Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Can anyone on this earth please explain Nathan ‘Cracker’ Jack’s drive on Captain Tom to us so that we can all understand it, because right now it’s a mystery as deep as Loch Ness and twice as deep again. Have a look at it first. Captain Tom and Cracker start from gate 3. https://www-harness-org-au.akamaized.net/nsw/EYC17052413.mp4 What […]
Luke McCarthy was put out for 7 days for causing interference to Crusader Miss and knocking her out of Gold Tiara contention via his drive on Kima. Kima’s the one coming around three-wide, Crusader Miss is the horse pushing one-off the fence as he comes. Did Luke cause the interference or not? It’s difficult without […]
There were six races at Port Pirie. The winners of only two of them were post race swabbed after their victories. Those two winners swabbed were trained by Ryan Hryhorec (1) and Leah Holman (1). None of Aaron Bain’s three winners was asked to give a post-race sample. That’s a bit of a worry, for […]
Greyhound racing identity Vince Tullio (pictured above) is a man of rather questionale repute, there can be no doubt about that. Over the years he has been embroiled in controversies about the export of dogs to China for the illegal racing trade, the kidnapping of greyhounds from local Chinese connected trainers who hadn’t paid their […]
In the last week, Rolling Stone magazine has said about Donald Trump that he has become the mother of all pop-culture villains, a globally despised cross of Dominique Strauss-Kahn, Charlie Sheen and Satan. No one wants to be seen as some kind of cartoon villain. Is it any wonder then, that Danny Nikolic has sought to explain his own […]
Watch the horse out the back in the yellow colors, the one drawn on the outside of the 2nd row from the start, the mark they call the unruly. This is supposed to be a standing start. For that horse it turned out to be a flyer. Since when were they allowed to run at […]
Emma Stewart trained four odds-on favorites at Menangle last night. Extraordinarily not one of them was pre-races swabbed. Admittedly her Oaks winner Very Pretty ($1.09) and Queen Elizabeth II Mile runner-up Ladies in Red ($1.75) had been in the retention barn up to 2 hours before their races, but to imagine that stops a determined […]
A picture says a thousand words. That mean a video says a hundred thousand. I wish Chynna was my daughter. Not. Her poor parents. Say no more. We got rich yesterday 🤑 head to the link in my bio for my tips 😘 pic.twitter.com/fJNKM3uWhd — Chynna (@chynna_marston) May 2, 2024
When the rider of a winner fails to weight in the horse has to be disqualified from the race, no ifs no buts. It’s been the way for 2 centuries. Bankrollbenny won the last race at Devonport on the 24th of April. The horse’s jockey Craig Newitt didn’t weigh in as required. As such there […]
New Zealand harness racing is quite distinct from that in Australia, in that the Kiwis put on races restricted to amateur drivers at TAB meetings, whereas over the ditch the amateurs are confined to driving in non-TAB races at the carnivals and shows, which given their skill levels – and with no knock to any […]
