Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
These are the clouds swirling above the Gold Coast race track this morning. Thursday’s rescheduled Magic Millions is under a huge cloud. Pardon the pun. The unmitigated disaster still has a long way to way to run. Will they race the Millions in 3 days time? You’ve be a brave punter to back Yes.
The beach was safer than the track, and in better condition too This is the Stewards vision of the 2nd race on the aborted Magic Millions day, the last one run before they called the whole thing off. Look at this goddamn track. Those clods being thrown up could have taken out a horse or […]
It’s not often we agree with Robbie Waterhouse, because in our previous relationship with him we formed the view that he was a tight arse, manipulating K. Hunt who only wanted to know you if there was something in it for him, and if you kissed his arse like the smart arse ‘expert’ Twitter commentator […]
What you see in the picture comes from the widely read primary producers bible, the Farmers Online website. Every farmer in the nation checks their weather forecasts here, for their livings depend on knowing when the rain is coming, and none of them trust the BOM. https://www.farmonlineweather.com.au/long-range-forecast/28-day-rain/qld/southeast-coast We are being told a great lie right […]
This is the official release from Racing QLD. I am confused. Is this reality or spin? The Magic Millions meeting was postponed due to wet weather and poor visibility following 14mm of unforeseen rain since 3.00am. Race meetings don’t get cancelled because of a tiny 1.4cm of rain falling on a good track over the […]
As you can clearly see from the information published by the racing bible RISA, the Gold Coast track manager Nevesh Ramdhani made the very ill advised decision to dump 44mm of irrigation – water – on the track in the 7 days leading in to todays aborted meeting. That’s 2 inches of water, applied to […]
Gold Coast track curator Nevesh Ramdhani suspects a rogue sprinkler was partly behind Saturday’s debacle, which saw the Magic Millions meeting called off after just two races. Ramdhani, who says he is not 100 per cent sure what caused a wet spot on the turn to appear on Saturday morning, says he was let down […]
Someone from the Gold Coast Turf Club – my guess is Nevesh Ramdhani – arrives at the track at the crack of dawn to inspect it. Ramdhani – who has dumped 44mm of water from the infield pond onto the track over the previous few days – finds to his horror that the area of […]
We’ve just heard the Magic Millions has been rescheduled to Thursday More to follow …
Whatever you do, don’t ever back a winner of the Magic Millions 2YO at Ballarat in the Classic at the Coast. In fact, don’t back them ever, for with the exception of one Tony McEvoy trained Adelaide specialist, they are all bloody useless. Cusack (2021) hasn’t won a race since Ballarat. Last time out he […]
