Brett Cook – Cookie – is the Chairman of the Gold Coast Turf Club, the one that after the latest debacle on the weekend should be changing it’s name to the Bundall Sand Course Club. Cookie is the man to fix it though. He owns and runs Coastal Tipper Hire, the leading earthmoving company on […]
An incredible sum of $46.25 million has been spent on the Gold Coast track reconstruction and lights project. To date we have had 5 race meetings on the new turf track, and none under lights. And all we get is this crap below. They sand track at Gympie races better. So much for Nevesh Ramdhani […]
We have been telling you since December that the Gold Coast track is Friar Tucked. It gives us no pleasure at all to be proven right. How does a brad new multi-million dollar track throw up like this? Because it hasn’t constructed properly and is rooted, that’s how. The track looked like a cow paddock, […]

What the hell is going on with this inside training track at the Gold Coast? It’s semi-underwater, after less than half an inch of rain in the past 24 hours. https://www.eldersweather.com.au/history/qld/bundall Is the course proper drainage such that all the water pours over to the inside, or has the training track just been done on […]
The trials on the B Grass track at the Gold Coast this morning have been decimated by scratchings, with 18 of the scheduled 35 runners pulled out. This has left two of the trials on the B Grass with only a single runner in them. I hope their trainers weren’t aiming for a good hit […]
