Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Carter Dalgety got Republican to the front before Leap To Fame last night in the Kilmore Cup, but then when Larry came a lookin’ he catted it and handed up. Dalgety had obviously seen what happened to Kingman when his bubble burst late in the Cranbourne Cup after parking the champion and trying to outstay […]
We warned you in our story yesterday that Don Hugo was a risk against Himynameisjeff at Menangle last night. It didn’t quite pan out exactly as we envisaged, thanks to the genius of the superstar junior driver Jye Coney, but the result certainly did. Apologies to his adoring owner Tony Licastro, who has reaped great […]
Cherries On Top was probably a false favorite at $2.25 to win race 6 at Albion Park yesterday. The filly was drawn well in 2 but is a slow beginner, and was up in class. But based on her two recent wins at Redcliffe punters had a right to believe that she would be driven […]
The last time Republican Party raced against Leap To Fame in the NZ Free For All, his driver Carter Dalgety – the most talented young reinsman since Dexter Dunn – got to the lead first but then handed up. He couldn’t catch him down the straight. It’s pretty hard to when Larry is roaring home […]
Archie Jett Turnbull only knows how to drive horses one way. Go forward. He shows absolutely no tactics when he drives. The only time he does show some tactics is when there are other Nathan Turnbull trained horses in the same race and they team drive. His drive at Young tonight on Holme Boy is […]
I am totally confused by Cam Hart’s drive in this race, the 3rd at Cranbourne on Saturday night. Bewildered in fact. Cam Hart was aboard the heavily backed $1.75 favorite Major Art. It sat behind the leader in the perfect trail. When the sprint lane opened up Hart took it, and if you’d backed Major […]
A lot of men see a girl with eyes like this and go to water. Not Nathan Jack. He sits on their back, peels off, and does them late, fast and hard. The way he drives is like sex in a cart. Cool and calm, then so hot he is on fire. Just watch this […]
Nathan ‘Cracker’ Jack is a genius of a driver. But no-one ever accused him of being honest. On Saturday night at Melton he proved both. Keith from QLD had the quaddie going 1300 times one out coming into the last leg, which wasn’t hard because the first 3 winners were the odds on faves Jilliby […]
A stud quarterback is the best playmaker in the NFL, someone like Joe Montana, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning or Brett Favre. The best of the best. When it comes to harness racing drivers Luke McCarthy is the stud. He showed it again in the Shepparton Cup last night. McCarthy didn’t just out-drive Grant Dixon, he […]
To the best of our knowledge the author Nick Butterworth is no relation to Copy That’s owner Merv Hi mate Can’t agree re Grant Dixon drive He didn’t go inside a marker He touched it no more than you would the old style wooden hub rail I haven’t looked but I would be fairly sure […]
