Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
So I am confused. What’s actually wrong about this? I publish and broadcast allegedly contemptuous, unseemly, improper, insulting, and offensive language about Stewards, race club committee members, controlling bodies and their members and other racing officials all the bloody time. My freedom of speech is not impinged, I just can’t be a licensee if I […]
Race 1 – Gold Cup (Heat 1) The locals look to be up against it here, with the three southerners Queen Redeem, Knicks Bale and Line Of Quality dominating the top three spots in the betting. Line Of Quality is the early favourite and the NSW trained winner of 14 from 27 is always hard […]
She’s A Pearl is an outstanding greyhound that has won 11 and been placed in another 6 of her 21 career starts. Her owners J Lannutti and C O’loughlin are even more outstanding. The pair have pledged that half of every dollar the dog earns during her career will be donated to the Red Nose […]
There were seven starters in the seventh race at Warrugal on cup night tonight. All of them were trained by Andrea Dailly. She got the trifecta of course, and the first four. And the first seven too. It’s almost like Tasmanian harness racing. Except Ben Yole would have found a way to get beat.
Trainer John Catton, dressed in his handler’s outfit for next week As predicted, the Black Flash blitzed them in his heat of the Golden Ticket tonight. The dream of my two great childhood mates The Eagle and JC is alive and kicking like Hasim El-Masri. Little Byrnes is into the $60 000 four x match […]
The Golden Ticket is one of Queensland’s best and most interesting greyhound race series. It starts tonight with 4 heats of 4 dogs, each of them the top 16 in Queensland. They start from boxes 1, 3, 5 and 7. The winner and runner-up in each of the 4 heats goes through to the Shoot […]
Clive Churchill, the Little Master. Barry Muir, Queensland rugby league great. Henry Holloway, ditto. Lionel Morgan, the first indigenous Australian to win representative selection. John Catton, father of JC. It’s wasn’t a bad line up was it? Like father like son hey? Both triers, both doers, both winners.
Five years ago the prizemoney for winning a race at the Capalaba dogs on a weekend was $630 per race, across the board. The winner got $441, the second home got $126, and third got $63. Fourth to eighth got nothing except the thrill of racing. As of January the 1st 2022 – in five […]
Lyn Noble is the wife of the disgraced former trainer Tom, the warned off for life owner/operator of the illegal unlicensed track at which wrongsters used to live bait, the one in the horrific Four Corners documentary. Tom and Lyn Noble profited from live baited blood, and became reasonably wealthy from it too. If they […]
The QLD Stewards now led by Terry Bailey’s boy Wade Hadley rock up unannounced to a dog trainer’s place the other day. They demand that the trainer give them a blue cooler bag. It’s not drugs that they are after, because there are none in the bag. What they are after is a wallet that’s […]
