Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A lot of people are asking serious questi0ns about Blake Shinn’s ride on Propice in the 7th race at Seymour on Wednesday, the Victorian Stewards included. They have opened and then adjourned an inquiry into the ride, to give them time to review the betting sheets. That makes sense. Shinn’s ride doesn’t. Propice is trained […]
If Jackson Murphy didn’t ride Moreton Bay stone cold dead in the 2nd race on the TAB card at Home Hill on Thursday then I’m not here. It was a hook job of epic Dale Evans proportions. Moreton Bay blew from $2.35 out to $4.00, and wasn’t trying at all. Murphy put the handbrake on […]
If you ever want to see a beautiful ride then watch James McDonald’s steer on the winner Adefill in race 9 in Hong Kong yesterday. It’s the horse in the grey with the pink cap.

Nic Me Some was heavily backed to win the 4th race at Mackay on Saturday. That was bad luck for those who backed it, because it’s jockey Dale Evans determinedly didn’t want it to win. I wonder who paid him to hook it? Harsh words you say? Then watch this and keep your eyes on […]
There is a vicious rumour sweeping racing that soon to retire race riding legend Damian Oliver may be $2.5 million lighter in his pension fund than he expected. The word is that someone close to him and linked in to his business dealings may have misreported the funds that Oliver has available to him, and […]
The hot gossip out of Victoria is that the much vaunted fairtytale romance between jockeys Ben Melham and Jamie Kah is over, almost as soon as it began. Ms Kah is said to have moved on start a romance with a well-known trainer, or a co-trainer to be precise. And it’s not Peter Moody. That’s […]
