Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
There are some funny rumours floating around about the propriety of the ownership of the John Singleton slot in the Eureka. I cannot vouch for this, other than to say that the two unconnected people who told me about it can. They say that there is a silent 2/3rd’s share holder in the slot. The […]
Benji Marshall was born in Whakatane in the North Island of New Zealand, where he lived until he lived until he got offered a rugby league scholarship in Queensland, Australia. He then lived in the Gold Coast where he attended Keebra Park high school. After school he moved to Sydney to play for the Wests […]
As far as Victoria Harness racing goes I’ve sat back and been listening to interviews, had some discussions with people that know what they are talking about too. What it does highlight and Archie rightly pointed it out in one of his articles is that HRV is has less income coming in i.e the government […]
When we bid for a slot in the TAB Eureka we promised to use it as a chance to take the sport outside of its bubble. That’s the very reason we approached Charles. He’s not just a sporting superstar and celebrity, he’s one with a genuine love of harness racing and he’s the perfect fit. […]

Her career ended in 2005 after a horrific accident on the track at Carrick. Sadly in 2017 Sharyn died. It’s not very respectful having her name published on […]
The ABC expose of Ben Yole’s nefarious activities is the biggest scandal in harness racing for a decade. And it has only just begun. Yole’s animal welfare abuses are the subject of episodes in the locker that will be released over the coming days and weeks. His abuses of humans will feature too. This is […]
George Fiacchi was appointed by the SA Government as its general to launch a war against Globe Derby. Fiacchi’s mission was to take on the club and take over their SA trot citadel, then strip it bare and sell everything that it owned to the favoured bidder. We told you this three years ago, and […]
See the name of the company that got given the Eureka website job? Paul Kelly Creative. It’s a common name Kelly, so of and in itself it wouldn’t mean anything. Maybe it doesn’t. But maybe it does. Paul Kelly Creative is based in Geelong. Guess where Andrew Kelly grew up? Geelong. Guess where they both […]
