Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
Hi Archie Hope you are doing well. Just wondering if Grace Panella and Brendan Flaherty share a farrier which could explain the possible meth contamination. Why has Flaherty been stood down and sentenced when his positive was months after Panella’s. (August V November)? Why hasn’t Panella also been stood down? Surely HRNSW aren’t playing favorites. […]
NSW trot trainer Brendan Flaherty has been disqualified for 2 1/2 years for presenting his filly Gisselle to race with methamphetamine in its system. It is an outrageous penalty. No-one actually dopes their horses with meth, because it is obvious they will throw a positive swab if they do, which means that Gisselle’s positive was […]
Liberty Smith is 29 years old but has only been riding for 5 months. In that short time she has ridden 22 winners from 147 rides, at a strike rate of 15%. Hollie Hull is 26 years old and has been riding for 4 years. In that time she has has 215 mounts and booted […]
The horse I am pointing at in the photo at the top is Churpel, and the race is the 1st at Scone on Sunday. You can see clearly that Churpel’s inside barrier has opened before the other horses gates flew, but it is why that is the issue. Have a look at the video below. […]

Greyhound trainer Cameron Scott has been fined $1500 by the NSW Greyhound Welfare Integrity Commission (GWIC) for sending Greens MP Abigail Scott a message telling her exactly what he thinks of her anti-dog racing policy position, in no uncertain terms and in language spoken and understood by those of us who go to the track. […]
Keayang Santiago had raced 57 times for trainers Margaret Lee (of Keayang Zahara fame), S Vasiliou, Luke Tabone, Jodie Quinlan and Matt Newberry and won just 6 races before it was sent north to the Bailey McDonough barn at Menangle. Since that happened a month ago its has won 2 from 3, and probably should […]
Harness Racing Nes South Wales paid correspondent Michael Dumesny wrote the words below that were published on the HRA website on Tuesday. I have never met or dealt with M. Dumesny, and have nothing against him at all. But what he writes in this story is absolute nonsense. For the simple reasons detailed in precis […]
Hi mate, Hope you are well. Sunday at Forbes, Race 7, Nathan Turnbull stablemates try to team drive to the point of desperation. Seven Tee Two comes to the death to pressure the leader, Always Adorned who had upset the plan of Sunset Jay Jay of leading. Turning for home, leader still going well, Seven […]
I am not far from alone in hating Saturday metropolitan meetings being run at provincial tracks, and today’s Hawkesbury card is the perfect example why they shouldn’t be allowed.
