ross’s calls at Burrandowan on the weekend, particularly in the Cup, […]
Thank God For Darren McCaulay – Even if It’s Not Opportunistic
We give Feathers Fower a hard time for getting photo finishes wrong, but at least he calls the right horses in the finish, even if he gets the result wrong. Perth race caller Darren McCauley calls horses who aren’t even there. Watch the finish of the last in Perth today. McCauley calls Opportunistic the winner, […]
My Daughter Sends the Bantam a Salient Message – It Says Kiss My Arse
Families stick together. And stick up for their own. David Fowler’s dad sends me emails under false names arking up on behalf of his son. Good on him too. My daughter stands up for her dad too. Solidarity. She says the Bantam can go and kiss her ass. He won’t of course. She and her […]
