Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
THE RULES 167. (1) From the time the sprint lane becomes available for racing purposes, the leading horse closest to the inside running line and any horse in advance of and outside that horse or having passed that horse on its outside shall not enter any part of the sprint lane. (2) In the event of the […]
What you see above is the starting point penalty as detailed in the QRIC Penalty Guidelines for a breach of rule AHHR.167(1), which is entering the Sprint Lane. As you can also see there is no starting point penalty for a breach of rule AHRR.167(2). That is because the two parts of the rule […]
Peter McMullen is a protected species. On Saturday night he was protected from a potential 4-week or greater suspension that would have sidelined him from driving for almost the entire Winter Carnival. McMullen was protected by being charged with the wrong offence, or more correctly by being charged with only half of the correct offence. […]
We saw in the previous story how Pete McMullen cheated in The Hayden. But did Grant Dixon cheat too? It sure looks like it. Watch this slow motion replay of when the favored Team Dixon runner Cool And Classy driven by Trista got out from the pocket it was stuck in 3-back the fence. Trista […]

The husband and wife pair’s legal team driving tactics succeeded in getting their heavily backed runner Attachment $11.00 […]

We have recently highlighted a number of curious (to say the least) drives by leading QLD reinsman Peter McMullen, and here in race 6 at Albion Park yesterday is another one. McMullen is driving the Kiwi import La Miki, who is having its first start in Australia and has blown in the betting from $2.40 […]
Watch the driver of the leader in the inside Ryan Bell. See what he does to the horse behind him. Whack! Take that son! I suspect Mr Bell may be going for an unplanned holiday in the morning. Head butting horses just isn’t on.
Crystal Hackett is one of New Zealand’s most promising young drivers. She is also one of the bravest. It looked like the little champ actually enjoyed this ride. Crazy brave Crystal. Don’t try this at home.
What the hell was Peter McMullen doing here in the 1st race at Albion Park on Mister Charles? Mister Charles was the 2nd favorite in the race. The leader My Ultimate Buddha was even money. Still Rockin in the death had been the medium of heavy support, backed from $13.00 into $7.00. Buddha led but […]
