Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Epitrenbolone is the metabolite of Altrenogest, meaning it’s the same thing Isn’t it ironic that in the same fortnight that Alligator Al takes QRIC and Racing QLD to town and gets the Alligator’s disqualification overturned, the QRIC release it’s decision in the case of trainer Steve O’Dea for exactly the same thing, an Altrenogest positive, […]
https://www.harness.org.au/racing/fields/race-fields/?mc=CR121222 Go race 3 on this program. Hit replay. Then skip forward to the 1min 52 second mark and push play. Watch the driver of the horse on the leader’s back, the one in the pink. In particular watch him in the straight. Do you reckon he tries to win or lose? If your answer […]
Well just like it was with the Birdsville jigger. we broke the story about Mitchell Hutchings absolutely disgraceful attack on an innocent horse with a hammer, and Hutchings has any problem with that then he can come and talk to us direct and we will sort it out, one way or the other. Hitting a […]
Now I am not a lag by nature, and don’t believe in dogging people at all. But when they are a pair of K. Hunts that I don’t know who go around smashing horses with hammers I reckon the rules are different, particularly when I live too far away from them to have a quiet […]
When Tosel Basil died in December 2018 racing.com – presumably relying on advice from either Ozzie Kheir or Darren Weir – reported that the horse had been spelled after a disappointing rub in the Mooney Valley Cup. That race was run on the 26th of October 2018. Yet on 30 October – four days later […]
Five minutes after we published the previous story about Ryan Wiggins ride on Silver Galaxy in the 2nd race at Doomben today, the Stewards Report went up. Wiggins got away with knocking the horse in the green over completely. WTF? The Stipes say that the horse raced greenly and ducked in of it’s own accord. […]
The question about Spirit of St Louis’ run in the ID 22 Final is not just why it went so bad. It is why after its atrocious performance in Round 3 that the Stewards even let it run at all. Spirit went like a busted arse in that final heat. He sat 1-1 and had […]
The Tassie thing involved the jockey Ismael Toker, and was a running and handling charge. We will never know if he was good for it or not, due to the absolute incompetence of the stipes. You see down in Tasmania there is a local rule that says that inquiries must – MUST – be handled […]
This minor infringement fine issued to Nathan ‘Cracker’ Jack for cheating in the 3rd and final round of the ID22 Trotting heats is both outrageous, and a clear example of how the stewarding in Victoria is on the nose. Cracker’s horse Always Ready was drawn in gate 2, directly behind the $151 shot Teetreetommy, which […]
Archie Why hasn’t Gerald Ryan been charged or or barred from racing his horses in Victoria? The racing integrity unit has conducted its interviews with his former employees and let’s say just one employee said he was assaulted isn’t that enough for him to be barred from VIC and stewards to reopen the investigation? What […]
