Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
For those of us who don’t know a great deal about horse doping – which is most normal, good people – the revelations in the FBI drug prosecutions and trials are extremely instructive. In fact when you read them and think about a lot of things that happen here in the Southern Hemisphere – things […]
Illegally doping racehorses is animal abuse in the service of greed. Such corruption threatens the health of racehorses and undermines the integrity of the sport. Today, three defendants have been sentenced for their roles in perpetuating, and profiting from, the mistreatment of animals. The sentences each defendant received appropriately reflects the seriousness of […]
We’ve written quite a few times about Louis Grasso, the corrupt US vet who supplied illicit performance enhancing dope thousands of time to trainers over a decade or more, and was responsible for a whole lot of racehorse deaths along the way too. Louis the Sly got sentenced this week. We won’t be seeing him […]
So the RIB would follow him. And not walk into someone else’s place instead. Or so they think. I’d be checking the roof and the trees if I was them. What am I talking about? The person that dobbed Phil Burrows and Matt Anderson into the RIB. Or the the dupe they assumed didn’t know. […]
Last year the former HRNZ chief Ken Spicer went with the grub Matthew Anderson to a secret meeting with the current HRNZ chief Gary Woodham to talk about a way back into the sport for the drug dealer, con-man and woman bashing piece of shit. News of the meeting leaked to the media. They all […]
About 6 weeks ago the disgraced and disgraceful drug dealer and woman beater Matthew Anderson, aka Matthew Vanderklay – the very close friend and Bali holiday companion of Sydney based harness racing identity Jack ‘Turbo’ Trainer – applied for his license back. His supporters at the top level of Harness Racing New Zealand voted to […]
Former harness racing trainer Matt Anderson is a criminal and a woman basher who in July 2020 was found guilty in a judge alone trial of assaulting a woman and intentionally impeding her breathing by strangulation, which in other words means that the lowlife piece of shit bashed and choked the poor woman, in her […]
Louis Grasso first came across my radar screen when I began investigating Eclipse Award-winning owner Michael Gill’s Elk Creek Ranch in Pennsylvania in 2010. Gill, who had been the leading North American owner by wins and money earned in 2009 – the fourth time he led both categories – had assembled what I called a “Gang […]
In the past 14 days, Emma Stewart trained horses have competed in 38 pacing races in Victoria. Stewart has won 27 of these 38 races. Her winning strike rate is a barely believable 71.1%. During this two week period the Stewart stable has won $445 310 from these pacing races alone. She has won every […]
Have a read of this story that the US leading racing website the Paulick Report published yesterday. 4000 units of EPO, for just one trainer. The mind boggles. Don’t think that it doesn’t happen here, because it does. In fact it all starts in the Southern Hemisphere. Specifically Australia and New Zealand. If you don’t […]
