Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Mail just in is that Jason Grimson’s horses positive swab in Victoria is to …. … drum roll …. Morphine! Bet you London to a Brick on that he will claim its contamination in the feed. Poppy seeds for sure. Funny how it only got into his feed bag though and no-one else’s. And that […]
Remember we tipped you a couple of months ago that one of Jason Grimson’s horses had thrown a positive swab? Well the jungle drums are beating louder and louder that its true, although presently we have been unable to confirm it. We don’t what horse it, is or what the substance or drug may be, […]
In May 2024 NSW trot trainer Mark Callaghan’s horse The Cid threw a positive swab to harpagoside after winning a $100 000 race at Newcastle. It was Callaghan’s second substance rule breach offence. He was fined $3000. In the same year NSW trot trainer Michael Carroll had one horse throw three positives to harpagoside and […]
SA harness trainer/driver Luke Alcorn has a far from enviable record of offending against the drug rules at the trots. Alcorn has been convicted of turning up to race while fried on meth four times since 2013. His drug use was so heavy that in 2014 he even contaminated one of his horses too, causing […]

I might have been too dismissive of Pete from Parkes opinion yesterday about Jett Turnbull driving a lot of winners trained by his father because they are juiced up. Two Different Opinions About Jet Planes In fact after watching the win of Centrefire in race 6 at Young last night, I am sure that I […]
Tarrant posted this after I wrote a story a few months back imploring his ‘friends’ to help get him off the gear. I’ve known plenty of glass pipe jockeys in my time, and understand how the chemical crap snaps their synapses and f**ks their brain, so I didn’t take it personally. Even if I had, […]

Understanding how these drug categories are regulated can give horse owners greater confidence in the safety, efficacy, and reliability of the medications their veterinarian prescribes. Pioneer Drugs: The Path to FDA Approval Pioneer drugs are the original, FDA-approved animal health products brought to […]
There is a real curious case that the NZ Racing Integrity Board (RIB) are dealing with right now. It involved the former Commonwealth Games weightlifter turned one time jockey cum trainer Cody Cole, who quite amazingly it transpires has almost 100 horses under his care. Cole took a bunch of horses to trackwork at Matamata […]
