Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
I have long been on the record as saying that Richard Bell is the greatest race caller in Australia, and despite the events of last night I stand by that judgement. Bell, alongside Queensland’s Chris Barsby, is also the most accurate judge of photo finishes in the land, and it’s only once in a blue […]
Marten’s Pride was backed from $71 into $19 in the 2nd race at Globe Derby on Monday. Driver Dean Girardi left it very late. Caller Jim Jacques thought he’d missed. Jimmy jammed it up. He was wrong. Praise the lord say the punters.
This is how the Ellerslie caller just described the close photo finish in the Rich Hill mile. What the hell does that mean? Is this sort of description really appropriate on a public broadcast? Give yourself an upper cut caller.
Listen to what caller Craig Easy says about the winner as they came past the post. The cheat’s lane? Mmm.
https://twitter.com/i/status/1467574377516613636 The mail is very, very strong that Brisbane race caller Josh Fleming is not vaccinated against COVID-19 and refuses to be. It is clear from her Facebook postings that Fleming’s wife Gabrielle is stridently anti-vax, regarding the compulsory nature of the requirement as akin to totalitarianism or nazism. I am not quite sure how […]
Everyone’s favourite race caller Brett Davis from Adelaide is the opposite George of Bill Collins. Bill was the accurate one. Brett Davis is the inaccurate, as he demonstrated again yesterday in race 8 at Morphetville. It was pretty obvious that the outside had won. Davis called the inside the winner. Of course. At least he’s […]
The call in Japanese is a hoot!! Sumomomomomomomomo, a Japanese racehorse that recently claimed its maiden win, was dubbed “the horse that makes commentators cry” because of its tongue-twister name. The three-year-old mare claimed victory at Tokyo’s Oi racecourse a couple of weeks ago and has since become somewhat of a celebrity on Japanese social media. […]
Adelaide race caller Brett Davis was a plumber before he picked up the binoculars and the mike. Perhaps he should think about going back to the dunnies and pipes. This call was a shocker. Sometimes certain people just try to be too clever, and they fall flat on their face. Splat!
I have enormous respect for Chris Barsby. He is an excellent and always entertaining caller, and a brilliant judge of a photo finish, alongside Perth caller Richard Bell as the best in the land in any code. But even people who are top of the tree sometimes get it wrong, and by describing Mach Da […]
He’s a good judge this Vaughan Quirke. Gladys is a genius hey? The absolute benchmark. Try telling that to the people of NSW right now. You would start a riot. Form analysis doesn’t seem to be one of Mr Quirke’s skills. Consistency doesn’t either. A year ago he was wanting to turf David Fowler in […]
