Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
A month or so back we tipped you off that a couple of trot drivers had been caught with prohibited substances in their systems after without notice drug testing was conducted at a Wagga race meeting. Drug Scandal Rocks the Riverina One of them was leading Riverina reinsman Blake Jones. The substance concerned was cocaine. […]
Paul Fitzpatrick won seven straight NSW trot training premierships in the 2000’s, and has won multiple Group 1 races. He is no mug when it comes to the training caper. But today Jason Grimson made him look like one. Fitzpatrick had trained the pacer Lexus Lou throughout its 27 start career and won 3 races […]
Seaton Grima is a genius. A fortnight ago he gets this aged 8-year-old gelding named Springield Affair that has had 207 starts for its previous trainers Kevin Von Duve and Peter Rixon. Von Duve has been training for a long time and goes alright. Rixon has trained 666 winners, has NSW premiership trophies on the […]
We’ve just got news that a prominent Riverina trot driver has been outed for either 3 or 6 months – I can’t remember because the knockout drugs I got at the take it and swallow party at the hospital today are still in my system, and they cause temporary amnesia – after they threw a […]
Riverina trainer Norm Diebert Snr must have achieved some sort of record as the oldest trainer ever to have a horse throw a positive to cobalt, after the substance above the threshold of 100 micrograms per litre in urine was detected in the urine sample taken from his pacer CHANCETOWIN following its win in race […]
The Emma Stewart of Sydney harness racing Jason ‘Jill’ Grimson had a huge night out at Menangle yesterday winning all four races his stable contested, and driving three of them too. Unusually most of Grimson’s winners were at big odds. $13.00, $11.00, $6.50 and $1.33 they started. Their were some very weird runs by some […]
Wanna see a red hot and burning team drive? Look no further than race 2 at Newcastle last night. Seaton Grima trains two horses in the race, no 1 Springfield Affair driven by Josh Gallagher, and no 2 Happy Too Ya driven by the trainer himself. The 1 has been backed from $2.20 into $1.75, […]
I don’t want to seem like I am somehow lining Jason Grimson up for shots, because I am not. Never met the bloke, couldn’t give a Friar Tuck about him, all I care about is the trots and it running straight so that dumb mugs not in the know like me and most others can […]
Take a look what happened in race 8 at Young last night. The leader – no 8 in the pink saddlecloth – galloped for about half the length of the straight. It got the photo, but had to be relegated or disqualified. And given the blanket finish it should have gone back to 5th, if […]
I Think I’m Getting Old and Going Mad Archie I’m with you on the Sydney protest. Dismissed. Zac Lloyd’s horse initially laid out when he had the whip in his right hand earlier in straight, he put the whip in his left hand and then the horse laid in. Lloyd pulled the whip back through […]
