Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
For some strange reason the $1.50 favourite in the second race at Globe Derby yesterday Vapar Jack galloped when its driver Gaita Pullicino drove it’s head into the mobile barrier arm just as it was about to release. I don’t understand it. When my mum used to give me a clip around the ear as […]
Lachie Manzelmann is a talented driver, but unfortunately he is a most reckless and dangerous one too, as he proved in the first race at Redcliffe last night. The further question is whether there is something else behind his crazy drive in this race as well. There were two chances in the first last night, […]
Lochinvar Art was a mighty run first up for a year in the Shepparton Gold Cup. Only Jack Callaghan beat him. Jack Callaghan is not a horse, he’s a 20-year-old driver. Even at that tender age I would go so far as to say that after this superlative drive on Spirit of St Louis to […]
The tote staff were busy at Dubbo last night they say https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/DUC14012208.mp4 Garry Edwards is a sprightly young chap of age 74 who is just starting to hit his straps as a harness racing trainer/driver. Up until last night at Dubbo young Gaz had driven 20 winners in the 21st century, none on the same […]

Cyril Small is the living embodiment of racing. He is the reason we all get up early every morning (or in yours truly’s case, go to bed) with hope in our hearts and dreams of unbridled success. The C was a battling trier who met Vo and struck it lucky, and it changed both their […]
General Stewards questioned driver Angus Garrard (Its Super Easy NZ) regarding the tactics adopted on the gelding in particular from the 800m after racing in a one out four back position the gelding then raced on the marker line leaving the 800m as a result of moving to this position the horse failed to gain […]
$2.00 + $61.00 + $34.00 = $97.00 $97.00 – $12.00 = $85.00 $100 per bet x 12 = $1 200.00 Profit on investment = $8 500.00 Interest rate = 708.33% No, this is not a Ponzi scheme or a con. It is how much money you have made backing the 1 in 4 Kid since she returned […]
Hello sailor. What long arms you’ve got. Just for a joke and because in a strange way I like him, I rang Mario Borg this morning intending to seek a comment about the rock n’ roll Aunty Gaita rort at Globe Derby last night, knowing full well that I wouldn’t get one, or not the […]
An eagle-eyed reader has just pointed out an error in my earlier story about David ‘Slasher’ Moran. Slasher didn’t just get done for whip abuse in Group 1 races seven and nine at Melton last Friday, he got fined for a whip offence in the Group 1 race six too, the Group 1 3YO Vicbred […]
