Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Think I’ve come to that realisation with the ‘Red Hots’. I love the trots and always have but there comes a time where it needs to be said out loud. Not so much on a site like this but in the general media. Of course they are bound by the rules not to say anything […]
The Miracle Mile field is set with only the barrier draw to cap it off before they fly off the gates. They will fly and this could be the fastest mile we have ever seen. I have no objections or criticisms of how they reached the final field either. ARCHIE – There weren’t too many […]
A great trainer once told me that “once I hand over the reins, it’s out of my hands”. This was after I suggested the driver of my horse was better off with a monkey in the cart to put it politely. I actually think there was something more sinister at play outside the control of […]
Keith from QLD is on a roll. We might as well enjoy it while we can. I wasn’t going to talk of the Chariots because it isn’t a grand circuit race. It is though one of the best races on the calendar, so I will make an exception. This year’s 4yo crop was as good […]
Keith from Queensland has sent through a text marked urgent. It’s about Cracker’s drive in the Shepparton Gold Cup. Here is what the clown says. Keith says no way in the world that was a boat race. Nathan Jack drove the best against a bunch of tired hacks, so far as group horses races go. […]
Keith’s on a roll. Good on him too. I love it, even if the folk from the Canterbury Plains don’t. What would they know about great Australian racing anyway? Blood hell, they eat fishing bait (whitebait) and reckons it’s beautiful. Yeah, prawns heads are too I’m sure, not that I’ve ever tried them or ever […]
Keith from QLD chimes in fresh from a Xmas spell up fishing off the Cape. He’s not real happy with Gaita. I don’t normally watch Globe Derby trots but I was bored and had Sky on yesterday so I did, and I saw what in my opinion was good ol’ Gaita trying a bit too […]
Now I have crack at Gaita on a regular basis, so my Pullino slagging form is pretty good. But this time I am sticking up for in defense to Keith’s claims. It’s a two horse race, with Gaita’s at $1.65 and Alan Cronin’s one driven by Corey Johnson at $2.15 and double figures the rest. […]
Keith from QLD is fast becoming more popular with the readers that our regular author. Here he chimes in with some strident criticism of online bookmakers commitment to responsible gambling, as some sage advice about how it’s all just a great big rort. When you see the little message at the bottom of the corporate […]
Keith from QLD makes his literary debut, and gives it to Weir and co with both barrels Except it was three horses caught on police cctv this so called great horseman was beating the bejesus out of with a poly pipe and shocking them with a jigger at full pelt whilst on the treadmill. Anybody […]
